Nonetheless, it existed in a march. It's certainly not part of the health care debate. It's conveniently used by a group of psychos. Dangerous no doubt.

It's probably as far as I want to go with race. I'm not at all qualified to do so other than acknowledge that there is a significant number that just can't stand that one of those "uppity" ones is where he is.

Aliens and sedition's....for the love of God. this is not a moral or ethical question. This is a question of rights to all Americans. IMO, We are long past a quick fix and too near a long one. No time in our history as a nation have we had so many influences and private agendas. Who Governs???

Special interests.............and I say that plural!
Hmmmm.

We are in a sad state of affairs in my opinion. No matter who's at the helm. We need to fix America.

As one who has had to suffer under a government health care system (Medicaid) I dread the thought of having to have the whole country subject to such awful care. Had it not been for Loyola University Medical Center where we were able to work with young Drs who were trying to learn to practice medicine we would have had care that was way below common standards. We drove almost 40 miles to get that care because the only ones in our area who would deal with Medicaid did so because they were so inept they couldn't keep a paying customer. There were several instances from before we went to Loyola that had we not been under the government system we could have filed a malpractice suit, but they were protected. We did file a complaint about one Dr in particular who started to do a gynecological exam with dirty gloves on from the patient before Linda.

I am not ungrateful for the medical care I was able to receive when I could not afford to pay. Don't get me wrong, but I do not want it to be mandatory on the whole country.

From what I've read of the bills proposed by the Democrats, and by the amendments proposed by Republicans and shot down by Democrats (not by what I've heard on Radio or TV) I fear for the path Obama wants to take us. I've been down part of that path.

Quote:

One week after President Obama’s speech to Congress, opposition to his health care reform plan has reached a new high of 55%. The latest Rasmussen Reports daily tracking poll shows that just 42% now support the plan, matching the low first reached in August.

A week ago, 44% supported the proposal and 53% were opposed. Following the speech last Wednesday night intended to relaunch the health care initiative, support for the president’s effort bounced as high as 51% (see day-by-day numbers). But the new numbers suggest that support for health care reform is now about the same as it was in August.
