Healthcare?



Well Obama is stopping by the city on Thursday I plan to attend, I am extremely excited. Its not everyday the President of the United States is in the backyard. But with him coming to town there are plenty of people not too happy about him being here. One of my friends brought up a great point; he’s making a stop in perhaps one of the most, if not the most, part of the state. There is no doubt that we will receive a standing O.
Half of the friends that I am around constantly completely disagree with the new health care bill. Whenever it is brought up at lunch or dinner I get bombarded with “There are going to be no more doctors” or “Well now I don’t want to be a doctor.” I have gotten to the point where I just don’t even try to defend it anymore. I have found the more conservative you are the more stubborn you are ☺.
So I did a little looking into the Pros and Cons of this Bill.
1.) 95% of all Americans will have health coverage… compared to the 83% now.
2.) When you lose your job, or you are sick Insurers cannot drop you…Never understood how that could happen anyway.
3.) People with pre-existing conditions will no longer be denied insurance… which insane that it has happened for so long.
4.) Children will be able to stay under parents insurance until the age of 26.

Now of course a very brief 5 points but I looked at the most influential.
There of course are bad things to come with this as well… such as the first 10 years with require 94 billion dollars on average. And there will be a tax increase on high-income people ($200,000 singly or $250,00 for a family.)
But again I don’t see how you can ever state that doctors will no longer be in demand.
Have a good night.

Barack Obama



This man impresses me more and more every single day. HE had a flaw less speech at Notre Dame where he was faced with the angriest Christians in the world, and handled it with the utmost class and delivered a chilling speech. Now we had recently passed a bill that will cut the carbon emissions down about 1/3. This is impressive he understands that this is the only place that we have to live and is not so caught up in what else is going on in the world. That is the problem its self don't forget about the things that you think will be here forever.

"Consumers pay less for fuel, which means less money going overseas and more money to save or spend here at home. The economy as a whole runs more efficiently by using less oil and producing less pollution," he said. "And companies like those here today have new incentives to create the technologies and the jobs that will provide smarter ways to power our vehicles"

Nicely Done Mr. President



If there is not already enough bad mouthing of Obama, He sure will be receiving a bit more after the yearly Easter egg roll on the white house lawn. This was like every other Easter egg roll but with the little more “change” incorporated. Most of the Attendees were Gay and Lesbian couples with kids. This such an awesome move to just shove one more thing in the face of old closed minded, rich, white, Catholic people of the world. Good Move. I like this guy more every day.

About Time


This has been the worst political commercial season i have seen, and have heard numerous people agree. This is starting to scare me, how crazy some people can get when electing a president. This is an extremely important matter i realize this, but i understand that when John McCain or Barack Obama get elected, life will go on, things will change, some good, some bad. I have also come to realize that it will be a different place no matter who is elected, and no one goes into office trying to screw things up. This is what scares me about John McCain, he needs to realize that to some people he is becoming an extremely reliable source, powerful as well. It seems as though he is not aware of that and assumes every one has an equal intelligence of his or the majority of the united states. Some people cannot think for them selves, you will be surprised how many there are, they believe what they are told. They have no interest in seeing the opposite side of the story, or the facts that are right under there nose. John McCain needs to step up realize what he is saying, who he is saying it too, and fix that false accusations that have been put upon senator Barrack Obama.
