yeah, they are politicians..so they are playing politics...how EMBARRASSING..
they are probably listening to their constituents who are calling and giving them a ear full..which is something the Democrats forgot that is their job..
I suppose next we will be hearing it is a right wing conspiracy..
the only one playing politics is "the Hugo Obama" is trying to play a dictator.

ZOMG IM POSTING POLITICAL STUFF
Republicans are pathetic. They have offered NOTHING in terms of a solution to our healthcare crisis. Absofuckinglutely nothing. The only thing they do is whine about Obama and call him a socialist. You even see on these boards. I'm still waiting to hear a solution to our problems. Hell, most of them hardly admit there is a problem.
What else do they have to offer though? No solutions and their party is going the way of the dinosaur.

bs is not spelled s-t-u-f-f...
in case you are still under your rock....there are dems out there that don't want this plan either, but oh noze, you go after republicans...guess what, i want them to fight against this, this is a bad plan...i forget the details but i read about a town where the doctors got together and made healthcare affordable, i think you bought into a general plan and that was it....all i hear about obama's plan is how EXPENSIVE it is....first he wouldn't raise taxes on it, now he is changing his stance because it is so expensive
then again, you're flaming liberal who loves to spend other people's money

i like these ideas:
4. Pay Employees for Healthy Habits
When Safeway CEO Steve Burd discovered that 70 percent of health care costs are linked to unhealthy habits, he created incentives that sent his employees scrambling for the produce aisle. "No one quarrels with the fact that if you have three speeding tickets a year, you're a higher risk and should pay more for auto insurance," says the 58-year-old fitness buff. "Our new plan encourages employees to live healthier, and if they don't, then they bear some of the costs." Perks include lower premiums for those who lose weight or quit smoking, free or cheap gym memberships, and a $1,000 health care reimbursement check to encourage cheaper choices like generics over name-brand drugs.
The payoff: The company's new plan has saved 13 percent so far, and employees who've signed up have saved 20 to 30 percent on their premiums. If other companies followed Safeway's lead, the country could save $600 billion to $800 billion.
....
9. Stop Unnecessary Treatments
We spend more than any other country on health care, but we're not healthier for it, partly because so much of the care delivered here is unnecessary, says Shannon Brownlee, author of Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer.
"The way to fight waste," she says, "is by reorganizing the way doctors and nurses and hospitals provide care. There are models out there of high-quality, low-cost care, and they include some of the most trusted names in medicine: the Mayo Clinic, Kaiser, and Intermountain Healthcare. These programs have a primary provider coordinate all the care. They understand that 21st-century medicine is a team sport. They also put a premium on analyzing the best available evidence and then ensuring that their doctors follow it."
The payoff: "Cutting out even half of the unnecessary health care in this country," Brownlee says, "would be enough to cover every citizen who is now uninsured."

You got that right.
I kept asking meme this morning what the GOP solution was; she kept coming back with "google it."
They don't have clue.
