You stood up to the health insurance companies by passing the bill they wrote for you. Proud of you.
Who cares if everyone is forced to buy crappy private health insurance? What's important is Obama and the Democrats in Congress look like they're doing something to reform health care. Obama looking good is more important than actually reforming health care.
And a special thanks to Dennis Kucinich for selling us out. Thanks for voting for a healthcare bill you know is a massive giveaway to health insurance companies. And why did Dennis vote for such a terrible bill? So Obama's presidency isn't harmed. We can't have Obama's presidency harmed. If it were harmed, he might not be able to continue the stupid wars, the domestic spying, the torture, and the giveaways to corporate interests. He might not be able to continue giving us Bush's third term.
