AP: Sebelius says Public Option is not essential.
Well, looks like the Left is going to need a bigger Sorosphere. I guess the Mobs are not that insignificant and rare – you know, exceptional – after all. And tonight, many Lefties will cry themselves to sleep, wallowing in their throat-stepping impotence…unless their anger is such that they are compelled to seethe themselves to sleep instead. At any rate: well done, Mobs!
But if you allow me to geek out for a moment, Sebelius sounds too much like a sci-fi villain’s name for me to trust anything she says (Darth Sebelius has a nice ring to it – I know she’s a real nice lady and all; but Senator Palpatine also seemed like a nice man). Bottom Line: nice to hear, but we need to keep pushing back.
You know, like with the so-called End of Life provision – i.e., Death provision – which the Senate removed from the bill. The one that didn’t exist because Sarah Palin brought attention to it and she’s always wrong. Remember that one?
UPDATE: American Power links, with related content. Thanks! Plus a warning:
Don’t believe for a second that a public option is off the table.

In many ways, sadly, they were a mirror held up to the collective face of modern American society.
