still pulling for you? THEN DON'T BREAK YOUR WORD. A HEALTH CARE "REFORM" BILL THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE PU8LIC OPTION, IS NOT REAL REFORM. DID YOU THINK YOU WERE GOING TO FOOL ANYBODY ON THIS?
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/19/... (AP) The White House is waiting for Congress to settle on a final health care bill, even though President Barack Obama has a clear preference in favor of at least one specific - the much-debated public option, advisers said.
Obama, however, will not demand that legislation include a government-run insurance plan intended to drive down costs through competition with private insurers, they said.
Instead, the White House will let Congress work out the details required to get something passed.
"There will be compromise. There will be legislation, and it will achieve our goals: helping people who have insurance get more security, more accountability for the insurance industry, helping people who don't have insurance get insurance they can afford, and lowering the overall cost of the system," presidential adviser David Axelrod said.

Attention Mr. Obama: There is NO REFORM WITHOUT A PUBLIC OPTION.
To the Congress: NO DEMOCRAT SHOULD VOTE TO SUBSIDIZE INSURANCE COMPANIES WITHOUT A PUBLLIC OPTION.
WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER WALL STREET BAILOUT. WITHOUT COST CONTROLS THERE CAN BE NO PUBLIC MONEY GIVEN TO FOR-PROFIT INSURANCE COMPANIES. THIS IS NOT HEALTH CARE REFORM. IT IS OPEN-ENDED PROFIT SUPPORT FOR THE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
ALLOW ME TO REMIND YOU THAT SOCIALISM FOR CORPORATIONS IS A REPUBLICAN POLICY. IT WON'T WORK AND IT WILL MAKE THE PUBLIC WRITE YOU OFF AS, HOW SHALL I PUT THIS: A LIAR AND A CON-MAN (IN OTHER WORDS, A REPULICAN).
IF YOU ARE LOSING THE CAJONES TO FIGHT FOR HEALTH CARE REFORM WHY DON'T YOU TALK TO HILLARY. MAYBE SHE CAN GIVE YOU SOME OF HERS.
