Although Reid and his gang know that this healthcare initiative is very unpopular, they speed on with total persistence and arrogance..they are not listening and will not listen, as they have complete contempt for the populace of this great nation...Reid, is doing his "Custer's Last Stand" before Nevada gives him his walking papers..He will be defeated, but the damage will have been done to our country. The Senate moderates and conservatives know this bill is a sham and a very bad piece of legislation, but they do not really take a stand..This bill should not get out of cloture, but unfortunately with some arm twisting it will, and we will be saddled with a monumental government boondoggle which we will never get rid of...In 2008 Liberalism reared its ugly head and now all those Obama voters have voter's remorse..They believed his rhetoric and now they will reap the harvest of the monumental transformation of not only healthcare but of our country...Is it too late to take our country back? I have an inkling in 2010 if this Congress continues to disregard the will of the people, we will be able to take back our country and Obama will become a lame duck President...

It makes no good sense for anyone to oppose healthcare reform. It seems some are more worried about Insurance companies being crowded out due to competition and lower costs than the Health of the people. Or the fact that they are more concerned for the Insurance Compaines that the small businesses who have to pay high premiums for their employees, forcing some out of business or some to set up shop elsewhere other than the United States! And why do we have so many kinds of crisis in this country????
It is too bad that we have a certain group -- the Party of No and Fear -- who are Advocates of Can't, Won't, Shouldn't, Distortion, Fear, Hatred and Divisiveness. They are a dark group, a bitter group. For too long we have been spoon-fed a bunch of lies and fear by these powers who want to immobolize us, paralyze us and confuse us and to keep us circling the Yellow Brick Road!
It is a sad fact that the Afghanistan War too is a false war. These terrorists do not stay in one place or in one country, they are all over. And we are not at war with any one country, this is a fallacy. WE are in a "struggle" with an ideology, yes or evil, yes, but we are not at war with any country. Since, we have terrorists in our own country who are not Muslims, does this make us at war with the United States?
Oh, if we only had a Brain....., Courage....., Heart/LOVE!
