Claire McCaskill

Claire McCaskill has traveled all over Missouri telling voters she won’t for the present healthcare bill unless it’s deficit neutral. This is trickery from Claire’s mouth. Make no mistake about it. Let me interpret what Senator McCaskill is really saying: I am voting for the healthcare bill. I am voting for the healthcare because once we pass it, we start heavily taxing you immediately upon passage for a program that you will not have benefits from for three years later.

McCaskill, an outspoken supporter of Obama during the 2008 campaign, was one of just a handful of Congressman invited to the event, according to the official White House invitation list .

Look at the screen shot of her Twitter page.) I ... Read Full Story

I knew when I read Claire McCaskill's article trooping out her mother's name again it was getting deep and that it was time to roll up my trousers (News- Leader article dated Nov. 05, 2009). Claire shamelessly uses her mother as a ploy for the need to keep Medicare solvent. Of course she blames the insurance industry as the evil doer of all the health care problems.

This coming from a member of the same party which has ... Read Full Story

Claire McCaskill will put all of your health care reform protestors into time-out so fast it will make your head spin. Claire McCaskill , senator from Missouri, did what is quickly becoming a rite of passage for Democratic pols these days: faced down a shouting, angry crowd at a town hall meeting. She attempted to use a bit more a reasonable tone than some have, admonishing protestors that all this shouting wasn't helping them make their points.
