The Blue Dogs are lapdogs. When they had the chance to do the right thing, they simply became towel boys again for Henry Waxman

This amendment was considered as part of the Obamacare bill  

Notwithstanding any other provision of law,

 

no unauthorized aliens shall be eligible for any item

 

or service furnished under this title.

  It was rejected by ONE vote. Looks like an awful lot of Blue Dogs must've got castrated. Let's see how the folks in Bart Gordon's district, Zack Space's district and Bart Stupak's district like these apples Oh and Virginia's Rick Boucher was absent. Maybe the voters of VA 9 can make that a permanent situation in 2010.

We should cover all people in the world who don't have healthcare.  Think globally and act locally.  Why should rich Americans have more than their fair share of good healthcare?

you cannot have both open borders and a welfare state.

I presume you are in favor of international "patient dumping"?

 

Sorry, Ironman, I thought I was being obviously sarcastic.

But that's the next obvious step if we start covering illegal aliens.  I hit most of the liberal cliches.  Yea, border control wouldn't be as difficult if we didn't have a welfare state. I <3 Milton Friedman.

emergency money

The health care bill can be a great help for the citizen of this country especially in times of crisis wherein many are financially troubled. Any form of assistance from the government is badly needed for them to get their lives back. We all run short every now and again due to a financial emergency, and that's when we need some emergency money.  Not everyone has emergency money in savings, and that's when you look into emergency loans.  You can't always get them from a bank, as they require extensive applications and credit checks, which is why payday lenders exist, and if you're hard up and need a solution fast, there are online loan applications available.  No fax required, and lenders can use direct deposit to wire you the funds you need.  Also, if you need to make installment payments on your emergency money loans, many lenders have installment loans options available.
