At first I was under the impression that Anthony Burchette doesn't get it. Then after reading his next dozen or so letters over the last couple weeks, it is clear to me that Anthony Burchette really doesn't get it. Then his back-to-back letters really cements the idea that he's for the government running our lives, and the philosophy of Anthony Burchette is that if you disagree with him, you're wrong.
First off, Anthony, I consider myself a "Republic"an (which means I believe in the Republic), and I can guarantee that Rush Limbaugh does not, and will never speak for me. Rush Limbaugh knows how to pander to a specific portion of the populous that have a specific set of views and not necessarily those of all Republicans. Of course, Anthony, you are going to come out and think that I listen to Rush Limbaugh and that I have a giant picture of Rush on my wall. Not even close, because I think Limbaugh is a blowhard blundering idiot who likes to pander to a portion of the population for profit and occasionally likes to hit the Oxycontin; however, he appears to be doing something right because he receives millions of listeners, and makes millions of dollars and he doesn't have to leave his house. So now if we follow the logic that you say, Anthony, the 39 Democrats who voted against the health care legislation were under orders from Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi to make Americans believe that they were actually against the bill - am I right, Anthony?
Speaking of that giant novel that Nancy Pelosi calls health care legislation, Anthony, show me in the Constitution that Congress has the right to nationalize any industry that it wants. Being the all intelligent person that you think you are, you would know that the last time the government tried to nationalize a private industry - the Supreme Court ruled against it (see Youngstown Sheet and Tube Co. v. Sawyer, 343 U.S. 579 (1952)).
Now the government is doing the same exact thing by nationalizing the auto industry, the banking industry and now health care. The government wants to spend over 1 trillion dollars over the next 10 years to offer a government-run health insurance. Now, Anthony, I have one question for you. How much are we going to have to spend 30 years from now on this government health insurance?
I am not sure, but I can guess it is going to be a lot more than 1 trillion dollars and that the government will not be able to afford it. You also claim that 86.2 percent of the Canadians you "blogged with" support the government's health care in Canada. How many people did you actually talk to, Anthony? If you only talked to 100 people, then that is not a viable statistic to use. The other thing you do not realize, Anthony, is that just because Canada likes their health care that does not mean that Americans will like it also.
Another example of someone who doesn't know what he's talking about - right, Anthony?
