We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. (Abraham Lincoln)

Thousands Rally in Capital to Protest Big Government

The Whole Foods Alternative to ObamaCare
Eight things we can do to improve health care without adding to the deficit.
With a projected $1.8 trillion deficit for 2009, several trillions more in deficits projected over the next decade, and with both Medicare and Social Security entitlement spending about to ratchet up several notches over the next 15 years as Baby Boomers become eligible for both, we are rapidly running out of other people’s money. These deficits are simply not sustainable. They are either going to result in unprecedented new taxes and inflation, or they will bankrupt us.
While we clearly need health-care reform, the last thing our country needs is a massive new health-care entitlement that will create hundreds of billions of dollars of new unfunded deficits and move us much closer to a government takeover of our health-care system. Instead, we should be trying to achieve reforms by moving in the opposite direction—toward less government control and more individual empowerment.

Free Medical Care with satisified patients and No Impact to our Financial Future
We demonize all those involved in the medical care profession; too expensive, not caring, too much waste, too long of a wait, and poor judgment.
The medical profession recently showed us they are not the villian nor does the government need to be involved to take care of those that cant afford insurance.
How can we build off of this success nationwide and not plow our county further into debt?
CLEVELAND, Ohio — The national health-care crisis had hundreds of faces Saturday and one destination: a modest high-rise in University Circle where hundreds of medical and lay volunteers provided free care to nearly a thousand Ohioans who lacked health insurance.
“You should have had Obama here today. This is what he should see,” said Dr. Donald Hricik, a University Hospitals specialist in nephrology and hypertension.
What the president would have seen Saturday was a mass of people in need who began showing up at 5 a.m. at the W.O. Walker Center, a complex jointly operated by the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals.
Three of the floors were taken over by the MedWorks project, which Cleveland Heights banker Zak Ponsky has been planning and organizing for at least a year.

What’s the Meaning of ‘Freedom’?….Dont ask a Politician
“[M]an is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”
- Ronald Reagan
We’ve all heard the words democracy and freedom used countless times, especially in the context of our invasion of Iraq. They are used interchangeably in modern political discourse, yet their true meanings are very different.
George Orwell wrote about “meaningless words” that are endlessly repeated in the political arena. Words like “freedom,” “democracy,” and “justice,” Orwell explained, have been abused so long that their original meanings have been eviscerated. In Orwell’s view, political words are “often used in a consciously dishonest way.” Without precise meanings behind words, politicians and elites can obscure reality and condition people to reflexively associate certain words with positive or negative perceptions. In other words, unpleasant facts can be hidden behind purposely meaningless language. As a result, Americans have been conditioned to accept the word “democracy” as a synonym for freedom, and thus to believe that democracy is unquestionably good.
The problem is that democracy is not freedom. Read More

Stay informed on ongoing public policy discussions on health care
I am a member of the WellPoint Health Action Network, www.healthactionnetwork.com, and I am writing to encourage you to join as well.
The U.S. needs a strong, sustainable health care system. As a nation, we must take thoughtful steps that preserve what is best about American health care, while also working to extend coverage to the uninsured. Through the Health Action Network, I am able to stay informed about the ongoing public policy discussions on health care. The organizations website also provides tools that make it easy for me to communicate with elected officials about health care issues.
There is no cost to join and participate. Health care is critically important to all of us.
Please visit the Health Action Network, www.healthactionnetwork.com, and join me in supporting public policies that will make our nation’s health care system stronger. Thank you.
