Ann Coulter is at it again!

Let me start off by saying that Ann Coulter's heart is in the right place. OK maybe not but she has a point of view about politics as does every average joe. Honestly, she does mean well. I have recently read Ann's article "LIBERAL LIES ABOUT NATIONAL HEALTH CARE: BONUS JOE WILSON EDITION!" on www.anncoulter.com. The article starts off by Ann self promoting a book (of course) and then launches into how the Democrats are lying to us when they speak and the President speaks on the subject of healthcare and how no illegal aliens will receive free benifits. There is of course the mention of Representative Joe Wilson, R-S.C., and how he let everyone know how he feels about what the President had to say. There is also talk of how the illegal aliens who are crossing our borders for the free health care are treated better than the men and women protecting the borders. I must say that I can see how many people took Joe Wilson yelling "You lie" as offensive, (we must show respect for our President) but I also feel that he did right by standing by his beliefs and not letting himself sway in the wind of the political forum. I don't believe that illegals still wont get free healthcare. If everyone wants this to stop, then dont allow the babies born from illegals to be citizens. I know what you are thinking. What an *ss#ole. Well maybe so. I am not saying that if someone is hurt or needs medical attention that they should not receive it, but if you keep giving people things for free they tend to expect it after a while. Some people may think "Why am I paying hundreds of dollars a month for health insurance if I can get it for free like illegals". Ann also points out that even thought we pay for the hospitals with our taxes, we tend to have to suffer and be seen by the doctor sometimes long after illegals get the care they need for free. This stinks. I once had to wait hours when I took my daughter (who was two weeks old at the time) to the emergency room for emergency treatment. I wonder how many of the people were illegal and were seen while my daughter suffered.
