“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Mike Rogers gets it!

Regular reader Melissa sent this 4min clip in. It's part of the contentious health-care debate going on in Washington. Rep. Rogers pretty much sums what's wrong with the bill as written by democrats and more generally, what's wrong with democrats....



This guy gets it!

Yes this bill he was reading was indeed horrifying. The Senate Finance Committee from what they will leak out sounds much better. "Currently" it leaves out the public option and sets up insurance buying like congressman get to do--buy among various plans so you get free market competition. And "currently" does not tax health care benefits already in place nor kick you off your employer plan---since there is no public plan. It "sounds" more like insurance reform and not socialized medicine (which I vehemently oppose). The bill is supposed to come out today or tomorrow out of committee. We'll see if the magic happens.
