Just like RED Kansas, if it wasn't for the "liberals" and laws they wrote, would still be reading by candlelight and waiting for their mail by Pony Express. Maybe it is time to shut down those REA-supplied power lines to let their anti-FDR rants have some legs. You can take your stands and be A$$HOLES but you shouldn't be rewarded for it.

Oh the horror! Moochers! With a name! Horror!

Tsk, tsk Saline, you swallow another elephant and gag on a gnat. You want to talk DEFICITS, then let's talk some real deficits:

Private insurance costs are still rising in the double digits. Government still refuses to allow itself to negotiate drug prices. Government just refused to allow citizens to so much as buy into medicare as a public option. Health care as a human right is as alien a concept in this country as any green critters in a spaceship would be. And in LR the Pope merges with public hospitals while paying bean counting people over 300k a year for nothing... profits soar. The man with the funniest hat and the prada slippers laughs with Bob Dole and Mitt Romney. Obama will be with them in a couple years.... like Dole no doubt pimping pills on TV for a hundred million in rewards.

When governement is raisng its cost numbers while privateers are as well... we are not saving anything worthy of the word "saving". We are just maintaining/raising the already highest priced health ponzi-scheme the world has ever known.

There is an ACA feature worth noting though, which is that if we don't expand, the feds will have to subsidize folks on the exchange making between 100 and 138 percent of the federal poverty level, so the amount we'd be saving the federal gov. from spending by saying no to expansion is actually even less than in the post (but you get the idea).

David Ramsey demonstrates in his Arkansas Times Blog post that very point.

Governor Beebe, no special session. Make them do their job that they ran for, lied for, schemed for, and got bought for. No extra money because they can't do their job. They can meet 7 days a week, 24 hours a day before anyone should think of having a special session.

Corporations who use the state's Medicaid program as their corporate healthcare program and then bitch about taxes are the worst of the low and in the Republican Party of late, that is so low the limbo stick is on the ground.

It is not enough to make abortion illegal and lethal, it is not enough to run those colored folks away from the polls, they want to take us all the way back to the Gilded Age, when the elderly and the poor died in misery just the way God had always planned it.

How dare those moochers think that they're entitled to a little dignity?
