Screw Your Health

A toast heard in several languages since ancient times is "to your health". The Obama "hell care" debacle inverts this old phrase slightly, giving it a brand new meaning. What may be coming out of the mouths of politicians supporting the initiative sounds oh so similar, but if you listen carefully, you hear the distinction. "Screw you- responsible taxpayer." "Screw you senior citizen" who saved the country from Great Depression and the scourge of the Axis but who will now face care rationing and pressure to accept euthanasia, stripping dignity and prematurely ending lives. "Screw you unborn child" and incidentally, make those who revile the idea of abortion subsidize them anyway. All these are your Christmas gifts from your Democratic politicians. Enjoy them now and remember them next November.
