    Democrats show true color on public option

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33479225/ns/politics-health_care_reform/

    I wrote in a post three months ago that the Democrats don't care what the Republicans have to contribute to healthcare reform, they are going to get a public option that leads to single payer. The states will now be pressured to not opt out and it won't be long before the progressives are on the road to single payer, government run healthcare.

    The whole bipartisan bit was a charade, a cynical ploy to make it look like the Democrats wanted a bipartisan effort. There's no question that the Democrats want government run healthcare and they will lie, cheat and steal to get it.

    This can all be undone if the public unites and punishes the progressives in the next two elections. I was thinking today that it Hoffman wins in NY-23, and the 2010 elections are hard on the progressives, there might enough momentum and inspiration for the American people to demand free market solutions to healthcare, re-ignite the economy and get this country on the right path. It's time to stop the progressive nonsense.
