With The Public Option Act, a four-page bill to open up Medicare to everyone, at cost.

We need several dozen more Congresscritters and Representatives just like Alan Grayson. If only we could clone him...

I didn't know they made bills that short.

Go Grayson!

Public option

Yes yes yes, all the way around. Yes, more like Alan Grayson. And I'm glad that the Democrats (who remain in the majority no matter what it may sometimes sound like) are starting to think about using "reconciliation." There is hope for our country yet.

Alan Grayson rocks. I'll take one of him for each Congressional district, please, and an extra helping of Al Franken for each Senate seat.

And it took me two tries to get the right tune to your title; the first thing my poor tired ancient and decrepit brain came up with was "Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey, Goodbye" -- which I knew was unlikely.

Brilliant. Reblogged.

Your icon rocks! May I swipe?

You bet. I made it, so credit please. TYVM.

I hope it gains traction. I hope it succeeds. Watch how much even the *ahem* "liberal media" will go psycho about this simple proposition.

And it's just a four page document right now. Just watch what will happen to that four page document if it gets any traction, though. One of the typical tricks to delay and/or undermine is to demand clarifications, explanations, challenges, and all type of amendments and riders. Then when it gets close to an actual vote on the floor, the opposition has a *2100 page prop* to wave around. (that they neglect to mention how they helped make it that way)

The reconciliation vote IS the up-or-down vote on the public option, if there are no other votes. As of today, 37 Senators have voted yes, including both Senators from Oregon and Michigan.

We need 13 more. Those who fail to vote yes are the Democratic enemies of health care reform, regardless of what else they say (and the 22 "no" Democrats as of today, have some surprising members, including Rockefeller, Feingold and Harkin. Some of them will change between now and the ultimate deadline).

Thanks! I will. :D

Did you come up with the phrase, as well, or just the design? If you created the phrase...you wouldn't happen to have t-shirts available, would you?

[redaxe.livejournal.com]

It's all mine. I don't have an Etsy or other store; if you want to put it on a custom T-shirt, fell free. Don't open a store with it, but for yourself? Sure.

Thank you, will repost.
