Pelosi's Socialist Health care bill passed the House.

The trojan horse beast passes the House. Once again, so much for the bill being posted online so Americans could read the bill before it was voted on. The slogan "thiefs in the night" is extremely appropriate in describing Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat hordes that voted alongside her. The final vote was 220 in favor and 215 against. One self serving Republican voted in favor of the monster bill. Republican Joseph Cao from Louisiana was the sole Republican to cross the aisle and support this horrendous bill. Cao more then likely voted in favor of the bill, because his district is hugely Democrat and was the district that was formerly represented by William Jefferson. It doesn't matter the reason, Joseph Cao needs to be added to the 2010 midterm hit list. 39 Democrats joined the 176 Republicans in opposing this dangerous bill. Nancy Pelosi "likened the legislation to the passage of Social Security in 1935 and Medicare 30 years later". Here's a funny fact about the liberals most celebrated and worshiped social dependency programs. Those programs are all BROKE and have yet to work! Their programs are adding hundreds of billions of dollars to the national debt and hurting America, yet these mental clowns actually believe that these programs are "good for America". I truly despise Nancy Pelosi. If the 48% of Americans that didn't vote for Obama wouldn't have to suffer the consequences of this terrible bill, I would say let the 52% suffer from their own ignorance. Unfortunately, that isn't going to be the case. If this bill isn't stopped in the Senate, people who exercise common sense are going to have to suffer right along side the clueless slap happy liberal drones. Anybody with a brain knows that the public option is nothing more then a poison pill to kill off private insurers thus leaving the government as the sole provider once the dust settles. In the House bill that nobody read
"it would require most Americans to carry insurance and provide federal subsidies to those who otherwise could not afford it". In other words, the government will take away a person's freedom of choice and demand they obey what they say or else. Here's another scary provision of the bill the nobody read before it was voted on, "Both consumers and companies would be slapped with penalties if they defied the government's mandates". This is how the government is going to snuff out private insurers and become the only game in town.

"Insurance industry practices such as denying coverage on the basis of pre-existing medical conditions would be banned, and insurers would no longer be able to charge higher premiums on the basis of gender or medical history. In a further slap, the industry would lose its exemption from federal antitrust restrictions on price gouging, bid rigging and market allocation."

The government can lose all the money it wants covering pre-existing medical conditions and not raising premiums to offset the costs, because they can just print money. Private insurers don't have that "option". Can we say "unfair competition"? The claim about the government providing "choice and competition" is a bold faced lie. If the New York Yankees went to compete against a high school baseball team, how can the high school team compete against the Yankees? This bill if signed by Obama will cripple private insurers. That is what liberals wanted all along. No one read the bill. Liberals want to take over one-sixth of the American economy, drive the country deeper into debt, take more personal freedoms away from citizens just so they can emulate the Canadian Health Care system? This is what they admire?!



If Doctors can't charge for their services, what is the incentive for them to practice medicine? If Doctors drop out of practicing medicine, would that not create shortages among doctors using the simple principal of supply and demand?



Liberals are harmful to the health of Americans. I do agree with Barack Obama in something he said today.

Obama said "Democrats have a 70-year history of creating and defending programs like Social Security and Medicare". Obama also said that today's vote "is going to define the difference between the Republican and Democratic parties for decades."

He couldn't be more right but not in the way he thinks the American people will define the two parties after this vote and if he signs the bill into law. The vast majority of the polls show that Americans do not support this bill or socialized medicine period. Democrats do defend social dependency programs that keep people in need, grows the size of government and adds more debt onto backs of future generation. Is that something for liberals to really be proud of?
