<p>SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) &#8211; A government-sponsored &#8220;public option&#8221; for health care lives, though it may be more attractive to skeptics if it goes by a different moniker, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday.</p>
<p>In an appearance at a Florida senior center, <a href="http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9BIUUF02&amp;show_article=1">the Democratic leader referred to the so-called public option as &#8220;the consumer option</a>.&#8221; Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., appeared by Pelosi&#8217;s side and used the term &#8220;competitive option.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Now she just needs to rebrand the &#8220;private option&#8221; (i.e. insurance companies). She should probably get some ideas from Alan Grayson, but in the meantime, here&#8217;s a few to consider:</p>

<li>Death Merchants</li>
<li>Profit-Crazy Murdermen</li>
<li>Evil Option</li>

<p>Being a big fan of &#8220;The State&#8221; and &#8220;Freaks and Geeks,&#8221;  it took me a little longer to hate this video than say, the latest release from those vapid celebrities in the Film Actors Guild:</p>

<p>UPDATE: More from <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2009/09/22/video-and-now-an-important-message-from-celebrities-on-obamacare/">Hot Air</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>No one who pocketed $20 million for any movie, let alone <em style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;">Bewitched</em> and <em style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;">Talladega Nights</em>, has any room to talk about overpaid execs.</p></blockquote>
