Time to start writing about the 2008 Presidential race.
Here are a couple interesting thoughts on health care under a potential President H.R. Clinton:
Rudy Giuliani had a great quote: If we institute Hillarycare, where will the Canadians go for health care?
On that point, have you ever had to get a drivers license, or a building permit, or do you already have to work through the Medicare nightmare to get health care, or have you ever had to see a doctor in a foreign country — not third world — I’m talking about countries in Europe or Australia or Canada? Think about the people you had to deal with and the bureaucracy you had to put up with. Is that really what you want your health care system to be?
Don’t post some comment about how everyone is covered there. Everyone is covered here too. My nephew just had brain surgery and the only difference between his care and the care of the immigrant kids that were in the hospital at the same time is that his care was paid for by my brother-in-law and his insurance, whereas the immigrant families all got their care for free.

Hillary care is about Republican ineffectiveness as it is about the situation that has caused it. It would be great if the Republicans had a solution other than tax credits to solve this national problem. When the upper-middle class starts to complain about the high cost of health care you know something will be done about it.
Republicans have to stop dreaming of back to the future when Reagan was President. The 1980’s are almost a generation ago in history and the problems this country face cannot be solved by the old formulas.
We Republicans have handed the healthcare issue to the Democrats on a silver plate and they benefit from are inability to view the federal government as nothing but a necessary evil. We get what we deserve in 2008.

If you need medical care, go to India or Thailand. It’s better, cheaper and you don’t even need insurance
