Last night, after a year of arm twisting, back room deals, out in out, bribery and against the overwhelming outcry of the American people, an arrogant House of Representatives approved the Obama Administration's Healthcare Reform bill. When history looks back on that night it will be remembered in infamy. I will not, in this article, review the countless reasons this bill is bad for America. That has already been done, and bemoaning the past does us no good. However, as a man who loves this country and spent his life supporting and defending it, I am sickened. I am witnessing the destruction of the country I love. I never thought I'd live to see this day. Our Constitution, the unique document that separates us from the rest of the world, defends our freedoms and that allowed us to become the greatest country in the history of the world, has been cast down and trampled by the Obama Administration and this Congress. They are transforming this country to Socialism while vilifying Capitalism, the very system that made this country great. At the same time they are bankrupting the nation's economy; not just the Federal Government's, but the States' as well. I fear for our future, our children's future and our children's children's future.
House Minority Leader, John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) delivered an impassioned speech on the floor of the House, last night, prior to the vote. It was one of the finest speeches I have ever heard. It summed up my feelings better than I could hope to. He admonished the Congress for what they have done to their honor, to our Constitution and to our country. Watch it, below.
