Of course. And from …
Of course. And from my experience as a nurse, they are an awful insurance company notorious for taking way too long to pay legitimate claims. The Urology group I worked for dropped them as an insurance plan they accepted because of being slow to pay.

Republicans are not quoting that, are they?
Even the Lewin Group’s President wants to distance himself from the way his firm is being represented.

In the Washington …
In the Washington Post:

The firm’s vice president, John Sheils, told the Post that if a public option is implemented, “People would indeed lose [the private plans] they have, but they might very well be better off.”

The Lewin group …
The Lewin group made a report the Republicans mention, had 180.5 people switch to a cheaper (and same quality public plan). What politicians forget to mention is that the SAME scenario showed REDUCED ADMINSTRATIVE COSTS of 36.5%.

The report does not take into account that insurance companies will have to adapt and stop treating people like lemons and cherries if they want to remain in the industry.

In any other industry, officers of this companies would be prosecuted even criminally.

Way off base. Juses …
Way off base. Juses did say to give to charity for the needy. Not to the lazy. Not the one that have money and take a $5000 vaction and want everyone lese to pay for their health care. billion are given to charity for the needy every year. More in the USA than any other country.
Don’t use the and lord and saviour as an excuse for your laziness. Don’t use the lord and saviour as reason to force socialism on a nation. The lord and saviour wants man to give from the heart not by force of the gov.

SEIU and ACORN are of the same organization. And have one goal, to turn The United States to a socialist nation.

WOW! I love your …
WOW! I love your comments!

They are so refreshing and true!

America has become a very selfish country and the GOP is behind much of it! They drive lies and hate into many weak minded under educated people via FOX News so that they actually vote against their own well being!!! Thye use their religion against them as they know they can use it for votes & then help the wealthy once in power.

SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
