John Edwards, never a warm and cozy sight to doctors and other medical professionals and a presidential candidate for 2008, is pushing for a taxpayer-funded Universal Healthcare plan, further nudging the United States closer and closer to pure socialism.
When asked if these kinds of taxpayer funded “investments” are a priority over balancing the clearly lopsided federal budget, he responded “If I were choosing now between which is more important, I think the investments are more important,” during an ABC television interview recently. Investments in socialism are clearly more important to Edwards. The priority of spending money supersedes saving money with every Democrat or Republican running for president in 2008.
Although balancing the budget is apparently important to the southern politician, he admitted that a federal government run Universal Healthcare plan may prevent the newly elected Democratic Congress from fixing the “fiscal ditch” that we find ourselves in.

edwards don't matter
That ambulance chaser must not realize that he'd be cutting his own throat. Can't sue the gub'mint when the federal medical system brings on fatalities.
This message from John Edwards kind of goes against the "pay-go" legislation that is the foundation of the Pelosi 100 hour agenda, doesn't it???
Hehehehehe...this is SO fun!
Also would hurt the economy. The only thing the democrats are good at.
Socialism on the move: Edwards pushes Universal Healthcare
There's a lot of that going around, California is likely to get a big dose soon as well.
When you have no coherent philosophy based on things that work in the real world, this is the mess you are going to get yourselves in.
Free aspirin for everyone!!!
I tell you what...when I don't have to listen to any of them...and can just read what is going on...
I am having a great time.
I enjoyed watching GOP rep after GOP rep get up on the House floor today and spell out that broken promises by the Dems....
John Edwards has been talked about as being the "ONE" to take advantage of the strikes against Hillary and Obama.
ROFLMAO!!!
No need to. He's got $5 million parked in his account already from NC OB docs and their insurance companies.
"Changes they want to make have no impact on their financial future.."
oh but they do, when they own controlling interest in what ever product they get the govt to deem as needed
remember LadyBird Johnsons fathers shipping company?
Great article. I never made the connection quite so clearly between 'universal health care' coming so dangerously close to indentured servitude for medical workers.
Heaven help us if Hillary manages to get elected with Dem majorities in the House and Senate. I need to get my herb garden planted!
Puke.
Edwards doesn't like doctors much, does he? (Neither do I, but for different reasons)
Hes only doing it to give Hildabeast a gage and get the issue in front of America so PIAPS wont ruin her chance by bringing up what a miserable failure she and social health were.
Thanks for reading it.
