It appears that you are not going to give up until you lose the entire show. Your staunch position of wanting to negotiate with the Democrats and the liberals of your own party gives away the weakness of that position and its hopelessness.
Some say, "Health care reform continues to dominate the agenda in Washington – and rightly so. We need a comprehensive approach to ensure Texans and all Americans have access to affordable care. This is one of the most important changes we can make to improve quality of life and it requires a thoughtful, deliberative debate and bi-partisan solutions."
Why does health care require debate and bi-partisan solutions? Why can you not see that it is government interference in health care that is the problem?
Had the government refrained from interfering in the automobile manufacturing business General Motors would not be a government owned company today. If both Bush and Obama has tended to the rightful business of the presidency Chrysler would probably still be an American company today. If Congress had kept out of the corporate welfare business and the political election pay back business the United States would not be facing the most horrendous deficit of its history.
And yet you continue. The House of Representatives recently passed the so-called Cap & Trade legislation which is nothing but an enormous tax on the American people, one which will ultimately destroy our economy thereby delivering it up to the whims of Barack Obama and the Social/Democrat party.
Now you want to mess around with health care. You want to try your untrained hand at delivering health care services. Why? You don’t know what you’re doing. Stop it. Get the House of Representatives back to doing what it should be doing and get it out of the business of medicine before it is too late for all of us.
A recent report said, "A bipartisan approach to this problem is our best bet at meaningful reform. Changes to our health care system will have an enormous impact on every single American, and it is absolutely essential that the reforms we implement are appropriate and properly designed."
Our best bet? I will bet on the doctors, nurses, medical assistants and the privately owned and competitively operated American health care system over Congress any day of the week.
"Absolutely essential? Just as it was absolutely essential that the so-called stimulus bill be passed without reading it? Without knowing where the money was going? Or how much would be spent? And when?
And what exactly do you think appropriate and properly designed means? Members of Congress, most of whom have never run a business of any kind and most of whom have no medical training or experience whatsoever are going to design a health care delivery service?
Stop this insane tinkering with our health. Stop this idiotic tampering with our republic. Stop second guessing us. Stop pandering to the liberal interests of both political parties.
STOP NEGOTIATING! YOU ARE ABOUT TO GIVE AWAY THE STORE!
Use your best efforts at thwarting the Democrats, not aiding and abetting them. Use your influence to change their vote instead of seeking out how to best allow them to change yours. America does not need its medical services industry changed. It is the finest health care delivery service in the world. The best that has ever existed. And if Congress will leave it alone, it can only get better.
There are matters which should be given the attention of legislators the country over, including you. But so far, you haven’t even looked at them. So far you have only asked yourselves, "How can we cooperate with the man in the White House? How can we show our bi-partisanship?"
How about showing some leadership for a change? How about leaving some hope for America to remain free, independent and productive instead of overseeing its repugnant slide into socialism and tyranny?
