There have been reports that President Obama agreed to release federal water reserves in California to the farmers who have been fighting a drought after the EPA stopped their water to protect a fish. Now after 2 Congressmen agreed to switch their vote on Health Care from no to yes. There are some who say he was saving the water as a bargaining chip in the future. The farmers have already lost their crop because a fish was more important than people eating. Now Passing a bill that the President wants but not the American People is more important that the fish.

He tells us that the Health Care Bill will give us all quality Health Care but will he sell out your health for a vote on another bill?

Yes, the water was shut off/the pumps stopped to protect an endangered smelt, under the Endangered Species Act. Under the National Environmental Policy Act, they needed an Environmental Impact Statement before the water was to be turned back on, if it was to ever be turned back on. The only way you can wave an EIS is to declare a National Emergency (to my understanding). Obama must have declared health-care reform a National Emergency? What a bunch of bull!

Well, his scheme will not give us quality healthcare... we already have among the best healthcare in the world.

It will destroy our healthcare, the prices will go up and the quality will go down.... and I will be laughing at all of the 0bama supporting morons when they can;t get healthcare because of it.

When the AP starts making these kind of reports, you know things are getting bad.

They were very careful not to call him a liar or that he was giving out misinformation. It is a scathing rebuke of him and his methods.
