#4 I thing he dosn't go far enough: universal health insurance should also cover the dead. After all they are loyal Democratoic voters.

#5 McCain is almost as pro illegal alien as Obama is.

#6 John McCain hasn't raised this issue, perhaps for fear of offending the Latino vote.

Which presumes legal Latinos - those who might vote for the Trunks - think those who cheated the system deserve a break for which they (the legals) will fund.

Gee, if you put it that way, it sounds pretty stupid, but I hear/read it again and again.

#8 That 80 year old has probably been paying TAXES into the system for 60-odd years as well.

While the 37 year old has probably not paid a time in federal taxes (and of course his large family has been taking advantage of free education, free lunch (and breakfast) programs, free ER care, etc... all on the 80 year old's dime)

#11 The polls I've read are clear. A healthy majority of Americans don't want this. Spread the word! Let BO pander to the illegal vote. It wll be good.

#12 Consider supporting Lou Barletta for Congress. He's the Hazleton, Pennsylvania mayor that got fed up with the illegal alien crime waves and financial raping of his city. He's running on a strong anti illegal alien platform.

#13 He may need to do it to win, but he certainly won't because he favors it maybe more so than Hussein. Haven't you heard his repeated "all God's children " talk ? It pops up in every speech. What do you surmise he is implying ? He sounds like the Catholic church. Bring them in and let the "government" take care of them. The issue is whether the Dummocrats have voting majorities in both Houses. The first thing they are going after is Universal health care. Probably within the first 30 days. If fact, Fat Ted has his crew working diligently on legislation he can put forward as his Last Hurrah. As if he hasn't done enough damage already. I think universal health is coming without doubt. What will it mean ? To control costs, the wages of physicians and other health care professionals have to be slashed drastically. The cost of medication must be smashed. But will it be done ? Probably not. They think they can just increase debt. How much longer will the Chicoms, Japanese, etc. keep investing in our debt ? Until they have a better place to invest. Such meetings are being held, nothing has transpired...yet. This is going to be a tremendous drain on our sputtering economy. It will be like another Demo jewel, education. Now if you want a child to get a decent education, you have to put them into private schooling. Meanwhile, your tax dollars are spent to educate non-citizens who pay no tax, but send money south to build nice homes they will return to when they have a large enough kitty. Big changes coming, better get ready to hunker down.

#14 Universal Health Care

is extortion funded beurocrat rationed treatment.

It's the worst system funded in the worst possbile way.

I hope Americans are smart enough to see that the government nationalising their own bodies is about the least american thing you can do.

#15 Legal Hispanics I know personally, most of which are in CA, wouldn't give illegals the sweat off their sack. It's funny, because many of them started off as illegals themselves and got legal over the years. My point is that they will split from the Dems on this issue if you have a set and explain it to them like this author does. It will cost them $$$$$ in taxes and that they can understand as well as you or I.
