Healthcare

The Lynch Mob

Some wingnuts at a town hall meeting think the concept of lynching members of Congress is hilarious and awesome. Lynching because of healthcare reform. In other words, making healthcare affordable, portable and accessible is a lynching-worthy trespass.

Again -- and forgive the repetitive mentions of this concept -- but you know what the CBO is leaving out of its scoring of the healthcare bills? There will be considerable savings with the public option and Medicare when upwards of 50 million Republicans opt out of the system. Because -- noooo! -- there aren't any Republican wingnuts who will accept socialized health insurance like Medicare. Never! They'll all bail out of the system. And there certainly won't be any lynch-mob wingnuts signing up for the very affordable and convenient public option either. Massive savings to the tax payer, I'm sure.
