Former Vice President Al Gore told guests at the Tennessee Democratic Party’s annual Jackson Day dinner that the country has “a moral duty to pass health care reform."

We also have a moral duty to ignore anything that comes out of Al Gore’s mouth...
How many times does this guy feel he needs to remind us that he's utterly shameless?
The only invoke “morals” when it suits their agenda.
Well, Mr. Gore, it’s a moral issue to stop socializing this nation!
Right back at ya.
That means that health care providers have no individual rights. The collective right of the people to receive health care would supersede the provider's individual right to set their fees, their hours or change their occupational status or even decide how to apply their skills and knowledge. A collective right, by practical definition, is a state right because it is a right that is provided by the government to all not protected by the government as something possessed by each person. It is also a state right because it supersedes the individual rights of others when the two come into conflict.
It isn't stated in any of the bills that a patient's rights to care supersedes a provider's right to set fees and hours etc, but it doesn't need to. Rights are always adjudicated in the courts. The legislation simply establishes the foundation for the courts to rule in favor of the patient's collective right to health care.
Weiner’s view is collectivist, fascist and totalitarian. Collectivist because it is superior to an individual right. Fascist because it is overseen by one entity the Federal government. Totalitarian because the Federal government is the true possessor of this collective right and the administrator and enforcer of it as well.
Congressman Weiner's view is the underlying philosophy of the entire Health Care Reform legislation the House and Senate have put forth. Consider the setting up of community watch dogs to monitor various health parameters of citizens in the Senate version of the bill. Look at pages 382 - 393.
TITLE I—QUALITY, AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AMERICANS
Even the citizens themselves will be subject to state set regulations on their behavior in order to fulfill the human right of universal health care. It isn't the individual's liberty that is being protected by that it is the state's control over its health care system that is being guarded. How much clearer can it be that these bills abrogate the concept of individual rights?

Excuse me now while I find a bucket to barf into...
Ya, Al talk to us about Morals. Who did you work for for 8 years?
This from the party that stomped on every moral value we had in this country and laughed in our face when we complained?
What moral duty does gore speak of? Our duty to give up, lay down and die so they can save face after bankrupting medicare, medicaid and their holy grail social security and not have to pay back the money they took from us all these years because we did our moral duty and died for them??

They know that Americans “cling to religion” that is why the shameless religious left try to pull the wool over your eyes and declare that this is biblically called for.
Of course, if you don’t follow their bible, then you should be exempted from their religious obligations.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha . . . . . . . . !!!!!
“Gore” and “moral” just don’t belong in the same sentence . . . . or headline.
Hey Al, it’s not moral to live in a 10,000 square foot house, fly around the country in a private jet and then preach to the rest of us that we have to live in mud huts and ride bicycles. Screw off, Algore.
Just think if the Democrats had succeeded in stealing the election, we would have gone through September 11, 2001 with that at the helm. Scary, is it not?
