Chris Matthews brought it up tonight.....Did Hillary really accept Pharma lobby $$$ in exchange for her vote in the Yeah for that bill or did Mr Moore make a false claim in SICKO.....If true how would Hillary defend herself if asked....does this make her a major hypocrite.
2. Did Moore say there was money exchanged for a vote?
I don't think so. I believe he was just pointing out who was getting what money. If he did say that there was an exchange money for vote, that sounds like a pretty serious charge.
Hillary Clinton's "HillaryCare" was all about forcing private insurance to "cover" people. Cross-reference Mitt Romney's MA plan for how successful that vision is.
Hillary is the #2 in the senate (behind voted-out-in-my-district Rick Santorum) in receipt of Ins/Pharma lobby funds. www.opensecrets.com
with the fact she is a Senator from New York - not Montana or Wyoming or Oklahoma or Iowa or 30 other states. New York - big state - lots of medical groups.
7. true to Moore's style, he set it up for you to draw that conclusion...
...though no evidence suggests it.
Also, a mere (if memory serves) $200,000 separates her from Obama in this respect - which isn't a big chasm when you consider the hundreds of thousands in question. Why didn't Moore question Obama's take?
