Fact checking

The health care debate brings out all kinds of people attempting to further their agenda like hese folks [employersforahealthyeconomy.org], who recently, here in Washington, began running ads trying to get you to call your senator and tell them not to pass any health care. The fact the organization is ran by Blair W. Latoff, a ex-republican staffer and ex-staffer for Arlen Specter and finally the Press Secretary for the RNC shouldn't cloud the issue, not.

The reasons, employersforahealthyeconomy.org provided, are that it will cost billions in new taxes, blah, blah, blah. employersforahealthyeconomy.org claims to be for a healthy economy and the author of the site is one Blair W. Latoff. Has anybody done any research on this individual?

Mr. Latoff is an ex congressional staffer that worked for Arlen Specter. Mr. Latoff writes editorials for the Washington Post. First a little bit about the post:

The Washington posts advertises regularly fraudulent claims presented by ADSONAR that the acai berry works and these ads redirect http://www.news7daily.tv/us/us2.php for a pdf of the site.

The domain [news7daily.tv] and images imply without question the site is in fact a news organization and the scammers openly make false claims and these ads are on the Washington Post website; another fake news organization. This has been on the Posts website for a long time and they have not bothered to check the validity of their advertisers so what makes you think they check their editorials and/or stories?

Back to Mr. Latoff,

In essence what you have is a devout Republican, writing for his own agenda, denouncing Health Care reform and the Democratic party and doing this in the News Media, I use the term loosely, that promote scammers trying to rip you off as demonstrated above.

The fact that the Republican John "why don't the republicans replace this clown" Boehner just said in a recent interview, "stop them from passing a bill" and not stop a bad bill from being passed. John Boehner also coined the term "supply side economics" and you might try looking this up and then you might understand that he has absolutely no grasp of economics or John Bainer is simply dishonest; take your pick but I don't want that idiot making choices for me. Who in their right mind would claim that because a company manufactures 100,000 pieces that they will sell them all? That is the basis for supply side economics and the basis for Reganomics.

Please get informed before you cast a vote. Understand that the United States and almost every country bases their economy on the buying power of their people, the general public; yes, this means you. It is your money that is the driving economic force of this country and for most countries because the United States is the largest consumer in the world although China is closing the gap.

Economically speaking, the US has import/export deficits this must be recovered somewhere and that somewhere is your pocket book. Why is it you continue to hear that the US Spending is up in this holiday season and that is an indicator the economy is recovering?

Simply put, it is your money that builds this country and since it is your money shouldn't you demand more for it? Free health care for pregnant women and children until age 18 should be a reality in this country. Children have no say in who their parent is, when, where they are brought into this world and so should not be held accountable for the actions of their parents.

Do I need to mention that this 19 years of preventative medical care would save billions in costs later, level the playing field for all children?
