With the Western Democracies teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, starvation and collapse, all due to their wildly unpopular, government-run, universal health-care bureaucracies, why would the President wish to doom our nation to failure by going down the same path?

“Meanwhile, the nation needs health care reform.”

I have yet to see a reason why we “need” health care reform, or how do we pay for it (aside from taxing those “lucky” enough to have health insurance.

The general welfare clause of the Constitution was never intended as a grant of power to the federal government. James Madison asserted this fact in 1792, in a letter to Henry Lee, who had specifically asked that question. Madison replied that if the general welfare clause were to be interpreted as a grant of power, the Constitution “should be thrown into the fire at once.”

Also, the health care bill is not asking you to “rely on [your] neighbors,” still less on yourself. That’s exactly what it’s intended to prevent. It wants you to rely on government.

The kenyan could care less about citizens in this country without insurance. The fed has taken over Wall Street. The fed has taken over banking. The fed has taken over the auto industry. The fed naturally controls the huge government bureaucracy. What is left? What is the only major industry left? Health care and pharma is all that is left in this country. When the kenyan gets that, we will be a completely socialist country. It’s not about the people without insurance, it is about the fed having complete control of all citizens lives. And most people in this country have figured that out. It is all down hill for this administration from here.

I tell you what “mythoughtscount” – if you can find a place in the constitution that says I should take care of your health care then I will agree with you. I’m talking about it being clearly spelled out and not interpreting the document the way you libs stretch it to benefit your ideas. Where is it? Show me. I want to believe you.

So government should take care of you mythoughts? From each according to his ability, to each according to his need? Every person should contribute to society to the best of his ability and consume from society in proportion to his needs, regardless of how much he has contributed.

Sound American to you mythoughts?

Also, need I remind all those who are for the reform that are democratic. Not even your own party votes for it. Think about it. I am a hard working american. Meaning I am going to have to pay more taxes so that those who want the reform can continue to collect their welfare, health care from binge drinking and living dirty and watching t.v. waiting for your next check. Don’t be a liberal, get a job.

Larry says: And as usual,’it’s a race thing,it’s a race thing’.
It’s easier to repeat that than have to think,work….etc…..

an my thougts is this. Only the stubborn blacks will play yht ‘it’s racist’ card. I feel like a scout ou in the safari.

“watch as the black raises it’s voice, and in defense he tries making himself look swollen and his defense call ‘It’s a racist’ as he is backed in a corner and can’t think of anything logical to say.

Look, i am not racist. But please, why do you use ‘it’s because hes black, or it’s racist’ as a defense when they aren’t able to fight with wits. News flash Larry, you and others like you give the impression of stereotyping. Do you eat chicken and watermelon too? Do drink a 40 of maddog everynight?
