One of the favorite one-liners from the democrats and liberals is “Healthcare is a right!” I’m sorry but it inherently cannot be a right.
For something to be a right, it must be free and cost nothing to have. For example, the right to free speech costs nothing to exercise. Well, actually, there are form you fill out and probably a permit fee but the actual cost is very minimal and usually covers administrative costs. The right to face your accuser does not cost you, the state, or even the accuser anything except time.
I could go on and on but these two examples will suffice.
To say that healthcare is a right is like saying having a TV is a right. The government doesn’t buy everyone a TV simply because they have the right to a free press. Healthcare not only costs money but requires people with specific skills. These skills are learned over several years. That education is not free.

As the health care debate continues, your representative is cowering in fear because there are people who vocally disagree with them. Protests and angry mobs have a time and place. For example, if you’re being refused entrance to your representative’s town hall by union thugs, this is cause for protest and anger. If your representative is only answering “soft-ball” questions that seem to be pre-selected, this is cause for protest and anger. If you see someone being beaten up by counter-protesters, this is cause for more protest, anger, and even violence.

All over America, concerned citizens are showing up at Town Hall meetings and showing their disapproval of their elected lawmakers. Many of them are switching venues so they can hide behind “human shields” to avoid these citizens. Nancy Pelosi even pulled the “Nazi Card” by claiming she saw “swastikas” at these Town Hall meetings.
The White House wants people to report “disinformation” to flag@whitehouse.com. Barack Obama has even said he doesn’t want people who disagree with him to “do a whole lot of talking“.
This is nothing short of a desperate “President” trying to scare his critics into backing down. But, hey, if he wants to get a whole bunch of e-mails, that’s his business. I think We the People should report our neighbors for spreading disinformation. And I say we start with the Obama supporters.
No doubt that this community activist has enlisted a large army of kool-aid drinkers into doing his bidding. To level the playing field, we should do the same. In the next week, I’ll be debuting a website where fellow conservatives can report Obama supporters. Upload pictures of their bumper stickers (including license plates). Use the Freedom of Information Act in your state to obtain their address, phone number, and any other identifying information. That information will be publicly displayed for people to see.
Unlike the White House, this list will not be illegal since the information is publicly available. What people decide to do with the information is not up for the state to decide.
Once I have the website up and running, I’ll make another announcement on this site and on Twitter.
