I don't think California Prop 187 applies either

Medical Care for illegals goes back to Reagan. I agree that if the Federal Government should pay for that if they are going to mandate it. Perhaps the republicans could propose it, instead of whining.

Of course, being friendly with the industry and the other lackeys, Fido will do what he believes they want, when they want.

As Sec 206 of the HR Bill clearly states undocumented workers are not, and never were to be covered.

Believe me, I want them to be, so this is not a plus in my book.

But to say otherwise is a lie, and that's just what Fox and Fido want to circulate.
To bad there has been other sources used guess they all lie

It also doesnt state or didnt till now state that you had to prove you are a citizen so whats the point of having the part about undocumented anything in there if you dont have to prove you are

Common sense people use it

Default Rep. Joe Wilson tied to racist southern heritage group

Quote:
... Since Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina bellowed at President Barack Obama, “You lie!†during the president’s nationally televised speech on health care, the fourth-term backbencher has emerged as a hero for the conservative grassroots. One of the most enthusiastic endorsements of Wilson’s histrionics came from the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV), a group that Wilson has belonged to according to his own biographical materials.

figures and let's not mince words but most of these people who oppose Obama is mainly due to racism even though they can scream all they want that it isn't. There is an underlying tone to all of these tea baggers, birthers, and the absolute opposition by the GOP to anything Obama proposes. It's becoming quite apparent what is going on here with the nutcase rightwingers and it isn't just opposing ideology either.
