Government: Medicare paid $47 billion in suspect claims

Wow! And Obama thinks that it would be a good idea to expand government healthcare. They can not even handle the current system; more government spending, more waste, more fraud, and higher taxes. Do we really trust the government to take more control of the system!

Yea, but, the Feds will learn from their mistakes and be sure, honestly, cross my heart and hope to die, to protect the one trillion dollars of our money we give them to overhaul the U. S. health care system.

Oh, we need a doctor all right...a shrink.

Are we nuts?

Where's the GOP when we needed them?.

Have you ever questioned if your past is real? I'm not talking about the easy stuff like, "That was a really dumb thing to say." I'm talking about what is indisputable in our history. Is the narration I know authentic? Were the celebrated heroes of my childhood genuine or creations of legends as dubious as a giant lumberjack and his baby blue ox? Are the historical tales taught in my school days factual? It is not just about getting the facts right. We gain deeper insights into our national character when our history is re-examined.

Only $47 billion? Sounds like your ordinary little stimulus program to me.

Waste, corruption and inefficiency abound in any government run program and yet still fools rush in! Maybe there are enough sensible people in the Senate to kill the Obamacare bill! Obviously the majority of our House of Representatives are fools!
