Medicare For All is a need

If the Democratic Party -- meaning super delegates and other crooks -- go with Joe Biden, they better accept that some of us will not be voting for him.

His vote for the Iraq War, his war on Medicare For All?  Why would I support him?

I'm a nurse.  I know we need Medicare For All.  I know ObamaCare is garbage.  We had it in my state first when Mitt Romney was our governor.  It's crap. 

We need Medicare For All.

    It’s been cited in The WaPo (not Bernie friendly) that Joe Biden’s comments about Medicare for All mirror right wing talking points, so yes this does matter. People are dying at the expense of a for profit, health system. This DOES NOT happen in ANY OTHER modern nation.

    Biden says people will lose Medicare under Medicare for All. That is incredibly disingenuous, it is absurd. They will get a huge expansion of the benefits of Medicare.

    Poll after poll shows that a majority of Democrats support Medicare For All. Joe Biden is not being a team player when he blatantly lies about it.
    For to call ’s critique of the Sanders proposal to wipe out the ACA rather than improve it with a public option “absurd” is both ignorant and demagogic. Bernie seems incapable of putting ego aside to become a team player for once. …

    Was obama also not a team player last month when he said “ democrats are also running on good new ideas, like MEDICARE FOR ALL” I wish I didn’t understand how this happens, how you can be so out of touch, but your SMUG DC elitism isn’t complicated, it’s obvious, tired and bad.

This is C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot" for Tuesday:


Tuesday, July 16, 2019.  Joe Biden can't lead when he's always staring over his shoulder at the past.



Joe Biden continues to sink as he seeks the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.  With his past plagiarism well known and with it having led to his dropping out of a previous race for the nomination, you'd think he'd be more careful.  But you don't know Joe.

Joe Biden, plagiarizing Obamacare speech.


Joe Biden, at an AARP event in Des Moines, describing his health care proposal: "If you like your health care plan, your employer-based plan, you can keep it. If you like your private insurance, you can keep it."

Of all things to plagiarize, he goes with the lie.  That was the promise before and it ended up not being true.  But Joe's repeating it again.  Oh, the things that come out of Joe's mouth.

Joe Biden once warned that without 'orderly integration,' his children would 'grow up in a racial jungle'. Democrats always accuse others of what they,Themselves believe.




From Kathryn Krawczyk (THE WEEK):
Yet he also "promoted nearly a dozen pieces of legislation" aimed at limiting federal busing programs, and despite his claims otherwise, outright said "I oppose busing" in 1975, the Times reports. And in 1977, Biden made a particularly questionable argument against using busing to achieve integration.
The quote comes from a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the "busing of schoolchildren," during which Biden vehemently argued for a bill that would remove a U.S. court's power to "issue school transportation orders based on race, color, or national origin," per a congressional summary. Biden said part of the bill's goal was to ensure "orderly integration" with agreement between Congress and federal courts.

"A racial jungle"?  Oh, Joe.

There is some good news though.  Joe has finally found someone he's against.  This is the Joe Biden who gave Bully Boy Bush a prize last year, this is the Joe Biden who spoke warmly of his segregationist pals.  But he's finally found someone he doesn't want to work with, someone he draws a line on.  And who is that group?

Joe Biden draws line against progressives on health care





Yes, Joe's trying to sucker punch progressives.  That's who he decides to battle.  And doesn't that just say it all?

Who will be the most active in getting people to vote?  The progressives.  And Joe wants to attack them.  He's running a campaign of stupidity.

And the press is certainly letting him get away with a lot.  Take Saturday's announcement.

He never takes accountability.  He blames everyone else.  And using "The village idiot tricked me" as an excuse really doesn't speak to your character or intelligence.

He comes off like Ross, "I got tricked into all those things."



But if Bully Boy Bush tricked you into making a mistake, why in the world would you present him with an award and gush that you've "always respected" him?  This was not years ago, this was November of last year, eight months ago.

Someone lies and tricks you, that's how you stand up to them?

He's a weak ass.  And he needs to be called out on this but the press is just going along with it.

His attacks on Medicare For All should send him packing.

    • The weird part about this messaging is that Obama said last fall that M4All was a “good” idea. “Democrats aren't just running on good, old ideas like a higher minimum wage. They're running on good, new ideas like Medicare for all”


    “I understand the appeal of Medicare For All,” Joe Biden said Monday. “But folks supporting it should be clear that it means getting rid of Obamacare, and I’m not for that.”

    “More than three-quarters of Democratic-leaning adults — 77 percent — said they favored a universal program, and 66 percent supported this option even if no private insurance were available, according to a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll.”

    At the end of the day, you’ve either got to be on the side of the people or the side of the health insurance companies. I know which side I’m on.

    That really should be the last straw.  He's refusing to provide a basic need.

    While Joe's living in the past, Bernie's fighting today.
