Deal or no deal?

The Spokesman-Review

The discussion on Obama’s heath care bill certainly has generated a lot of discussion. My only question to those in Congress who champion this bill, with the public single-payer option, at those town hall meetings is this: Would you give up your current health care coverage you receive serving as senators and representatives for the public option outlined in the bill? This question should also be asked to the president. The answer should say it all.
