Dodd, Graham spar over health care
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5id0YwQ4lf_9GI7uDL0CMFGigLg_QD98V30RG1

Sen. Lindsey Graham says the Senate will not let the U.S. "go down the government-run health care road."

The South Carolina Republican was on a Sunday morning talk show repeating the charges of those opposed to President Barack Obama's attempts to overhaul the health care system. Graham said Obama's plan would let a government bureaucrat stand between people needing treatment and their doctors.

Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., who is heading the reform effort in the Senate, reminded Graham that a new poll showed the 72 percent of Americans want a government role in health care and expressed a willingness to pay higher taxes for that.

The senators appeared on ABC's "This Week."

1. The porblem is nobody has the **LLS
to call them on it and ask WHO is advocating a government takeover. They just let the point stand and do not challenge it so it must be true if you say it enough. These idiots also need to point out thhe fact that we already have someone between the doctor and patient and that is the insurance company denying coverage.
