Sen. Cornyn at GOP Health Care Press Conference

[buddy34]

11/26/09

Rasmussen reported that only 38% of voters support the healthcare bill proposed by Obama and Democrats in Congress. That is the lowest level of support for the bill after almost two dozen polls conducted since this summer. Half of the survey had been conducted before the motion to proceed on Obamacare in the Senate on Saturday evening. Rasmussen reported that support for the plan was even lower after the Senate vote passed.

"i voted for the bill before i voted against it"how did that work last time.the senators who voted for this massive government power grab will answer to the voters.gallup oct 2009 america conservative 40% independent 38% liberal 20%.obama 49% approval.73 %against government run HC.good luck in 2010 you are going to need it

John Cornyn will not be reelected in Texas.

Texas became the 2nd state in the union in which minorities have become the majority & Cornyn has consistently voted against their wishes.

The Hispanic community was extremely excited about Sotomayor & Cornyn voted agst her & now he opposes a Public Option which most in the state favor.

Barack carried Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso - as our state turns blue.

CORNYN WILL BE GONE WHEN HE RUNS THE NEXT TIME.

[exweez]

are you the same dillonx who predicted democrat landslides in virginia and NJ. LOL the progressive experiment is over.

[chgoyette]

DillonX, this is an example of what happens when a constitutional republic such as ours turns into a pure democracy by virtue of our elected officials voting against their sworn alliance to the US Constitution.

A federal law mandating healthcare to the individual states is unconstitutional period. We the People have unalienable rights which overrule the majority rule mentality.

I wonder if you understand the significance of this statement?

Our government is suppose to protect not provide!

[BigfootWRL]

I highly doubt it. You want cradle to grave government control of you life, then move somewhere else. I will not. I am going to stay and fight this unconstitutional take over.

[RideWitChrist]

I rather see Ron Paul run for it and besides liberals always have a good way of getting us out of things, by spending and creating more wars like the afghanistan war,.

[infodirts]

This senator does not represent Texas!

The best interest of the American people is to pass Health care reform!

About 40,000 American people die every year because they lack health insurance. Texas has the highest rate of uninsured Americans.

"Kill the Bill" rhetoric is inappropriate and offensive.

[exweez]

yeah texans want the government running their lives.i just drove by my local hospital and didn't see a single person laying on the lawn dying.

[infodirts]

Health care reform is not a government take-over. People with private health insurance can keep on having their insurance. Health care reform is for people WITHOUT health insurance. It is completely immoral when people with insurance want to deny other less well off people any insurance.

Don't you get it!

40,000 Americans die every year because they lack health insurance. This is worst than the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war combined.

[BigfootWRL]

I have no insurance and I do not want this bill to pass. It's not about those that have insurance wanting those to not have it. It's about freedom to live our lives as we wish. The information you provided is just pure scare tactic. You want to live under government control of your body, then move elsewhere.

[infodirts]

"government control of your body"

Tell me exactly how the government will control your body, its a complete LIE.

Again let me say that this is an OPTION. What does the word option mean to republicans? Option means that people who wish not to partake in the program can stay out. Those that want to benefit can also have that OPTION.

Words such as "government control," "takeover" "death panels" are nonsense words that incite fear and plays into the subconscious of people who are misinformed.

[infodirts]

Healthcare reform is an investment in the American people.

Do you know who doesn't want health care to pass?

1) Greedy corporations

2) And people who are influenced by the corporations agenda.

[RideWitChrist]

It's all in the bill man read it, i have the 1000 and sumpin page bill it has in it if you dont get a 15,000 insuranc epolicy you will get thrown in jail now go and read it you liberal piece of crap. Thats your option

[infodirts]

You have the bill, tell me exactly where you will go to jail...

[DustyWiyrick]

Great stuff kill the bill is right! And the turn and walk away tolal hands off my AMERICAN health-care system. Got it? I SAID HANDS OFF HEALTH CARE... OATH-BREAKERS your vote counts ,KILL THE BILL.

[scaserta11]

Hopefully people listen

[buddy34]

Thank you, Senator Cornyn!!!

[bloodironfire]

It's to bad that you can't just say the bill is BS and voting for it is act of war on the american working persons walet.

[1Tarz]
