Those that have studied rhetoric know that once the argument goes from political to moral grounds, there is no room for compromise. Argument is over. It is no longer about the future, it is about morality. Why is it that no politician raised the fundamental question, namely, is it the proper role of government to provide health care? Health care is a goods, not a right. Is it moral to saddle generations to come with an insurmountable debt? Is it moral to provide for an entitlement that will destroy the best medical care in the world? Is it moral to tell people that these entitlements are sustainable when they are not?

Asking that question makes Mother Pelosi laugh. There would be really very few who have the balls to ask that. Raising the "proper role of government" question is just kookery to most, even around here.

Is it moral to debase the current Health Care system with a government takeover, mandatory unions, death panels, health panels, fewer doctors, more suffering, required abortion funding, higher costs, and no choice? The moral argument is against this Obama bill.
