AN OPEN LETTER TO A CLOSED MIND

OPEN LETTER TO GERALDO RIVERA

I heard you say on your radio show today that you hope obama succeeds in fixing the obamacare website because if he succeeds we all benefit  REALLY?  You think taking away my freedom to decide for myself whether I want to have health insurance, what coverage I want, from whom I wish to purchase it, is something that is good and you want obama to succeed in doing that?  The fact that the website isn't working is not what is bad about obamacare, it's what is good about it.

Whom else are you rooting to succeed?  UNDERWORLD HIT MEN? They also want to take away someone's freedom.

You said  "of course, people who have cancer should get treatment even if they can't afford it".  Well, in a free society. you are free to donate to a charity to help them, but you are not free to FORCE me to do so.  Do you know the relationship between freedom and force.  THEY ARE DEADLY ENEMIES.

(What else is on your should get treatment list.  If someone is dying from heart disease, tuberculosis, malaria, emphysema , blood clots?  And what about those who can't afford food, clothes, a place to sleep, education, transportation? Should they be treated with money?  Just wondering.)

Oh, yes, soon your freedom to give charity will also be taken away.  A new law being proposed would make it illegal to donate money to any charity for any reason.  The reasoning is that the government is better able to take care of needy people and that private charities undermine the authority of the government.  THE PENALTY FOR GIVING CHARITY WILL BE A FINE EQUAL TO TEN TIMES  THE AMOUNT GIVEN TO CHARITY FOR THE FIRST OFFENSE, AND JAIL TIME FOR EACH SUBSEQUENT OFFENSE EQUAL TO ONE YEAR FOR EACH $100 DONATED.  I am going to assume you hope the president is successful in getting obamacharitycare passed.

Oh, yes 2.  The president is concerned about some people not being able to have children and is trying to get a bill passed that would limit us to having two children.  Under the bill, if you now have more than two children, your excess children will be taken away from you and given to those less fortunates who are childless.  The government will choose which ones you will lose.  The president thinks that this redistribution of children will help transform America into a happier, more humane society.  I understand you have five children, so I assume you are rooting for Obama to succeed in getting obamakidcare going because if he succeeds, we all succeed...including the kids.

Great show today.
