Think Progress Lieberman on his willingness to derail health care reform: 'I feel relevant.' By Matt Corley on Oct 31st, 2009 at 1:30 pm After he announced his willingness to filibuster health care reform that includes a public option, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) defended his position by arguing that if the public option paid lower reimbursement rates than private insurers, medical providers would shift costs to Americans with private coverage. He also called the proposed plan "a new entitlement program." As ThinkProgress and others have pointed out, Lieberman either doesn't understand the details of the public option proposed by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) or he is misrepresenting them. But in a conference call with Connecticut reporters yesterday, Lieberman claimed that it is the more than 60 percent of state residents that back a government-run insurance option that are confused: What about the more than 60 percent of state residents that back a government-run insurance option, according to a Quinnipiac University poll last month? Some of those respondents are confused about what such a plan entails, Lieberman said. And he added, "you can't make a decision like this based on polling," he said. Ultimately, he he said he has to do "what I think is right and hope in the end the people of Connecticut will respect me for that." Describing how his openness to derailing reform affected his role in the health care debate, Lieberman told the reporters, "I feel relevant." http://thinkprogress.org/2009/10/31/lieberman-irony-public-option/ -- A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness! Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.[ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
