Well?
For DECADES illegal aliens who had NO insurance went to emergency rooms a got free healthcare on OUR dime but the Dems did not want to send them back to their own countries. NOW every American must buy healthcare or face prison. Please don't forget to wear your spurs when you ride me at tax time. I enjoy the pain.

You will go to jail if you do not
take advantage of this opportunity to avoid going to jail because you have failed to accept our most generous offer to avoid going to jail.

We have been given a preview of how we are about to lose our freedom and liberty.

What a great point. Now I question, as these clowns claim that illegals will not be covered under this bill will they also be exempt from any fines or punishment if they continue to use our medical facilities and continue not to pay for them. Would just love to hear the answer to that question.

Ever get the feeling lately that it would be better to be an Illegal in their new world of hopenchange?

Send Uninsured to Prison
This is all the healthcare reform we need. Of the supposed 30 million people without health insurance now, 10 million are eligible for insurance through work or medicaid or medicare and have not applied for it. Maybe with the threat of prison they would activate the health insurance they qualify for.

15 million are illegal. They will still get free health care. That only leaves approximately 5 million that actually can't afford or get health insurance. Surely, we can find someway to help these people without ruining the best health care system in the world.

Uh oh
Looks like Nazi needs some Botox her AGE is showing as well as her dark evil inner self.
I was just thinking, maybe having had so much
Botox shot in her, she's morphed into one rather large, stupid bacterial/viral botox clone.

I keep hammering my idiot soon to be GONE, GONE
GONE (2010) from my district about his taking the same
'medicine' as he's foisting on the rest of us..
the crickets are a chirping since he cut and ran on that question at his Town Hall meeting in August. They shouldn't get a pass on that question.

Alabama Roadrunner writes: Thursday, November, 12, 2009 2:23 PM
Simple solution
Quit rigging the market with free care at emergency rooms. If people have to start paying for their care, it is a greater incentive to get the insurance they have the 'opportunity' for than threats of fines or prison.

Charles Wesley - many of the people that want to send folks to JAIL for not buying health insurance want to let rapists and killers go free. Go figure.

no coverage = jailtime?
can we call it socialism yet?

Hard time for no insurance, Yeah you can be a child molester in Vermont and get probation but if you don't have your health care coverage your going to the big house, and Oklahoma too.

Haven't the out of shape people had a
free ride in this country for far to long?

Refusing to exercise and eating 5000 calories a day has turned this nation into a bunch of fatasses and everyone has to pay for their choices. What we need in this country is a government that can tell people to quit pigging out and hit the gym enforced by law. That would be just another federal program to promote the general welfare.


Right????

Everyone has to be responsible to society for their health or they are a drag on limited resources. No one would lose any real freedom if our messiah put us all on a diet and a serious work out routine.

Right?????

Where did all you darned airdales come from?

I never had the misfortune to have been ship's company on a bird farm, but I did ride most (all?) of 'em on the East Coast on admiral's staffs -- and shotgunned most every one on the West Coast.

Everybody to his/her own kick, but bird farms wasn't my bag. I hung with tin cans and cruisers until I advanced myself off of 'em, after which they dragged me kicking and screaming down the brow.

I was with a couple of air dale commands in my early Navy days. TACRON 21 and FLETACSUPPRON ONE, back when it flew both cargo and VIP aircraft. We hauled the CNO/CMC/senators/congresscreeps all over the world. I think the AF does that now, although the Navy still has some nice VIP air planes. -- C-12 and the Lear jets. (Hey, if you gotta fly, that is the way to go!)

She has to be one of the most hated women in the USA (that she is trying hard to destroy).
Corndog writes: Thursday, November, 12, 2009 4:39 PM
Hey Salty Seadog

Black shoe or Brown shoe so long as you're a conservative.

I never envied you guys on the small boys especially in heavy seas. There we'd be rock steady while you poor souls looked like you were riding a rollar coaster.

God bless ya. I was happy to have you in company. I never quite trusted the phalanx.

So much botox over the years have fried
her brain and she didn't answer the question.

Pelosi's botox
And Prejean's fake boobs. It seems kind of ridiculous to think that asshats like Joseph even bother to 'go there'. Seriously, do you think that you can denigrate a smart, savvy woman like Pelosi with clownish comments about Botox? Get a grip, doughie pantload - especially when you're being represented by guys like orange-tint Bohner. Laughable.
