Pelosi's D-Day

     Saturday, November 7 is the day that Nancy Pelosi is going to have the House vote on the "'Affordable' Health Care for America Act".  This is the famed "public option" bill you all have been hearing about.  DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE A.M.A and AARP, THIS WILL DESTROY AMERICAN HEALTH CARE!!!  Currently, America has the best health care in the world.  Short waiting periods, first-class responsiveness and NO RATIONING is what brings people from countries such as Canada, Britain, and France to America to receive treatment for their illnesses.  In Canada, Britain, and France you have to wait months for something as simple as a CT scan.  All these countries have one thing in common; GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTHCARE. 
     A young, healthy person can buy basic health insurance for about $57 a month.  If this bill passes and is signed into law, that same young healthy person will have to pay $145 dollars a month.  You all may wonder why this is so.  It is so because that same young healthy person will be required to foot the cost for one of the "government approved" plans that comes with this bill as well as all the bureaucracy that comes with it. 
     The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office scores this bill as costing $1.2 TRILLION dollars.  We simply cannot afford this.  Revenues to the IRS are down 30 percent and it's not bound to get any better.  The only way Obama and the Democrats can pay for this is by to raise taxes when people are already being squeezed by unemployment, family budget cuts as well as local taxes that are rising and by borrowing money from China.  Do we really want to indenture our grandchildrens' savings to the Chinese?  I didn't think so. 
     When you think about whether to support this plan, just remember this; do you want the same government that can't balance the budget, cover everyone entitled to Medicare and Medicaid or have people actually at the counter at the post office getting their grubby little paws into your health and wealth. 
     I urge you to call your representative to tell them to vote NO on this monstrocity.  Go to http://www.house.gov/ to find the name and number of your repsenentative and LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!!
