- Healthcare Reform With Pre-existing Conditions: Wait 6 Months For Insurance?
By: Yamileth Medina | - The Democrats' healthcare reform bill has been touted as the solution for Americans with pre-existing conditions that make them "uninsurable" in the eyes of private health insurance companies. Normally, underwriters for health insurance plans consider consumers with serious health problems as too high a risk to take on; they profit by collecting premiums while paying as few claims as possible. This has put much of our population in a quandary and helped fuel our current health care crisis. Indee ...

- Differences Between The Republican And Democratic Healthcare Reform Bills
By: Yamileth Medina | - The Republican Party has spent the past several months serving as vocal opposition to the healthcare reform bills supported by the Barack Obama administration and Democratic members of Congress. During that time, they have seen success in influencing public opinion. However, many were frustrated that Republicans hadn't offered their own plan. Surely they didn't believe that the health insurance system in the U.S. is perfect the way it is? Well, the wait is over. Senate Minority Leader John Boehn ...

- Will Healthcare Reform Cost Democrats Congress?
By: Yamileth Medina | - The Democratic party has made comprehensive healthcare reform its top priority this year. A majority of Democrats in the House of Representatives are backing Speaker Nancy Pelosi's proposal. One of its provisions is the creation of a government-run insurance plan, otherwise known as a public option, to compete with private insurers. A similar program is included in the Senate's reform bill. While the public option is supported by liberal Democrats, some conservative Democrats have concerns. Amon ...

- Three Bills In Congress Supporting Health Freedom
By: Joni Bell | - Legislation in Washington, D.C. impacts all of us in our desire to use dietary supplements for health maintenance. This legislative update includes potential good news in that there are three bills currently in the House of Representatives which are trying to support our freedom to choose natural substances for the care of our health.
Let's take a look at the three bills starting with The Health Freedom Act. This bill removes FDA's power of prior restraint over all nutrient-diseas ... Tags: health freedom, supporting health freedom, congress supporting health, health freedom act
- How To Create A Fairer Tax Environment
By: Steve Selengut | - Can lawmakers who don't have the courage or intelligence to outlaw texting while driving really be expected to create a saner tax structure? Hmmm.
Developing a fairer tax environment is much less an economics problem than it is a political dilemma and, as many of you observed, it is unlikely that anything "tax" will be improved upon until there is some serious facial (and cultural) change in Washington.
Politicians focus on one issue at a time, and pretend to have p ... Tags: social security, reform, tax code, IRC, Inernal Revenue, IRS, congress, federal income taxes, business taxes
- How To Create More Jobs America
By: Steve Selengut | - My recent survey produced a variety of ideas, but most of them had these common elements: replace the Internal Revenue Code with a simpler model, encourage businesses to increase employment, and insist upon tort reform everywhere.
It also brought two disturbing realities into focus: We are painfully apathetic (less than 1% of the people I contacted took the time to respond) and, although we have great problem-solving ideas, few to none of them are included in any of the reforms b ...

- Is Socialism Knocking On Your Door?
By: Paul Sidelinger | - So you voted for Barack Obama thinking he will change the world, end the Iraq war, etc?
Yeah, he sure will change the world. He's already spent more money than any president in American history (as if our government spending wasn't high enough) on bailing out all the sorry excuses for corporations that can't manage their way out of grade school.
He's also trying to limit what CEO's can make at the companies that accepted the bailout money, demanding the AIG bo ... Tags: Obama, politics, gun rights, congress, socialism, society, second amendment
- What Ever Happened To Dignity: The Itching Of America
By: Rev Michael Bresciani | - Depending on who is breaking down the list the news is reporting between 30 and 50 distinctive sexual behaviors that are to be protected under the newly proposed Hate Crimes Bill H.R. 1913. Have we gone from the moral majority to the immoral majority all in about a mere thirty years? What Happened?
One of the definitions for prurient is an itching which is to say that anyone who is constantly aroused by some new and shifting sexual interest has got an itch. As a nation it w ...

- Obama's Hundred Days
By: Nate Gillespie | - April 29 isn't a date that would normally stand out on the calendar. This year it falls on a Wednesday, almost but not quite marking the end of the month. We suspect that most years, April 29 would slip by without most of us taking any particular notice of it.
But this year, perhaps for the only time ever, April 29 will be received with great fanfare. This year, April 29 will have its day in the sun, temporarily rivaling more famous dates like July 4 or October 31. Why? Because this ...

By: dr weeks | - Insurance company AIG received $170 billion federal bailout money and now they intend to pay out $160 million in bonuses. Edward Liddy, AIG chairman, claims these bonuses are necessary to attract and retain the best and brightest. This would lead one to question why the company needed a bailout if the best and brightest were in control. If they dont get a bonus isnt it possible they would go to another company that gives bonuses and improve that companys performanc ... Tags: AIG, Liddy, bailout, bonuses, Congress
- Health Care Belongs At Home - Not In The Halls Of Congress!
By: Teo Graca | - It's amazing to me how so many Americans have allowed themselves to be duped by politicians who claim they can provide health care for them. Do Americans not understand that their health is their individual responsibility? Do Americans understand so little about good health that they think it can be provided by a politician, or a health insurance company, or a doctor, or worse from taking a pill?
A politician with promises is only buying your vote. It gets worse, politicians w ... Tags: Health Care Belongs At Home, Halls of Congress, TheHealthCareFix.com

By: Rev Michael Bresciani | - President Obamas stimulus bill promises to keep us fully distracted, delighted and going places like back to the moon and shuttling blithely between the biggest money sucking hole in America, and the biggest fantasy diversion in the world. Now we can ride on the new magnetically driven monorail proposed between Las Vegas and Disneyworld. Cost for the American tax payer, twelve billion dollars. Cost for having fun in America, priceless.

- Lets Talk Medicare
By: 19thholegolfstore | - We recently had a big scare when we thought Medicare payments to Doctors and Hospitals would be cut. It didnt happen this time, but what can we do to make sure it doesnt happen next time?
First, we have to keep Medicare in place. Our senior citizens, of which I am one, have spent all of their years planning, on the Governments promise, that Medicare will be in place when they reach sixty-five. Our health care planning is all predicated on having Medicare cover our basi ... Tags: Congress, Medicare

- South Congress Avenue "€" New Name Soco!
By: Curtis Reddehase | - Only a few years ago Austins South Congress was a not a popular area. In fact it was deemed a bit seedy! The businesses that only existed there had been in a slump and some of the hotels actually rented rooms by the hour. Some headlines even came out about some state officials getting caught in police stings, but those days appear to be long gone. Those hotels that once rented rooms by the hour are now renting to high level corporate types and even celebrities. The South Congress Avenue area ...

- South Congress Is Now Soco
By: Curtis Reddehase | - Not long ago, Austin's vibrant, creative and hip neighborhood known as SoCo was a little sleazy, a place where businesses had slumped and a couple of motels rented rooms by the hour. Now those restored South Congress motels are likely to be renting rooms to high tech execs and movie stars.
The broad avenue is lined with apartments, condos, lofts, plus boutiques, funky-fun stores, restaurants, neighborhood bars and coffee shops. A few longtime businesses survived South Congress ... Tags: Austin, tx, south congress, soco, condo, restaurants, coffee, continental club, Julia Roberts

Home Slice has often been rated "Austin's Best Pizza" by the Austin Chronicle, and the title is well-deserved. This restaurant, which sells "New York style pizza," is as close to authentic as you can get in Austin. (Individual slices are served on paper plates and the menu even includes directions on how to fold your slice like a real New Yorke ...

One of the most popular destinations is First Thursdays on South Congress Avenue where once a month the shops stay open late and the entire street becomes a pedestrian friendly party that the whole family can enjoy. The South Congress Area (or SoCo as it is now called) has long had a reputation for its eclectic shops, art galleries, and restaurants. On First Thursday, eve ...

By: Stephanie Vance | - The legislative process has been compared to the process of making sausage: while some may find the final product palatable, you don't really want to see how it's made. However, I've recently come to a profound and somewhat startling realization. Forget Sausage. Think Thanksgiving Dinner.

By: Jack Deal | - U.S. Congressman Tom Tancredo made the statement today that all of the country of Mexico is a drug cartel. I wished he would have emailed me before he made that statement and wish also he would lay off the sinsemilla. It has to be affecting his judgment as evidenced by his making a goofy statement like that.
Had he only contacted me I would have told him that my mother-in-law and sister-in-law aren't involved with El Chapo, Los Hermanos Arrellano Felix or La Reyna Del Pacifico ... Tags: Congress, Congressman, Tancredo, Drug Cartels, sinsemilla, bong, Jehovah's Witness, beer, mota, Mexico, Mexico
- A Job Description For Congress
By: Stephanie Vance | - Recent polls show that Americans aren't at all impressed with our U.S. Congress. Really. I know you're shocked to hear it, but it's true. In fact, a recent AP poll shows that 73% of Americans disapprove of the job Congress is doing, while only 22% approve. These are the lowest numbers in decades. Oh, and in case you're wondering if the question was "leading", it wasn't. Here is specifically what people were asked:

My husband, who went with me for the sole purpose of ensuring I wasn't mugged once in possession of said book, was extremely embarrassed. He made it clear to anyone who would listen that he was not there of his own free will. I guess he was under the Imperius curse (Potter fans, you know what I mean.)

In the midst of three days of fun, frivolity and fantabulous jazz I, of course, got to thinking about advocacy. I mean, wouldn't you?

By: Rev Michael Bresciani | - Thursday May 3, 2007 was recognized as America's national day of prayer. Even as Christians gathered to petition God for many things, members of congress met to debate and finally vote on hate crimes bill HR 1592.

- Avoiding The "don't They Knows": Effective Advocacy Messages
By: Stephanie Vance | - I spent about an hour this morning shifting through my usual bewildering array of junk mail, e-mail spam and other random communications. I'm not looking for sympathy here: I know you deal with the same problem.
But in those "other" cases it often seems, believe it or not, like the companies bombarding me with missives don't know much about me or my business. They send a bunch of irrelevant stuff that just has no meaning to me. Then, I have to sort through it all and throw it away ... Tags: Congress, government, advocacy, politics, citizens, lobbying

But are these sites really helping citizens connect with their elected officials in a meaningful way? Has the Internet really led us to the brink of direct democracy?

If the Republican Party is able to hold onto its majority in both the House and the Senate in the coming elections, it will be because of the ineptness of the Democrats.
