Bush daughter 'glad' Obama health care passed
CNN ^ | 6/14/10 | Alexander Mooney

One of the daughters of former President George W. Bush isn't following the Republican Party line when it comes to the issue of the health care legislation that cleared Congress last spring without any GOP support.

In an interview on Fox News Sunday, Barbara Bush said she's "glad" Democrats passed the massive spending measure and President Barack Obama signed it into law.

"Why do, basically, people with money have good health care and why do people who live on lower salaries not have good health care?" the 28-year old said.

"Health should be a right for everyone." Asked specifically what she though about the president's health care initiative, Bush replied with a smile, "That is a good question - obviously the health care reform bill was highly debated by a lot of people and I guess I'm glad the bill was passed."

“you gotta be rich to think like that!”

Here's the choice:
Ration by means (if you have money, you get the best care).
Rationing by Government Bureaucrat

OK, but I wish we could get just one of the offspring of our leftist presidents to come out as a conservative.

ObamaCare is just the natural follow up to BushCare.

I got no problems with her. I think what she’s working on has lots of merit. She’ll have to learn for herself about health care.

She’s basically parroting her mother who has recently revealed herself as a liberal. Not that George was ever a conservative. We’ve essentially had 20 years of leadership in the Whitehouse with liberals of one stripe or another in charge. Now we have a full blown Socialist. No wonder the press can so easily vilify anyone who dares to mention the Constitution.

Plus, she’s 28-years old and has never had to worry about money a day in her life. I can’t afford to be a liberal.

Back to school for that one. She needs to learn what a right is and most importantly ... is not.

Does she think that the health care that she will have under Obamacare will be the same health care that the poor have?

She clearly hasn’t thought her answer through.

Why do these people lie and present themselves as something they are not?

How about she doesn’t care. It’s all about her.

More classiness from the progeny of Classy Laura and Jorge Boosh.

Looks like she is walking in the steps of the Reagan children. Very disappointing.

No its not. Its the logical extension of her parents’ bs.

GWB was a catastrophe for the GOP.
