A statement from President Bush regarding national security? Nope. John Edwards on health care. If you’re in the universal health care plan he’s brought forward, you won’t have choice. “You have to be monitored”. “We don’t just cover preventive care, we mandate preventive care”. Rings somewhat of fascism, no? Allah writes:
The whole thrust of the Constitution is that private actors are allowed to do things the state isn’t because official abuses have their own inertia. The left has no trouble grasping that in the context of wireless wiretapping. A smile from Silky, though, and a promise that he’s doing it for your own good and suddenly some of them are willing to prescribe mandatory psychiatric “check-ups.”
All of you Democrats out there are just fine with having no choice in your own health care unless you can afford an independent insurance plan that’s better than this one, right? Thank God we have betters like John Edwards to make our health decisions for us. Who are we? Adults capable of making our own decisions? Not under Edwards.
I have no problem with the government going through my medical records and forcing me to take physicals. Maybe even a nice Logan’s Run-type system would help with spiraling medical costs.
But if Bushitler thinks he can go through my library records… it’s on.
