Which side are you on?

The time is now for an American solution that will secure our families' health and a healthy economy.

The first order of business for the new President and Congress in 2009 should be to pass health care legislation that guarantees quality, affordable health care for all.

We are asking everyone to tell us which side you are on:

- I’m for a guarantee of quality affordable health care for all.

- I’m for leaving us on our own to buy private health insurance.

Which Side Are You On?


TOPICS: Government; Miscellaneous; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: care; government; health; healthcare; private
I got his in an email from Jeremy Funk, a liberal lackey who is pushing all sorts of Socialist tripe. If you go to the weblink posted above, you get a chance to vote on which type of health care you want to see: Private or Government run. Obviously, I chose Private. I even gave them a good story as to why I want to keep health care private. Apologies if this has already been posted.

Sorry, but I’m not giving them my e-mail address so I can be inundated with their liberal spam.

“I’m for a guarantee of quality affordable health care for all. What does this mean?”

It means you’re a complete idiot who does whatever the leftist cabal tells you to do, and doesn’t complain—except if the GOP is in control.

AT LINK LOL

Which side are you on?

Are you with us for a guarantee of quality affordable health care for all? We need coverage that meets our families’ health care needs and is affordable, based on a sliding scale. We need government to be an advocate for us and set and enforce the rules so insurance companies put our health care before their profits. We need to be able to keep the health care that we have and have the choice of a public plan so we’re not left at the mercy of the same private insurance companies that have gotten us into this mess. We need quality, affordable care we all can count on.

-OR-

Are you for leaving us on our own to buy private health insurance?Leaving us to fend for ourselves in the complicated private insurance market? Do you want insurance companies to be able to sell bare-bones plans with high deductibles? Do you want to start paying income taxes when your employer pays for health coverage? You don’t want any regulations on private insurance so they can keep denying coverage for pre-existing conditions and raising rates on the sick. And you don’t want any limits on health insurance company premiums or profits or on how much drug companies can charge for prescriptions.

Yeah, no agenda there.

These idiots don’t address the inherent problems of supply and demand.

One thing that the “universal health care” issue exposes:
Libs think that they are smarter than anyone else who has ever lived.

I point out the failures of the other systems in the world and ask if the people who are implementing those are stupid - or are the libs in America just that much smarter that their system will work where others have failed?

Of course, there are those that do think that Obama can make it work, even when it has failed every other time.

maybe your definition of “works” is different than theirs. They are out for social justice where the successful pay for a welfare system that treats those first, rations, who it selects, like affirmative action. So your successful uncle small businessman pays through the nose but waits a year for an operation but some poor child whose parents are on welfare who never payed a dime gets there treatment right away. Social justice, a pay system is unfair because health care and education services are new rights (making us slaves) . Capitialism is not jsut, government rationing is.

Even your description shows how “wise in their own eyes” that libs are.

For some reason, they think they are wise enough to implement social (ie, cosmic) justice on the entire world.

You know, if the government would stop telling insurance companies exactly what to cover and how much then the insurance companies could properly assess the risk and give the price accordingly and wouldn't have to deny health insurance to people with pre-existing conditions.

This leftest web site wants complete demographic info in order to vote in their silly poll. I doubt it. And am surprised they don’t ask for your SSN :)

I find it funny (and disturbing) that there are so many people in this country that think that socialized medicine would be wonderful because their plantation masters at the DNC say that it will be free.

Little do they know that they’ll be paying more for the government issued healthcare than if they paid out of pocket in the form of higher taxes.

The problem is that these predator producing welfare brood mares, career college students, and other social slackers who line up at the government trough would rather have their 1000 channel cable or satellite service for their 50+” plasma screen TV’s, and their cell phones, and the $5000 24” rims with the $8000 stereo system in a $900 car with the $6000 paint job instead of ponying up the $150 to $300 a month for health insurance.

Wanna know who is behind this leftist site???

Read this note from an email from Planned Parenthood:

A lot has changed since Planned Parenthood was founded nearly 100 years ago. The past century has seen the development of the pill, spermicidal condoms, and now ... the possibility of “remote-control birth control” for men. This new research, recently announced by a scientist in Australia, shows us just how far the tools of prevention and family planning have come.

Today, it’s not a question of tools; it’s a question of national will. All the innovations in the world won’t do any good if our leaders don’t make access to affordable family planning a priority.

That’s why Planned Parenthood has joined Health Care for America Now — a grassroots coalition to demand quality, affordable care, including reproductive health care, for the 47 million uninsured Americans. I hope you’ll join, too.

Sincerely,

Cecile Richards, President
Planned Parenthood Federation of America

From the Wall St. Journal:

A coalition of liberal organizations will announce plans next week to spend $40 million this election cycle to promote health-care reform and candidates backing the group’s proposals. The interest group, Heath Care for America Now, is the latest to unveil an issue-based campaign to influence the November election, and its budget makes it one of the largest.
