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:

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

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.
