The very nature of this proposed entitlement lends the bill to "vote getting politics", rather than for the good of the nation. So rather than leave this up to a congress that won't even move to stop illegal aliens from not only entering the country without using legal avenues, they want to feed, educate, give them SS and medical help on the taxpayer tit. Therefore, I think this Medicare prescription-drug bill should be put to a vote by We The People in the coming election. It is truly frightening to think of the pork Senators, like Ted Kennedy, Byrd, Leahy will tack onto it once in the Senate.
All Freepers, please write, call or fax DeLay today about your concerns over this bill it is a decision that belongs to the people, not government.

Actually its truly frightening to watch what the *REPUBLICAN* majority in the house and senate are *ALREADY* doing.
Why do people here focus on what the the democrats *might* do when the republicans are *already* doing it.
Lets not forget which party has caused *discretionary* spending to increase over 27% in two years and caused the national debt to double in just a few years...
