What's the rush on health care reform?

What's the rush?

Even though the U.S. Senate has told President Barack Obama that there is no way health care reform will be passed before the August recess, he continues to harangue the Congress and complain that it is taking too long.

This alone should make Americans fear his objective.

We should ask why he wants the Congress to push through a massive reform bill that will dramatically affect every American without giving lawmakers and Americans the opportunity to read, analyze and debate the merits of his plan.

The only answer has to be that he realizes if Americans actually have the opportunity to study the plan and debate its merits, it will never pass because it is, essentially, a government takeover of the health insurance industry. Without actually using the term, it is a single-payer health care system, something the vast majority of Americans have rejected for years.

If you don't fear the Obama administration, you are either not paying attention or you do not love liberty.

P.S. How much longer can Obama continue to blame his problems on the previous administration? On Wednesday, he blamed the previous administration for his record-breaking deficit. Will this continue over the next four years or will there come a time when he stops passing the buck?
