Obamacare Derailed, temporarily

Well, as Paul at Power Line (where I got this) more or less said, I hope the Blue Dog Dems are capable of keeping this malarky stopped. I still don’t get it. If the rationale is to help the poor, why not help them? Reform Medicaid and Medicare. LBJ had the right idea. His programs were crippled by insane regulations over the years.

So fix them. Do some real work for a change. No need to screw the rest of us. As Megan McArdle says, monopolies don’t innovate. Take away competition and our "best health care in the world" goes down the tubes.

UPDATE:  Great, new anti-ObamaCare ad, with suggestions from commenters for even better ones. My fav, from Portlandon, is: "Uncle Joe getting a rejection letter for his liver cancer surgery, followed by a gunshot. The letter falls like a feather to the floor at his feet."
