I believe that the ad from repealitnow.org is mostly lies. They have took a grain of sand and made it into a mountain. You know that this ad is paid for by the big insurance companies or someone who has invested in the insurance companies. Huckabee has hopes of running for president. I don't think he is really running just collecting money. I don't know if there is some rules somewhere that says that they actually have to use the money to champaign or not.
What Obama and the Democrats has tried to do is a good thing. The Republicans put a lot of crap in the bill and then complained that there was crap in the bill. They have done nothing to help the people of United States to solve our financial problems which they created.
Mike Huckabee says there are 26 states that don't want the Health Care Reform bill. The 26 states are states run by Republican governors. The courts were Republican judges. The ad is one big lie. I think MSNBC should come on and say that this is a false ad.

Some of these states have decided to deny their citizens the benefits of Obama's health care reform. It is a shameful thing to do. But Republicans have no shame. Vote them out of office.
The insurance companies have been collecting money from people to protect them from high medical expenses. But when people apply for these bills to be paid by insurance companies the insurance companies think of lots of reason not to pay them. Then the insurance companies dump them when it becomes clear that they are going to need expensive medical care.
They use many different reason for denying claims. Preexisting condition is one of their favorites reason to deny a claim. I believe they believe being a female is a preexisting condition.
I think one of the reasons that medical expenses have gone up so drastically is that the insurance acts like they have paid part of the cost and the rest is up to the insured. I saw a Anesthesiologist charged someone $8,000 for one operation. The insurance paid less than half and the insured was responsible for the rest. I smell a skunk. It sounds like the insurance company might have been getting a kickback from the Anesthesiologist.
The Doctors and others say their fees are not that high and they barely get by. There is a reason somewhere that prices have gone so sky high that most people can't afford to pay for their own medical costs. A visit at my Dr. cost well over $100 for a visit that is less than 15 minutes. The majority of that charge goes to the people who provide the building.
Republicans lie about everything and don't do anything for the people. They need to get out of the way and let those that want to solve problems do their job.
Mike Huckabee is not on the side of the people. He is part of that Republicans group who works for big business and rich people. When we get rid of Republicans then the government can do the work of the people and not the rich people.
