Feingold should live in a communist country with a small income....would not last a week. So 300 million people have to give up their freedom just to insure 30 million. That is a lot to give up for just a "few" people. Again, the minority rules!!

The dems are in serious DENIAL. Exerpt from an e-mail I received from Senator Russ Feingold - WI (D):
"The bill before the Senate is not perfect, but it contains some good reforms while expanding coverage to more than 30 million Americans who currently go without insurance. I am pleased that the bill will decrease the deficit by $130 billion over the next ten years, and by another $650 billion in the ten years following that. And, while it is not as strong as I would have preferred, I support the inclusion of a public health insurance option, as well as provisions rewarding physicians for the quality of care provided rather than the quantity of care, and ending the denial of coverage due to preexisting conditions. I look forward to the opportunity to strengthen the bill during Senate consideration. I will evaluate the bill after the amending process is complete, and decide at that point whether I can support this legislation, or whether it is health reform in name only. You can find the text of the bill at http://democrats.senate.gov/reform/patient-protection-affordable-care-act.pdf. "

WHAT???? This bill will SAVE money????? Don't think so, Russ! Oh, and note that we are back to only 30 million people without insurance.....

Obamacare Not a Good Fit for Women (by Heritage)

Kristen Cart Comment by Kristen Cart 1 day ago
I have said for a long time that the most hazardous time of your life was in the womb. How much more so with a subsidy to forcibly remove you. "If you make it out of the womb, you will be cheaper in the tomb!" What a wonderful summary of our future under Obama care. That slogan will be coming to a Tea Party sign near you. Awesome post, Jackie.

THE HEALTH CARE BILL SHOULD BE RENAMED THE DEATH CARE BILL; IT IS A KILLER, A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING. IT FUNDS AND PROMOTES ABORTION AND EUTHANASIA-DEATH FOR BABIES AND THE ELDERLY OUR THE WEAKEST AND MOST DEFENSELESS. IT WILL KILL THE DOCTOR-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP AND INSERT A GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRAT INTO CONFIDENTIAL MATTERS. IT WILL KILL THE HIPPOCRATIC OATH OF "FIRST, DO NO HARM". IT WILL KILL THE BEST MEDICAL RESEARCH SYSTEM IN THE WORLD. IT WILL KILL THE INCENTIVE TO GO TO MEDICAL SCHOOL. IT WILL KILL THE US ECONOMY WITH HIGH TAXES ON SMALL BUSINESSES-THE BACKBONE OF OUR GNP. IT WILL KILL THE US CONSTITUTION WHICH PROHIBITS AND LIMITS THE POWER OF GOVERNMENT. IT WILL KILL THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY. IT WILL KILL THE RIGHT TO SELF DEFENSE BY MAKING GUN OWNERSHIP A HEALTH CARE CONCERN. IT WILL KILL FREEDOM, BECAUSE ALL OUR CHOICES: FOOD, CAREERS, LEISURE ACTIVITIES, ETC. WILL BECOME HEALTH CARE CONCERNS. IT WILL HAVE TO KILL CHRISTIANITY IN ORDER TO FOIST ALL THIS DEATH UPON US. IT IS NOT FINANCIALLY SUSTAINABLE AND IT WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL.THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS KILLED EVERY ENTITY IT HAS TAKEN OVER-PUBLIC SCHOOLS, THE MILITARY, THE HOUSING INDUSTRY, THE CAR INDUSTRY, ETC. ALL AMERICANS MUST FIGHT FOR THE DEFEAT OF GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTH CARE AS IF THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIVES, BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY ARE. IF YOU MAKE IT OUR OF THE WOMB, YOU WILL BE CHEAPER IN THE TOMB. REMEMBER THE GOLD(EN) RULE-WHO EVER HOLDS THE GOLD MAKES THE RULES.

VOTE STRONG / DON STRONG
CANDIDATE OATH / PLEDGE:

"I declare and affirm that I will hold myself bound to bear allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and will use my personal energies and resources to convince the leadership of the political party, for which I am a candidate, to focus its legislative actions only to issues that do not usurp the rights that are reserved by the Constitution to the States or to the People. I will not bear allegiance to any political party or party leadership when its direction, policies, or proposed legislation or actions conflict with the Constitution of the United States of America, so help me God."

Constitution
Commit to strict adherence to the US Constitution. Propose and support legislation requiring Congress to identify and verify that all new proposed legislation meets specific US Constitution guidance. Study legislation presently on the books to determine adherence to strict Constitutional principles with the goal of eliminating all unconstitutional executive orders, bills, laws, resolutions, regulations and requirements.

Budget/Economy/
Balance the Federal Budget. Stand firm for capitalism principles as the bedrock for American free market. Lower or eliminate taxes on businesses to encourage job creation. Eliminate the Death tax, thus allowing small businesses and family farms the ability to be transferred to the next generation without costly schemes. Investigate and demand prosecution for any criminal or ethical violations associated with the 2008/2009 economic crisis.

Defense
The defense of the United States is the primary mission of the government, without which all other rights and privileges mean nothing. That requires a military force that is second to none in technology and advanced weaponry together with the infrastructure to support an advanced global fighting force. Before sending America’s men and women into battle, a congressional declaration of war must be approved.

Energy
Our country has abundant sources of energy, but our government has stifled development. Drill off our coasts, begin processing our abundant resources of shale in the western states, and build nuclear power plants. Use our coal resources to create synthetic fuel, and use technology to make the burning of coal cleaner.

Immigration
Laws on the books must be enforced. This starts with adequately funding our Border Patrol. A nation is not a nation unless it can control its borders. Interpreters or defense attorneys cannot be provided for illegal aliens at taxpayer expense. There is room for only one flag and one language, English. All Federal and State documents, including voting ballots and drivers license testing, shall be in English only.

Health-care
We have the finest health-care system in the world. Socialized medicine would be a disaster for this country. Innovation and the proper use of technology can streamline and reduce the cost of health-care in America to where every American citizen can receive the superior care that our system produces.

Respect for Life
Oppose destruction of life, truly respect God's power of creation and the blessing he gives us in our children. Also, with the number of qualified couples seeking children to adopt, babies born from unwanted pregnancies can expect a loving family to care for them.

Marriage
The sanctity of marriage by definition is the bond of holy matrimony between one man and one woman.

Term Limits
Professional politicians have nearly destroyed the United States as a nation of freedom, liberty and the capitalist system. Term limits for Representatives and Senators should be limited to three terms and one term respectively.

Federal Reserve
The Federal Reserve should be brought under total US Government audit, but preferably abolished with appropriate functions returned to the United States Treasurer.

Senator Tom Coburn, M.D., and Senator John Barrasso, M.D., discuss the 2074-page Senate Democrats' health care reform bill. It will raise Americans' taxes, raise insurance premiums, and cut Medicare.
