I believe the point he was making revolved around taxation. His state has 98% medical coverage. So he was pointing out why when they are paying their own medical coverage at state level they would be taxed for federal coverage they would not receive.
It was the type of Government that our forefathers fled from to eventually form the United States of America.
Right on James!! Man I am sick and tired of rules set for us by them while they don't live by those rules. Like R.C. Soles longtime anti-gun senator who in august shot a home intruder. They are all hypocrites.
Scott Brown is a start but we must remember he too is a politician. Not that they are all bad but we the people cannot ever risk becoming complacent again. That is the problem until things went totally south most of us were complacent and rolling with the tides. We are now close to losing this Nation as we know her and in truth I believe that anybody in Washington supporting the presidents agenda should be labeled as unpatriotic and not allowed to serve in Washington. They are not upholding the constitution as they swore too in an oath and I look at most of them as committing acts of treason. We The People from now on need to make sure those in Washington do OUR bidding and not the bidding of special interests or self serving agendas. Above all we must demand that our constitution be upheld.
Is this sort of post not completely the opposite direction this project should be going? On 912 we had all found a way to feel for and care for our fellow Americans no matter their beliefs. We all shared a time of tragedy and I believe Glenn is trying to reclaim that glimpse of just how great the American populous is and how they came together in this countries time of need. Lets stick with the mission and cast aside the pettiness.
You are welcome to your opinion...Though I would have to say that I do not share your opinion.
Couldn't it be argued that global warming is what ended the ice age? I agree that the current state of the planet may just be the natural evolution of our big orb.
This sort of thing bothers me. You see we know the core values and the part religion played in the founding of this country. Now we cannot have religion in our courts in our schools in some public places. At what point do I have a reasonable expectation to be "FREE" of Anti-Religion in a public space/time. Does anybody see my point? Religion is being removed from so many places therefore making those places Anti-Religious places. Because I am religious does that mean I have less rights? It sure seems like religion is under fire. I am sure glad nobody can take away my faith. I am sure if it were possible there would be some group out there trying to take that away as well.
Very true I did not vote for Obama but I am an American. He won, no matter how he won. That makes him my President. However as Patriotic as that is it also does not mean I have to believe anything he says nor do I have to agree with the direction he is taking this country. I believe that he is in far over his head and I believe the people that gave him this rise to power are already seeing that he is not a strong leader and as stated throughout the campaign he lacks experience on all levels. How can he lead with any form of strength if he cannot leave his teleprompter or his blackberry behind. The blackberry could be a security risk and still he could not shake a simple addiction to that device. That tells me his mind is not where it needs to be.
There have always been wolves per say that roam the boundaries of our reach. Certain administrations have kept them at bay while others seem to have lowered our defenses. I believe that the Obama administration appears weak and looks to the world like they are concerned with the struggle to be politically correct. The worry over terms like enemy combatant and over terrorists rights seems to send a message that the current administration does not have the stomach for a fight. There are a few governments that would enjoy an opportunity to pounce on us but in the long run I believe that one thing above all is quite obvious. Americans simply do not roll over and give in without a fight. Push comes to shove we have some pretty good push ourselves.
