    We do have to remember he's NOT in the business of helping those who unfortunately have run into a disaster or bad times. He's in the business of helping himself to make millions that's why he needs to not get in office.

    This is the thing that I really don't understand...
    The people that stay behind to protect are the same ones who move in first, to save.
    Fire Fighters... Police... State Police... National Guardsmen... all of which are employed by either the local, state or federal governments. Other than the Guardsmen... they are also Union.
    ...
    So, what is so bad about them? Sure, they are typically not fighting fires or shooting bad guys... but, they are there when disaster hits... like insurance. There's a reason why I carry insurance... just in case something really, REALLY bad happens to me. I pay my premiums every quarter and nothing happens... good. I means I not trapped in the crumpled wreckage of my car or watching my home burn to the ground. I'm glad i have it and I'm grateful that there are those government professionals out there that will help me if and when the steaming poile of hit hits the fan.

    Just a suggestion... if you are going to support a guy, it's probably a good thing to know stuff about him.

    September 22, 2011 at the Orlando Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.
    ROMNEY: I don't think he knows what he was talking about in that -- in that regard.
    Let me tell you this about our system in Massachusetts: 92 percent of our people were insured before we put our plan in place. Nothing's changed for them. The system is the same. They have private market-based insurance.
    We had 8 percent of our people that weren't insured. And so what we did is we said let's find a way to get them insurance, again, market-based private insurance. We didn't come up with some new government insurance plan.
    Our plan in Massachusetts has some good parts, some bad parts, some things I'd change, some things I like about it. It's different than Obamacare.
    And what you -- what you heard from Herman Cain is one absolutely key point, which is Obamacare intends to put someone between you and your physician. It must be repealed. And if I'm president of the United States, on my first day in office, I will issue an executive order which directs the secretary of health and human services to provide a waiver from Obamacare to all 50 states. That law is bad; it's unconstitutional; it shall not stand.

    The OP said Romney will eliminate healthcare.....wrong....he will repeal and replace it with something better and more fiscal. That is not eliminating healthcare!

    What is this... "something better and more fiscal" you and Mr. Romney speak of?
    It sounds wonderful... and soooo mystical.

    Wait... was that more 'fecal'?
    ...
    No. It was fiscal. I get the two mixed up when Romney is speaking.
    Nevermind.

    if planned parenthood is defunded federally it will be very hard for it to survive solely on state funding..

    Come on, Brian. Don't you believe that we can have affordable access to health care... and it won't cost anything, so we can cut our taxes? I know it sounds like Pixie dust and unicorns farting cotton candy... but, if we really, really believe... Mr. Romney will pull this magical plan out of his ass and make us all better.
