		<description>Debunked rumors? Explain to me how illegals will be kept from receiving plan benefits if no provision is made for verification. A sentence of the bill stating that this isn&#039;t intended for illegals is a joke. And which &quot;concessions to conservative lawmakers&quot; are you referring to? People would like to see competition open up across state lines. Is that included? People would like to see common-sense tort reform. Is that in there? How is it that this is touted, by Barry, as a spring-board to the &quot;success&quot; of Medicare when, in the same breath, he says that it will be paid for by fixing the corruption and inefficiencies of Medicare?</description>

		<description>After running around telling fear-mongering lies then declaring that in his view bipartisanship means that Dems, who WON the election, should give in to every Rep demand and completely scrap their plan it&#039;s perfectly clear that Grassley is not interested in good faith negotiation.  I give the President credit for trying, but bipartisanship is impossible when the other side wants nothing but to see you fail.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That&#039;s the GOP game plan; they don&#039;t care about reforming and improving health care while lowering costs, and it&#039;s about time Dems realized it.  They don&#039;t care about people who can&#039;t start their dream small business because they couldn&#039;t afford to insure their families.  They don&#039;t care about people who&#039;s incomes aren&#039;t keeping up with inflation because their employers are putting money into skyrocketing insurance costs instead of raises.  They don&#039;t care about people going bankrupt because of illness or being denied coverage after paying premiums for years.  They don&#039;t care about people going without insurance then showing up in the emergency room, where everyone will have to pay.  They don&#039;t care about anything but making this the President&#039;s &quot;Waterloo&quot;, and Grassley has gone right along with his party on that.</description>
