Read the entire story before slamming Mr. O. on the healthcare bill.
I was born a Republican and will give up my gun when they pry my cold
dead fingers from it, but, it was bribes paid to the Republican party
by the drug companies which BLOCKED Medicare from being able to
negotiate drug prices with manufacturers.  Blue Cross and Blue Shield
pays less for each drug and procedure than Medicare does even though
Medicare is a much larger insurer.
