Ping!
This is a nice post discussing the pros and cons of Mitt’s health care plan. Hopefully we can have a fair and rational discussion.
“Hopefully we can have a fair and rational discussion.”
One would hope, but some seem opposed to that.
Gov. Romney: Healthcare Is A Republican Issuehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhJo_DlN1jk
Yep, there's a first time for everything.
----> DeMint: Romney's Health Plan Expands Freedom, Not Socialism
Columbia, SC - Today, U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina) made the following statement:
"Governor Romney's plan will dramatically expand access to affordable, private health insurance. By providing for full deductibility of all medical expenses, this plan will help millions of Americans who don't receive coverage through their employer to have a real choice in the individual market. It will also help equalize the tax treatment between employer-based and individual health insurance, allowing more Americans to afford a plan they can own and keep.
"This plan rejects socialized medicine that leads to fewer choices, lower quality, and higher taxes. Governor Romney has outlined a sensible plan that will harness the power of free markets to provide Americans with personal control of the highest quality care at the best possible price."
Romney is brilliant. He knows we cannot allow the dems to own this issue. Yes, the current system needs reform, but he understands that we need to come up with innovative ideas and solve the problems on our terms, not theirs.
Okay fair and rational. Point out to me where it's the business of the national government to be forwarding health care 'plans', medical programs, retirement plans, or 95% of anything they do. Fair is giving Romney and every other big government advocate the time and ability to withdraw their 'solutions' and be quiet.
Cut taxes, return the money to the citizens of the respective states, and get out of our lives. Fair enough? If I choose to purchase medical insurance that's my business. If I choose not to that's my business as well and I accept the repercussions that may bring with it.
If the state mandates your payment, it is a tax and a socialization, whether the mandate requires the payment to a public or private entity.
You might choose to believe otherwise, but please understand that conservatives see through Willard’s spin.
Willardcare and Hillarycare are not materially distinguishable.
Unfortunately, it might not be possible.
These Romney haters are mindlessly obsessed with slinging mud and posting juvenile photos.
Their hatred toward this conservative candidate borders on obsession.
Like I said in another post, I virulently disagree with several current Republican candidates on many issues.
Yet I am not out there denigrating and lobbing mindless slander at them.
It is early in the election process, and we at least should simply be tossing around the ideas these candidates put forth, instead of accusing them of "causing diahreah and death" as one Romney hater already wrote.
One more thing: I saw Ann Colter on the OReilly show tonight (Michelle Malkin substituted) and Colter indicated that Romney was probably her top choice, her favorite candidate, among the current crop of GOP hopefuls.
Now I supposed these Romney haters will accuse Ann Colter of not being "conservative enough".
