Whenever the Democrats get into trouble, and boy are they in trouble, they trot out the same three issues to try and throw the Republicans off balance: 1. Defense cuts 2. Gun control 3. Some new homosexual issue. You know they’re scared and losing when they trot out these three issues. The Republicans just need to keep hammering on jobs and the economy.

Once Obamacare kicks in, then Providers will have no choice but to take the bargain basement rates the Government mandates. At that poin, you will see Physicians retire or leave the profession. You will see Black Market care spring up for those with $$ to pay extra, under the table to get well. That, or go to another country.

“$1.5 trillion in savings over a decade”

Written as if this is a real and substantial cut.

Rush predicted this a couple years ago.

He said the off-shore islands like the Bahamas, etc would become the place 'to go' for professional/serious medical care.

Says page not found.

But any one with an ounce of sense or who has served in the Military, knows that the gov’t rarely keeps it’s promises to the 1% of the population willing to lay their lives and limbs, and sight on the line, so the rest of the 99% can enjoy freedom. Well we are at an end and if you want that freedom you will have to FIGHT for it by kicking out RINOS, and Moderates.

All men or women seeking a political career should have 1 four year hitch in the Military starting as a E1, with no help from their millionaire or billionaire parents. Then they would truly under stand what these brave men and women sacrifice to keep this country free.

Any congress critter who fails to keep faith with the Military, will NOT keep faith with YOU!

"The House voted to accept this bill and it is law..."

A Bill can not become law without a vote of the WHOLE House and Senate.

The process is codified in law... not the outcome... minutia.

I am not “really weird”... I am “Really Conservative”. You need some serious inner perspective.
