The simple question. Why are Congress and the White House pursuing a Health-Care or Medical Insurance initiative that will cost over 2 trillion dollars (Harry Reid's recent acknowledgement) at a time when the country needs fiscal restraint to fix its own economic health?
This was for sure a sobering article. What we are deeper in depth than we have been in our previous 200 year history combined ? Yes and then the slip of the tongue by Reid. Boy are we in deep doo doo. We can't get rid of these clowns fast enough.
