Thank god Bush is donig the right thing and fighting hard so that these lazy children won't get their medicines that could save their lives! Its obvious to all republicans that if you aren't born into a rich familiy you deserve to die anyway!!

Obviously we need to save as much tax revenue as we can to waste (i mean invest) in bombs and bullets for a bunch of muslims on the other side of the world! Obviously only Bush has his priorities set!

And just so you know, this is about personal responsibility, if these kids can't get health care, they should get a job like the rest of us! Damn lazy socialists, with their "I wan't to see my 18th birthday, bleeding heart BS!!"

God Bless America!

Answer 1

Because we have fought hard for children to not work in labor factories. If you hate America that much why don't you go move to Indonesia? Those boys work hard for a living. They learn everything an adult does.

Answer 2

The logical progression of liberal thinking is that soon we will be paying for infants too. Even cons think that infants are cute, they should be modeling, or offering themselves for cuddles at a nominal fee, cuter babies could charge more, thereby assuring that the free market will be honored. It is after all the responsibility for babies to be born only to two parent families, (of the opposite sex, of course) and any deviation from this government mandated standard shouldn't be encouraged by allowing the infants to receive communistic health care, like inoculations. Which are also know to be part of the whole communist plot to take over.
For the elderly, well they should have taken better care of themselves, or gone over the cliff, which ever costs me less.
Its a well known fact that over seventy percent of our health dollar is spent in the last three months of someones life. So let old Aunt Millie go. Unless shes brain dead, then lets keep those machines going 'cause all life is beautiful, sacred as long as Bush, the man who as governor loved executions, says so.

For those of you unfamiliar with the actual cost of health care, insurance for a family of four, can cost upwards of $1500 a month. Can you afford that? Afford means you won't go hungry so that the CEO of Aetna can buy his twenty seventh classic car.

Answer 3

LOL Cute rant in it's own sarcastic way, however I'd like to know what's in the play room of those "kids"? Wow look at that Ted has an X-Box 360 and 20 games and Sara has an I-Phone wow and oh dear mommy and daddy need some one else to pay for health insurance since they can't afford it. Okay, I can see a helping hand once and while but please too many people abuse the system and individual responsibility should be a factor in the assistance.

Answer 4

Obviously, the thought that kids are not responsible for their own blight in life is non-existent here. The dead beat parents, who either abandon, or neglect their childrens health to save the next buck for another pack of cigarettes, may offer up some assistance if it is paid for by government funds. George is against abortion because it is morally repugnant, killing children. He is against sex ed because once again that belongs to parents who just don't want the burden, so let the government pay for it. Liberals need to grow up, take responsbility for their own actions, including having children and the full time care of them till they are of age. Then, let them go get a job, or more than likely, just pattern themselves to their dead beat parents and suck off the democrats their entire life.

Anyway, by the time they grow up, the Mexicans will be in power and everyone will be running to Mexico anyway!

Answer 5

Why don't their parents get a job like the rest of us? The government could take the money they are wasting on the space program and motivate the lazy parents to take care of their own off spring.

Answer 6

did the NYLeftist print the part about allowing states to decide if the plan will also cover illegal immigrants?

Or the part where other research shows that near 70% of people in the 2x to 3x of poverty level income (who will be included) already have health care coverage for their kids and the effect of this plan would be for companies to reduce their contributions to their health plan since the government will be covering the kids?


no, I guess the Leftist was rabble rousing as usual and you got roused.


better luck next time,

Answer 7

Over 90% of children enrolled in SCHIP's have jobs. It's a program for the working poor - not the indigent.

Answer 8

This is what's wrong with the Bush adminsitration.
As I posted earlier no family should receive health care funds if they make more that $20,650!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Let the states take care of it citizens themselves, because this admininstration sure doesn't know how!

Answer 9

The children are lazy- that's why they don't have health care?

Well gee.... that is something to think about-maybe we should have child labor laws repealed so they can pay for their coverage.

This might not be the solution but you are being a little harsh.

Answer 10

My parents didn't have a health care plan ,but I'm alive and healthy at 37. If these parents would make their kids get exercise and proper nutrition, most of the illnesses children suffer could be avoided. Or those parents could hock their big screen T.V's,cell phones and video games in order to take their children to a friggin doctor.

Answer 11

I know it! It's all these welfare bums that are raising our taxes and causing a deficit. If teenagers just went to church and kept their legs crossed, they wouldn't be pushing out a baby a year. Never mind they are raising future troops, we need those babies to fight chickenhawk wars....like any con kids will be fighting for corporate interests overseas. You'd think it'd be in their best interests to make sure future troops are in the best of health so they can fight. Well, I guess if they want to fight bad enough, they'll make sure they eat right and exercise properly and get themselves properly immunized WITHOUT RAISING ANYONE'S TAXES!
