Last week we heard the Republicans and their fellow travelers claim our President insulted doctors when he mentioned that doctors might choose options based on reimbursement rather than what is best for the patient. Senator Grassley today said the very same thing as an excuse for his double talk about President Obama wanting “death panels” to pull the plug on Grandma! In the video below he now back tracks on his statement concerning “pulling the plug on Grandma” and at the 2:20 mark makes the same remark about doctors that President Obama made. (See Video below)
Yet the Democrats in their masochism continue to strive for “Bipartisanship”. To hell with bipartisanship! Senator Grassley should have educated his constituents when he held his town hall meeting. Instead he continued the Republican Party lies about Universal Health Care being a conspiracy to pull the plug on Grand Ma. Apparently someone has pulled the plug on the blood flow to Senator Grassley’s brain!
Meanwhile I am sure Senator Grassley and his fellow travellers will be very happy to know that according to MSNBC millions of Americans now face shrinking Social Security checks! But then again in we must make our nation safe from Socialist programs like Social Security and Medicare! (See Video Below)
Democrats must realize that the Republicans are attempting to destroy Universal Health Care. Their fellow travellers, so called “Blue Dog Democrats” are growing fearful of loosing their insurance special interest contributions! When will Progressives stand up and fight back?
We need to kick some Republican butt and give these Blue Dog Democrats some testosterone to stand up for the Middle Class!

i agree with you 100%!! the republicans and the blue dogs are totally on the payroll of the insurance companies and they are trying to kill healthcare reform and we had better not let them do it!!so maybe what we progressives need to do is to march on washington just like the idiot tea baggers did!only we will be demonstrating for healthcare reform instead of against!it takes a special kind of stupidity for one to embrace the rightwing arguments against healthcare reform…i mean who is so moronic to actually believe that reform will bring death panels??!!i believe any working person, middle class or working poor that votes republican is an idiot!! so many republicans just don,t seem to care at all for the average citizens and their behavior since mr.obama took office has been totally despicable in every way regarding every issue!! they care only for the rich and big corporations!!i am also tired of rightwingers saying that carter was the worst president!!carter was no where near as much of a disaster as gw bush!!isn,t it a strange coincidence that ken lay of the infamous enron scandal was one of bush,s biggest campaign contributers going as far back as when bush was governor in texas?! then shortly after bush gets into office as president the enron scandal broke..strange!!very strange.was it any real surprise that shortly after bush took office we invaded iraq?!!i didn,t vote for bush either time he ran.i was afraid from the first day he took office and some people thought that was funny at the time…8 years later it is anything but funny!!
