Health Care Insurance
My name is Robin and I have Epilesy. My concern is Health Care
I am fortunate that I have medical and prescription benefits. If I did not I would really be in trouble my medications would cost me more than what I pay for my rent.
What is being done to help families who have epilesy and have to take expensive medications and don't have the insurance to help them. Wouldn't we have to pay more for those who have to be
hospitalized because of and attack. I was lucky when I had a my
Grand Mal Seizure I was in my doctors office where I worked.
Imagine if I were to have in the street I could of really been
in bad shape. I was forunate.
It's bad enough we have to deal with the work force. We should not have to deal with being uninsured as well.
I say this for the people who are not as forunate like myself and others. If we DO NOT TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN THEN WHO WILL.
Thank you Robin

Obama claims to be a Christian, and is proud of it. But, he has no respect for God, His word, the Bible, and God's commandments, in the traditional family values of our founding-fathers such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, as well as Ronald Reagan. American people are smarter than that, rather being fooled by Obama's smooth talking, and promising anything to get votes. America deserves better than that. We need a tested, experienced and qualified leader or Commander-in-chief in a dangerous world, to deal with seasoned leades such as Vladimir Putin of Russia, and others from North Korea, China, Pakistan, India, Iran, Syria and Israel. Is Obama ready to answer phone at 3 A.M. in the White House, and deal solve international crises in the next 6 monhts?? Both Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden do not think he is prepared or fit to be president. He is the most extreme lefitst socialist in the history of Senate, worse than Jimmy Carter, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry and John Edwards. We cannot trust Obama, who has a long record of flip-flops, keeping changing his mind over the years, with ties of the radical people such as Bill Ayers, Rashid Khalidi, Louis Farrakhan and Rev. Jeremiah Wright, as well as ACORN. The Arabs call Obama "one of us," and the Muslim leader Louis Farrakhan declares him "Messiah." He will raise taxes to pay for the biggest well-fare system, and finance his big spending and goverment-control. When he cancels George Bush's tax-cut programs, he will automatically raise ALL our taxes.
vote
why not obama
Ignorant people spreading lies
Sorry Lorraine but you shouldn't be lecturing Jane when you're "facts" come from a Corsi book. the book is a load of crap -- check out politifact.org and search Corsi. You are like Corsi in that you will distort information to support your backwardass thoughts. You need to go back to watching Jerry Springer and leave the thinking to educated people.
Socialist?
Why is it that when we use money for the poor it is called "Socialism", but we use money to bail out corporations, it's called "Bailout"?
Republicans always claim to want "small government", yet we're spending $700 Billion in govt. funds to write a blank check to fix this mess. Add to that, the use of the disgusting power of Eminent Domain for economic development, and I think the Republicans should no longer claim to want government to shrink. In the town I live in, Arlington, TX, our city seized hundreds of homes/businesses to turn over the the Dallas Cowboys to use for their private stadium. We're also seeing an explosion of private tollroads and double-taxation for road building. This is all happening on the Republican's watch and needs to stop immediately.
Obama,McCain/Palin
Jane Brown of PA: Where is your head,Jane?! In the sand somewhere?? Obama is telling you exactly what you want to hear,
you need to read The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, the book is fact, researched by Corsi for several yrs. after he started hearing about Obama!! It is all about his life and he has admitted to much of it, there are just certain things that he doesn't want "we the people" to know about, those facts are carefully not spoken of by the "biased" news media!! Obama did attend classes in Islam while his mother was married to his step-father and lived in Indonesia!! He is a deceitful(liar), and he is as far left as you can be, do we want our country to become communist??? Michelle Obama said,"for the first time in my life, I am really proud of my country!" Wow!! We really do need her to be the First Lady of this country! (Like Fun!!) Do you know that the Rev. Jeremiah Wright is "God-Father" to one of Obama's daughter's, that's a pretty close relationship in my
estimation!!!! He sat and listened to Rev. Wright for 20 yrs., a supposed "man of God", preaching "Hate" for the rich white man and hate for America. The Rev. is rich, my goodness how did that happen! This country has done many, many things to help the African American citizens, everyone who's white isn't a "Racist". My family never owned any slaves, and the black people alive today and going back along ways were never "Slaves". I originally thought that it would be a good thing to help deepen our relationship with African Americans to have a black Pesident, but this is the wrong one!! So when I cast my vote it won't be for him! He is dangerous!!!! McCain loves his country, it is country first with him, he could have sold out this country to the communist Viet Cong while he suffered the attrocities (5 1/2 yrs.) in the prison camp. He has reached across the aisle many times, he has gone against ideas within his own party,and has disagreed many times with Pres. Bush, he is not Bush's 3rd term!! He looks healthy to me, everyone who is 72 is not the same in body and mind, some people are yrs. younger than their chronilogical age. Obama smokes; that he has hidden, he doesn't want people to know it!! McCain has wisdom with his yrs. and being in the Senate for many yrs. His wife, Cindy, is a Humanitarian and has been to many countries to help(she's been a nurse),she went to Rwanda during the terrible times of slaughter over there.I saw the videos about it on TV. Sarah Palin is not a liar!! She is a Christian! Being a Christian is to do your best to follow Jesus, the Ten Commandments, Beleive in God as your Creator, etc. It does not mean that we will be perfect and never sin again, we are still human. Yes, God is color blind, He loves everyone the same. Hate is not preached in my church, there is no way one can preach hate and say they love God!Palin first said yes to the Bridge.. and then decided against it, explained in interview with S.Hannity. She is NOT a liar!!!

Senator Obama is a real pearson, he does not tell us what we want to hear, he tells us the truth. Senator McCain says country first,not so for him it's winning first, and that is what he picked as his running mate a woman that he far removed from reality. She claims that she is a christian, the word christian means Christ like. The first time she introduced herself to the American Public she lied about the bridge to nowhere, that is not Christ like,she has continued to lie about every thing. This is one for all those people what will not vote on the issuse but vote for or against some one for their color God is color blind, he made us all in his image, the world would be very boring if every body was white or black.
People check your self at the door. A lie is a sin, Palin is a wolf dressed up in sheeps clothing.
