Keep in mind that some states (MS) have closed their programs to new applicants when the fund is out of money. The feds won’t help, and the governor won’t acti, because he says it’s a federal responsibility.
Kids that qualify are left out, even now.

This is my favorite line:

“youâ€™re really beginning to open up an avenue for people to switch from private insurance to the government.â€”

Actually, they aren’t people they are children. And they wouldn’t be switching because they don’t have any now.

I agree that denying health coverage to children is a bad thing.

But I respect that fact that President Bush is willing to credit his refusal to give children health coverage to his governing philosophy.

Elections have consequences.

His philosophy is that America can easily afford tax breaks and almost unlimited defense spending for 2 wars . He expanded the bureaucracy to create the unwieldy DHS and NIA, yet thinks the scope of the federal government should not be expanded in this instance. Why? Because the parents of these children dont’ vote Republican.

Wow. So there isn’t anything tied to this bill like “Bring home the troops in 120 days” or anything? He’s just denying children health coverage? Thats some philosophy. And I thought he was merely incompetent.
