Ramblings...

I have just been sitting here and thinking about this whole SCHIP thing and Bush's Veto.
He's talking about families that make $83,000 per year putting their kids on Federal Insurance Programs.
Does he think we are all stupid morons?
Tell me what family who earns in that bracket doesn't have private Insurance and in all likelihood either pays nothing or not much, and even if it costs alot, they could probably afford it.
Picture these people sitting in the lobby of a State Clinic - just the thought of that makes me laugh.
I have been on State Insurance (Medicaid) and let me tell you, it is no fun having to go to a Clinic for Medical Care and Treatment. The lines are long, the Doctors are too busy and the scenery is generally not pretty(!)
Come on Mr. Bush, tell me what you know about living at or below the poverty level. What do you know about being poor and unable to provide medical care for your sick child? What about being poor and having a child die because you couldn't afford the Insurance to cover the Medical Procedure that could have saved your child's life.
Bush quit your double talking bullshit and help us to care for our children.

I think I "get it". Our world has turned topsy turvey,has been heading that way for decades. President Bush is not the problem.
The problem is the dumb as rocks citizens who have never read the US Constitution (this includes all liberal politicians and many conservative ones).
No where in the annals of time has our country's government had any business whatsoever meddling in health care.
This is an issue that should be handled by private enterprise.
I read a comment somewhere on this site where "maybe the next President will help us take care of our children".
Let me share my thoughts with you.
That is not the President's job.
That is your job. If you cannot afford to have kids and fulfill their needs, what in God's name are you doing producing them?
That is irresponsibility of the highest order, bordering on child abuse as far as I am concerned. You should be ashamed to want the government make me use my hard-earned money to care for your kids! I chose to not have kids - and now you want me to pay for your roll in the hay!

The One Campain To Make Poverty History!

http://action.one.org/dia/organizationsONE/one/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=1293&t=OneColumn.dwt

U2 frontman Bono visited Chicago, where he brought a little "star power" to a new campaign.

Dear ONE Member,
This Saturday at 1:27 AM, we scored a crucial victory against poverty as Congress passed important trade legislation.
The final votes for the bill were:
Yea
Nay
House of Representatives
212
184
Senate
79
9
When ONE Members first took action to protect the “third-country fabric” provision of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) in September, it was little more than an obscure clause in a massive trade bill. Thanks in part to the hundreds of thousands of letters ONE Members sent to Congress, we were able to help get this important provision on the radar.

I just got this in my email and I am thrilled!!

I have a banner on this Blog for this campain, please click on it to find out how you can help!

Not all rock stars are impressed with Bono's Rockstars Against Poverty Spiel. Meet one of them. Denmark's playboy bad boy Ridge Bangkaulk is one of them, arguing that you should support Rock Stars for Poverty, cause if some weren't dirt poor, how could he be filthy rich? Do you feel his pain?
