It is almost laughable if it wasn’t so tragic. A piece of legislation which has been described as a “health care overhaul” was placed on our books without our permission by a collection of people who were sent to our nation’s capitol to do what we as a nation need. Instead, they do whatever they can to shove bills we do not need but what they think we require down our throats.
            Seeing how many people were against this legislation, the best option in some common sense minds’ is to start over. In fact, that’s what many believe was what was going to happen when he announced a bipartisan summit for healthcare.  However, with putting his legislation on the internet before the pow-wow, many realized the event was no more than an attempt for defeating ObamaCare’s opponents.
          So many times I have stated how much of a bad President Obama is and to tell you the truth, it is not his fault. He literally had months of legislative experience and has now been placed in the highest position in the world.  Despite this, we as Americans (and especially the mainstream media) give Obama chance after chance to prove himself a President. Even when ObamaCare was suggested, we believed that if we showed him consistently through phone calls and public announcements he would back down and, as Minority Leader John Boehner stated, start with a “blank sheet of paper”. Healthcare needs an overhaul, but not at the risk of so many entities which will be hit by ObamaCare.
            Yet not only did he continue with this unconstitutional and dangerous legislation, but he even went as far as to use backdoor deals and dictatorial factors such as Executive Orders to get it through the Capitol Hill Doors.  Probably realizing in a way his error, Obama stated in his speech after the vote that the bill came from the bottom up and not the top down. Does he really think we are that naïve as to not know where this dangerous bill came from?  It’s called ObamaCare for a reason, sir.

            The biggest aspect many cannot believe is that we as a nation told him we did not want this bill on our books. Members of the government will not personally be affected by this bill. If anything, many have already profited by it through avenues such as personal phone calls, jobs and rides on Air Force One.  What about the people who gave you the chance to be where you are?

            Bottom line: ObamaCare is not what we need to assist our nation, let alone our healthcare system.  It is legislation that is as backwards as the deals that were done to get it where it is now.  How can you assist our healthcare system by raising taxes? How can you protect freedom when you create a piece of legislation which tells people what healthcare system to use? We do not need new taxes, new IRS agents and finally we do not need to be told what healthcare plan we should be on. 
           Obviously, there are people in the capitol who have forgotten what their jobs are.  They have become as flawed as the bill they just sent to our law books. In November, I see more of an overhaul than they ever thought this so-called “Healthcare Reform Bill” could have ever done.

Democrats have shown themselves to be more aggressive and ruthless than their Republican counterparts. They know this is a war where you take no prisoners. They were not about to let their own off the hook even if it means they lose their seats in the next election. To the Dems it is all about winning. Until conservatives get as focused at winning elections they will remain in the back seat. Before you can repeal you must be in control. Can Republicans become as organized and as disciplined as the Democrats? I hope so but the Democrats are a resillient bunch.
