Okay - I know the elections are over, but until football season REALLY starts, I'm still playing fantasy Senate cloture with MY free time.
And the topic of the hour seems to be health care. With regards to Obama's health care plan...Sarah Palin called it "evil"....which makes me think it's probably worth voting for sight-unseen. [Sort of like if Paula Abdul calls something "strange" you'd probably run right out and try it.]
I'll be honest, I can't really follow the ins and outs of the plans themselves, but I sure do enjoy the clips of each town-hall meeting/cage match. I've seen a couple of these clips now and I swear...every one of the screaming "questioner"/crackpots bears more than a passing resemblance to George's parents on Seinfeld. Half the time, I can't tell whether these people are screaming about "socialized" medicine killing old people, Obama being born in Kenya or a dinner that didn't qualify for the early bird special. [If I were some of these people, I'd be scared about death panels too.] Honestly, it seems that the medium age of these Yellers is about 82. Which I find ironic since all of these town criers are probably already getting Medicare coverage [the ultimate public option].
I dunno...if I have to pick between Obama's plan or the plan that Frank Costanza is yelling about....
