The really funny part is any true healthcare reform must being i the legislature and then move on to DHHS. Beleive it or not there is a way to provide health insruance for all citizens at an affordable cost, but it means getting government out of the business for all but those living under federal poverty standards. Just check out what Mitt Romney did for Massachusetts.

Check out what Mitt Romney did for Massachusetts? Do you *want* government forcing you to purchase health insurance?

While having some sort of insurance is common sense in this climate, I'm not sure I need government to compel me to do anything more than they already do.

What Mitt Romney did for Mass? They now have an insurance plan that is overwhelmed and underfunded, made it mandatory that you have insurance and if you don't then you get fined, that is the system for me!

Rep. Pin-Head is really quite an accomplished person.

She has been able to navigate an EXACT 180 degree course from reality.

Not 179 degrees. Not 181 degrees. A perfect 180.

ahhh, the fact that the Rep is a pin head is why she she continues to have her head firmly planted in the human counterpart where the fox parted company with the gingerbread man! That explains it.

LMAO. These people swear an oath to protect and uphold the very Constitution they don't understand, don't want to understand, and can't believe in. They don't get it.

Mel, you give them too much credit in thinking they know there is a ship named after our esteemed document.

More importantly Islander, Mass also has all of a 27% approval rate for the program they inflicted on everyone, and they now have waiting lists for essential services...

She's an idiot, like all of our so-called representatives who vote when they don't have a clue what they are voting for. We have Clueless Snowe, Clueless Collins, Clueless Pingree and Clueless Michaud. Thank God we only have 4 morons. Other states have so many more. Not sure if that is a good thing or not.
Hypothetical conversation.
How many pages to that amendment Madam Speaker?? Never mind, I didn't read the first 1200 anyways. How would you like me to vote?? Yes. Yes Master, errr Madam Speaker. What do my constituents think?? They want me to vote NO but they don't know any better. They didn't read the first 1200 pages either.

Earth to Pingree!! Just because you won the election does not mean you are free to forget about the rest of the folks that didn't vote for you! You are there to represent ALL OF US! Get with it!

She is an elitist. She is there to represent herself. She is so much smahtah and bettah than the rest of us. She will vote for what is best for us because only she knows what is best for us. Just ask her. It's her job.

Pingree said costs would go down if everyone had health insurance.

"I happen to be in the camp of great concern that, if we don't have a public option, we won't be able to reform the system," Pingree said.

What does she care what happens to rates. They don't and won't effect her. The taxpayers are on the hook for her health care.
