NBC interviewed McCain this a/m about the "you lie" outburst.

McCain started off with that kind of behavior shouldn't be tolerated.

Then the interviewers went thru things point by point on what is true and 
what was not true.  McCain pretty much went point by point and called out the 
POTUS's "untruths".


He did say it is true that the bill does not mandate insuring illegals.  
(Course, the obvious thing is illegals do a lot of things they aren't 
supposed to do.... and for the zinger, the ACORN article linked earlier of 
course encourages pimps to bring in illegals and have them count as 
dependants,,,, so they would theoretically be insured under the pimps' 
Obamacare....)

He did point out that the Gov't budget office itself states that the 
discrepancy in the costs.
He stated the plan is "generational theft".
He stated it is true that 4/5 (committees?) have already passed this plan, 
but as to the partisan support, said the fact is there is not a single 
republican on any of those (committees?).
He sort of danced around the end of life counseling thing, gave some 
parallels to solutions elsewhere, and concluded that there is real reason for 
concern - although I think it was not about end of life counseling, but 
something else, the cause/effects issues that will result.

I forget the other points..
Wish I could find a link of that interview.   The look on Today Show's hosts 
faces (Lauer & Meredith) at the end were... priceless.

Well, besides that lie (and, yes it is a lie.  The bills state that NO ONE 
will be denied coverage based on "any characteristic."  That is repeated and 
the "any" emphasized!  Being illegal is a characteristic!), I quit watching 
after catching him in 2 more outright lies.

All politicians should be limited to two terms:  one in office, one in jail.

I did a word search on the text of the bill, and "any characteristic"
doesn't seem to appear in the bill. Discussions of "denying coverage" only
says that providers can't deny coverage to anyone eligible (undocumented
aliens, per section 246, are not eligible) Here's the text:

Do you have a link to the text of the bill?  I just can't take
anyone's word on what is written in a piece of legislation, I have to
read it for myself.  No offense meant, Lynda, I just learned long ago
that the only way to know what a bill says is to read it.
