Has that smug sonofabitch McCain EVER had to pay for his own health care at any time in his life?
I love the Bernie. Love him.

Yeah, baby, now we're talking!
Somebody is listening. I hope the rest will get this simple message.

Nano,
NO!!! John McCain would have been covered under the Navy's health care as a child, when he was serving and when he retired. I got into the debate yesterday that TRICARE(Military Healthcare) is socialized medicine with a new soldier. I believe TRICARE would be the best model for the Public Option. It is everywhere, it has been covering embryos, infants, children and adults for years. The best part about TRICARE is that THEY(TRICARE) tell the hospital how much they are going to pay for services. I have been billed for the remainder of my hospital bills many times. With one phone call, TRICARE has handled the issue and CALLED ME BACK to tell me that the matter has been settled. I am sure TRICARE would love to have 50 million more members.
Bernie Sanders is the shit.

Thanks for posting this. Bernie is great. I wish he was my senator (unfortunately I'm stuck with Bayh...)

I just sent this link to Senator McCaskill my Senator from Missouri. Thanks Bob for giving us this great example of how our Senators need to be speaking with one another.

Exactly, Red. His health care was paid for by the government. His education was paid for by the government. He's a product of the socialist system. Tell him that, though, and he'd try to rip your liver out with that crazy Poltergeist Preacher Guy grill of his. Yet McCain would deny average Americans the very benefits he was given access to by virtue of his birth. He did not earn any of it. He, like George W. Bush, was born into it and is determined to keep the club as exclusive as possible.

If we had a couple dozen more Senators like B.Sanders, we might actually have a form of government resembling Democracy.
