"Mitt Romney is the only GOP candidate who can debate the democrats on health care. All the other GOP candidates will be laughed off the planet if they try. Romney is the only one who actually DID something, not just blab blab blab. Romney has a good heart. He tried. It was not perfect but he tried."

Whoopee! I'm so thrilled. Who wants to debate away, negotiate away and compromise away our economic freedom? No thanks. The constitution does not empower Romney or Hillary, Teddie, Chuckie, et al, to socialize health care or mandate business or individuals to purchase health insurance. I thought you once claimed to be a conservative. Conservatives just say no to this socialist malarkey. Once upon a time most Republicans did.

See tagline.

Hi, boss. The GOP will go down in flames if they don’t do something about health care.

Actually my husband became extremely ill about 8 yrs ago with a huge cancerous tumor (football size) on the tailbone area and growing into the abdomen. Well, it was very painful and he could not work, lost everything. Doctors in Fresno told him he would die. Because he could not work, he could not pay for health care. He was told about Dr. Phil Weinstein at UCSF in San Francisco and thank God Almighty a 10-hr operation with 8 doctors and Scott came through. Medi Cal paid for it or else my hubby would have died. Scott was supposed to have radiation treatments but we couldn’t afford it (and didn’t want to fight Medi Cal nightmare again) so five years later the tumor came back. This time, though, we had married and I was working and had health care and this time after another surgery, Scott had conventional radiation treatments and cyberknife. I thank God every day for my husband being alive and well and I pray every day that the cancer will not come back . . . but it’s always in the back of my mind and we are both 60 yrs old now and worry about our health. If I can no longer work, there goes the health insurance.

SO DON’T TALK TO ME ABOUT HEALTH CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My husband would not be alive today if Medi Care hadn’t paid for the first surgery. Sometimes, Jim, I think your heart has shriveled up and died.

Mitt Romney is a good man and a good family man and yes I appreciate what he is trying to do with health care. If that makes me a liberal in your eyes, then . . . whatever!!

Socialized health care is unconstitutional.

Please read the following regarding Romney’s liberal record on abortion, the homosexual agenda, gun control, etc:

http://www.massresistance.org/docs/marriage/romney/record/

I believe your positions are (or were) exactly opposite to Romney’s record on all of the above.

So, if Romney gets the Human Life Amendment passed, does his socialized medicine plan still cover abortions for $50? Mitt Romney is a walking contradiction...say anything to anyone to get elected. Makes me sick.

His chickens are coming home to roost, though, as this information about him comes out.

“if the Human Life Amenmend gets pass there will be NO MORE ABORTIONS SILLY!”

Since Mitt supports both the HLA and $50 abortions, can you tell me which one he prefers? Or does that depend on who his audience is?

He signed the Romney care bill, with Ted Kennedy present, and bragged about it. It mandated not only the $50 abortions but that every citizen of Massachusetts be required to belong to his plan and thus required to subsidize abortion on demand.

This cost him the NRLC endorsement. When it gets out widely in Iowa, he is going to be toast.

Oh. I see. Mitt wants to socialize the rest of the health care industry, and throw in free abortions for good measure... No thanks!!

Brian Camenker President of MassResistance

Camenker Admits He Used To Be “A Social Liberal.” “For much of my life I thought of myself as a social liberal. I voted for John Anderson for president and Michael Dukakis for governor.” (Brian Camenker, “How A Good Jewish Boy Joined The ‘Religious Right’,” The Jewish Advocate, 12/25/96)

Camenker Has A Record Of Attacking Prominent Republicans:

In 2001, Camenker Attempted To Derail President Bush’s Nomination Of Massachusetts Governor Paul Cellucci To Be Ambassador To Canada. “Brian Camenker, president of the Waltham-based Parents’ Rights Coalition, privately met in Washington Thursday with about a dozen Republican staff members on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which would evaluate [Gov. Paul] Cellucci’s nomination. Camenker said they were ‘shocked’ to hear about homosexual teachings in Massachusetts but nervous about how President Bush would receive criticism about Cellucci, who is not only his choice for ambassador but a longtime family friend.” (Tina Cassidy, “Cellucci Foe Takes Case To US Senate,” The Boston Globe, 3/3/01)

- The Boston Herald Praised The Cellucci Nomination And Called On Camenker To Stop His Attacks. “And surely between now and Cellucci’s confirmation hearings someone will tell the increasingly shrill Brian Camenker of the Parents Rights Coalition to simply go to his room. ? But you can’t reason with zealots and Camenker is a zealot. Cellucci is a good choice for the post.” (Editorial, “Bush Chooses Well For Ottawa Embassy,” Boston Herald, 2/14/01)

I don't have a problem with programs for those who need them. What I have a problem with is being forced into a government program I don't need or want.
