Direct Lobbying

So you don’t have $1.5 million on hand to buy Senators. Neither did these guys. Watch the entire 6 minutes.

Fascinating video from C-Span of the Senate Hearings on healthcare reform. Senator Max Baucus tries to quell a stream of protesters. As Personal Democracy Forum‘s Micah Sifry, who alerted me to this video explains, “At about 1:45 Baucus is laughing, calling for the police, as a half-dozen peaceful and very articulate citizens speak out, one by one, demanding a seat at the table (where 15 witnesses wait to testify, not one representing the single-payer option).” – via boing boing

    Single payer will not be considered in any way by the Senate or House.

    The biggest opponent is the President.

    Yes, that is right Obama.

    Obama’s an opponent sure enough.

    But the health insurance companies are bigger than Obama.

    And Obama knows it.

    I’m glad Protack knows who the president is.
