National Health Care

When I heard the news this morning I realized that it's looking more likely that we will be getting government socialized health care.

The democrats are pushing the health care bill to honor the great escape artist and swimmer, Ted Kennedy. Nancy Pelosi said in a written statement, "Senator Kennedy had a grand vision for America, and an unparalleled ability to effect change. Ted Kennedy's dream of quality health care for all Americans will be made real this year because of his leadership and his inspiration."

He was a firm believer in health care for all so, in his memory maybe this bill should be called the Sen. Edward Kennedy Memorial Health Care Bill.

I guess the fact that 80% of the population is happy with their present health care and the majority (I don't know the actual percentage) of the citizens don't want socialized medicine really doesn't matter.

HOW VERY ASTUTE YOU ARE MOM. YES, NOT ONLY WILL THEY DO IT, BUT THEY WILL REPEAL KENNEDY'S OWN BILL. THEY WILL FOREGO THE FIVE MONTH WAITING PERIOD,WHICH HE ENACTED, TO REPLACE HIM ASSURING ONE MORE VOTE FOR "YES" TO OBAMA'S HEALTH SCARE PROGRAM. THIS IS ONE TIME I HOPE I'M WRONG ON ALL COUNTS.

We need to continue to write letters and send emails to our representatives, continue to go to town hall meetings, and as soon as the next vote comes up - we need to vote as many of these liberals out of office that we can. WE have to change this!
