As I was watching the morning news on ch 205 this past Sat 4/3/10 there was an announcement of a slaughter of 25 Sunni civilians in a small village in Iraq. It was reported the civilians killed had sided with the allied troops and were assisting the soldiers through information in trying to liberate their village from the stronghold of Al Queda. Every commentator of the Fox News station that reported the attack stressed that witnesses said that the attackers were probably Al Queda terrorists dressed in Iraqian soldier uniforms and some though dressed like soldiers spoke broken english with heavy Iraqian accents. Not one witness of the village in any way said or implied there were foreigners (allied soldiers) involved in the attack on the civilians. Every reporter as I watched the news that morning and during the day followed protocal and the news outline of what they were to say. But to my disappointment one female reporter a Jamie (something) probably trying to adlib and improve her ratings as a media commentator said something that I felt was out of place and detrimental to the American image and dangerous for our troops, who are trying to help the civilians while trying to survive in a hostile environment. While none of the witnesses said anything about any foreign soldiers being involved in the massacre of the Sunni civilians, Jamie while on the air asked the news correspondant who was reporting from Iraq.. (If any American soldiers were involved?) WHAT!!! WHERE DID THAT COME FROM!? No other reporters during the day or night of any media station to my knowledge, had made any reference to American soldiers being involved in what happened that day in the Sunni village. It is because of negative remarks like these and reporters like Jaime (something) that have no consideration as to the consequences of their questions and why America and its citizens are not respected by citizens of other countries and are always being verbally attacked throughout this planet, no matter how much we sacrifice ourselves in helping them in their time of need. Reporters and their editors who disregard facts and interject their opinion into witness statements and are more interested in selling the story should be held personally accountable for remarks that are detrimental to or affects the subject the story is directed towards. Are American reporters really WOLVES in sheep skins? Sometimes I wonder who controls the American media and the news. Are they really Americans who believe in Truth, Democracy and the American way of life or are they just Liberals who believe in controlling the masses with their ideas, innuendos and half truths. It has been proven down through the centuries that those that control the news many times have manipulated the truth and the outcome of events, to sale their fish wrappers. Don't believe everything you read or hear or what is being said about others in the media, follow the subjects carefully and make up your own mind!!!

During the eighteen years I have been a practicing nurse, Health insurance has only been been available, or affordable for my family and I three and a half of these years. I recently had to quit a job of nine years, a job I loved, so that I could have health insurance. This insurance costs my family and I 15% of our our gross earnings.

With Bush taking away overtime provisions for nurses, union representation illegal and no payed holidays or vacation pay available in my last job, I'm surprised there are any nurses left. But then, where else in this economy is a person responsible for people's lives going to find employment?

Maynard Keynes said that when there is a commodity shortage in a market, the cost of that commodity will nmaturally increase. This is not true. With the various state and federal Medicare and Medicaid programs, and "for profit" health care companies constanly striving to reduce the money available for lower echelon health care employees, my wages have and benefits have steadily declined the eighteen years I've been a nurse.

My Indiana congreessmen never represented my interests or even considered any of the thousands of folks here in Indiana who live in mortal fear of illness, of being brought to their knees or wiped out finacially because they are sick.

Am I bitter? Please re-read my comments if you don't understand.

How much does it costs us to not take care of so many Americans?

Obama, his comrades and his media operatives are demonizing their victims – the American people.

Imitating Castro, Chavez and the rest of the Marxist thugs in Latin America, Obama and his comrades demonize those who oppose his Marxist scams. They accuse them of what they themselves ae guilty of: racism and violence.

Racism was used to elect a U.S. hating Marxist like Obama and Obama’s buddies are violence personified. Obama's buddy William Ayers (at whose house Barack Obama launched his campaign for state senate in 1995), bombed countless locations trying to destroy our country and NEVER expressed a shred of regret for any of his crimes! He’s said that he wished he and his group had set more bombs!

Tea party members are informed and patriotic Americans who want to defend themselves -- and their children and grandchildren -- from the abomination of Obamacare and Marxism. Most of them don't see themselves as black, Latin or white. They see themselves as AMERICANS.

It's progressives (Marxists) who use race to promote hate and manipulate uneducated blacks and Latins into believing that their socialist programs help them. The truth is just the opposite. Socialist programs create a plantation mentality that keeps blacks and others poor and enslaved.

INFORMED Americans, including blacks and Latins, are against the Obamacare scam. That's why record numbers of INFORMED and PATRIOTIC blacks will be seeking office as REPUBLICANS
