Are we still living in the USA?

The passage of the "Healthcare Reform" bill on Sunday is the biggest travesty and abuse of power that this country has ever seen. It is wrong on so many levels, and involves so many people, that EVERY CITIZEN of America should be up in arms.

First and foremost, the government now has (?) the authority to force the people of this nation to buy something (health insurance) from the government. What?!?! Ladies and gents, this is in direct violation of the Constitution of our country, the same Constitution that Obama is an expert on, and taught on. The government of this country does not have that authority and is clearly abusing what power they think they have.

Next is Mr. Obama's campaign promise that any bill that comes to his desk will sit there for five days and will be available on line for all citizens to view and read, before he will sign it into law or veto it. The president waited exactly 36 hours to sign this one. So much for integrity.

Obviously I can't speak for everyone, but I'm pretty sure that this country, its people, resoundingly voiced a big fat NO to this bill for many reasons (chief of which is taxpayer funded abortions). Yet the very representatives who are supposed to be speaking for their constituents VOTED FOR THE BILL! Again, this is an abuse of the power given to these men and women. If they don't legislate according to what their voters want, then why do we allow them to continue to sit in these offices?

If you live in WV like I do then you need to know that Rahall and Molohan both voted FOR this bill, despite the overwhelming number of residents of WV who were against it.

I am proud to say that Capito voted against the bill, along with every other Republican in the House.

The time has come, no, is overdue, to vote these people out of office. If they don't speak for us, why should they be speaking at all.

Sorry for the rant.
