The Common Sense Test

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

Please read HR3962

Does the Health Care bill before congress pass the Common Sense Test?

As the United States senate debates the Health Care bill before them we all must realize this bill before congress and effectively the American people “does not pass the common sense test”.

So far the debate in the senate appears much more intelligent than what I witnessed on the floor of Pelosiville, (The United States House of Representatives). I think the true issue here is that the fight is just beginning.

I think the people have really spoken that this bill does not make sense, read here. The states additionally have pointed out that the health care reform bill offloads a large burden of medicare cost distributed across the states. The states will have budget problems with this bill due to new costs to support Medicare and additionally the number of Medicare recipients will rise also.

The question continues to be: Where will the money come from to fund the program?

Political Brat will start a list of who  votes for this bill, HR3962, to pass. We think that these congressional men, women and senators who vote for this bill are putting their political careers in jeopardy. We expect our litmus test to be conducted next fall. Stay tuned in at Political Brat for the real stories behind the scene.

Please Read HR3692 Health Care Reform

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

PLEASE READ HR3692

Is it too much to ask your representative to read this bill and explain to you the legislation they are considering? Do they really understand the full implications of what they are attempting? Are massive government programs truly cost effective for the tax payers?

It would be difficult to sit here and type that we have the perfect health care system in the world. Essentially we have the best but as with all things the best has a price. Perhaps the best needs some adjusting to create a system that benefits us in more effective ways and means. The question remains: Do we need a sweeping overhaul at this time?

I think the answer is NO for a number of reasons:

Congressman John Fleming, M.D. on Health Care

Friday, November 6th, 2009

At this time we cannot afford to overhaul the health care system, we need to work on and correct the system we have before we embark on a costly program with so many unknowns.

Want to know a bit more about our Health Care crisis and the current proposal before congress? Congressman John Fleming M.D. discusses in the following video a number of issues surrounding our Health Care problems and the proposed bill H.R. 3962.

Congressman Fleming identifies and describes in clear no non-sense language the ins and outs of the situation we find ourselves in and recommends we DO NOT PASS THIS RESOLUTION in the house.

Congressman Fleming also discusses his proposed H.R. 615 amendment to the bill which would require congressional representatives to have the same health care required of all American citizens in the bill and suggests the language is not concise and full of loop holes bound to be mis-interpreted.

Please watch this video and understand the TRUE implications of this health care bill and the impact it will have on our personal freedoms while destroying the best health care system in the world.

Health Care Reform: The dog doesn’t hunt

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

I think it’s becoming all the more obvious that the dog called the “Health Care Bill H.R. 3962″ will not hunt until it is restructured and suitable for everyone. House resolution 615 is exactly what is needed to bring to light the true issues we face with this bill. First all members of Congress and all Senators MUST be enrolled in the public option for this to fly.
