why cardiograms and Ekg's be covered and not stress tests?
You're right, none of them should be covered.
I don't get it, first you say Echo cardiograms and EKG's should be covered but not stress tests. When I ask you why, you change your mind and say none should be covered. Please explain.
Nah. Nevermind. Leave it to Dear Leader Obama to decide.
Like giving free breathalyzers to kids. Available in all 57 states.
He clearly meant 47 -_-....And I like how you guys are comparing this unabashed moderate to a communist.
You honestly think Obama is a moderate? That is insane.
Yes, at least in practice. He has a way of turning everything he sets out to do into a compromise and then saying that its "okay" and still "a success". He's not forceful enough in supporting the policies that people voted him in for, he wants to make everyone happy. I mean the healthcare bill doesn't even have a public option (I mean, Canada has a single payer system and they don't seem to have turned into a totalitarian state yet) and he turns it around into a resounding success, even though I'm sure most of his supporters would have wanted at least a public option.
I was listening to a speaker who pointed out something interesting, which I think makes a lot of sense. The left in this country are too sympathetic to Obama and his overall wishy-washyness. We focused all our support onto getting him in office rather than advocating particular issues and policies. Now, whenever he falls short of an expectation, we want to "give the guy a break" and make excuses. The problem is that, even though he's in office, he's just one guy, and (rightfully so) is not responsible for every decision this country's government makes. The cult of personality around Obama was too high imo, and it's kind of why he's not meeting the left's expectations.
