My Thoughts on Three Topics

If you agree that there's a problem with communication between the President and the rest of the USofA, raise your hand. Well, that's every US Citizen and green-card holder. All the others will need the question translated into Spanish. But their vote doesn't count (unless the Democrats are counting).

First topic: Something that really makes me sick to my stomach is reading on-line responses to various news articles posted by readers. It appears that everyone thinks he has the right to disparage and disrespect our President. The ridicule and the language used is contemptuous. Why do people think they have the right to call the President 4-letter words? Not only do they dishonor and insult the Office of the Presidency, they appear to be rude and insolent. No wonder other cultures look at ours and say "we don't want any."

Second topic: It appears that President Bush has not been forthright about his agenda. It appears that he is orchestrating the North American Union without the knowledge and approval of US Citizens. NAFTA, "the Highway," and now the SSP summit in Canada. It's going to be a Global One World Village destined to remove the rights and privileges in the Constitution and Bill of Rights from US Citizens. It's an insidious plan that will not just take us back to 1776, but back to the Dark Ages.

Third topic: Universal Health Care. As you know, if you've read my blog, I am totally against such a beast. Because it will be a beast to deal with. For argument's sake, let's say we have Universal Health Care -- some smaller County Hospitals will close and will become clinics without benefit of various medical labs, like the MRI, C-T scan, or the ability to do anything more than diagnose and write prescriptions. If the patient needs to be hospitalized, there may be a small unit with maybe half a dozen beds where the patient will wait until a bed becomes open in one of the larger hospitals in a nearby (hopefully) larger city. So you go have blood work done at the clinic after your stroke and you need an MRI and possibly an operation. But the MRI machine that was at your small County Hospital before Universal Health Care is no longer in use and there is no one trained to use it. So you're placed on a waiting list for your MRI at the "big" Hospital. The problem is, you're not the only one waiting for the MRI. The big Hospital serves 24 Counties and the waiting list is long. You've had a stroke. You need surgery but can't have surgery until the MRI is completed. You don't have time to wait months for your turn at the MRI. Your life is at stake!

What do you do? WELL, if you had lived in Canada before the USofA went "Universal Health Care," you would have driven across the border and gone to any US Hospital in just about any County or Town or City. The ER would have admitted you, taken any insurance information you had, gotten you into the MRI within a short time and you'd have gone directly into surgery, had the blood clot removed and whatever other medical needs you had and within 24 to 36 hours you'd be laying in your hospital room bed, thankful that at least the USofA had AVAILABLE Health Care. See, that's is the difference. You can have "Universal Health Care" where everyone has to wait in line, OR, you can have "Available Health Care" where you walk into a Hospital Emergency Room (or are admitted by your personal physician) and your medical needs are taken care of nearly immediately. But you cannot have both. Who you vote for and how you vote may determine your fate and the fate of every US Citizen. (Not to mention the millions of illegal aliens who currently use the USofA with impunity.)

But the proponents of "Universal Health Care" don't explain that part to you. And not only that, Congress will not be a subscriber to the same "Universal Health Care" plan that everyone else is forced to use. That's right. Not only will they not draw Social Security, they will still have access to the best "available health care." It's the privilege of the elite class. You know, people like Sen. H R Clinton and Sen. B H Obama. They talk it, but they won't walk it. Ever. They keep their money and force you to share yours. Think about it.
