			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I caught just a little bit of tonight&#8217;s <strong>Democratic Debate in Austin</strong>on CNN. I had forgotten about it until I was channel surfing and ran across it. My first reaction was to change the channel as quickly as possible before I became ill, but I saw <a href="http://www.dirtfromtexas.com/dear-hillary-people-dont-like-you/" title="hillary clinton">Hillary Clinton</a> opening her trap about her <strong>Universal Health Care</strong> and I had to stop.</p>
<p>Here it is 15 years after she first proposed <strong>Universal health care</strong> and she&#8217;s serving up the same old regurgitated crap. The only difference between this time and 1993 is that there are some people lapping it up.</p>
<p>Have you really sit down and listened to either of these Democratic Candidates discuss &#8220;their&#8221; plan for <strong>Universal health care</strong>? It&#8217;s freakin&#8217; scared the hell out of me!</p>
<p>Hillary basically said tonight that it will be mandatory for you to carry health insurance or face fines. You&#8217;ll also be responsible to make sure your kids have Insurance. She said it would do no good to make the program voluntary as people wouldn&#8217;t pay into it. Hillary went on to say that it had to be mandatory like Social Security.</p>
<p>Do you understand what this means?</p>
<p>Under <strong>Hillary&#8217;s universal health care plan</strong>, and probably Osama Obama&#8217;s also, they are going to withhold money from our paychecks to pay for this damn universal health care. That means you and I will be paying for health care for every freakin&#8217; illegal alien&#8217;s health care, every &#8216;sit on their ass while they watch TV and make kids&#8217; welfare recipient and every Tom, Dick and Harry who think they&#8217;re too good to work. And it will come out of your paycheck just like Social Security and Taxes!</p>
<p>You won&#8217;t have a choice in the matter if they get their way. You&#8217;ll pay it whether you like it or not.</p>
<p><strong>Do you know why they do it this way</strong>? Because after awhile, people will forget about it being deducted out of their paychecks.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m self employed. I pay my taxes quarterly and I have to write one big check every quarter. That money comes directly out of my bank account.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve always said that if everyone had to pay taxes directly out of their bank account, there would be a Revolution so damn quick your head would spin. People wouldn&#8217;t stand for it.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s one thing for you to look at your paycheck and see that they withheld $10,000 dollars. But when you have to write a check every quarter for several thousand dollars, then it smarts and it really sinks in all the money you&#8217;re sending Uncle Sam! By the way, self employed people pay more taxes than those of you working for a paycheck. It&#8217;s just another expense of working for your self!</p>
<p>But the people who set up the tax system were smart. They knew they had to make it mandatory or people wouldn&#8217;t pay taxes. They knew also they had to do it before the people received their paychecks or their would be hell to pay. So they deduct taxes and a bunch of other crap out of your check before you get it and no one pays any attention to it. It&#8217;s gone before you ever get paid and the average Schmo doesn&#8217;t give a crap because he never had that money to start with.</p>
<p>This is how this <strong>Universal Health Care</strong> system under the Democrats will work! They believe once it&#8217;s implemented and it&#8217;s coming out of your check before you get paid, you won&#8217;t raise hell about it. And they&#8217;re right!</p>
<p>I also thought that <strong>Hillary Clinton</strong>&#8216;s state about George Bush&#8217;s &#8220;<em>wasted tax breaks</em>&#8221; was interesting. Okay, those tax breaks weren&#8217;t huge, but my Family got them and I bet yours did too&#8230;that is unless your those who pay no taxes to begin with&#8230; such as low income Families.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m about as Middle Class as you can get. Why did <strong>Hillary Clinton</strong> think those tax breaks were wasted? Because it didn&#8217;t put money into the pockets of those who didn&#8217;t earn them to begin with?</p>
<p>This is the same ole Class envy bullshit Hillary and the Democrats have been pushing for decades. The same ole wealth distribution that keeps these poverty pimps in power. By the way, Wealth Distribution under any name is still Communism.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know about you, perhaps you have all the money you need and can spare more to pay for illegal aliens, lazy welfare recipients and those who game the system to have better health care insurance and other things than your Family does. Not me. Call me selfish, I want to keep my money to provide nice things for my Family. I&#8217;m betting you do to.</p>
<p>Sorry <strong>Hillary Clinton</strong> and Obama, but we just can&#8217;t afford your <strong>Universal Health Care</strong>, we couldn&#8217;t afford it in 1993 and we can&#8217;t afford it now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I knew that <strong>Hillary&#8217;s Presidential campaign</strong> was in big trouble, but I didn&#8217;t realize how much trouble her campaign was in until hubby <strong>Bill Clinton</strong> made a campaign stop in <strong>Houston</strong> tonight.</p>
<p>There was no shortage of media coverage prior to <strong>Bill Clinton&#8217;s</strong> campaign speech, however once Clinton showed up, over an hour and half late, the 8000 seat U of H facility looked deserted. Conservative estimates put the number of attendees to Bill Clinton&#8217;s campaign stop at around 2000 but if you watch the short news clip, there&#8217;s hardly anyone in the seats. It&#8217;s also a helluva lot less than the 17,000 that showed up at the Barak &#8220;Osama&#8221; Bama speech Tuesday night at the Toyota Center.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t know what this means, I&#8217;ll tell you. It means Hillary is in bigger trouble here in Texas than what the News media is telling us.</p>
<p>When was the last time <strong>Bill Clinton</strong> visited a liberal campus like the U of H and only 2000 people show up?</p>
<p>I agree with a lot of other people who say Bill Clinton&#8217;s hurt Hillary&#8217;s &#8217;08 Campaign as much as he&#8217;s helped it. He has helped remind many people what two faced, underhanded and dishonest people they are. Thanks Bill&#8230;however some of us have never forgot!</p>
<p>And why didn&#8217;t the boss herself show up? Well, you see, since the Clinton&#8217;s have loss support of many liberals, both White and Blacks, they&#8217;ve had to turn to the other minority (figuratively, not literally here in Texas) and that&#8217;s the Hispanic vote.</p>
<p>The Clinton&#8217;s may be down, but they&#8217;re not out. They know if they can get the Hispanics out to vote for them in force, then they&#8217;ll win the State.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why Hillary didn&#8217;t spend any time in Houston campaigning. You would have thought she would have with the number of Democrats and minorities here, not to mention the big donors, but she&#8217;s trying to win over the Hispanic vote down on the Border with stops in Brownsville, Hidalgo and Laredo.</p>
<p>She understands that without them, she&#8217;s finished.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a bet on how long it will be before she, bill or Chelsea speaks Spanish on the campaign trail! I&#8217;ll say that she spoke some Espanola today or at best, a little Spanglish.</p>
<p>Hey, a thought just occurred to me. Remember how Hillary Clinton had that Black Southern accent thing going on when she was down in Georgia and how her accent seemed to change depending on where she was at? I wonder what her Spanish accent will sound like&#8230;that&#8217;s freakin&#8217; hillarioius!</p>
<p>I also bet that she&#8217;s making backroom deals on Border security with the local politicians. I know she sure wound up Houston senator Gallegos. He was kissing her but so much on the <strong>Local Houston news</strong> shows that he&#8217;ll have permanent stretch marks around his lips.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t wait for March 4th to see whether or not <strong>Hillary Clintons &#8217;08 Campaign</strong> can pull off an upset in either Texas or Ohio.</p>
