Video: Sen. David Vitter Says Government Health Care Will Be The Only Option.

“That government option in a couple of years would be the only option because unions, companies, etc. would dump their employees in the government option because it would be the cheapest thing to do and would be subsidized by the taxpayer.”

Health Care Bill Will Create Rationing.

“I’m concerned about what you see in other countries like Canada and England which essentially is rationing. Which is folks having to wait forever or actually be denied care because some government bureaucrat decides it doesn’t fit into their plan.”

Health Care Rush Will Repeat Stimulus Mistakes.

“We’re supposed to rush through this in a few weeks? That’s exactly what led to such a debacle with the stimulus. Vote for it now, read it later. We can’t repeat that mistake.”

Length of Full Interview: 3:32

I keep being a broken record here, but this guy should be number one on the list to get rid of in 2010. He is a disgrace on so many levels. For some reason he is still loved on Free Republic. I just hope LA does not feel the same.

Someone other than Vitter needs to be making this argument. It would be one thing if Vitter had never run on the family values argument but he did and then got caught with his pants down.

No matter what the validity of his remarks are they will always be stained with what he did. He needs a Republican opponent in 2010 who actually is electable and who can restore honor to that seat.

And worse still it was not even an honest affair of the heart. He was actually paying a prostitute to engage in acts that his wife wouldn’t do with him.

Bobby Jindal, Rodney Alexander, Charles Boustany, one of these guys needs to run against him and put him out of his misery because he’s a stain on the party
