Dear Maine
I am sorry that your other Senator is also an idiot.
In an Associated Press interview in Portland, Snowe said it would be unfair to include a government-run health insurance option that would take effect immediately.
“If you establish a public option at the forefront that goes head-to-head and competes with the private health insurance market … [...]
Calling Bullshit on US Health Care
A must see video.
But here’s an ugly little truth: we’re not getting single payer health care in this country anytime soon. in fact, I doubt we’re even going to get a watered down “public option”. and the reason for this is that the Democrats have never meant a word they said when they’ve talked about [...]
Shorter Reps: “Waaaah, Our Constituents Have Demands, WTF???”
The US Senate responds to constituent phone calls
Slinkerwink gets a front pager at Firedoglake:
We need to find out these 40 progressive Democrats in the House, and make them the power players in asking them to vote against any bill that comes out of the Senate, which would be Max Baucus’s precious little Finance Bill, that [...]

ZA-ZING!
Ronnie Polaneczky has some fun with John Ensign, the hypocritical, homewrecking homophobe:
The right-wing Nevada senator admitted this week that he’d had an affair with a campaign aide, the wife of one of his employees. Ensign called it “the worst thing I have ever done in my life. If there was ever anything in my life [...]
Shorter Obama: “Here’s a Crumb, Faggot, Now Shut Up.”
Via Americablog, NBC seems to get what the Obama Administration is doing when it gives some benefits to same-sex couples who work for the feds:
at 5:45 pm ET, Obama signs a presidential memo granting same-sex benefits to federal workers. This move, however, seems mostly about placating gay-rights advocates who have been angered by 1) the [...]
