NO ONE is saying preserve the status quo. NO ONE! We are saying we want TORT REFORM (caps on punitive damages and lawyers fees with the loser paying the winners court and lawyer costs), we want INTERSTATE ACCESS to health insurance, we want SOME REGULATION and STRICT OVERSIGHT of insurance company tactics, we want our elected representatives to DETECT, INVESTIGATE, and ELIMINATE/PROSECUTE the fraud, corruption, and inefficiencies in SS, Medicare, Medicaid, VA Services, and all social programs and gov’t agencies currently operating. We want Congress and the President to THROW THEIR SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS UNDER THE BUS, and actually do something for the American citizens, for CHANGE WE CAN SUPPORT. Stop protecting those big supporters of your re-election, who promise you the means to increase YOUR OWN wealth and power. Show some integrity and do the job you were elected to do.

obama has a sign on his back and front it says"more government spending and control". didn't you see that when you voted for him. he makes king george the third look like a saint. this guy is going to bankrupt the country. why won't he go talk to o'reilly the most viewers in the country watch oreilly every night. i haven't seen obama on tv because i don't watch any other news program. being fair means hearing both sides not just the left. oreilly has both on his program.check it out. it will hurt some of you liberals to watch tho becuase you will be exposed to both sides and then it becomes very clear that freedom is won by the people not the government. i want the federal government to do one thing. protect our country from invaders and our foregin intersts. i do not want them involed in state issues or my personal issues.

if you look in the dictionary under the word ,corrupted , you will find the definition ,it says: lobbyist!

Duh. No one in their right mind want's more of Obama/Pelosi/Reid's corrupt government intruding in or having control over our lives. Is this a surprise?

The only real surprise is that it is not 100% against more government intrusion.

Runaway federal deficits inevitably result in future tax increases, a weakened dollar and higher inflation. My guess is that the Democrats will delay most tax increases until after the 2010 elections in order to reduce the number of seats they will lose in Congress. Delayed or not, middle class Americans will pay dearly for the waste and corruption that Obami, Nancy Pelosi, Barney Franks and other free spending and ACORN supporting Democrats are advocating.

Health care, now defined as a "natural right", dictates public "control" over your health choices. Unhealthy choices become unacceptable or even illegal. Once established, this concept logically extends to a "natural right" to food, housing and income, all of which can now be defined as "essential natural rights". The next step is to control your diet, your exercise program, the acceptable size of your house and a cap on your "excessive" income. Don't tell anyone but this is the essence of communism. You voted for this and it is here.

I agree.The new admin is getting into to much of what they do not need to be involved in.This is a precursor to socialism more or less,although I don't see it going that far because the senate and congress will not allow it to happen.Right now the pres and admin cannot take care of their own buisness much less the publics

democrats beg to be lead around by the nose, I guess there is comfort in knowing that the government will take care of you. Its a way of giving up personal responsibility and Obama is playing to those feelings. The majority do not want a nanny state and market socialism is only there to give the masses that warm and fuzzy feeling.

First, as with our healthcare debackle, we are headed toward socialism. Congress will not call it that unless it is officially labled it as socialism. Point in fact, Obama on ABC as to whether a labled Tax was really a Tax in the Senate Health bill. Student loans, auto industry, finance industry, power industry, where will it end?
Second, nothing will be done to help jobs in this recovery by the Government. It would be counter to their objectives. More jobs would mean more families covered by health insurance, more real money going into the economy, and a strenghting of the dollar. The stronger we the people become this less likely we will look to Big Gov. for assistance.
Third but definately not least look at the people who surround and have been appointed by the President. Tax cheats, avowed socialists, and racists. Based on his first ten months in office, I give the Presiden a failing grade. I will also closely examine closely every bill and proposal submitted by himself and the Democratic leaders.

This country was build on the premise of individual initiative and it thrived. Elected officials do not have to FIX every thing. Some times things will fix themselves with time. Government has come into our homes and family life way to much. GET OUT AND STAY THE HECK OUT
