For those of you who are attacking those rallying against the current healthcare bill, I ask you...Is it because you have your own hand out? Is it your belief that everyone has a right to free stuff from the government? Do you wish to take the easy road by drinking koolaid only from the government trough?

Shame on you. You embarrass yourselves and our country by your ignorance of our nation's history - and when you eschew hard work and self reliance over hand outs.

You represent ALL the people in your district and I urge you to see a bigger picture of our country as it is being sold down a river of tears being shed by our founding fathers.

Is it too much to ask that our President be a visionary, as well as a capable, consummate leader taking us in a direction that a majority of the population wants to go? Apparently so.
