Republicans have been most supportive of science. Healthcare reform as currently proposed ala HR-3200 is nothing less than a thinly veiled Democratic effort to utilize a emotionally hyped need as a political weapon (as was done with stem cell research) combined with appeal to crude class warefare to move our nation toward welfare state socialism. As currently proposed and advocated by the administration and left-wing liberal extremist, nationalization of healthcare in America would give the Federal government near total control of healthcare in our nation, the consequence of which would be a real and present danger to the economy of our nation and the future of taxpayers. Republicans have been most supportive of science. It may be that Republicans must wear the label of scientific obstructionism to drive a stake through the heart of this fiscal vampire that goes under the cloak of heathcare reform. So be it. Once upon a time, there were those who called our Founding Fathers rebels. History has seen fit to label them patriots.

Thanks for finding these, Jeff. People are all agog over health care and what we have going on now is the politicization of reform. We need real reform. There is a great article in the Atlantic…sorry no URL. Smart people know what has to be done and how to do it, but our political leaders (both R and D) are so entrenched in dogma that they cannot do what is right. This is in the same league.
