And let us not forget that instead of threatening the lawmakers themselves, by going to the homes and calling the phone numbers you are threatening children. Children? You have to threaten children to feel better about yourself?

Like the ones that Obama has been bragging about saving, when that IMPORTANT part of this HOLY legislation was forgotten?
And we have people telling us that the congressmen knew what they were voting on?
Hell, the president didn't even know! And he's the leader of the party!

I don't know where John Boehner received his education in American history, but violent response is the QUINTESSENTIAL "American Way" in times of tyranny and government oppression. If not for violent response on the part of the American People, this nation would still be under British rule.

If any children were actually threatened.

Thats whats insidiousness with it isnt it? This is nothing more than foot in the door legislation. They will use this legislation (over time) to make inroads elsewhere. Everything can be argued to be tied to health...Everything. All your choices can be tied to your well being and health at some level. After passing this their possibilities are endless.

Everything you just said is word for word what certain radio and TV talking heads tell you to think. Agreeing and accepting the opinions of others is fine, but you're putting your own credibility on the line for an opinion you didn't come to on your own.
All i'm really saying is don't allow the media to fill in the blanks for you, and prey on your fears. Wait this out and see if things turn out the way some people are saying, and if it doesn't, join the group mocking the people who made those claims.
