Tom Perriello on SCHIP

[JTylerBallance]

So, two years later, what has Tom done? How many jobs have been lost in the 5th District since 2008?

It's not health care, it's JOBS. If you have a good job, health insurance comes with the package.

You can't ship our manufacturing jobs off to Communist China and expect to have a foundation upon which to build a government to remain here at home. You can't mandate prosperity with more health care legislation. You can't get blood out of a turnip.

Bravo for you Tom! I'm sorry 'therealscl' lost interest in the first minute. I'm sure your children, if any, are not part of the 30,000 that would have been covered. I'm glad someone is fighting for us! Good luck Tom. You had me at, "What can I do for YOU in DC?"  I also watched you nomination speech & was just as impressed. Like you said, they can either step up and decide to make this work, or they can sit back & watch. I watched Goode come out of his HUMMER! That's enough 4 me 2 vote 4 U!

Tom - If people voted - we would have much less partisanship - and healthcare, Iraq, and every other issue could be solved - the reason people don't vote - the two parties.
