Our Platform for Outlining Colorado’s Future

In a recent Glen Beck interview Mitt Romney spoke about his Health Care initive, explaining how we are currently on the road to socialized medicine, and how his plan steers us away from a government takeover of health care. You don't have to look far to see the effects of socialism creeping into our health care system. Gov. Rod Blagojevich is moving ahead with a broad expansion of state-subsidized health care even though a legislative oversight panel told him "no" last week. Blagojevich is expanding FamilyCare income eligibility to $82,600 for a family of four to give more people medical coverage. Previously, the income cutoff was $38,202 per year for that same family. On Tuesday, a legislative rule-making panel voted to block Blagojevich's attempt to enact the health-care expansion. But Abby Ottenhoff, a Blagojevich spokeswoman, insisted the panel is not legally empowered to block the governor's actions. "[The panel's] role is merely advisory," Ott...

All Paths to Conservative Health Care seem to lead through Mitt Romney. Though none of the other canidates seem willing to give Romney any praise for innovating the consumer-centered approach, the all seem to have adopted it into their plans. “Credit for starting from a consumer-centered approach goes principally to former Governor Mitt Romney and his administration.”-Edmund F. Haislmaier, Heritage Foundation Fred Thompson " Every American should be able to get health insurance coverage that is affordable, fully accessible, and portable . Coverage should meet their individual needs and put them in control ." "I am committed to a healthcare system that:"" Increases competition and consumer choice while streamlining regulations through free-market solutions that benefit individuals and reduce costs for employers." Rudy Giuliani "The radio ad which begins running in New Hampshire tomorrow emphasizes the need to find free-market solutions that facilita...

Added: July 27, 2007 From: IowaPoliticsDotCom Iowa's premier political news site: http://www.iowapolitics.com Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, a GOP presidential candidate, discusses Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards' savings plan and other differences he has with Democrats at a July 27 gathering in Madison County.

When Ann Coulter was at the CPAC convention earlier this year, she said that "if both major parties' nominees are pro-abortion, we can pretty much hang it up as a country." I think she was right. If we didn't have MR as the pro-life standard bearer, we would be in dire straights right about now. The only (formerly) top tier candidate, John McCain, who is pro-life, fell on his sword for the Immigration bill. The remaining pro-life Republicans are mired at or below 2%. One thing that I think is worth considering is that younger voters in the 18-30 age bracket are dramatically more supportive of politicians who propose policies that respect life in all it's stages. I really feel that those Americans who have labored long and hard to move this country away from the "culture of death" are starting to see the first fruits of their labors. Mitt is right on this issue and as we get into the general election campaign mode, wait until you see the television ads...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=RIoQ6MhhhDQ I have news for you "<a href=" http://youtube.com/user/EmergencyCheese ">EmergencyCheese</a>" people stopped doing the air quotes thing about 5 years ago. Also the people on a stick is kind of an example of the problem with you tube… It's not that our presidential candidates are "too important" to talk to you, but everyone is too important to talk to you. I know you "YouTubers" have found a forum that makes you feel important, but you are not. You tube levels the playing field, so any narcissistic idiot with a camera (myself included) can think they are the center of the universe.   EmergencyCheese says that the snow man asking a question at the last debate is part of the reason that young people are connecting with politics… That is the problem with YouTube. People just make crap up. Are "young people connecting with politics"? What evidence do we have that young people are connect...
