Disagrees with you
Which has nothing to do with public opinion on government-run "healthcare."
But since you brought it up... this poll will matter more now:
Nov, 2010.

I personally have good health care, and I applaud passage of the House bill and hope Obama will have a bill to sign soon. I'm paying for health care for Iraqis, why not for Americans? My household income is just under 100K, I don't feel so stingy that I can't help out people of lesser means. I have to pay taxes for wars that kill people for no good reason - why not have some of my money go to actually help people?

"Welfare bums"? You are really sheltered. Get acquainted with reality.
Are you a supporter of Major Hasan and others like him? Do you want him kept alive to try and then held for life, when those kids were looking forward to their lives in the Army?

Whoops, off topic but I just wondered what such a generous person as you are thought about this.

They can use strong-arm tactics that I NEVER thought ANY political party could legally, get away with.....not so long ago.

My confidence in the ability to STOP the Dems/Pelosi and Obama from acting like schoolyard PUNKS extorting lunch money from little kids.....is fading.
There really is NO democracy, no constitution, no freedom here.
It was ALL lies from day one, I suppose?
America IS gone.
DEAD!
It sure's Hell isn't THIS place.

Fine.
This is the Highway to Hell........so, might as well enjoy the ride.

That scenario will not play out again. The only way Cao wins is if he switches parties.

It doesnt matter how he votes, especially if he is going to caucus with the GOP Southern good ole boys.
He also won in an extremely low turn out special election.

So long as the citizens have a say Perry's secessionist attitude doesn't stand a chance

You've got alot of nerve implying that someone on the other side of the health care debate supports a cold blooded killer.

This is what is wrong with your Party. People like you have taken over.

It's not only that you don't know anything....it's that you don't know any limits.

You are calling all those things socialism like this bill fosters. You are full of it and you know it.

I served my country in the military without any thought of getting VA assistance. I paid into Social Security for other people for nearly 60 years. I never asked for Medicare but for some reason the law says that at 65 we have to have it and that insurance companies aren't allowed to provide without it from that time on. It was Dems who passed both those horrendous laws, wasn't it?

Oh yea, hand out the free HC and it wont be coming out of my pocket.

Thanks for saving me a ton of money on my HC. Get in line tomorrow right behind the losers cheese lines for your HC.

I have to laugh, the dems running the HC system when they cannot even get the H1N1 vaccine right.
Yeah, you can laugh all the way to jail for defrauding the government. LOL!
