Questions on Health Care Bill

Posted by Billy on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 5:38:44 PM
I have some questions for you the American voter and tax payer.
A. Would you vote for something you had not read or  did not have much information on?
B. Would you vote to limit your right to ever change something which the voters in your state passed?
C. Would you vote for something that made the American people buy some service or they would be punished if they didn't?
D. Would you vote to create something which gives  Uncle Sam more power and creates another government program.
I think most of us would answer no to the above questions. However that is what the majority of our US Senators are about to do. They are going to vote for a bill which most of them have not read. We need to make some changes in the best health care system in the world not get rid of the health care system we have. Also if this program is so great why did back room deals have to be made so it would pass. If this does pass as the chances are good it will those in the GOP should run on promises to remove it from the American laws. If they do  the Democrats can kiss any power they have  good-by.

Nelson defends health care role

Posted by Billy on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 5:17:32 PM

Sen. Ben Nelson today defended the various deals he secured in exchange for his support of the Senate health care bill.

The Nebraska Democrat has been taking heat from fellow senators, pundits and his constituents for those deals, particularly an arrangement that has the federal government covering all of the cost to Nebraska of the bill's Medicaid expansion.

Nelson called the criticism a "tempest in a teapot."

(Sen. Nelson showed the people of Nebraska and America that he can be bought. Shame on him. The actions that Nelson took was not the will of the majority of  Nebraska voters. Shame on him. If the election was held today he would pay for his  sell out vote. Read more on this issue Nelson defends health care role.)

Christmas Snow Storm so Lets Cancel the Christmas Holiday

Posted by Billy on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 4:48:48 PM

The forecast is saying a storm is coming Christmas Eve and Christmas Day here in the middle of America. Churches including mine have already called off Christmas Eve services. While we have prepared in-case our plans of spending time with our family have to be changed a question I am thinking should Christmas be canceled? Would God want us to cancel it. My answer is no while I know the Lord understands why we might need to change our plans Christmas will never be called off. After all it is the birth of the Savior of the world who was born to save us from our sins. So even if we get a snow storm  if you know Jesus don't let it cause you to not worship your Savior. Take time to listen to some Christmas music, sing some Christmas hymns like Silent Night.  Read the true Christmas story from the book of Matthew or Luke in the Bible. Watch or listen to a Christmas sermon. Read a Christmas book. Right now I am reading The Purpose of Christmas by Rick Warren. Then I plan to read Why a Manger? by Bodie and Brock Thoene .So no matter what the weather is like do take time on December 24, and December 25th and everyday to worship and seek out the Savior Jesus.

Wash Times: Nelson Sold His Soul On Abortion Amendment

Posted by Billy on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 4:19:29 PM

So much for Sen. Ben Nelson's "line in the sand" against government funding for abortion.

"I don't ordinarily draw a line in the sand, but I have drawn a line in the sand," the Nebraska Democrat said on Dec. 4, promising he wouldn't vote for government health care if it paid for abortion. Mr. Nelson's principles barely lasted two weeks. By Saturday, he announced that he would provide the 60th vote needed to pass government care. The man's word is meaningless.

(The above is part of an  editorial that was in the Washington  Times. Based on what I have read and heard it looks like the Times is making a correct point. Ben Nelson was one of the few Democrats who was pro life and standing up for the unborn. If the deal he made is going to keep our tax money from paying for abortion why has no pro life leader or group defended Nelson. Not one of them has said this was a good deal and will keep babies from being murdered.  I think the director of Nebraska Right to Life spoke for many of us who are pro life in  the state of Nebraska and around the nation." There is no pro-life Nebraskan more devastated by Sen. Nelson's actions than myself. I have defended his record to Nebraskans and believed that he would stand on pro-life principles as he has on numerous occasions in the past. ... Sen. Nelson obliterated the hope of pro-life Americans who saw him as the last man standing between expansion of government funding of abortion and the Hyde Amendment.")

Thanks to Health Care Congressman Leaving His Party and Putting What Is Best For America First

Posted by Billy on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 3:59:09 PM
"I believe our nation is at a crossroads and I can no longer align myself with a party that continues to pursue legislation that is bad for our country, hurts our economy, and drives us further and further into debt."

(Alabama Congressman Parker Griffith, speaking about his decision to leave the Democrat Party and become a Republican.Read more on this issue below.)

Griffith also slammed the health care overhaul making its way through Congress. He was one of 39 House Democrats to vote against a version of the bill that narrowly passed.

"I want to make it perfectly clear that this bill is bad for our doctors," he said. "It's bad for our patients. It's bad for the young men and women who are considering going into the health care field."

He said after the press conference that his defection had nothing to do with concerns about whether he could win re-election as a Democrat. He also said he had not talked to any fellow Democrats about switching parties along with him.

"If they do, I hope it's on conviction and not politics," he said.

(We need more leaders like  Alabama Congressman Parker Griffith who is putting what is best for America ahead of  party and politics.)
