in what way will it reduce the deficit? by effectively rendering hlthcr 2 seniors useless thus expediting their deaths? by adding 12 2 15 million illegals? by providing substandard hlthcr? by attrition thru denying hlthcr 2 terminal patients deemed expendable? by cutting benefits of mcare 4 those who funded it in the 1st place - cuts from a congress who has systematically plundered & embezzled the fund 4 pet projects over many yrs, most of which were controlled by a dem majority? &, by the way, dems have blocked the public from reading the present bill on the table 2 prevent further outcry. neither you nor, most of them (because they wont read it), will know what's in this bill until after it's passed. you may not need it now, but do you really want 2 trust your life 2 a congress, most of whom will just rubberstamp the bill without reading it? 56% of americans dont want this hlthcr bill. that crosses all party, political, racial, cultural, economic lines. why is this? because most of us wldnt trust a rat's patoot one of them, dem or

Turn off Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and most importantly, the crazy sauce. I have little idea how you found my Journal, but, quite frankly sir, you're everything that's wrong with politics today.

Then stop parroting talking points like a trained monkey. Seriously, you could be the Fox News marquee.
