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.
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!

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).
- 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).
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!
Better a donkey in office that acts like a donkey than a donkey in elephant’s clothing making a complete ass of the GOP
