One thing is for sure. Just saying "NO" doesn't accomplish the objectives that need to be addressed.[/QUOTE]

There seems to be two parts to this health care debate. The first is weather the government SHOULD mandate health care coverage and the second being weather we SHOULD ram a program through this year, never mind before the summer recess. The just say no's may be equally split between the two parts, but the overall result is they both say NO. Cramming a proposal down our throats just to say we did SOMETHING in OB's first year is not what the people want. WE THE PEOPLE have no problem expressing a NO to higher taxes, social security reform, military spending, etc. ,why is it wrong to say NO to health care at this point? It took a lifetime to get to where we are in health care and it is unwise to think that the government can set a specific date this year to solve the problems.
