RNC Chairman Michael Steele Discusses the Republican Health Care Bill of Rights on Fox and Friends

“The bottom line is that raiding an already bankrupt program to pay for a program that we can’t afford is not good public policy. And that is exactly what they are doing here with respect to Medicare, number one.  Number two… the reality is that this single payer program know as Medicare is a very good example of what we should not have happened with all our health care. The reality of it is how many times have we been at the trough of bankruptcy and no money for the Medicare program, with congress running around like chickens with their head cut off to trying to fix a program they already mismanaged? So now you want to do that on a larger scale, you want to include all of us? You are talking [about] taking the senior population programs and expanding that program to the entire population? Government cannot run a health care system, they have already shown that. Trust the private market systems to do it the right way.  There are reforms to be put in place, deal specifically with those reforms …”

    Dear Chairman Steele,
    Here is how the Republican Party can win in 2010 and save the soverignty of America. First we need to find candidates for the House and Senate who love our country who are willing to go to Washington for two terms to enact legislation to reverse everything that the Obama Amnistration has implemented. Second. Term limits must become a part of the Republican Party's platform and this time they should follow through with that principle. I don't think the Republican National Committee recognizes the number of Americans who feel so strongly about their country. The RNC needs to go through each state where senatorial terms expire in 2010 and advertise for candidates willing to run for the House and the Senate on the basis mentioned above. These candidates must be willing to put the needs of America first and their own needs second. This sounds almost impossible but I believe people with those beliefs exist and will be willing to run for election on that basis.Unless the RNC is willing to risd itself of the traditional politics as usual the only hope for America retaining its soverignty will be the creation of a Conservative party.

    Why does the RNC president does not show an e-mail address?
    Is it because he just prefers not to bother reading messages of legitimate concern?

    Perhaps it is time for a third Party because the Republicans have been sleeping on the job or voting against the will of the people.

    What about noting in the WebPage the e-mail address?
