I don't care what others say about the program, I know we can do better. If the program at whatever funding level is good enough for you, so be it.
I am catching on to the pretense of the Democratic party and how they "care" about poor people. They can keep their programs designed to entrap the poor into staying poor by adding layers of disincentives to earn income and accumulate assets or to turn them into people who have cheat/game the system.

Wasn't the program passed when Republicans controlled Congress? Funny how people worked together to get something done that many thought originally was not possible. Like I said we can do better, to bad Congress is currently too busy tilting at windmills and calling the President "heartless", "lier", "criminal", etc, etc, etc,etc. There is such a negative tone being set by the party with a core belief in "diplomacy" to get things done.

Once again, you contradict yourself in your haste to vilify Democrats.
As you rightly noted, SCHIP was first enacted under a
Republican House i n 1997 and it will be reauthorized and expanded under a
Republican president in 2007. On both occasions, Repubs and Dems worked together to get it done, which is what you want those in Washington to do (as do I).
But its all a pretense of the Democratic Party and how they "care" about poor people and want to entrap them into staying poor.
Nice try, ace
