Judge Napolotano needs to take bar refresher course, since there are clearly outlined "protected classes" of which being an illegal alien is not one of them. If that were the case the restriction against illegal aliens who PAY Social Security payroll taxes yet are ineligible for Social Security payments would have been declared unconstitutional long ago.

Judge Napalotano is a Constitutional Attorney. I believe him. He is probably one of the best there is.
illegal immigrants aren't really a class.

Oh my god.. you can not grasp a concenpt can you.

Illegals CAN NOT recieve medicaid.. PERIOD. they can't cross the border and claim for medicaid. You must FIRST PROVE THAT YOU FALL BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL.. which means you have to have FILED US TAXES. If you are ILLEGAL.. more often times than not you have no documents to prove anything. .. that's first.

Secondlyl.. AGAIN> >>>> READ CAREFULLY PLEASE

YES.. ILLEGALS CAN NOT BE DENIED ACCESSS TO THE PUBLIC OPTION..

BUT THE PUBLIC OPTION , AS OUTLINED IN HR 3200 AND MENTIONED LAST NIGHT BY THE PRESIDENT IS NOT FREE HEALTH CARE.

AND.. that means that ANYONE who can and will PAY for the coverage WILL BE ABLE TO PAY for the coverage...

AND there are measures in the BILL ..as mentioned in a post above linking to the article.. THAT DOES NOT ALLOW FOR CREDITS OR SUBSIDIES TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS in obtaining the public option.. WHICH AGAIN.. ISN'T FREE HEALTH INSURANCE.

Also..if they could already get FREE health insurance as you so seem to think they can..then there would be NO UNINSURED ILLEGALs.. because they would be COVERED BY MEDICAID.. and they are not.

We're talking HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE with health reform.. and the ability to obtaion COMPREHENSIVE care..
Granted. But emergency rooms are not what we are talking about here.

Default Just a Reminder

In case anyone forgot, Obama will be flying China's flag on our White house lawn on September 20th, 2009 to "celebrate" the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Republic of China.
Where is the news media on this? Are they hoping it will go unnoticed? This is a communist flag. Why is he doing this?
And ACORN, he's in it up to his eyeballs. He was their attorney, obama knows how they work. Did anyone see the video of the Acorn workers helping a couple get a house and make it a brothel? Showing them how to lie and cheat on taxes? Our money is funding Acorn. The couple were under cover. You can see the whole thing at www.biggovernment.com.
Why is obama wanting to celebrate communism in our country?

Health care will be just like public schooling for illegal kids. It will be against the law to ask them to prove their citizenship.

Although the law will say they aren't included, there will be no way to check when they walk in with a real or forged govt insurance card.

Oh my god.. what is the matter with you.. LOL.. seriously.

It says in the bill that the abilityto PURCHASE INSURANCE can not be discriminated against based on status..

That means that YES.. an illegal CAN get the public option.

BUT IT IS NOT A FREE OPTION!!!!! THE PUBLIC IS NOT GETTING IT FOR FREE!!!!

THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO PURCHASE THE PUBLIC OPTION AS DOES EVERYONE ELSE.

What part of that do you NOT understand????

NOTHING in HR 3200 is giving ANYTHING away for FREE.. FREE MEDICAL CARE ALREADYEXISTS ...it's called MEDICAID!!!

This bill isn't about medicaid!! It's about HEALTH INSURANCE REFORM and making INSRANCE that is PURCHASED more affordable.
