Why Repugs and Blue Dog Dems fight health care

There is but one reason why Repugnicans all across the country, along with the nogoodnik Blue Dog Democrats, are fighting health care reform with every ounce of strength they have.

It has to do with who owns them. Anything they say relative to health care reform has to be considered in this light:

They are bought and paid for by the health care industry and by the drug companies. They are owned by those corporate entities.

The health care industry along with the drug companies are running scared. If Obama's health care plan is passed, they fear their unconscionable profits derived from the weak, the poor and the sick of our land will be curtailed, perhaps severely.

Thus, they are calling in their chits. They want payback. And the Repugnicans and Blue Dogs are only too willing to crucify health care reform on the cross raised by the health care industry and the drug companies. With nails molded from their 30 pieces of silver, and to fan the flames of their fiery need for power, they betray the American people once again.

Jacob they really are bought and paid for. I don't know why the mainstream media isn't pointing this out. Every time one of these guys speaks out against healthcare reform or calls for slowing down the process, they should tell the viewing audience exactly how much money that legislator has taken form the insurance and pharmaceutical lobbyists. I've also noticed that they are using statistics from the Lewin Group which is a joke because it's a subsidiary owned by UnitedHealth insurance company. The media just lets the get away with it, without question.

What is the problem, why doesn't everyone have the same coverage as the senators and congressman. If it is good enough for them, why not the rest of us.

I tried to post this a moment ago, so if this is a double post, I apologize.

Big Pharma spent 40 Million dollars so far on Lobby Efforts against Healthcare Reform. That is 3 Million Dollars a week. Since I have not seen a whole mess of commercials on the air, one wonders just exactly what or to whom these millions are going to?


Who is going on junkets this weekend?

We should all know this. Why would any industry spend hundreds of millions to defeat a bill before anyone knows what the final form will include?
