Yeah, Right, this is what Hillary said back in the '90's.

No, no, A thousand times no!!

Why can't the liberals understand that socialized medicine is a losing proposition?

WASHINGTON (CNN) – The top House Democrat says she is standing by her support for a public health insurance option as part of a broader overhaul of the nation’s health care sector.

“No, no, no, no,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in an interview that aired Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union when asked whether she had softened her position on the public option.

“The president has said he believes the public option is a way — a way to keep the private insurance companies honest. But he said if you could find another way to do this, show it to me.”

Pelosi also rejected the idea of using a trigger to kick in a public option three to five years after passage of any health care reform bill.

“I think the private insurance industry has had a long enough time to have a trigger. We know what happens left to their own devices,” the California Democrat said.

“This is about having an alternative to give much more leverage to the individual. And the president has said if you like the insurance — insurance that you have, you like your doctor, you can keep it,” Pelosi also said.
