Dennis Moore To Appear Monday September 20

Want to see the elusive Dennis Moore? Maybe try to ask a health care question?

According to the Kansas City Kansas

"U.S. Rep. Dennis Moore (D-KS) will help present World War II veteran Raymond Schrader with the French Legion of Honor award, the highest distinction France bestows upon those who served in battles.

Moore, along with French Liaison Officer Col. Jean-Claude Brejot and Brigadier Gen. Alex Duckworth, will make the presentation next Monday at the Kansas National Guard Armory at 100 S. 20th St. in KCK."

How About A Real Competitive Solution?

Prez Obama stated in his health care/insurance reform speech he wants a public option that competes with private insurers. He said the "public" plan would have to be non-deficit producing, just work on its own.

Now I agree with the idea of competition ... except the government is not and should not be a business (how is gm and Chrysler working out?).

The key to decreasing medical costs is allowing MORE competion. Allow insurers to compete across state lines ... encourage the insurers to be more creative. Also, create a template that allows indiduals to purchase health care directly from medical professionals. This can be combined with their insurance.

People need to see the actual cost that insurance is covering. I know they get statements mailed to them. But we should see the costs upfront ... and be able to find the "deal" that we like.

Medicare is a single payer system, and the SERVICE works. The economics do not. Medicare has trilllions in unfunded liabilities over time. Because Medicare does not cover the actual costs of medical service, the private sector, the medical community, needs to charge more to make up for the losses Medicare creates.

And what about the pharmaceutical industry? What are these cost savings agreements that the white house has negotiated? Are they secret?

Obama is right about the problem of increasing medical costs and insurance.

He should use his intelligence and charm to encourage the private sector to develop a range of cost-effective, competitive solutions.

Drudge ... Now 44 Dems Not For HR 3200, Moore SILENT

Borrowing from the Drudgereport (its a must read at www.drudgereport.com), now 44 "more moderate" ... read that scared of reelection, are now against the massive government health control bill known as HR3200.

WHIP COUNT: DEMS LACK THE VOTES
Wed Sep 09 2009 17:03:37 ET

At least 44 more moderate Members of the Democrat Caucus have gone on the record in opposition to the current health care bill in the House, a Hill source claims. Likewise, at least 57 liberal Members of the Democrat Caucus have gone on the record saying they will vote against a health care bill without a strong public option.

Unless multiple Democrats flip on their stated position on health care, Speaker Pelosi lacks the votes to pass a bill through the House on the strength of Democrat votes alone.

23 House Dems To Vote No On Socialized Health, Moore Still Refuses To Talk

23 scared dems have reported they would vote no on a health care plan with the public (private sector busting) option. See:

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/57565-already-23-dems-have-said-they-will-vote-no-on-reform

Ole Dennis keeps playing the guitar and attending spelling bee awards. Good job Dennis, a true man of pelosi ... I mean the people.

There is no reason to believe these dems will stick to their decision. If pelosi needs their votes, she will get them the chicago way ... she will pay them off ... with money for projects or future consulting/lobbying jobs.

The dem congress has already shown that their constituents are in the way, an unnecessary and unneeded impediment to a far left agenda. If only she could deny seniors health treatment NOW ... maybe they would shut up die off and.
