JANUARY 12th 2010 - THE DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN RESTORING HONOR


House Republicans plan to fulfill a campaign promise and hold a vote next week on repealing the healthcare reform law.
The incoming House majority leader, Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), announced Monday that the vote will take place on Jan. 12, one week after Republicans take control of the House.
Republicans will post the legislation Monday night on the website of the House Rules Committee, in keeping with their pledge to post bills at least 72 hours before they come to the floor for a vote. A procedural vote on the bill will occur Friday, Cantor’s office said.
"Obamacare is a job killer for businesses small and large, and the top priority for House Republicans is going to be to cut spending and grow the economy and jobs,” Cantor spokesman Brad Dayspring said. “Further, ObamaCare failed to lower costs as the president promised that it would and does not allow people to keep the care they currently have if they like it. That is why the House will repeal it next week."
With 242 members, House Republicans should be able to pass the bill easily. There are 12 Democrats returning for the 112th Congress who opposed the healthcare bill last March, but two of them — Reps. Collin Peterson (D-Min.) and Daniel Lipinski (D-Ill.) — told The Hill on Monday that they would not vote to repeal the law.
Meanwhile, Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) is urging his colleagues to offer amendments to the repeal bill that would protect popular elements of the healthcare law, like a ban on insurance companies denying benefits because of pre-existing conditions.
CASE IN POINT:
1.  Obamacare is a job killer for businesses small and large
2. ObamaCare failed to lower costs
3. Obamacare is unconstitutional - tramples state rights
4. Obamacare is against free-interprise the foundation of capitalism

5. Obamacare is provisioned with the death panel - Goes against the right to LIFE, Liberty and pursuit...-
