Health Care for All

This week I want to talk about the gutless and testicle impaired democrats. We have a party that has promised to reform health care for all Americans. President Obama ran his presidential campaign on the health care issue, promising the public option/single payer plan. What has the democrats offered America nothing more than a watered down version of nothing. Allowing public option to be pulled out of the bill, instead the bill reads that all Americans have to buy health insurance, an insurance company's dream. Come on ass holes many Americans cannot afford to buy health care. Many people ask why people can not afford health care, simple they have no jobs thanks to both parties who voted and encouraged free trade and allowed the corporations to take American jobs over seas in order to make more profit, while receiving huge tax breaks at the expense of American jobs.

President Obama has become a flip flopping Washington politician; he has lost most of his support from his base of progressive democrats, the very people who got him elected last November. The young people who came out in droves to vote for the first time, a base that would have carried on the progressive values of the party most likely will not vote again, and probably not get involved, because they have had the wind knocked out of them with the way this president and the leaders of the party has raped the health care issue in this country. President Obama has not stood up for the common citizen, instead has allowed and enabled corporate America to buy off nearly every senator that we have with more campaign money for their elections. President Obama is Washington politics as usual.

I am ashamed to be affiliated with these gutless bastards. Kissing Trader Joe Lieberman's ass makes me want to puke, what has Lieberman done to promote health care for his fellow citizens not a damn thing on the contrary he has done every thing in his power to stop health care. I am sorry that senator Ted Kennedy is not here to make sure that Americans got decent health care.

There are a few who believe that the health care reform bill is a step in the right direction, I guess I am from the show me state, I will have to wait and see what actually comes out of this bill before I can officially support it. Between the republicans and the blue dog democrat's health care reform will be a slow and pain staking ordeal. after all it took us 60 years to get this far and I guess it will take us another 60 years before everyone can have health care.


MERRY CHRISTMAS
