On Wednesday, President Obama held a news conference, which was designed to enlist public support for his universal healthcare plan. I think it is pretty safe to say that the President's remarks created more questions than he answered.
There isn't any question that there is a disconnect between the President and the American people on the issue of health care. Most Americans do not want government controlled health care. They do want lower costs.
Like most Americans, I find myself asking again and again, why the rush to adopt a national health care plan that will consume 1/6 of our federal budget? Isn't this an important issue that we should take our time on, debate fully all of the proposals being floated, and make sure that everyone, including our legislators, has a chance to read the bill?
The Obama Administration continues to say that the issue has been debated for years. That may or may not be true, but what is true is that the bills being proposed on Capitol Hill have not been debated!!! In fact, no one seems to know what is in them
The President cites as a reason for quick action, rising costs of health care. Yet even the Congressional Budget Office says the plans being offered will not decrease costs, and in fact, will increase them. Seems like a good time to get our figures straight before we try to pass any legislation...

my comment:
Time is our friend here. Any attempt to push Health Care through by the House rules will be an affront to We the People.
Constitutionally, the control of Healthcare by the Federal Government is limited. It cannot become as Medicare is.
The Feds can however unify the States by providing the framework for private of State system to impede the undue costs within Health care. They can end lawsuits; make mandatory HSA/IRA for anyone under age of 50 (eventually replacing Social Security);
Socially, there is not any permission by the Constitution to allow Federal Health Care. However, States can delve into it if their Constitution allows it. It would behoove us to center on States converting their Health care for the disadvantaged to the HSA/IRA plans.
Details are what needs cleaned up. The placing records online can be an invasion of privacy, but so is today's world. Make data private property and streamline healthcare, stopping duplicate services and providing greater care.
We need to divest ourselves of Federal Social programs, not add to them. The first settlers tried the commune approach of equal distribution and they nearly starved to death due to slackers not providing their fair share. Don't end the American dream by doing the same here, ending the ability to get ahead.

We have your Back. This has hit widely and it is opening a lot of eyes to why we need to git to those tea parties. They are our future! The Main Stream old media ignores the numbers. On 03/23, Orlando two grassroots moms, put on a Tea party in support of the Fight against the Tyranny of the Federal Government. The largest gathering ever in Orlando showed up!!!
The Constitutional Right has been attacked here as you have clearly made historical document of the oppression coming from Central Governments, a State, a Country by the U. S. Constitutions decree!
Excuse me for the error, the U. S. of America are no longer that any more. Today the Senate passed the American Volunteer Act that provides for 25% of the population of America to be employed, in his Civilian Army. Imagine an ACORN the size of THAT!!! Now it is the D. S. of America. Domain
The last date of needed Repentance by the Federal Government in the Surrender to the Constitution is 9/12. Glenn Back has birthed this date. We don't need to go there. Let us but agree to set up a council of 50 State Elders to provide for a plan of recovery from where we have strayed. Set up any social program separate and voluntary under these Elders, elected by the people as the Administrator of General Welfare programs, keeping the programs balanced on Constitutional.
Doctor Ron Paul has been the sage of the Century. His passion for the Truth in this Nation's Conduct made everyone feel guilty for being so ignorant. We have been snookered as a people. Reminds one of the people back in the Old Soviet Empire having one source of news, Provda and the people in that Nation believed it to be true, whether they wanted to or not. It became a habit.
Now that all is so clear it is time America say to say to Doctor Paul, "You Are Right!"
However, Ron Paul has a political issue with Taxes and has not supported the Fair Tax Plan. I know he would if he opened to it. If not, please come forward and debate it. The Doctor would very much agree to this. Starting on July 4th, 2009, all the taxes in your paycheck are officially over, and considered illegal for 6 months. Then set in place the Fair Tax Plan on January 1st, 2010. That way, we can keep the paycheck as gross, 22% increase in average Salary. Just ask Mike Huckabee about it.
Why are we not holding a summit of Conservative Leaders in both the Government and the private sector. This is America, in liberty and justice for under the Constitution, the Greatest Document ever created to bring FREEDOM!!!
