It does my heart good to see the American people involved once again. There was a time when I thought maybe I was the only one who was concerned with the direction we were headed. To see so many giving of their time to come out and share their opinion/concerns over the healthcare bill is great. That is, when you are allowed to speak or even lucky enough to find your elected official bold enough to hold a townhall in the first place. Then you are confronted with being called unamerican,disingenuous,astroturf,etc. These labels and remarks only lead us on to fight another day. It was just a short time ago that the very ones who now call those opposed to this bad healthcare bill, unamerican were espousing the virtues of debate and decent for their sheep( I mean followers) Wasn't it the great Mrs. Clinton who once shouted "WE HAVE A RIGHT TO DEBATE AND DISAGREE WITH ANY ADMINISTRATION" Yet now it is unamerican or racist to oppose,debate or disagree with THIS administration. They cannot have it both ways. And as much as I disagreed with their views on the past administration, I did not deny them their right to be heard. Those of us who are opposed to this healthcare bill must and will speak loudly and demand we be heard.This is truely a watershed issue and to sit on the sidelines is the same as saying,"take my money and my childrens inheritance and please don't be shy to ask for more" Well I am saying "Stay the hell out of my pockets!" It's time to unite, do not grow complacent, do not live your life hoping the government will take care of you. You hold in your hands the ability to grow wise,prosperous to achieve all you desire and to create your own legacy. Believe in your God given rights, stand for justice,fight for freedom, and let it be heard around the world"Give me liberty or give me death"My fellow Americans, will you stand for the cause of freedom or will you kneel in submission to tyranny? There is no other choice,
