It is coming down to the wire. The Demoncrates are determine to pass No' Bama Care (universal/national health care) before the break. This is a mistake, BIG MISTAKE!!!
We do need reform but not like this. Once this passes it will be almost impossible to undo. There are many ways to correct the system properly, and I will list some of them tomorrow. In the mean time take a look at this.
Forty (D) members of congress wrote a letter to House Speaker Pelosi and House Majority Leader Hoyer citing three main points that they wanted addressed. 1) More time, don't rush it, 2) better protection for small businesses (since they employ most of America), 3) Protect rural health care providers.
Pelosi's response was, I promised No' Bama that he would have legislation before the break and that is still my goal.
While all this is happening; a very courageous Congressman from Louisiana, Rep. John Fleming has proposed a bill. This is a very nice bill. It's called HR615, HR615 would require all members of congress (representatives and senators) to enroll and use the soon to be passed No' Bama Care. That is correct!!!! If they think it is so good and it's going to help us out so much then they should not have a problem using it themselves, right??? Hell no, Not going to happen. At my last check this is a list of members that have signed on to the bill and have said they would participate when it passes. Please be aware that all of these signatures are Republicans!!!!

This is Rep. Fleming's website:

You can find the entire bill and also a letter to send to your Rep.'s and Senators and ask them if they are willing to use the SUPER DUPER NO' BAMA CARE. My guess is "not so much".
People if it is good enough for us it should be good enough for them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
