Sometimes I Feel Like a Piece of Bologna

It’s a Sad Day for America

Well, they did it. Lawmakers in DC, paying no mind to the will of the American people, narrowly passed legislation to take over one sixth of the American economy and the heath care of every American. Despite the Democrats’ claims of bipartisanship, it was a Democrat bill all the way, filled with high costs, mandates, limits on our freedom, and a budget-breaking price tag.

What will this mean to you and me? It’s too soon to tell, but we can expect doctors to quit their practices, wait times to increase, and rationing to occur. Our parents will suffer, we will probably suffer more as the bill is implemented and the rationing panels are implemented, and our kids will not only receive less care, but also enjoy less prosperous lifestyles as they pay for this and whatever else this administration has in mind for us.

Let’s keep the faith. Let’s pray. Let’s continue to follow the American way. Let’s continue to teach our children this history of this nation. Let’s not get sucked into the entitlement mentality. This America and it isn’t over yet. Consider these words from Congressman Mike Pence:

“Such a blow to freedom can either discourage us to the point of retreat, or motivate us to greater action. Victory may not be ours on this day – but there is another day. As for me, I have not yet begun to fight…. As John Quincy Adams said, “Duty is ours; results are God’s” – now, let us continue to do our duty.”
