HEALTH CARE REFORM AND HOW OUR LEGISLATORS HAVE VOTED AND WILL VOTE As I sit here, I can't help but wonder how so many of our US Congress Men and Women can face the people in their districts after voting No this past Saturday for Health Care Reform. I also wonder how they can face themselves by having voted NO for Health Care Reform this past Saturday.

To all to all those who voted yes, I say "Thank You" and I will show my thanks come the next elections. I commend Speaker Pelosi for her leadership and her determination in getting the House bill passed. A special thanks to you, Madam Speaker!

To those who voted no, I have just a few questions. How do you justify the loss of 44,000 lives lost each year due to lack of health care or being under insured? How do you justify that number increasing if we do not get Health Care Reform passed this year? How do you justify 46 million people uninsured and having that number increasing if we do not get health care reform passed this year? My last question to those who voted NO this past Saturday. Will you be willing to give up your Health Care? The health Care you received the very first day of your job, the health care mostly paid by the US taxpayers? Will you be will to go out on your own and try to purchase Health Care without having all the benefits you now get? Somehow, I think I know the answer.

I find it very sad and shameful that so many of our elected officials feel all Americans are not worthy of Health Care as a basic right. I can only hope and pray for those so against health care reform that they will see the light and vote yes and get Health Care Reform passed for all Americans in 2009.
