		<description>Donna, 

Congratulations on the birth of this Rose Mary&#039;s baby that Harry Reid pushed through the Senate with every earmark known to man.  Be proud of what the people you put in to office have accomplished.  

We fought every step of the way to stop it, but we failed miserably.  It is really just all about winning, isn&#039;t it?</description>

		<description>Donna,

&quot;And to my Republican and conservative readers: Now that you know this, doesn’t it put you in the untenable position of having to support the bill?&quot;

No. Now that the camel&#039;s nose is under the tent, you folks will eventually put the whole middle class on medical welfare. No socialist program has ever gone backwards in US history. You people have won a major victory, though you don&#039;t seem to realize it. We do.

&quot; The proponents of single payer in CA and other states have figured out how to pay for it and it will not require any more federal bacon, and will probably require less, since the profit margins of insurance cos. will no longer be a factor.&quot;

You totally amaze me. You actually believe that the increased costs of providing universal health care can be made up by wiping out the profit margins of evil insurance companies? OK, I&#039;ll bite. Prove it.

I have also stated that California is broke and can&#039;t pay it&#039;s obligations. It has two choices. Two choices only. Cut back on entitlements, or get bailed out by the Feds. 

With President Obama handing out pork to bribe Senators to vote his way, with Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, don&#039;t try to tell me that California won&#039;t be bailed out by the American Taxpayer.

Do not tell me that you liberals won&#039;t be happy with all of the presents that ObamaClaus will buy you this festive season, with MY tax dollars.</description>

		<description>Newsflash, Alan, free market fairy dust and tort reform will not make health care affordable and accessible to the majority of Americans.  The proponents of single payer in CA and other states have figured out how to pay for it and it will not require any more federal bacon, and will probably require less, since the profit margins of insurance cos. will no longer be a factor.

BTW, for every $1 California gives the federal government, it gets 80 cents back.</description>

		<description>Donna, 

Here is a news flash, your Bolshevik State, Caleefornia is broke. They are cutting back on their Government provided freebies. They won&#039;t be able to afford a single payer system unless Nancy Pelosi brings home the bacon and gets the rest of the country to pay for it. 

If this was doable, Rino Schwartzenegger would have proudly signed the Bill.</description>
