Patient Choice Act

If this was what the current administration had proposed, instead of their fast road down a slippery slope to a single-payer system (which is their ultimate goal - just ask Barney Frank!), I would have been on board in a heart beat.

This plan seems fair, and seeks to *not* add to the deficit while still providing that all Americans get affordable health care insurance tailored to their specific needs - as opposed to the Obamaniac's reckless push to both get this country to a single-payer system, and bankrupt us.

However, don't hold your breath waiting for Congress as a whole to jump on board with this. Why not? Two reasons:
1. It was not proposed by the NSDWP* (aka Dems), therefore it isn't worth considering;
2. It gives power to the People, which this administration is adamantly opposed to, as power equals control. If the People have control, then that means that the government doesn't, and that will never, ever, do.

Poll: Americans losing confidence in Obama

As reported here, [a] new poll says that Americans, concerned over the future of health care reform and anxious about the growing federal budget deficit, are losing faith in President Barack Obama.

The Washington Post-ABC News survey found that less that half of Americans - 49 percent - say they believe the president will make the right decisions for the country. That's down from 60 percent at the 100-day mark of the Obama presidency.

The poll published Friday says Obama's overall approval is 57 percent, 12 points lower than it was at its peak in April. Fifty-three percent disapprove of the way he's handling the budget deficit and his approval on health care continues to deteriorate.

The national survey was conducted Aug. 13-17 and has a sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points.

Looks like at least some of the "52ers" are finally starting to wake up. All I can say is, it's about time.
