Two years ago, when Bethany was born with a serious heart problem, private health insurance wouldn't help her. Without the State Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP), Bethany might not be with us today. Health care for 800,000 children like Bethany costs one week in Iraq. Tell Congress S-CHIP works and to overturn Bush's veto: 1-866-544-7573.

How about this. Remove the insurance companies all together! Prices will have to come down to a reasonable amount so that a person with an average salary can pay for services. S-CHIP will help children, but it helps the insurance companies more.

Indeed, The program was, and still is in effect. The reason for the veto was all extraneous crap the the dems in congress tried to sneak past, not the least of which was the expansion of the program's guidelines to increase the age of those covered to people in their 20's. It's supposed to help insure kids, not adults...

you got worked

S-CHIP wasn't a bad idea at all. The earmarks added to the bill, and the way they wanted to get the funding was, though. Adding a additional tax to tobacco products hurts the majority of tobacco users, which are poor. This will not make them quit either. But yes S-CHIP, without any strings attached would have been great.

This is not a lie, that little girl is my cousin. Before she was in commercials, when she was an infant, my mom got a call from Bo and Dara, they said she was in a serious condition and she had problems with her heart. My whole family was worried about her and now I'm glad shes alive. This is a real girl and a real family that went through this none of it is staged My aunt and uncle want to make a difference and anyone who says they're lying is ignorant and probably selish.

America is a great country and americans are probably great as well. Im glad Bush must leave the White House this year, but I can not bare to see another damn republican in there. I dont care if you put either Hillary or Obama in there, just not a republican... Please...

The Democrats have been playing politics with kids, terrorism, and with the war in Iraq." Are you serious? Do you not realize the Republicans are just as guilty?
