The Blind Eye of Healthcare Opposition

Selective protests show true colors

It's always a War, when it comes to the Rippups.

A War on Drugs, a War on Terror, a War on Christmas... that's how conflicts are supposed to be addressed, according to the Red State doctrine.

Now, it's a War on Health. Let's face it- anybody who thinks that all Americans shouldn't be offered reasonable healthcare, is really waging a battle against America's health.

I do understand how the citizenry can be upset when a President concocts an expensive healthcare plan, and his party majorities in both houses of Congress attempt to steamroll a huge healthcare entitlement through Congress. Surely, some Conservatives think programs like Medicare and Medicaid don’t need to be expanded, …and whenever these kind of bills end up costing the people somewhere around $1.2 trillion over ten years, people have a right to oppose it.

What I don’t understand is why nobody was protesting the President when this happened.

In 2003.

Bush's Medicare prescription drug benefit.

Check it out, Tea Partiers; we’ve been here before, and you thought it was grand.

Why so serious now?
