I read in today's paper that Nancy Pelosi proudly announced that this bill passed yesterday will make health insurance available to 96% of the American people. What about the 4% of 300 million or 12 million that it doesn't? Is this the Pseudo-Universal Healthcare Reform?

 Scratching head....a little confused.
It's been pointed out that 4% is roughly the number of illegal immigrants (who are "Americans"--North Americans--but not USAmericans).

Seriously who are the 4% she was talking about? Are we to understand that the Dems are showing no concern for the illegals?
No, you are supposed to know from the last several weeks' news coverage that a concession to moderate Dems and conservative public pressure was to rewrite the language so that illegal aliens would not be covered (technically, though I think I see a gaping loophole in the system).  

So how does this fix our problem? Or does this portend unforseen tentacles from this panacea program?

I don't believe for a minute the Democrat congress will snub the Hispanics by not including illegals in the final bill.

You better believe there is a loophole. In fact, I saw Obama himself say that illegals would get medical "attention" like they do now. He was asked in an interview if illegals would be covered under the plan and he said no. Then the interviewer went further and prodded a little. Obama finally said that they would be treated as they are now through "other" federal programs.. But not through the new system. Which I still believe will end up opposite of what they say.

So, yes... There is a loophole.

Didn't say it fixed anything, just let you know what the number you asked about is said to represent.

So to boil it down, we have Pelosi including illegals as Americans, AND they are ostensibly NOT going to cover them with the Hispanic voting block scratching their head asking who'da thunk it? If so, there may be hope for non-Dems in 2010.

Is giblets pronounce with a hard g or a soft g as in jiblets?

Inquiring minds want to know. I suspect all the Democrats pronounce it with a hard g.

Hi Okie, and not to hijack the thread, but even in PM, what has wanting to throw a pie in Nancy's face have to do with observing the Lord's supper in a worthy manner?

Presumably this:

"Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift."

 No, had to examine myself, because I cannot stand Nancy, she is so obnoxious, and haughty.
