SINCE LEFT, RIGHT AND CENTER ALL HATE THE BILLS...:

Pelosi's Not-So-Robust Public Option (John Nichols, 10/29/2009, The Nation)

The public option was always a compromise for serious supporters of health-care reform, who -- like Barack Obama when he was running for the Senate in 2003 -- knew that a single-payer "Medicare for All" system was what America needed to provide health care to everyone while controlling costs.

But, in the reform legislation debuted Thursday by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the compromise was even more compromised than had been expected.

...can't we just Kevorkian the thing?
