With 75 percent of the American people in favor of a public option for health care, but at least 75 percent of the Senators, and probably closer to 95 percent (both Republican and Democrat) having been bought and paid for by the Health Care industry, the U.S. is not going to get meaningful health care reform in the lifetime of anyone now alive on earth. The U.S. will remain the only industrialized country in the world that does not provide health insurance to all of its citizens.

If Americans had a spine, or balls, or better yet a spine and balls, those 75 percent would be out on the streets of every city in America demanding meaningful health care reform, like the brave Iranians are doing now, demanding that their votes be counted.

Guess what, folks. The only way Americans would ever riot in the streets is if American Idol was suddenly cancelled with no explanation.
