"If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose that Freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too." -Somerset Maugham
"I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. In my youth I traveled much, and I observed in different countries, that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer." - Ben Franklin
In these series of questions FFL President Serin Foster addresses the main pro-choice arguments. Foster describes FFL's mission saying, "We have an independent steak. When Planned Parenthood's research arm, the Guttmacher Institute, revealed the long list of reasons that were cited by women who had abortions--primary lack of resources and support--we said this is our task list. Abortion is a reflection that we haven't met the needs of women, and women deserve better."
In Houston, TX, Representative Sheila Jackson-Lee (D - TX) took the Townhall Meeting Disrespect to whole new level by taking a cell phone call while a cancer survivor was talking and asking her question.

Congresswoman claims that she called the Health care hot line to get answers for her constituents. Seems like she came to the meetings very prepared.
As an explanation she said that in Congress you have to multi-task
She used her phone while two other people were asking her questions.
Why aren't we hearing real answers about the important questions about keeping health care, end of life conversation, privacy etc.- Hannity
They are a distraction from the emotionalism and anecdotes with which Obama is selling Obamacare. the people that ask the questions are being mocked and treated as joke. There is now that questioning starting to arise even in other media and this is why they didn't want to have this long recess. The longer people have to understand the more in trouble they will be.
Apparently Obama compared the Post Office and Fedex/UPS yesterday. Basically he stated that the Fedex/UPS is doing well in this economic time btu the Post Office is suffering. So what he basically said was the Medicare/Medicaid is suffering because of Public Insurance.
Really?
So the solution to that is what?
Get rid of the private healthca...I mean private mailing options.
Hannity featured a woman who spoke out at a town hall meeting in Englewood, NJ with Congressman Steve Rothman. Diane Thurber-Wamsley talked about a very important issue in the health care bill,government funded abortions. (if anyone can find her video please let me know!)
See most people are saying that abortions aren't even in the Health Care bill....but that is the problem! Not too long ago some 19 House Democrats who are actually pro-life (Murtha of PA included) sent Pelosi a letter detailing some very imporant facts/demands.
"Without an explicit exclusion, abortion could be included in the a government subsidized heath care plan under general health care. The health care reform package produced by Congress will be landmark, and with legislation as important as this, abortion must be addressed clearly in the bill text."
Here is an idea to reducing government waste. In a New York jail 11 inmates had collected $30,000 in unemployment benefits and were slated to receive another $18,000.
"Climate Change will intensify droughts, floods and other natural disaster. Water shortages will affect hundresd of millions of people...social unrest- even violence- could follow.......We have the power to change course. But we must do it now...We have just four months. Four months to secure the future of our planet." --Ban Ki Moon, UN Secretary General
Guests: Ann Coulter, Author and Fox News Contributor Pat Caddell, Fox News Contributor (Dem) Mercedes Viana Schlapp, Republican Strategist
Hannity: Are you happy with the DNC, name calling etc? Pat Caddell: As a democrat we are supposed to be party of common people...The DNC is on lock stop and barrel by the white house...by coming out and calling people a mob.... its unprecedented, beyond insensitivity it was stupid! Hannity: That's interesting that you said that, I've never heard a democrat say that. The DNC is Obama.
Pat Caddell: I think they've (democrats) decide to push the mob idea because they want to get the issue off the specifics.
