THE PRESIDENT'S INFECTIOUS SMILE ON STAGE TONIGHT

SPECIAL POST

President Obama goes to the famous teleprompter tonight again, (he's got more TV time logged already than most Presidents have in a full term). He's set to convince us that his health care reform plans have to be passed and passed right now or the sky is going to fall in, just like the stimulus.

This is the way I see it. We have 25 million people out of work. While we all acknowledge that changes need to be made to cap rising health care costs, the very first priority this country must face is to get people back to work. If we don't get people back to work now, the sky WILL fall in.

We have no business taking on more debt for anything while people are out of work.

The President's ballyhooing about how his "stimulus" and TARP and Omnibus were going to cure the economy have proven themselves to be wrong. We do not need to be pushed, cajoled, or bullied into another costly mistake.

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
