Let's eliminate the fraud and waste now

So writes Cameron Wiley, MD, in today's letters to the WSJ. If that's a problem in a government plan, why would making it bigger automatically eliminate the waste and fraud? Why didn't he start on that on Janaury 21 if he was in such a big rush to reduce costs, save lives, and make Americans healthier?

Because that isn't what this "reform" is all about. It's about power over an industry and control of our lives.

If it weren't, then he would have looked at the 30 million (noticed he reduced that from 47 million in his recent speeches, having apparently figured out the foreign element) and figured something out that didn't change it for the other 90%.

Murray sez:
Gee, Obama gets a little heat about illegals being in "The Plan" and suddenly 17 million people disappear from his total of uninsured. Then he gets called out for lying about illegals being in the plan and the Democrats quickly come up with wording that specifically says they won't be in "The Plan". But... why isn't someone asking the question "what happens to the illegals?" Do they not get any care? Will we get some relief from anchor babies and free ER treatment for them? Since it's now specified that illegals will not be part of the plan it's an obvious question that should be asked BEFORE the bill proceeds! Gee, I wonder who's going to ask it besides me?

Wilson was telling the truth when he accused Obama of lying, because the Hispanic caucus wasn't upset before, but they sure are now that it's been clarified. Now who should get the apology?
