Hooray for Harkin!

I've got an irrelevant and trivial question, but it's one that's been bugging me for years, so I'm hoping someone in the know can help me out.

Do they really serve steak at his "Steak Fry," and, if so, what kind of steak, to how many people and do they really fry them? Cook it on a slab grill? Cook it on a real gas grill?

Please. I'm serious. I'd really like to know.

Thank you Senator Harkin! It is so reassuring to know someone is still fighting for the American people, even those ignorant ones who, like drowning victims, try to take their saviors down with them.

I have always thought Harkin was the real deal. It is good to have a committed voice take up Ted Kennedys charge as he assumes the chairmanship. There is only reason for not supporting a public option and that is campaign cash. Obama has made is clear it will be revenue neutral. So anyone that opposes it is doing so for their own selfish benefit. This one point should be shouted daily at our lazy media pundits.

I believe Harkin than I do the others. Public option remains.

I love the smell of change. NO public option=NO REAL REFORM~!

I take Harkin's remarks to mean that the HELP committee's bill will have a public option, not that the senate's let alone the final post-conference bill will have one. That's going to be up to Obama, progressives, and the leadership of both houses. It really depends on who stands firmest, and whom Obama is most willing to roll. My read is that he's got no problem rolling progressives, yet again. He almost seems to enjoy it, however faux progressive he comes across in his Lucy-like speeches.

And yet fools still defend him as having a secret plan or having no choice...

Uhuh.

I'm guessing that most of them are shills, though.
