Op-Ed Of The Day
I know of people who believe health care should be a right, but as I said in my latest radio spot, they may not even get a choice between their job and health insurance because their employer may have to make that choice for them, and you can thank the Democrat Party for what’s to come.
Say this about the 1,018-page health-care bill that House Democrats unveiled this week and that President Obama heartily endorsed: It finally reveals at least some of the price of the reckless ambitions of our current government. With huge majorities and a President in a rush to outrun the declining popularity of his agenda, Democrats are bidding to impose an unrepealable European-style welfare state in a matter of weeks.
Mr. Obama’s February budget provided the outline, but the House bill now fills in the details. To wit, tax increases that would take U.S. rates higher even than most of Europe. Yet even those increases aren’t nearly enough to finance the $1 trillion in new spending, which itself is surely a low-ball estimate. Meanwhile, the bill would create a new government health entitlement that will kill private insurance and lead to a government-run system.
So thank every Democrat you see, especially the ones who tried to make you believe in Barack Obama and change. We’re all paying now for these liberals run amok, and hopefully we will make them pay later… let’s say a year from November.

My big problem is whether I can make it to that year from November…
