Out Of Order

Did you know the U.S. pays $500 million a day in interest with a billion to bail out banks, which most do not have to pay any money back. Of course, they will not loan out any of the free money. They're too busy paying out big loans.

My wish is that this letter could reach more people so that the politicians that vote for the health care bill that more than 70 percent of Americans are against can be voted out of office.

Obama turned out to be just as bad as Bush was. Congress and Senate members do not want to tell how bad it will be if this health care bill is passed. It will mean higher taxes to middle class and below and, in fact, it will be run such as Canada's health care, which is first-come first-served; and then when the health care budget runs out of money for the year, you would have to get on a list to have your medical needs addressed the next year.

Next, what a shame about the three members of Army that are in jail for killing terrorists. Did you know that terrorists are so-called insurgents when captured are put in a holding jail for a short time only to be set free to kill our brave men and women again? These insurgents are the lowest form of animals. They are full of hate and the need to kill. They should be given a military trail and then taken out and shot in a firing squad. Who in the world would set these policies of engagement?

And last but not least, as our country is up to our eye balls in debt, but we still give billions in foreign aid to countries that would not lift a finger to help us. Tax breaks for companies that set up companies overseas when we need jobs here right now. Foreign aid and immigration should be frozen. We can't even take care of the people in America now.

God bless this country and remember to vote out the ones that would vote for the health care bill. Too bad we don't have more representatives like Sen. Evan Bayh, a man of common sense and honesty. P.S. If a health care bill needs to be passed, let it be the same coverage that Washington politicians have.
