You are truly naive. There is a difference between a point of view and spin and I know what it is. I am still not sure how this health care bill will turn out, if it even passes, but I am not dumb enough to believe it will be paid for from savings. Do you believe that?, Apparently, from new reports that I have read all of the dems and almost all of the Reps on the committee that drafted this bill is against its provisions applying to them. Did Obama tell you that tonight? If he wants to give us information, he should be honest and tell us what the true cost is and give us enough information to ascertain how the bill will affect us individually. I don't know if you have health care, but can you honestly say that you understand how this bill will affect you, or how this bill will save money and keep the country from being bankrupted. Be honest you like Obama, so you are accepting of whatever he says. My philosphy is if they are politicians you can bet that 90% of what they say is lies and spin. I attended a health care forum given by our Senator. I asked him three questions and told him I would like him to point to the language in the bill that supported his answers. He could not do that with any of the questions I asked. He said he would get back to me. (I doubt that). There were at least two cases where he totally misrepresented what was in the bill. It was obvious to me he hadn't read it. lj
