Senator Kent Conrad blamed the biased media for our “ignorance” in not wanting government run healthcare.  This is the very same liberal media that campaigns for Democrats, promotes their causes with lies and has circled the wagons around him to protect him from any fallout for accepting preferential treatment from Countrywide. President Obama believes that we will eventually come around if we simply hear him read one more speech from his teleprompter. The American people have shouted a resounding “no” to socialized medicine. We have spoken and that is final.

We said “no” to paying for health insurance policies for those who don’t want to work or peruse a meaningful career on top of the free healthcare they already get at our expense. We said “no” to paying for healthcare for illegal aliens.

We said “no” to killing more jobs with new tax hikes and employer mandates as the real and unreported unemployment rate nears great depression levels. We said “no” to the mother of all entitlement programs when the government cannot afford the ones they already have. We said “no” to the bankrupt federal government spending more of our money and “no” to borrowing the rest from COMMUNIST China in our children’s names. Seniors said “no” to gutting Medicare and putting another nail in the coffin of Social Security.

We said “no” to government coming between us and our doctor, healthcare rationing and groveling at the feet of our  elected officials after we (or our loved ones) are given the death sentence and denied life saving treatment by a government death panel. We said “no” to six month waits to see a doctor with an additional six month wait to begin life saving treatments. We said “no” to dying while waiting to see a doctor. We said “no” to destroying the best healthcare system in the world.

We said “no” to denying our children the freedoms and opportunity that we grew up with and enjoy today. We said “no” to serfdom, government imposed poverty and European socialism.  We said “no” to turning this much power over to our imperial federal government.

What part of “no” do these tyrants and thugs not understand? Do they understand that they serve us and that they don’t rule over us? Perhaps they would understand a catchy phrase like “It’s about our freedom stupid”. Of course they would, but the problem is that our freedom is what they are after.
