I understand that those on Medicare, and over 65, will keep it. What about those that are under 65? If the Healthcare Reform passes, will those under 65, still get to keep Medicare?

"Why aren't the conservatives supporting professor Gates?"

Two reasons; conservatives may be using one or the other or both:

1. Gates was black; the officer was white. Us versus Them.

2. Gates is a friend of President Obama. The friend of my enemy is my enemy as well.

Consistency has nothing to do with conservative politics. If it did, they would be supporting a patient's right to refuse extreme and intrusive medical care in the last few days of their life. But it's more politically powerful to call it 'euthanasia' and crank up some hysteria about it.

If consistency were important, conservatives who hollared about the bank and auto company bailouts would see the anti-healthcare reform for what it is – supporting the right of big insurance companies to continue to profit by denying care to their subscribers.

Looking for consistency or principles in conservative thought is like looking for the Holy Grail – no one knows exactly what it is, no one knows where it is, and no one really knows for sure if it even exists.
