Fascinating that the most vulnerable members of society–children–were somehow overlooked by Obamacare…I suppose Obamacare is all about CONTROL instead of actually improving healthcare…

I understand the Health Care Reform Law has a provision that will allow states that can come up with a better plan to opt out of the Federal program. The states, as I understand it, will not have to require mandatory coverage. May I suggest that if this is true that Mulvaney and his rag tag band of Mark Sanford groupies try to do something positive, that is, have an original idea and propose an alternative.

Of course they won’t because they don’t really have ideas, just some BS about letting the “free market” work its magic. So since this publicity stunt, on our dime, is designed to bring the true believers to the polls why don’t they just go whole hog and include a ballot intiative to re-affirm the Confederate flag’s location but with the stipulation to make the flag bigger and they may also wish to include include a few words about designating the Hunley the official SC State Submarine. INDEED!

Well, FITS has shown that he is without any further doubt, a product of the SC education system. The “bill” is not a “takeover”, “socialist” or any other of the “gotcha” cliches attributed to it. Yes, 30M more citizens will have access to health insurance. So, that’s a bad thing? Flawed, yes, but the present bill is hardly worth the demonizing that the repubicans and their hangers-on have claimed. Of course, they could have participated – I mean really participated, not just waved blank pieces of paper – in the process and we may have gotten a better result. Instaed they opted to follow the lead of SC’s junior sentator Dimwitt and “just say no.” So now it’s time for the voters to say NO to those who only work to preserve their power and not deal with the issues we face as a country.

I truly hate it for children who really need coverage that the Dems didn’t include insurance portability, HSA’s, and most of all – Tort reform – in their socialistic montrosity of a bill….that they clearly didn’t proofread before trotting out kids as props and rushing it to Pres Obama for his signature.

Wonder if the big media will report THIS?

Republicans are nothing but obstructionists and are going to ruin this country yet. They are acting like naughty children, in an adult world. Do they realize how bad they look? Too bad, in SC, the politicians are mirroring the people which is even worse.

Mohanna,
I guess I should just quit my job. Why bother working? After all, Obama’s gonna take care of my bills, by taxing all those “rich” people, right?

Yeah, keep that dang government away from the VA and Medicare while you’re at it. The very idea of more people getting health care, especially those who didn’t have the foresight to have a full time job (two part-timers don’t count) or be healthy enough to merit it in the first place is just infuriating–and probably bad for America.

If this healthcare bill is not a sign at how much we need to restore the peoples(states) power.Then there is no sign that will do it.We are lost to being the sheep we have become.We let a minority of people pull us around and shit on the Constitution.It is shameful.
You people who can not understand how the 17th amendment has screwed this country will soon learn to understand…but it will be the hard way
