Loretta Sieman on the public option and why she's in that ad

1. Boy she surely doesn't sound like much of any kind of democrat

“THE CONCERN ABOUT PUBLIC OPTION IS MY FEAR WITH ANYTHING THE GOVERNMENT RUNS”

Should the U.S. set a goal of everyone having health insurance?

I would love to. I would love to have the wand that would make sure everybody could get the health care they need. My question is, can we at this point in our country, can we do that realistically?

What a bullshit answer this is:
Some people find it odd that a person on Medicare would be in an ad criticizing government-run health care. How would Sieman respond?

Well I am using it right now, because I can afford it. And I can do it. What I’m saying to you is, if we decide to do it for everyone, will we be able to actually do that, the way it needs to be done?

I myself have waited for care. Now I’m trying to figure out, how do we give care? How many hours can you wait? If you’re having a heart attack, how quickly can you get into a hospital that is full? That’s what I’m concerned about.

Seriously - you hear this crap about other countries and it is all horseshit.
