Arrested For Health Care

Connecticut residents were arrested at Senator Lieberman's Washington office this week for protesting his decision to filibuster the health reform proposal. The reason: It provides that states can determine if they want a public option. I continue to be confused by the fact that members of congress all have publicly funded health insurance but some, Senator Lieberman included, do not want the citizens to have the same option. If it is so evil, why not give it up and go into the private market like the rest of us? Michael Quinn
