It's Still Government-Run Healthcare Without Public Option
Columbia Conservative Examiner ^ | Sept. 1, 2009 | Anthony G. Martin

Posted on 09/01/2009 11:04:09 AM PDT by Welshman007

It's time for Patriots of all stripes to gear up for the second round of battles over healthcare.

In spite of getting their hands slapped by voters back home, proponents of the Obama-backed version of 'healthcare reform' are now renewing the push to approve the legislation using 2 key tactics--they are dropping the so-called 'public option' of a government corporation that would offer low-cost insurance, and they are using the name of deceased Senator Ted Kennedy to push the bill.

Both tactics are separate parts of a 'Trojan Horse.' The goal is still a government takeover of healthcare.

Why doesn’t the government stick with what they are charged with in the constitution and let the other stuff take care of itself?
Congress is in dc waaaaay tooo much and not at home with the folks.

The way the founding fathers set the gov up, congress is only a part time job for crying out loud!

States still control who can sell insurance in their state, so without a public option there isn’t much to reform at the National level.

Government has gone wild and is out of control. We must put the KIBOSH on them.

These people who are using Kennedy's name before he is cold in his grave are the same people who turned Paul Wellstone’s funeral into a political rally. They have no shame and no good taste.

Oh, contraire. How about that very issue? Require states under “full faith and credit” to recognize a plan legal in other states.

I’m calling my reps and telling them to scrap the “health” bill, because it IS a Trojan Horse, not matter how they try to mask it.

How can we trust them after seeing all the crap they put in the 1,000+ pages in the House bill.
