"So now you guys know, that when Obama talks about his no charge Public Health Plan for everybody 'like they have it in Europe', he and his supporters lie through their teeth."

Since he has never said that, what does that make your statement?

Oh. A lie.

Obama would LOVE to have health care "like they have in Europe", but, he's got this wacky, inefficient, expensive, employer-based system already in place. So, he works with what he has.

Unlike in Europe, we didn't plan a system from the jump, but just let our patchwork for-profit horror evolve.

Uh......Obama has never said it would be for free. And that's only one aspect of the reform for which he is looking.
