The red balloon is Repubican jobs plan: Looks good from the outside, empty on the inside, blows away with the slightest political wind.

sorry you are 110% wrong. During health reform town halls, people brought their stories of wretched treatment by insurance companies. The same people who want to put jackbooted government thugs right in the womb, shouted down that testimony as false, exaggerated, unpatriotic.

How can those fetuses testify? They don't even have a birf cert.

Well that's not cool. Basically, after GOP leadership removed an anti-SB 5 Republican from the committee, SB 5 passed and is headed to a vote on the Senate floor. This comment comes from "Stand Up For Ohio".

Apparently, the unemployment crisis in Ohio has been resolved so that the Legislature can now deal with less pressing matters.

When do we get to see the video of the cute little babies and toddlers born into poverty, or the ones born sick with no insurance? Come on republicans, can't you make those babies dance too?

Sorry I couldn't bring the snark.

I watched 26 seconds of the video. Damn, I'm not gettting that 26 seconds back, am I? Those babies have some real work ahead to make it on DWTS.

Do you remember those mobile medical clinics some of us were talking about when the health insurance bill was yet to pass? I wonder if one could put together some footage of those, or similar efforts, and focus on children who aren't getting the care they need. Would the Ohio legislators play that video in the spirit of fairness?

Skinny, shivering puppies and kitties, a toll-free number flashing up on the screen, and knowing where your checkbook is at that precise moment. Some of us never stood a snowball's chance in hell, Pinchy.

I find it passing strange that the babies they parade in front of the legislature are squeee-inducing cute. I wonder why they don't parade the mentally retarded and the horribly deformed wee bairns. I wonder why that is.

I'm thinking, hey if it's as simple as making a dancing baby video, we should be able to tug enough heart strings to make sure health care for everyone stays. Hengh?

In fact, I would bet they LOVE peanut butter.
