And now the truth starts unfolding! Just as the Senate is preparing to vote on the Obama/Pelosi national health care bill, a nationwide announcement is made on (not agreed on) how unnecessary yearly breast exams, mammograms -- those cancer preventive steps women have been cautioned about for years -- are.

Do you think this is coincidental? The quality and availability of America’s health care is already starting to decline! The incidence of breast cancer is much higher than prostate cancer, but was there any mention of cutting back on (or how unwarranted are) yearly prostate exams? Hum-m-m. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand why.

And has there been mention of what will be done (where diverted) with the millions of dollars donated to the American Cancer Society for breast cancer awareness and research? If it’s medically related, I’ll bet my last dollar there is a clause somewhere in that 2,000-page bill that turns control over to the government.

My sister has hypogammaglobulanemia, an extremely compromised immune system. She was recently refused the swine flu shot (even though in a very high risk category) because of her age -- 59 years old. Now isn’t that interesting?

Several hundred years ago, Thomas Jefferson told the nation that a government big enough to give the public everything they wanted was big enough to take everything they had. What words of wisdom!

By the way, those taxes to cover the health care begin immediately, coverage will begin in 2013. If you currently have no health coverage, you get to pay for your health care out of pocket and the health care taxes out of your income -- double health care expenses. Here’s wishing you the best of health!
