SENATORS MUST DEAL WITH DEATH THREATS

Now that the health care reform bill has been signed into law, we have at least 10 senators that have received threats and even some death threats. What bothers me most of all is that the American people should NOT have to have this happen at all.

Instead of congress working the bill and changing things that should be changed and working together, they are all acting like spoiled brats. The republicans in congress are making themselves look really bad to the American people and they are too stupid to know it ! Also the tea party are not doing any better.

The way some members of congress have acted is (in my opinion) causing other people to go out and make these threats and throw rocks threw glass windows and so on. There are a lot of things in the health care bill that were republican ideas. I honestly think they are just mad because IF this health care reform works it will not look good on the republicans at all come November. So, I think what they are doing is trying to destroy the bill as much and as fast as they can.

Take a look at this video and then read on to see how this conflict with the health care law should work. Now that you have seen the video please allow me to tell you in my way of thinking what should be happening at this point in time

1. Any member of congress that is acting like an idiot and whining and calling other senators names such as baby killer and whatever else they are doing needs to stop! Also, Senator McCain's comment that the republicans will not corporate for the rest of the year with the democrats on any legislation because the republicans are upset about the health care bill, should not be tolerated and Mr. McCain should be fired for such a stupid remark. Senators both republican and democrat should sit down together and work this thing out

2. As it stands now, the republicans will try their best to change so much in this bill that it will destroy it and the health care bill or at what is left of the health care bill will be of NO use to the American people. i admit the bill was not perfect by any means but, no legislation ever is and at least tis bill is a step in the correct direction

3. We all need to remember and understand that 45,000 people die each year in this country because they can not have access to proper health care. that is a lot of people to die just because of no health care and we all need to stand together and do what we can for these people and see that their health care needs are being taken care of. Doing so is not only a good thing to do. It is also good for our country.

So, congress... get the lead out and stop acting like a bunch of spoiled brats. If you all need to make changes to this bill then, work together and do it. All we ask is that when making changes to the bill, Please let something in the bill that will be good and benefit the people who need it most The American People !

Passage of the Health Care Bill

It seems that now the health care bill is passed. If you were all for the bill then that is a good thing. if you didn't want it to pass then I guess you are a not a happy camper. As with any bill that congress takes on there are good parts of the bill and there are parts that are not good.

What I can not understand is the way the republicans in congress are acting. They have said many times that they had their own health care bill to be considered. If that were the case then, maybe the republicans should have brought the bill fourth and lay it on the table for all to see. They didn't do that! One reason they did not do that may be because maybe they didn't have one in the first place. I can tell you all right now that some of these republican congressmen/women make me sick to my stomach when I hear them accuse the democrats of so called arm twisting and back room/closed door deals to get enough votes to pass the bill. Not that I do not think maybe some of that didn't take place because it probably did take place. However, I feel that the republicans have done that sort of thing many times to get what they want and nobody will convince me otherwise. I hate to say it but that kind of deal is just part of politics.

Now lets all take a look at Senator John McCain... John McCain is a senator that I always had respect for. He is a man that loves his and has served it well for many many years. Yet this very same man said in a article, that democrats should not expect any corporation on any legislation for the rest of this year.

Democrats shouldn't expect much cooperation from Republicans the rest of this year, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) warned Monday.

McCain and another Republican senator decried the effect health reform legislation has had on the Senate, a day after the House passed the upper chamber's bill.
GOP senators emerged Monday to caution that the health debate had taken a toll on the institution, warning of little work between parties the rest of this year.

"There will be no cooperation for the rest of the year," and "They have poisoned the well in what they've done and how they've done it."
 McCain said during an interview Monday on an Arizona radio affiliate.

Now to me his threat sounds like just that a threat. It also sounds like a spoiled child that didn't get want he wants and is striking out in anger. Most of all it makes me feel uneasy about the republican party not voting in favor of any legislation that might be good for the American people all because the republicans are upset with the democrats. Now, tell me is that the kind of people we want making laws for us? I hardly think so and anyone with a brain can see my logic on that statement.

I have often wondered if any of the republicans and any of the 34 democrats really care about the more then 45,000 people who die each year in this country because they are not covered with any health insurance? A lot of the uninsured are honest, hard working people that are not covered by employer health insurance or they can not get health insurance due to pre existing condition. Maybe they are not covered at work and they just can not afford health insurance on their own. Do these people deserve to get sick and die just because they can not get health insurance? The answer to that question for anybody who has a brain and a heart is NO!

This health care legislation will indeed take care of the ones that can not take care of themselves. and it will make life a lot easier for families that can not afford to have their children covered with health care . Yes it will cost money however, the United States government has wasted much more money for bull crap things and now money can be spent for something worth while.

AARP has stated the health care bill will indeed do a lot to help our senior citizens. And why not because the senior citizens in this country have already paid their dues now it is time to give back to them.

The one thing I have always felt is that republicans represent the wealthy. they really do not care about the average citizen and the way they handled during this health care bill just proves it. They used scare tactics in hopes to get this bill defeated and it did not work. Now they want to try to sue the federal government to get some aspects of the bill gone. Well, good luck to them because I really do think that as far as this law is concerned, federal law would supersede state law. Most of the time that is the case.

Even if you did not want this bill to become law, you should be happy it passed. the reason why is this... You either wanted or did not want health care to become law' either way the passage of this bill has done one thing. That thing is... This bill if nothing else has opened the eyes of the American people. if nothing else, the American people will be watching our elected officials a lot more closely now then ever before! As well as if the American people do not like what any of our law makers are doing ( such as the republicans making threats to not cooperate in any legislation be it good or bad) then at that time the American public will have the right to get them fired!!

Until next time my friends stay healthy and take care.

38 States says No to part of the Federal Health bill Law

Idaho was the first state among 38 states that are against of the health care bill or at least the part that says the federal government can fine a person if that person does Not purchase health insurance once and if President Obama's health care bill is passed. The law that Idaho passed will make it so that no one in that state will be finned for Not purchase health insurance

Now let's look at this for a minute. First off, in this country we for the first time have a chance to see that all Americans who are not covered with health insurance can now be covered once and if this bill is passed. For the first time in this country, a person who cannot afford health coverage due to a pre-existing condition or because that person works for an employer that does not provide health coverage for employees can now be covered.

The other thing that is obvious is that once people can start to get healthier, they will be more productive at their jobs and just more productive in their everyday lives. It is important to note that people who are productive on their everyday lived are less likely to be hanging out on the street looking for and often finding trouble.

On the other hand congress especially the republicans claim that we can not afford health care. They are correct, we can't. However, we also can not afford to spend over 700 billion dollars to bail out a bunch of banks and wall street crooks as we are doing. We also can not afford to have members of congress to charter private and military jets to fly them and family and friends on business/pleasure trips and pay for the meals that congress at fancy restaurants but, we are paying for all those things too with our tax dollars.

We need to sort of do some starting over as in what we allow our government officials to spend our money on. we need to have a system where our government officials can and will be held accountable for ever dollar they spend of our tax money.

it does not matter at all if we can afford national health care or not in this country for the simple fact that if the bill passes and government needs money to pay for it they will most likely raise taxes and or print the money needed for the program.

I for one am all for the health care reform bill and I hope the democrats deem the bill as passed since they can do that and that type of bill passage has been used before by both the republicans and democrats alike. the republicans can boo hoo all they want about it but, it still can be done in that manner

As far as 38 states passing a law that would enable Americans to not purchase health insurance once the bill is passed. They need to forget that idea due to the fact the in this case the federal law would supersede the state law and the federal law would win

It really is this simple, there are millions of Americans that desperately need health care and can not obtain it. Everyday someone dies because they did not have access to health care. This country needs this healthcare reform and I for one hope we get it and soon. In my opinion any law maker that would not vote for this bill cares NOT anything for the American public. I bet they never vote down their big fat raises that they give themselves all the time

Until next time my friends stay healthy and take care
