Top 10 Health Care Bill Myths

1) Even though this has already been covered,  no,  the government will NOT kill or assist the suicide of your grandparents.  After all, if Demo wanted senior citizens to have long and healthy lives, why would we have created Social Security and Medicare? Think about it. Death to grannies has long been the core of progressive policy, 2) No one is going to kill or "stop healthcare support"  for Sarah Palin's baby.  The legislation may actually get her better support. 3) The government will not nationalize hospitals and other health service providers. 4) The reason the bill is not available for review yet?  The bill is not written yet.  They have proposals, but no final bill to show.  When they have one, if they still don't allow review, THEN complain. 5) The bill WILL NOT subsidize abortions.  Both FactCheck.org and Politifact insist that this was decided on months ago. 6) The government will NOT have direct access to anyone's bank account. Not only is it not needed, it would also be illegal. 7) This bill covers AMERICANS.  There is NOTHING in the bill to provide the healthcare of illegal immigrants.  Also, why would they be provided to illegal immigrants while you claim Americans would have to run through a bureaucracy and denied all health-care?  That makes no sense. 8 ) Private health insurance will not be eliminated.  WILL NOT.  As in YOU WILL STILL HAVE PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE IF YOU WANT TO KEEP IT. 9) You will not be issued a "National Health Insurance ID."   You will be issued the same type of proof of insurance that every other health insurance company provides.  And it would only be for the people that signed up for the public health insurance option. It's very useful for when you need health care and would like the insurance to cover it. 10) There is no Super-Duper-Secret Health Care Plan for ACORN members. Politifact shows that ACORN isn't the all-incompassing evil Illuminati group the right seems to think it is, but either way, they get no special treatment. So there.  Now that the Top Republican talking-points have been addressed, how about addressing the actual problems that need solving?

This. Is. NOT. News.

Jamie Lynn Spears, 16-year-old baby sister of Britney Spears, told OK! Magazine during an interview that she is pregnant, TMZ.com reports.
That's great.... it's still not news.  This is gossip and magazine fodder.  It does NOT have any place in an actual newscast, news website, news program.  There are many more important things going on in the world that this time and space should be used for.  Iran, Kosovo, AIDS in Africa, Iraq, imminent government shutdown over budget fight, CIA tape destroying,  and Turkey in Iraq are all things I thought of in under 10 seconds that deserve more attention than this.  Let alone things NOT being covered because it doesn't fit in the corporate media's budget.
