Republican Elephant Doctor: See you next Tuesday. Patient: Wait. Is that my heart?? Doctor: I believe in doing the health care thing in increments. Tom: Save room on that table.
I still say that if the congressmen/women had to live with the type of insurance that the average American has to (or the lack there of) the whole mess would have been fixed LONG AGO! And while we are on the topic of “what congressmen conveniently vote for themselves so efficiently”, raises for these bozo’s ought to be something that has to be voted on by the people, don’t ya think??
The GOP has the goal of dismantling Medicare by going to vouchers, their answer for everything. They want to privatize Social Security but they will be more cautious after last attempt.
I love that one soundbite where this Senator says, “We need to come up with a way where people can gather savings and then use those savings to buy medical insurance.”
Then the president says, “Is that the type of health plan you want to have senator? How about if you were making $40,000 a year?
Well, Charles Schulz WAS a friend and admirer of Billie Jean King, but Ms. King always thought of Marcie as being more her portrait (Marcie’s detestation of sports notwithstanding…)
Never heard of see you next Tuesday as a problem, but then again I’ve never sent a text. I do remember “I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today” from Wimpy on the old Popeye cartoons.

Actually, they would prefer you die from a poisoned food supply (e.coli, HFCS, doesn;t matter…). But however you do, do it sooner than later.

That should be a firm requirement of any plan; Congress should be on it.
I want the health plan my Congress-critter has!
And yes, their pay should be on the public ballot!
