So many email PSAs today asking to support or oppose SCHIP veto; here's what I told relevant members of Congress:

"The within following next four paragraphs were conceived and drawn by me, and the balance thereafter above my sender data was prepared by the American Conservative Union...I incorporated their text as it amplifies my position on SCHIP.  
 
An email PSA I received today from MoveOn on its face and through its terms tells me that President Bush hates American children...let's examine what say MoveOn must ignore about the all-important, how-can-you-think-about-anything-else-or-quality-thereof SCHIP program to rail at Bush and feed this Hitlerian extermination of business, populations, and such Dems and other truly non-Conservative folks of assorted stripes accuse or tacitly "affirm" Bush and his supporters and troops are committing ( why Bush is bad for going to Iraq and not Darfur....get the joke, ar-ar-ar? Genocide creator and importer and exporter? Why, how could THAT talk alone embolden those killing our troops or undermine even Iraqi alone diplomacy?).

Well, those in MoveOn's club at all times know there's hardly going to be enough money to pay for what the President vetoed; none of those nattering nabobs of negativity even want to talk anymore why they think SCHIP as "improved" will fund tons and tons of USA smokers TO tax; this means you either have to borrow the money or cut all defense and perhaps border, DHS, and police monies while pretending "mean ol' Prez du jour did this or that mumbo jumbo" to explain things getting paid while others get cut.

The other most significant drag on SCHIP recently offered is that prior SCHIP is NOT affected...the SCHIP add-on would be to offer such money to anybody not currently on it, and only proponents could say who they believe beyond present level will soon be needing coverage by the State, or how infinite the SCHIP payments are meant to become. Thus, "mean" child-eater Bush has harmed no one currently on SCHIP with his veto.

The plain fact is, MoveOn and its club of diverse political and social admirers miss that being a child is but one mere phase of a child's existance; Conservatives such as myself simply point out that proposing budgets for needs that don't even exist, or have no real or accurate funding source, or are meant as "offsets" to the futures of children and their families being designed by non-Conservatives to drift into State-run housing, healthcare, gambling, and foodstamps in conscious resistance to free trade or capitalism at all, or combinations thereof, tend to make claims like "Hitler Bush did it!" and "we offer HOPE" seem like anti-democracy, anti-free trade sound byters having their cake and eating it too.

As a civic minded USA national, I urge you to uphold the president's veto of the SCHIP bill.  While claiming to expand the coverage of health care to poor children, this bill actually does the opposite.  It prevents the federal government from asking the states to certify that 95% of poor children are covered before covering other people.   

This bill would allow and even encourage states to cover families who have private insurance and make up to $62,000 per year.  States that have done this and added adults to the program have now run out of money and cannot cover the poor children this program is supposed to help.  How absurd.

I believe the real purpose of this bill is to attract people who already have private insurance and get them to switch to government run health care.  I understand that the Congressional Budget Office has a study that shows that 77% of the children that would be included in the expansion of this program already have personal health insurance.  Whatever the problems with the present system, government run health care is not the solution.

It is clear to me supporters of this bill do not have the interests of poor children at heart, but want to play politics with their health.  If it were otherwise, they would have drafted a bill that put poor children first.  Please don't be a part of this cynical attempt to make a political point.  Vote "NO" on the override of the president's veto of the SCHIP bill.
