Let me tell you a little story about a guy. Had a great job, made good money, good health insurance. Unfortunately, said job was in a different city than his wife, so eventually he decides living with his spouse and making less money means more than the alternative. Additionally, new city doesn't have a whole lot of opportunity for employment in his field, but he does find work. Health insurance? Nope. OK, no big deal, he can pay a substantial premium to get on his wife's plan. Going without is NOT an option, as said individual has had diabetes since a child, which requires expensive prescriptions and occasional specialist visits. Obviously he knows how to handle his illness and avoids wasteful trips to the doctor or specialist. Wife's insurance carrier responds with their quote, and the price's a doozy... but most importantly, NO COVERAGE FOR PRE-EXISTING DIABETIC CONDITION FOR 36 MONTHS. So the precise reason the individual bit the bullet and paid an overpriced premium is swept out the door because the insurance company has the right to deny coverage of the very issue that NEEDS coverage. How, pray tell, is that fair practice by the insurance carrier? You do realize that by arguing so strongly against healthcare reform you support insurance companies with skyrocketing profits that will sweep you away like a piece of stinky poo if they feel like your situation has a negative impact to their bottom line?

I urge all of you, before jumping to extreme conclusions like proposing impeachment of the President for taking measures to push the bill through, to read the below unbiased, no spin timeline. I for one believe the bill could be much better and has been forced/rushed through but overall it does contain measures which benefit the American society as a whole. Middle class Americans will not be affected tax-wise. Those damn commie illegals you all are crying about will have not gained a cent of benefit from this... but I'm sure you already knew that in your strong fact finding missions.

My bust on the grammer error. Not all of us have a Master's Degree like you. I hope this bill gets blown to pieces some how. Im betting because O'Dumbass has the numbers on his side he will get his wish on this bill and he can sleep better knowing he is going to ruin this country's economy even more. I feel for your friend with the diabetes im going through the same thing. Novolog three times a day and Lantus twice a day and Metformim twice a day. I am thankful that my insurance is awesome to have. Twenty years in the military actually paid off for something. Just curious what is your view on the abortion clause? My belief is that the taxpayer's money shouldn't be used for abortions. The only exception should be if the woman was raped or medically neccesary to have it done. If this clause does stay in this health care bill O'Dumbass has LIED AGAIN. Now thats a big suprise. I hope the Democrats enjoy the numbers while they have them hopefully when November arrives the wrath of the American public will be taken out on the Democrats. Hopefully Pelosi and Reid and Stupak are the first one's out of the door. I will also want to laugh in Stupak's face if O'Dumbass doesn't put the abortion clause in the bill.
