What I’m saying to the people of Connecticut, I can do more for you and your families to get something done to make health care affordable, to get universal health insurance.October 23, 2006:
I’ve been working on health insurance reform for more than a dozen years. … I have offered a comprehensive program. Small business health insurance reform, plus something I call MediKids to cover all the children in America on a sliding fee basis up until the age of 25.
MediChoice to allow anybody in our country to buy into a national insurance pool like the health insurance pool that we federal employees and Members of Congress have. Medical malpractice reform.
It will cover 95% of those who are not covered now, and it will reduce the pressure on rising costs for all the millions of others.

Universal health insurance does not equate to a public option. I don't agree with Lieberman's stance this week, but we shouldn't characterize it as being contrary to his stance three years ago.
Honestly, they're all liars anyway. Candidate Obama vowed he would veto any bill including telecom immunity for spying on Americans. President Obama voted for that bill. And President Bush? Well he just mostly lied.
to kevin..you sound just like lieberman,
