As a conservative first Republican second the constitution is near and dear to me. This video I think is a wonderful expression of what I feel is wrong with the HealthCare Bill. Yes we need to pass something that most Americans agree on, but this bill is not that bill. This is a wish list that will forever change our constitution.

When you hear elected Republican officials not acting Republican you can do one of three things. Get in the race, help someone opposing the RINO, or lay down and drink the RINO koolaid.
As long as grassroots does nothing they will continue to not represent us. This candidate along with others is stepping out and running. If you can help him or others please do so. As the teaparty people will attest, in great numbers conservatives can make a difference.
We as the grassroots cannot let this dragon go. Since the CBO has some half good news, word is many blue dog democrats, and some republicans will vote yes on the national healthcare bill.
Even though for every medical procedure a patient has that the equipment is over $100.00 (many and vast) will be taxed.What it looks like is you will be paying for having insurance, getting less treatment, and be paying taxes on certain procedures you need no matter the reason why. Most women have a PAP smear, it is one that will be taxed because the kit is over $100.00.
Dick Morris had a great article on Snowe and Lincoln. Look HERE.
The Hill details the bill costs and analysis by CBO HERE.
If that is not enough look Rachel Maddow is even saying there is pressure.

As a grassroots person, each and every cycle I think this time it will be different. The real problem is DC thinks the dollars are theirs to spend, the money is there for the taking. Fiscal Responsibility and Government local, State and National all have a problem. Don’t blame just the national either, I have spoken to state and local politicians they tend not to see a bottom line when they are not paying the bill. I liken those that spend, spend and spend as a Trust fund kid with a credit card. There is no one to tell them no but the few who try to stay close to who they were before they were elected.
This video documents what I believe.
Link to a new bill is at the bottom. Found it when I was researching another story.
As I write this midnight Wednesday night (don’t ask Gator wanted me to try Dublin Dr Pepper in a plastic bottle). There is no bill passed yet. I think with good reason this bill will be passed. It has a lot in it I am totally unhappy about.
The biggest thing I think the Baucus bill does is charge a fine for those that don’t carry insurance. It isn’t a little fine either, it can range from $750 to $3800.
There is no clause for insurance companies to sell across state lines, which would have brought in much more competition.
There is a pre-existing condition clause in it. This being said, I have not seen the actual bill. Just as NCLB was supposed to help parents, but for the most part has messed up education this could be the same deal.
There is a excise tax on “golden” insurance plans.
There is an expansion of Medicaid (translation states will be poorer because of it) Medicaid is provided by the states.
There are tax credits for businesses that provide insurance through 2013, after that I am sure we will all roll into public healthcare.
The rush to do a bill, without real debate on the floor, without real reading of the bill by the Senate much less the voter is never a good deal.
Good Laws take time and care, I have become a more vocal advocate of open door negotiations. I want to know exactly what the bill says and I don’t.
Wall Street Journal has a rundown of the bill. Look HERE.
It says no illegals will be covered or abortions, but remember we haven’t seen it and the only ones that actually know what it says aren’t saying enough for us to truly know what it says.
My feeling is it will pass, and we will wait to know what has happened to our healthcare.
Grassroots and Teaparty people are left out again.
Update: I do research for my blogs. Here is what I found while looking for something else. This bill was released Wednesday Morning it may or may not be the right Bill
Look HERE.
This was the date that tens of thousands descended on DC, I watched many clips of it.
Here are two good ones.
Here you can watch the crowd grow.
What the Van Jones resignation should teach us is the mainstream media do not want to do real journalism anymore. I have realized this since my frustration with Rick Perry and TTC. It is easier to cover a “easy sweet story”, than to dig through mountains of clips, paperwork and half truths. The difference with Van Jones is most of the stuff Glenn found was video of Van’s own words.
The reason the teaparties are happening is not because people are against healthcare reform, they have read the bill and Don’t Want it. Pretty simple, you provide the truth, let us decide. It may be the last bill we will ever have access to.
NCLB (no child left behind) was supposed to be a great bill, but ask any Texan parent about TAKS and you will get the scrunched nose effect. TAKS was Texas’s answer to it, and everytime you ask a lawmaker about it. They say TAKS is gone, the way of testing is different not if you speak to a current teacher. Special Education kids are required to pass grade level TAKS, the reason they are in Sp Ed is because they have struggled to keep up. TAKS testing has proved only one thing, our kids need help and TAKS is a stupid test. We knew they needed help already.
My point is simple The healthcare bill was and is a piece of crap bill. Now that many have read it, we know that. Not because the majority of lawmakers told us, because we read it. No one defends the constitution better than a voter. If it had not been out there it may have passed, because many would have told us what The One has been saying about the bill, which in many ways is not true. They drink the koolaid so you don’t have to.
Van Jones mixes the koolaid, calls people names. He blames all the ills of the environment on whites yet he is chosen as the Green Jobs Czar. Had Glenn Beck not done what he did, Jones would still be there on our dime.
Don’t drink any koolaid, read what you can about every bill. Get information from multiple sources. I am just as likely to look up something about Rick Perry on a left blog as I am on a right blog. The reason is simple, Rick has all the right bloggers drinking koolaid. The real stuff that is 100% irrefutable is on the left blogs. Doesn’t mean I am left it means I am looking for the truth, and koolaid drinking doesn’t help any voter. Also I like videos and documents, they are proof positive of what happened. Documents rarely lie, and videos take the talker at what they say out of their mouths. Glenn uses both of them.
Here is Glenn’s detail of who did nothing to report problems with Van.
The day that most will think is just another day, but not for the kids in Public School in America. The President is going to do a live video feed on that day. I have searched for a transcript but there is nothing on what exactly he will say.
Many liberals and others think I am leaping off a bridge here, but think about today’s world where you are raising kids. We had Clinton,Ford, Reagan, Carter, Nixon, GH Bush, GWB and never once was there a Public School Address. Our country is leaving freedom way behind the eightball. It is no longer if The One wants full control, it is how is going about it.
In Russia, in China, in Korea, in Iran, in Cuba this type of audacity would not be news, it would expected that the road to “infilitrate young minds” begins in Kindergarten. Problem is we are a Republic not a communist Country, although if we keep putting up with it Republic will be a memory of our past.
Just so you know here is what they will be doing during Class

Gator is still in PS as we call it. It has been a point of frustration for me that he is in PS but his ability to indepth study other than Science and English which I have worked with him since day one.
What I know first hand is ESL (English as a Second Language) kids rarely miss school, many are illegals. This activity is to indoctrinate illegals kids, minorities and shame white kids with guilt for not adoring The One. They have us over a barrel, my son has a full Pre AP schedule, missing school will be hard.
I have yet to figure out what I will do about this situation. It is not an easy decision for my family, you go to school even when you don’t feel great. Missing school cause you want to doesn’t happen, but this is a test for my son’s brain. And I will not lay down, which is why I totally forever support School Choice. Give me the money and I will buy great curriculum.
Tim Hawkins is a homeschooling dad, who along with his kids and wife make many videos about all sorts of things. I usually watch them from another homeschooling mom. What Tim does do is combine truth with humor, and this video it is a perfect balance.
Tuscan Tea Party
Not a town hall, a Tea Party where like minded people go for support of the idea of Government out of their lives.
I cannot put the video here but I give you a link. It is a must See. Look HERE.
