Explaining why he voted against including members of Congress in the public plan:
The public option will be so bad,
I don't want my family to be in it.— Sen. Judd Greg
Explaining how to cut health care costs:
Maybe you're better off not having the
surgery, but taking the painkiller.— President Barack Obama
On the Blue Dogs:
They're nothing but corporate tools,
defending special interests.— Paul Krugman
Defending his failure to read the health care bill:
What good is reading the bill if it's a thousand pages and
you don't have two days and two lawyers to find out what
it means after you read the bill?"— Democratic Congressman John Conyers (D-Mich.)
On the latest fad:
ACOs are HMOs in drag.
— Anonymous head of a major health insurance company
If we are voting on these, my favorite is judd Greg’s.
I vote for anonymous.
I vote for take-an-aspirin-and-forget-the-surgery Obama.
And this is what we have running our Country!
Thank god for the Blue Dogs
