Yes, Bush Cheney, I encourage you to take your own advice and think. . .before you name yourself after a pair of war criminals who are against anything that appears to be to the advantage of citizens and approve of anything that benefits corporations--look at the record if that statement confuses you.

The fact is that the US needs a health care system that does not involve insurance companies, and what we need fewer of are Repugnicans who don't complain about the billions of dollars in corporate welfare we pay out every year but balk when money is going to go to help people. Because of the current health care situation, America leads industrial nations in infant mortality and deaths from treatable health problems. I don't hear you being worried about the $3 trillion war we're fighting that gets more expensive every day--the defense budget is now about 50% of the government's budget, and social programs make up a very small part.

You're seem to be of the same mind as the Reagan-era conservatives who attacked welfare for being a haven for "black welfare mothers" when the majority of people on welfare were white and most people on welfare used it responsibly. Thanks to the economic downturn orchestrated by the past Republican congresses (Phil "Whiner" Gramm to be specific), REAL unemployment (not the faked and fudged numbers the gov't churns out, is about 9%--more people out of work, and the number of poor has grown by the millions-- people who are unable to afford health care. If you are a cold, Darwinian Repugnican, the solution is to let them all die, which seems to be your perspective as well.

Has everyone out there noticed that 'W' is only inarticulate when he is trying to show "compassion" (and to him it is all show)? He just doesn't have it in him, poor guy. We should feel sorry for him, after we impeach is sorry a**.

Not a regressive tax - actually progressive, as it shifts a greater portion of healthcare costs onto those who place a disproportionate burden on the healthcare system. Plus, if you give up smoking, you give up the tax. It's practically voluntary.

I can't think of anything good coming out of this presidency - and it cost so much for this lack of goodness too.

Wait a minute - EVERYTHING COSTS ALOT MORE in the last 6 years. College, Healthcare, Housing, Gasoline, Food, Furniture, Electricity, Travel, Vacations... If we just cut out those costs - maybe we can just get by.

What's that? We haven't been funding all of the U.S. debt? - darn - we have to pay for all of the great big bills for which we received nothing? I guess there is no way out of the upcoming BUSH DEPRESSION...

anonymous: ... and anytime the tax on cigarettes goes up even a little bit, many people quit, and fewer people start. So it actually also improves childrens' health :) But to the extent that it takes money disproportionately from poorer people, at least that's where almost all the money is going. Unlike all the other regressive taxes and fees we have, that go to the general fund, which primarily benefits people with a lot more money.

Stewart's actually being a little reactionary here. Yes, we can criticize Bush for the veto, but we should also criticize supporters of the bill. A tax on cigarettes is a regressive tax because poor people smoke more than rich people and because poor people spend a greater fraction of their income on cigarettes than rich people.

This blew my mind when I first heard it. First blackwater is "cartoonishly evil" and now G.W.B. is Mr. Burns. I wish it weren't true.
