Obamacare has not even passed yet and already the administration is demonstrating its intentions. The government-appointed Preventive Services Task Force categorically denounced the use of mammograms before the age of 50 and dismissed self-examinations as useless. Within minutes of the press conference, the medical community and breast cancer survivors erupted.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you our first taste of Obamamerica. Do not let this administration control your health care. Do not let these people set the standards and practices that will regulate what care you get and when. This is a perfect example of what will be our reality if you do not hold Rep. Joe Courtney and Sens. Chris Dodd and Joe Lieberman accountable.
The GOP has a plan that works, without imposing socialism. Let's make our congressional delegation look at plans that will actually save money, provide services and not limit care.
