This is mainly for all those people out there; who think they are fighting a righteous battle against Health Care Reform. Those who believe that their leaders are so ignoble when they preach about the woes of supporting [Health Care Reform.]

CNN’s...Rick Sanchez, verified his journalistic credentials today...at 3:00:PM. Mr. Sanchez revealed; the who’s paying who, what, to defeat Health-Care-Insurance-Reform.  And if you go to the site referenced by the program; you can see for yourself how much your health care is worth to Senators and House Members in congress.

A link is provided so that all who read this Hub can start thinking for themselves. So that the truly compassionate among us can see that the constant threat offered; on how we are stealing money; from our Children’s future is just a Red Herring that offers cover so members of congress can fatten their bank accounts at the cost of human lives.

If you are sincere in your objections to health care reform that’s one thing but if you are following the party line, then you need to make sure you get your share of the blood money being paid out to pursued you to condemn the lives of people who don’t have health care insurance.

The only people who are stealing our Children's futures are the politicians elected to represent us.

A trip to OpenSecrets.Org; will show that, its not just the health care issue its happening at every level of Bill passage on every important issue before congress.

For the congressmen that take the lobby money donated to their campaigns, and still vote, in the public interest; we should give them our continued support, but to the sell-outs...They should be recalled and prosecuted for their betrayal.

Here is the link that will allow you to see the evidence for your selves:

Once again much credit goes to CNN and Mr. Rick Sanchez for finally exposing this corruption of congress.
