On a conference call last month, Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) hedged a little bit on the question of whether Republicans, if they won a congressional majority in 2010, would repeal a health care bill passed by the 111th Congress. Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) is not hedging.

    as long as the cons in govt continue to work for Big Insurance at the expense of hard-working americans, their approval ratings will continue to hover below 30% in all the polls, which is where they are now, and have been for quite some time.

    Boehner and the remaining GOP sheep are instinctively corrupt, worshiping corporate irresponsibility and assaulting the liberal ideologies of progress and decency. A pledge to undo any advancement made to improve society exposes the mean spirit of the Republican agenda.

      Unfounded comment? Hardly. One just has to look at the record compiled by the Bush administration. Worst president in history. Your nation has blown its wad, mine hasn't even started breathing heavy yet.

      Why don't you just get back to buffing your tooth and stringing your banjo.

        If the republicans regain power it won’t matter what they do, your country will be finished. It will take one more revolution around the bowl and disappear into the sewer of obscurity.

        This whole story was a waste of time and ink. If the bill is passed, and the republicans still take control next year, it will obviously be because the bill was such a failure that Americans wanted it gone. Seriously, if democrats force through a health care bill and everyone is happy with it, there would be no chance that the other party would be given control.

        You guys gotta start sing your heads and stop falling for crap like this...

            HCR will join Social Security and Medicare as targets of the moneyed class lords and their Republican handmaidens.

            It has ever been so. Most recently, Bush added Medicare Part D without providing funding. It's always been apparent that this had twin motives: first to get him reelected, and the second to make sure the Medicare fund was exhausted more quickly so it could be killed. The only element he missed in his murder plot was that it required the "Permanent Republican Majority" that he and Rove expected.
