A president makes a speech on prime time tv and so to republicans it's obviously a coup and an obvious takeover.

People who have money would be taxed big time to pay for illegals health care. Hospitals are already over ran with them now. I know, My fiancées a nurse at a major hospital. The Mexicans are flooding the place, especially with new born baby's.
I know that I don't want to be paying for them.

So in summation to your post I believe your view can be expressed like this:
No government run health care it's bad.
Keep health care private, if your rich and can afford insurance then get all the treatment you need.
If your too poor to afford insurance, please do the rest of us a favor, climb into a dumpster before you die.
Gotcha! I think I completely understand your opposition to health care in this country.

At the risk of missing the point....
I understand the passionate fun many folks have debating health 'care' but I thought the OP was about how the US Federal Government can co-opt a commercial (privately owned) media broadcast to proselytize a 'plan' proposed by a single party to overhauls an American institution and have it 'sponsored' but NOT have a dissenting opinion represented in the presentation.
As if Americans were all 'customers' of the Federal Government and this is a 'product' they are 'marketing.'

This is different from Fox news how?
Please, enlighten me how Fox news is not a mouthpiece (as you put it) for the Republican party.
As I have said before and you obviously haven't gotten to yet. The media is very slanted. There are right wing stations that are just as much in the pockets of the republican party as there are in liberal media.
