HillaryCare: Part Deux

Here are a few details on Hillary's new universal health care plan. My first problem is with "requiring" people to be insured. What will happen to those who don't want insurance? One thing that most Americans have in common is that they don't want to be forced to do anything.

I think that it is blatantly obvious that our country cannot afford universal health care and that her proposed budget for it cannot work. I would rather hear her detailed plan on saving Social Security, before she adds to the benefits of being American. I am very sympathetic to those who are uninsured, especially those who really need coverage. I have been without health care with Type 1 diabetes, it is not easy. Sacrifices and changes must be made, but I would not ask for everyone else to pay for my problems. There are entirely too many people who do not want to pay for the rest of the country's health care. If Hillary is elected, this plan will implode. So keep on researching, maybe in 15 more years she will have the right answer.

Hillary's Planned Parenthood Pitch...

Hillary Clinton spoke to a group of Planned Parenthood supporters on Tuesday. It doesn't seem that this is a crowd that needs Hillary's courting, but since Barack Obama also spoke to the group, she had to make her appearance. These sort of stops seem very routine at this point, her arrogance seems to make her believe that she has already won, and that we should just all sit back and take it.

In this talk, she glossed over her plans to improve women's health care, sparing the crowd her plans for complete universal health care. She also attacked Republicans saying that they "are not just opposing abortion, they're opposing contraceptives and women's rights." This just sounds like another hateful speech trying to sway people by pulling their emotional rip-cords. Do the Republicans really oppose women's rights? I don't think so. Perhaps it is the idea of federally funded abortions that Republicans oppose. After all, why should I have to pay for someone less responsible than myself to get an abortion which I view to be immoral?

After Clinton and Obama both slammed the Supreme Court for their ruling on late term abortion, Hillary again pushed her "all-knowing" attitude on the crowd. She said, "I would appoint well-qualified judges who really respect the Constitution." We really should all believe this too since Hillary herself has shown such a high regard for our Constitution.

So have no fear, Hillary is here.

Mother's Day Address

"Nothing keeps mothers up at night more than worrying whether their children will have the health care they need if they get sick...we have a moral obligation to our children to give them a healthy start in life." --Hillary Clinton http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=1612

She is really reaching with this one! She is trying to sound like a caring mother instead of the heartless cyborg she is. Being the only female running for president, she really shouldn't have to go to such lengths to convince women to vote for her. We already know she is nothing more than an opportunistic power-monger, you would have to be extremely naive to fall into her poor acting.

Should Bill advise Hill?


Former President Clinton has not missed an opportunity to campaign for his wife at every chance he gets. Last Saturday in San Francisco Clinton talked about how our country needs a new, improved and more expansive health care system.

I wonder what programs he would encourage Hillary to cut from her hypothetical, more "cost-effective" government in order to support his larger, less "immoral" health care system.

She Wants to Improve Our Military


Evidently Clinton is trying to improve medical treatment and support for our military. She probably just wants to add more staff to filter through the injured and sick. The last thing any military hospital needs is a thicker bureaucratic structure weighing it down.

Big Sister's Future

We can all take pleasure in the democratic primary attacks for now, laughing at the "Big Sister" video; but if we do nothing we will find ourselves running from a Clintonized robo-cop, trying to take our children's lunch money to give to illegal immigrants for college tuition and government healthcare. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6h3G-IMZxjo
