Dean brought me into politics, through his inspiration I donated my time and money to get us into the White House, to get us these majorities, only to have them piss in my face at every opportunity.
Fuck that!
Lieberman is a fall guy and anyone who can't see it needs to get their head out of the fucking sand.
To quote the always awesome FDR "In politics nothing happens by accident If it happens you can bet it was planned that way ."
Dr. Dean ushered in the best state healthcare in the nation, Vermont has had the best healthcare every year since Dean implemented the program. The man knows a thing or two about reforming the system.
That the same fuckers that pushed this war on us are going to turn around and tell me that Dean is irrational for calling this bill out, all while letting Palin and Lieberman get away unscathed by shouting fucking "death panels" from the roof tops is complete and utter crap.
Why is it that progressives are the ones to bear the brunt of WH attacks? Real fucking smart assholes, especially since we are the ones that went door to door for you.
If you think for a second that I am going to be down with spending $750 dollars a year on a fine (OR RISK JAIL!!!) just because I can't afford $9000 in insurance premiums, you have lost your mind. That is why I didn't vote for Hillary in the primaries, it is just another poor tax.
i highly recommend reading Dr. Dean's Op-Ed:

This bill does nothing to control costs and sorry but health insurance is not health care, especially when they can deny coverage.
ARG!
