Then, explain why private insurance companies need subsidies from taxpayer money.

Instead of Bush damming the democrats he has had almost 8 years to come up with a solution NO attack, attack same old.

It''s all he''s ever had. Attack and slime the other side and that for him passes for decision making.

Alan Greenspan told Tim Russert this morning, that Bill Clinton was the most brilliant President he had known.

Said Greenspan, "The time when Clinton gave his State of the Union address, and someone put the wrong speech in his Teleprompter, Clinton began delivereing the address flawlessly from memory, so that no one knew the difference. A feat like that takes enormous intellectual capacity."

[Quite a difference from the moronic goofball we have as President now]

Greenspan also said Clinton''s policies were very close to his

The power of christ compels you . . . to get better and not demand free health care from the government!
Ha!

That''''s the republican health care package. Pray you don''''t get sick or injured and then go to a faith healer if you do. LOL!

Well it would seem that, according to Bush and his "Christian" supporters, he''''d block children''''s health care. I guess the sick and dying children should be sent to Benny Hinn and Pat Robertson instead for faith healing.

This is weird.. there are tons of disguised cuss words outright lies and personal attacks on this set of posts but once again when I point out a few facts my post seems to disappear - does anybody know why?
Thought I''d catch up from last night but all I found in it''s place was PAGES after Pages of cut and paste spam - isn''t THAT removable???

The gist of it - posted around 2 or 3 AM was that it was pretty illogical to have fits about a 35 million program that would save the lives of our FUTURE GENERATION yet call for a RECORD BUDGET BUSTING 200 BILLION to fund the likes of Haliburton, OPEC and BLACKWATER to pursue their War Profiteering, Price Gouging and Shooting Gallery Antics.
I pointed out that we''re protecting what is the cradle of the current terrorism - 15 of the 19 9/11 Hijackers were SAUDI as Well as that Son of a B-illionaire SAUDI Osama Bin Laden and killing innocent civilians in Iraq.
Maybe it was the comment that George''s cronies have mostly left and he''s about to be left standing there alone while the "Peter and the Wolf" music plays facing an unbelieving Public.
Oh well, guess it was too much truth for the Neocons to take.
Let''s see if this post "disappears" too.

Per usual, Bushy-boy is only thinking of his *** war, killing thousands of our men and young women, drawn into a war that we equate to Vietnam. When will this idiot decide that this war cannot be won and start supporting Americans for a change? Moving millions of children from health care certainly almost proves to me he could be called a man with no heart at all. How about taking away his health insurance for himself and his family? Perhaps if he had to go without health insurance he would be more sympathetic to the poor children in our own country. Americans need money for Americans and when that idiot will learn this is certainly beyond me.

Appeal for Redress
Sign this Appeal.
This site is an Appeal For Redress in support of our mission in Iraq.
An Appeal For Redress is an authorized means for active duty military to submit a grievance to Congress. It can be signed by Active Duty, Reserve, or National Guard military personnel.
It is authorized by DoD Directive 1325.6 and DoD Directive 7050.6.
The wording of the Appeal for Redress is:
As an American currently serving my nation in uniform, I respectfully urge my political leaders in Congress to fully support our mission in Iraq and halt any calls for retreat. I also respectfully urge my political leaders to actively oppose media efforts which embolden my enemy while demoralizing American support at home. The War in Iraq is a necessary and just effort to bring freedom to the Middle East and protect America from further attack.
If you are active duty, reservist or national guard, please Sign this Appeal.
Most service members fully support the war in Iraq and feel calls to retreat by Congress and attacks by our media on our conduct and mission act to motivate our enemy while demoralizing our support at home, directly increasing the threat we face and resulting in greater American casualties. This Appeal for Redress provides a way in which individual service members can appeal to Congress to fully support us and actively oppose media attacks on our mission and our morale.
This Appeal will be delivered to members of Congress.

Lars,,,, The only way you can compare this war with the war against Nazi Germany --
-- Bush/Cheney has the same ideals, propaganda, logic & policies of Adolf Hitler, Hermann Goering, Joseph Goebbels, & Dr. Joseph Mengele ---- They are gitting the same results as they did.

w and his lies lies lies. Due to constantly rising costs, his plan would cause a decline in coverage. The Dem plan is required to maintain coverage, and fix other problems.

I see w has his own health plan coming out sometime soon. Look for more corporate welfare, like his Rube Goldberg drug plan.
