Nancy Pelosi says the "public option" in health care should go by another name, such as "competitive option," because, according to the AP, she "says the term has been misrepresented and creates the impression that taxpayers will foot the bill for health care."

Clearly there's been a misunderstanding on my part. I now support the public option since apparently it'll be paid for out of the politicians' own pockets.
