I didn't say he was spewing the Republican line, I said he was advocating the line of Republicans who actually had a line

True. Sorry about that. There some similarities, but also some massive differences though, in his line and theirs.

<<<Sadly, the "death panel" spewage seems to be a lot more popular than talking about alternatives among Republicans, near as I can tell. Moving away from employer based health insurance isn't unreasonable on the face of it, but it would require a more massive restructuring than anything currently being considered.>>>

People don't get it. There is no "perfect" solution. We can't get there from here.

I think Obama has heard enough from Republicans, blue dogs, and "spewers".

The time to listen is over.

He has to come up with a plan and go with it.
