Obama, we don’t want your kind of health care reform. Deal with it!

This is becoming too painful to watch:

On Sunday, President Barack Obama will execute what might be called a Modified Full Ginsburg — appearing on five Sunday morning talk shows to make a pitch for health reform.

It’s a move few politicians have attempted. Even fewer have been able to stick the landing.

The Full Ginsburg, of course, was named for Monica Lewinsky’s lawyer William Ginsburg, who first did the five-fecta of Sunday talk on Feb. 1, 1999. Obama’s move is slightly different – swapping in the Spanish-language network Univision for Fox News Channel.

I knew there was a reason God wanted me to go to church on Sundays, to save me from having to watch any of this. I’ll be sorrow to miss it, though, because it’s human nature to stare at a train wreck as it happens. I mean, we all slow down a little bit to get a peak at that accident weren’t passing on the highway.

So, he’s lectured us a million times. I have a father, that’s not what I’m looking for in a president. I’m done listening. I’m sick of being scolded and told what is my responsibility and what I have to do right now. The sky is falling routine is getting pretty old.

Let me reiterate one more time, people do not have a right to health care. Politicians do not have the constitutional authority to take from me and penalize me in order to give health care to you. It is not my responsibility to provide health care for the children, the elderly, or anybody in between. Period. Stop telling me that it is. There isn’t enough talking in the world that could convince me of this.

Look, for all of you liberals who want to give health care to people who can’t afford it, or simply choose not to carry it, then feel free to create a charity or give your money to a charity that will allow you to do this. If you feel that is your responsibility, then have at it. But, don’t steal from me in order to make yourselves feel better. Because, in the end, that’s what this is really about. It’s not about a plan that will save money and improve health care in America. It’s a plan that makes liberals feel good about themselves and gives them a sense of moral superiority. Get over yourselves!
