Redefining Freedom

[faalkon5]

We shouldn't be paying, out of my pocket to some jackass for healthcare. Join the army bitch. Free Health care. lol.

Wow what a convoluted and incorrect definition of freedom. I'm ashamed that this man is my congressman.

@todengine, Debt is a form of slavery thats why our founding fathers left the home land for America...Tim Ryan is the 1st of a new generation of polititions! healthcare reform is a must in this country

for gods sake your an American! Why it's so funny how the rich, and upper class will vote to spend 8,000,000,000 a month in Iraq, which is a ton of money over 7 years, but you wont pitch in an extra 2% to help the less fortunate people, and familys thru rough medical times, and your an American?

if you dont agree with him , come up with some arguments , why you dont want health care reform ? the best helt care system around the world are PUBLIC systems (France ) . the US is on the 37 th place in theThe World Health Organization's ranking . Chile , Dominica. c osta Rica , Canada are doing much better than We ...... We spent too much helath care .... when you get sick you call a doctor or lawyer ?

[Blackrain4xmas]

It's not about healthcare reform (since even Repubs want that), but rather a about the public option. Dems want a socialized pub option, and Repubs want reform where insurers can offer/compete across state lines. What's amazing is that Ryan's got 12-15% unemployment in his district, and towing the party line topic (healthcare) is more important.

If freedom means being healthy, I guess all those that died for our freedom failed us, because until Ryan gave us health care, we weren't really free! Seems like a lot of bloodshed for nothing. If we hadn't revolted in 1776, we would have British health care. Or we could have had German health care in the 1940s. Or we could have welcomed the Soviets in. Anyway, thanks "timmy" for setting me free! I hope the next generation enjoys their financial enslavement along with their new "freedom"!

You suck dude. The next generation can thank your hero Bush for lying us into a war that cost us a trillion dollars and passing tax cuts during a time of war. Why aren't you worried about that?

[twt1972]

I thank God for Congressman Ryan. He is sent from heaven.  I am very proud of him and I'm glad he represents me and my district. I voted for him every time. 5 stars for Congressman Rayn. Health care is a basic human right not a privilege. Give 'em hell timmy, shake and bake.

Government redistribution of wealth is not freedom by any stretch of the imagination. Government forcing people to buy insurance policies that meet the government's approval is not freedom either.

[DowntownYoungstown]

Thank you for all you do for our area Congressman!

[1776ification]

What is really sad is that noone cares about the Constitutional limits of government anymore. Its ok to pass bills that violate the Constitution, we've been doing it for some time now. The Patriot Acts are a great example.

Now we have this bill. A complete violation of the 9th and 10th amendment. But all of you who buy into the right-left arguing b.s. will say, "oh, what do we do? nothing?" Because that is the big Democrat vs. Republican argument.

Its wrong. We will regret this.

[twt1972]

Yeah yeah, boo-hoo.

[teamgh0ul]

bravo!

Thank You, Tim!
