Senate Votes for Cloture on Healthcare Bill

Once again the IDIOTS in Congress have voted (for cloture) and are about to vote for (and I'm sure, pass) another massive spending bill (Healthcare)--That once AGAIN, NO ONE has READ! How can they sit there and tell us what the bill has to offer and how great it will be, when they have no idea what it actually says??????  Every time they do this, it only takes a couple weeks for stuff to surface that everyone says- What the hell were they thinking? I wonder what it will be this time; after all, it's only 1/6th of the economy we are playing with.

Health Care - your opinion can make a difference

On Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment courtesy of Congressman Tom Coburn that would require all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new government-run health plan. It took me less than a minute to sign up to require our congressmen and senators to drink at the same trough--three cheers for Congressman John Fleming of Louisiana!

Congressman John Fleming (Louisiana physician) has proposed an amendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same healthcare plan they force on us (under proposed legislation they are curiously exempt).

Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his Website and sign his petition (very simple - just first, last and email). I have immediately done just that at:

http://fleming.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=55§iontree=29,55

Please urge as many people as you can to do the same.

If Congress forces this on the American people, the Congressmen should have to accept the same level of health care for themselves and their families. To do otherwise is the height of hypocrisy.

Republican, Democrat or Independant; I think we can all agree that if Congress is going to pass laws that effect the country, they too should have to live by those laws! I for one and sick and tired of the double standards.

HealthCare Reform Proposal-- In less than one page!

If they can't put a straight forward, no bull#@%^, no special interest favors, bill together with 20 pages or less (the Constitution was only 4 handwritten pages), it can only mean one thing--they are trying to hide something that they know the American people would and should object to!

Here's my HealthCare proposal:


1) Allow health insurance to be bought and sold over state lines (this opens up tons of competition). One of the primary Constitutional responsibilities of Government is to ensure Interstate Commerce. By blocking insurance companies from selling over state lines, our Government has broken the Constitution.

2) Allow employers to place the money they would have spent on insurance directly into an account set up for employees to purchase their own insurance (this way we cannot loose our insurance even if we move or change jobs).

3) Apply and Enforce strict penalties on insurance companies that refuse to pay for services or drop patients.

4) Lawyers and Lawsuits:
  • A) TORT Reform and,
  • B) Block lawyers from charging clients by the hour for healthcare related suits (the hourly rate only encourages the lawyers to drag their feet for more money).
5) Medicare/Medicaid:
  • A) Loosen the restrictions of eligibility for Medicare/Medicaid, for those that cannot get private insurance (this should be restricted to legal American Citizens).
  • B)Crack down on Fraud/Waste and Abuse (if the Government cannot get control on the existing programs, why should tax payers trust them to start all over on an even larger scale).
6) Enforce our borders. We cannot keep paying for illegal's when we have legitimate citizens doing without. (Don't get me wrong, I welcome LEGAL immigration, I want people coming here who desperately desire and respect the Freedom and Liberty only found in America; these are the people that embrace our way of life, not seek to change our way of life to fit the life they left behind.)

7) If you don't like the way we do things here, YOU are FREE to LEAVE! Consider this- for every person who illegally crosses our border, there is a deserving immigrant who is denied entry!

House Passes Health Care Bill

What the hell is wrong with the people in this country? The Dems just passed their 2000 page HealthCare Takeover bill and we must all assume WITHOUT READING it!!!!!! What has happened to that little document they swore to uphold; you know, the CONSTITUTION!!!?? What the Hell...AAHHHHHHHHH!!!
For those of you who supported this bill, did you even bother to read it? I highly doubt it! For those of you who support these brain-dead morons- have you ever read the Constitution? Perhaps you should refresh your memory by reading it again.
To all of my Liberal friends, PLEASE, Wake Up before you've given up all your liberty. Remember, you may trust YOUR party to handle the things they are implementing, but can you really trust everyone who will ever get into office during your or your kid's lifetimes, to keep things running right? Don't give the Government any power over your life that you wouldn't trust to both parties.

A simple HealthCare proposal in less than 1 page!

I swear, if the Dems pass this 1900 page monstrosity of a HealthCare bill over the weekend (as I am sure non of them have actually taken the time to read or understand it), I will scream. If they cannot put a straight forward, no bullshit, no special interest favors, bill together with 20 pages or less (the Constitution was only 4 handwritten pages), it can only mean one thing--they are trying to hide something that they know the American people would and should object to!

Obama's Frightening Insensitivity Following Shooting

President Obama didn't wait long after Tuesday's devastating elections to give critics another reason to question his leadership, but this time the subject matter was more grim than a pair of governorships....
Believe it or not, this story comes from the left wing NBC; I guess somethings are bad enough, even THEY cannot put an Obama friendly spin on it.

NY-23 Election...I couldn't have said it better myself!

The Future is Looking Brighter

I was talking to a good friend of mine the other day who expressed a feeling of despair with the direction our country has gone this past year. Like me, she is a strong Conservative, Christian woman, but she has lost faith in our leaders and is beginning to lose hope that our country can still turn around. I hope this election day shows her that we CAN effect change, but we have to stand up and fight (non-violently of course), for the principals we believe in! Stand up and fight for our family values! Stand up and fight for our children and their future! Now is not the time to give up! Now's the time to dig our heels in, take off the gloves and get our voices heard! Already we are making a difference!

Election Results comments

Way to go Virginia, New Jersey and New York City!!! I hope Washington gets the message loud and clear that we aren't kidding when we say, "Enough's, Enough with the spending already!"  Hopefully BOTH parties (especially the Republicans) will take a sharp look at the New York 23 race. It may not go to the Conservative, Hoffman, but the fact that a real Conservative (not this center right bologna) has come so close to winning should send a message that we are tired of the 2 party politics as usual we and want some REAL people in DC.

Abortion Confusion

Can someone please tell me the difference? A man is convicted for trying to kill his unborn child...yet, had an abortion clinic killed the child, it would have been perfectly legal; where's the logic here?

It's Time to Clean House in Washington

It’s time to clean house in Congress; this means both parties! The corruption and lies are out of control. We have tax cheats and marriage cheats. We have special interest payoffs and closed door, middle of the night meetings. We have groups like ACORN AND SEIU writing stimulus bills with a price tag of nearly 1 Trillion $$ and our Congressmen and Presidents (Bush and Obama) sign them without even reading them.

It’s time we elect people that will truly fight for and uphold our Constitution (as they pledged to do when they took office).

We need a Government that is honestly ready to secure our borders and FIGHT TO WIN our wars. People that haven’t fallen for the bologna that is Global Warming. People who will promote energy independence by opening ANWAR, AND U.S. off shore oil drilling and Nuclear Energy (why is it both parties, are always granting other countries the right to pursue Nuclear energy (including IRAN), but not our own.)

It’s time we find some real Americans to run for office; people who will trust us to live our own lives, make our own life decisions, and aren't always apologizing for our country.

We may not be a perfect country, but we are the most generous country in this world. We are responsible for bringing freedom and liberty to many oppressed countries. We have removed murderous dictators from power and saved millions of lives by doing so!

It's time to stop this "hyphenated America", it is divides our country and encourages racism. We are ALL Americans! I for one refuse to cave to special interest groups or the UN. We are the United States of America not the United Nations of America. We are an INDEPENDENT PEOPLE and an INDEPENDENT NATION! If you don’t like the way we do things here, LEAVE!
