2. "Other" (while the bill is helpful to some, it is harmful to others)
It will force all adult Americans to buy ins. company products. I don't know what, if any subsidies will apply. But even the working poor will have trouble coughing up $20 extra to pay for something, not to mention co-pays, etc.

Forcing all adults Americans to buy a product, without providing some sort of non-ins. co. product is harmful to the citizens of this country.

3. So the cheerleaders have something else to bitch about?
No, that's not my reason, but it makes as much sense as the ones in this shitty poll.

5. Hello, I am Susan Bayh (Evan's wife) and I sit on the board of WellPoint
Evan and I want very much the Lieberman/Obama bill to pass so that we can continue to enrich ourselves at the expense of the American people.

Signing off.

16. It's like fans for a team down 42 points in the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter
calculating how they can get 6 touchdowns.

Oh and the first and second string quarterbacks went of the field on a stretcher.

19. They couldn't even let a little weak one pass
If it was slightly succesful it would have been the death of the goal, feed the American people to Aetna and Cigna.

20. Now now... if Joey hears that, he's liable to demand a blowjob a month before he'll vote for cloture
