“Repair the system we’ve got!”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell summed up what all the Americans with whom I’ve spoken think about health care reform today on the Senate floor:

“The American people want health care reform — not with more government, but with less. They don’t want a new government-run system; they want us to repair the system we’ve got. On all these points, the American people are sending a clear and persistent message. It’s time we in Congress started to listen.”

I can’t seem to pull up the full speech at this time, but I’ll link to it when I’m able.
