Great comments, Kathryn. And Bravo for Dr Novack for turning down a visit to the White House and taking care of his patients instead of doing the phoney photo-op.

all we need is our fredom, the goverment can provide medical care for all those people that are uninsured , people that are paying health care insurance need help to, but its not an emergency, there is no need to bankrupt our country and no need to run a goverment health care. the economey is bad no jobs people lost their home, and cars , saving, pensions. what is this president thinking, he want to change our whole way of life? I do not agree with his polices. we americans need to stand up and speak up.

From Texas

I have repeatedly called and written my Representatives and Senators regarding this bill; however, only my Representative is against it. The senators (both Democrats) replied with the standard party line. They will not buck the system. All of my doctors have been trying to get through to Congress but they are not listening. I have tried for days on end to reach the Congressional phone # and the line is either busy or all of the operators are busy on other calls. I am at a loss to stop this disaster. I do know one thing - I will work diligently to get any legislator who supports and votes for this bill removed from office in the next election. I hope the majority of Americans needed to accomplish a house cleaning get out and vote. We need people in Washington who are truly dedicated to working for America and not selling their votes to special interests or bowing to political pressure from the administration and majority party leaders.
