A Requiem for Joe and the Public Option....
Senator Lieberman has apparently succeeded in driving the final nail into the public option's coffin, earning him an eternal damnation from the Church of Universal Coverage. The Disease Management Care Blog agrees: oh, ease up on Joe already.
But the empathic DMCB feels your pain. And what better way to feel better than to break into some song? This one may be morose, but after a few verses, the DMCB guarantees that the suffering will ease and the work of influencing policy can begin anew....
With apologies to 0ne Eskim0 and their lovely and haunting version of Kandi
Joe’s made a scene for longer than you know
Reform thanks to you
Has been a big headache
Every day we stop
It’s make or break…..
And if we get things wrong
Don't want us to think we're running away
But we’ve heard from Joe about this plan
And we want to know
What did he say?
He said no way, no way no way all along
What did he do?
He said no way, no way all along…….
Why? Why? Why, do we need him?
Filibuster
Just how close are we to sixty?
Every smile he gave
Every pledge he made
Every word he said…..
And it hurts beyond hurt
A plan that Reid insists
And our base is pissed
When we heard from Joe about his “no”
And we want to know
(OK, everybody sing!)
What did he say?
He said no way, no way no way all along
What did he do?
He said no way, no way all along……
Do insurers ever touch you…..
Can Move-On ever reach you….
It’s never enough….
What did he say?
He said no way, no way no way all along
What did he do?
He said no way, no way all along…….
