What do you say about a President who is obsessed with nationalizing the health system, destroying privately run insurance companies….that is quite an obsession for a junior senator from chicago…..putting the Presidency in the hands of Barack Hussein Obama is like putting a 747 in the hands of a guy who has just landed from his first solo in a Cessna….

The health bill is totally unnecessary from the stand point of health…it is purely political…

Demint is held in high regard in this area and lauded for these comments. I'm just able to shake my head in disbelief. I am surrounded by this type of thinking here in GA. To protect my own sanity, I just keep telling myself that I am not alone. But some days I wonder. I live in Savannah, GA and come across this type of conservatism (sadly) quite often.
