The American right tries to push an agenda of uncompromising Social Darwinism.If you can't afford it,you don't deserve to get it,that's the whole idea in a nutshell.
Social Darwinism, term coined in the late 19th century to describe the idea that humans, like animals and plants, compete in a struggle for existence in which natural selection results in “survival of the fittest.” Social Darwinists base their beliefs on theories of evolution developed by British naturalist Charles Darwin. Some social Darwinists argue that governments should not interfere with human competition by attempting to regulate the economy or cure social ills such as poverty. Instead, they advocate a laissez-faire political and economic system that favors competition and self-interest in social and business affairs. Social Darwinists typically deny that they advocate a “law of the jungle.” But most propose arguments that justify imbalances of power between individuals, races, and nations because they consider some people more fit to survive than others.
This is jungle capitalism,survival of the fittest.It also shows most of the American right isn't pro life but pro birth.Once you're out of the womb you better have parents with money or you're on your own.
That's the issue here.The American right ranting and raving socilaism is gonna take over America with no basis in reality while they are pushing social Darwinism,According to ThinkQuest:
Social Darwinist thinking stems from the fact that the theory falls into the “naturalistic fallacy,” which consists of trying to derive an ought statement from an is statement. For example, the fact that you stubbed your toe this morning does not logically imply that you ought to have stubbed your toe! The same argument applies to the Social Darwinists’ attempt to extend natural processes into human social structures. This is a common problem in philosophy, and it is commonly stated that it is absolutely impossible to derive ought from is (though this is still sometimes disputed); at the very least, it is impossible to do it so simply and directly as the Social Darwinists did.

The Schip is just one of the ways to move the US Economy toward socialism. One step at a time.
Not only will you be paying for the kids of middle class parents, but the kids of illegals.
Slowly Billarry will work towards bringing everything under government control. Inflating government, inflating the tax base, inflating her power...
The cut and run Moveon.org Democratic party is slowly trying to work towards there agenda, and some left wing, liberal sucker are starting to buy into it. Her plan is starting to work on some I guess.
Get out your wallet.

I don't think he is. He passed the prescription drug act years ago ( new entitlement) andhe's been trying to raise the test scores of American children in schools so that's not his background.
THE REAL DEAL is that this bill would have qualified people making 80,000$ per year to put their children on government funded health insurance. That means we would be paying OUR TAX DOLLARS to buy insurance for people who could buy it themselves.
The SCHIP program was intended TO HELP POOR CHILDREN not the children of the wealthy. But it was easy for the Democrats to make it look like he was vetoing children's health.
Don't buy into that. Bush told them to amend the bill and he would sign it. Of course they didn't try to amend it at all they just sent it back to him a second time to make him look like he was a real a**hole.
THAT'S POLITICS

Why do you think Nancy Pelosi is saying F**K the AMERICAN TAXPAYER by socializing the medical care for people making as much as $86,000 per year.
Why do you think it is acceptable to STEAL money from me and my children to give to someone who makes more money than me.
Why do you think that Bush or any other Republican will blink just because the liberals trot out the "what about the children" platitude.
We will not accept socialism just because the liberals put on a phony emotional display. We know what you are attempting.

possible sobriety issues for whoever is considering this question.. when you think about it in an unaltered state what bush is saying is taxpayer dollars are not needed to fund families making eighty thou a year that are perfectly capable of paying for thier own insurance. he is also saying that liberal pap policy is not needed for programs that work better that are already in place. by the way, a better post for you might be what will work for the impending hangover. good luck.

Sometimes a bad bill is just a bad bill.
If the Dems want to help the kids, they'd pass a bill they knew he'd pass in the first place. Better to help 4 million kids now, eh? Or just scrap them all and play politics?

Whenever the Democrats say "it's for the children...", hold onto your wallets.
