Dueling VIDEOS: Grassley v. Dean on public option

By GottaLaff

Discussing Medicare/the public option, Chuck Grassley popped out with this:

"The government is a predator."
Um, Chucky? You work for the government. You are the government.
"Would he support a deal if you get what he wants out of committee?" Chuck Todd asks. "No," says Grassley.

Hear that? He said N.O.

He won't follow through, because it's more important to him to tow the party line. It's all about politics. Period. Even if it's a "good deal". Watch:


Now the voice of reason, Howard Dean: "Co-ops put money right back into insurance companies." The co-ops will be too small to play the game with gigantic Big Insurance.
"The people on the right are totally out of touch with what's going on."
He goes on to say, allow people under 65 to buy into Medicare. Thom Hartmann says the same thing. I've said the same thing, as I did again in an e-mail to the White House today. Watch:



And one more for the road. Apologies for exposing you to MoJo. Joe: "You would not vote for a final health care bill if it didn't have the public option in it?" Dean:
"Absolutely not, 'cause it's not health care reform."
