Don't you just love this? Is this the mentality of our leaders today? The restructuring of the greatest health care system in the world is about to take place, and leaders of our country don't feel it is important enough to actually warrant, taking the time needed to read and, more importantly, understand what is in the health care bill. It's pretty simple. If John Conyers (D), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is admitting that: he hasn't read and, wouldn't be able to understand what is in the Bill, without the assistance of a legal team to decipher it, How could he honestly say that he is earning his taxpayers funded salary, he receives, to represent the citizens of this country? Can he honestly claim he is looking out for Americans best interest? Even if he could care less about how the health care reform bill might negatively affect the citizens of the United States, wouldn't he, and others in office who also have not read the Bill, be concerned about what is in this proposal that might directly affect them, and their families, personally? Unless, of course, it won't. I believe President Obama, his family, and all the members of congress and their families, would be exempt from having to forfeit their coverage and join this beautiful new plan they are putting together for the rest of us. No wonder they could care less about what's in this massive restructuring bill. It doesn't apply to them. The President already stated, in his press conference, on T.V. last week that; this wasn't about him, he has great insurance.

Look, this is really just common sense and the practice of good judgement. Every person, who has ever been involved with agreements, legal forms or contracts, has been advised; read everything before you sign it, make sure you understand what it is you are signing and to take their time, don't rush into anything with out first considering all the implications of what you are about to do.

To Mr. Conyers, and everyone else in congress that refuses to represent us, in the capacity which you were elected, either slow down and take the time needed to do your job, or come 2010, we will get you out of there and put in place leaders who will. I'm just saying.

What do we really expect from a campaign promise? Is it really the Presidents fault? I mean, He was just saying what we wanted to hear. Right ? I'm sure McCain made a few promises that, If he would have won the election, he would have had to break himself. So goes the nature of a politician. Don't get me wrong, I am mad as H**L about this and you should be too. But what really makes me mad is the ignorance, ( yes I said it IGNORANCE : the state or fact of being ignorant : lack of knowledge, education, or awareness. source Websters Dictionary ) , of the people who voted for him, blindly, based on the promises he made. All through the presidential campaign, economic analysts and non partisan news agency's were reporting that, with his platform and proposals, there was no way that Obama would be able to fund his programs and ideas WITHOUT raising taxes. Were they not listening ? Are people that lazy, when deciding on who should run this country, that they wouldn't take the time to research this themselves. Or at least listen to and consider what opposing voices were saying. Sure there were debates, but were they paying attention or just standing "Star Struck " in awe of the messiah who was going to deliver us from....ourselves ??

I am mad at the lies, but I am furious with the " Majority " of this country, who voted blindly and, now that things are not turning out how they hoped with our new president, are starting to complain and whine that " This isn't what we signed up for". Even the media that was " in the can " for Obama, during the election, are starting to get disenfranchised with their leader. All I can say is, " QUIT WHINING !!, We ( as a nation ) put him there. It's nobodies fault but the ones who elected him to office "

OK, I'm done venting. Now, what are we gonna do about it. There is hope, but we have to inform ourselves so as to not be misled again. With that knowledge, we need to inform others. Believe me, people are starting to listen. We need to take responsibility as individuals, come together as a nation of informed citizens. 2010 is coming, research the officials we will be voting on. start now, paying attention to who our next president should be in 2012, Start looking for the right candidate, not the right party affiliation. I believe we messed up last election, but if it happens again, we'll have no one to blame but ourselves.
