This is just stupid. Thinking that doctors and other health professionals could improve the health care system better then others is ridiculous.

The point isn’t that the pharma/insurance companies scored well in the poll (they didn’t), the point is that the GOP scored even worse.

yawn…..

All saco knows how to do is whine. No use even yawning anymore :(

Kill yourself

The general public believes that Republicans can’t even competently support the constituents/industries that they support. It’s not just a question of them supporting the wrong constituents/industries, it’s now just a question of them not being even able to do that job right. This rises the question – why are they even a party any more? Whether or not you agree that their aims are correct, there isn’t even any confidence that they could do the job of implementing them. That’s just plain sad.

Insurance companies? Evil. Republicans? Evil and incompetent.

Didn’t they learn from their number-free ‘budget’?

You know what would be funny? If they reintroduced the McCain “insurance plan” that completely demolishes employer-based insurance and replaces it with a tax credit in a complete free-for-all system, while still allowing insurance companies to refuse people for pre-existing conditions. That’d be hy-larious.

Read ALTERNET today!!!!

No thanks, blogspammer. If there’s something there that’s relevant, cite the link, provide the relevant portion of text, and discuss how it applies. The comment thread isn’t a voting system for which items TP should display.

Interesting that “doctors” ranks highest on the list — at the same time that the AMA and their mouthpieces claim to represent “all doctors” when protesting a public plan.

We need to break up that point of confusion. Unless they step entirely out of it, the AMA is pretty much just an insurance/pharma marketing scheme.

What happened to 80%, obama? Dropping like a lead ballon…..

This poll isn’t his favorability rating, you poor confused little wingnut. His favorability rating is here, currently at 72%.

Seriously, if you get the basic facts that you’re posting about flat wrong, then you make your side look just plain stupid. If I was a conservative, I’d have to tell you you’re not helping. Since I’m not… carry on.

Blah Blah Blahl…….well I have relatives in Windsor, Ontario that laugh at the US health care system…The love their system, aren’t afraid to change jobs for fear of losing care and go to the dr.s whenever they need to. You are just parroting the frank luntz GOP talking points of fear. People aren’t as stupid as you think….they have the web to check facts.

Obama’s ratings have begun to decline, probably because Bush and Cheney aren’t in prison for war crimes, but I could be wrong.

Obama is enjoying solid support simply because the fascist Republican Party is attacking him on all fronts. As many as 75% of Americans have rejected everything Republican so Obama is the enemy of our enemy, if not our friend.

I am curious, what was BushW’s approval rating six months into the first year of his first term as president?
=======================================================
He was at 53% at the same time in 2001.

Most people hate Big Pharma and most people hate health insurance companies but more people hate Republicans than either of them.

I guess when you adopt fascism as your political ideology and spam radio and cable with propaganda, and openly practice bigotry, you end up hated.
