“But who will pay for it?” they whin.
Ever wonder what a group of children playing are talking about? Ever wonder what provoked the sudden burst of laughter or caused one in the group to say to another, “I just told you why?” Ever wonder what appear to us adult as aimless and un-productive blather? In my opinion, talk shows tomorrow will be full of this immature and un-productive “blather”.
The immature and un-productive “blather” will center around the words, “But who is going to pay for it?” This afternoon I heard the formula played out in its fullest on the Ed Schultz’s show as he was talking to Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius. (Paraphrased)
Tomorrow, I also look forward to hearing other “Theme and Variations on ‘Whose going to pay for it?’” Additionally, I look forward to hearing resurgent of “Single payer, Co-op and Triggers” thrown into conversations to obfuscate and anything else to help pundits and commentators get through the time frame to continue paying rent and making mortgage payments by any means, lies and BS necessary. There is a format they have to follow and some areas of the news are strictly forbidden to them at various times. The producers of the shows have to wait until they get time to read information on Blogs. We all know how busy they are monitoring fires, car chases and what Michel Vick is doing.
In my opinion, it has to do with the mental abilities to multi-task in their job situation. I think the very visible Chuck Todd is one of the people who determines what gets on news cycles for MSNBC and I strongly suspect Pat Buchanan also has a hand. I vividly remember Chuck coming onto the set of Chris Matthews telling him, right on camera, to no longer use a Hitler analogy and I am also mindful of Chuck dis-inviting Sen. Dennis Kucinich to participate in a Presidential debate forum during the ’o8 primaries.
As always,

-Sec. Sebelius, we heard the President talking about his HealthCare Reform Bill last Wednesday. What I want to know is, who is going to pay for it? How are the reforms going to get paid?
-Well, we have isolated funds 1, 2, 3 and 4 and just the other day, we found fraud in one agency that will save us billions of dollars and blah, blah, blah. We already have money in the pipeline and blah, blah, blah and we plan to use that and blah, blah, blah.
-Yes, but I want to know how we are going to pay for it? I just wanna know.(Ed would not advance the conversation)
-(Graciously) I’m sure the President has a plan.
-Well, I look forward to hearing it. I mean, it’s about time we know who’s gonna pay for it, don’t you think? Do you know? If you do, tell me.
-(Smile, still gracious)
