I’ve had many people stating that they don’t know where God says Universal healthcare is a freedom, or where it’s mentioned in the constitution, or how it related.

Here’s my view: First off I’m lds / mormon a christian denomination founded by Joseph Smith in 1830.

For all those politicians, business men, republicans, etc who are against Universal Healthcare - I suggest that you are also against the Bible.

Here’s the scriptural support for Universal Healthcare:
Matthew Chapter 25, Verses 34-46
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his aright hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or a thirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

I submit that - to deny someone medical care is to cast them aside and is un-christian.

Christianity has no room for hypocrites and if you do not support Healthcare for all people, then you have no business saying you are a Christian.

There are people suffering with Cancer, Leukemia, Heart Disease, and all manner of common, and rare diseases. Many cannot afford the health care they need, many show up in the ER which costs 10 times more than a normal doctor, and helps raise the overall cost of healthcare across the board.

Write your congressmen, and senators and let them know that they cannot go on being hypocrites and call themselves Christians and expect to be believed if they go on not supporting Universal Healthcare. After all your congressmen and senators have the best health care our Government can afford, of course they may not care about universal health care.

We may have won a huge victory with Obama getting elected as he favors a more universal plan - but the fight isn’t over yet. Keep fighting, and spread the word!

This is a disturbing video…

Apparently there was a Rodney King like beating during the protests by the Gay Community on Calfornia Proposition 8.

As a Mormon, and a minority mormon at that - one who actually is against the proposition I must say that this is indeed disturbing.

do I believe that gayness is right or ethical? No..I don’t.

However - I don’t believe it’s our responsibility to say what people do or believe behind closed doors. I believe marriage is sacred, for me, my family, and those of my faith. Sure excommunicate a member who defies that - but if someone does believe in that practice, then apparently their ‘faith system’ allows it. That could be likened to their religion. It’s what they believe right?

God gave us our free agency to choose, we should have the opportunity to marry anything we want as long as they consent, even if that thing is a plant, or a salad(as Pee Wee Herman did once). Ok, maybe Pee Wee is a bad example.

But it is my strong belief that nothing - is more important than keeping the constitution fair, and unbiased for everyone. Whether you’re black, gay, white, asian, hispanic, straight, mormon, catholic, lutheran, or muslim. You should have equal rights across the board. If one person can marry, then so should another.

Let god decide if the act is wrong, and when he makes that decision then he will also punish it. It doesn’t hurt me if Steve and Tom down the street like each other a little more than they should.

We should not dictate what people can or can’t do. If the term ‘marriage’ is all that’s at the root here, then why not call it something else? Eternal Union, Faith Union, Gay Union, Civil Union, Eternal Partnership, Love Binding, etc…think up something nice and go with it.

Just my two cents - also I’d like to say, don’t blame this on the Mormons, because not all of us believe that everything should be governed. I believe in less government intrusion in the private matters of our life. Yet I believe also in universal healthcare, and the right of all Americans to be able to receive the best care in the world.

If Cher, from Clueless were running for Vice President, it might look something like this….(Sarah Palin Prank Phone Call)

You know - my admiration level goes down for anyone who supports the Republican ticket this year, especially when you support someone this naive.

For instance John Chow is leaning towards the Republican platform over the Democratic one, and I just have to say Why John, Why? I thought you were smarter than that! How is wanting universal healthcare socialist? Aren’t you a Canadian? Don’t you have universal healthcare up there?

This is so hillarious, and show’s how clueless she really is, she doesn’t even realize when she’s being pranked. My gosh, just goes to show any Joe the Plumber, or Marcel the Guy with Bread under his arms, can run for President. Full transcript below the video.

VERY IMPORTANT!! I highly advise you to READ the Transcript as you LISTEN!!

Sarah Palin Prank Phone Call Transcript

Sarah Palin: This is Sarah.

Masked Avengers: Ah, yeah, Gov. Palin.

Palin: Hello.

Avengers: Just hold on for President Sarkozy, one moment.

P: Oh, it’s not him yet, they’re saying. I always do that.

A: Yes, hello, Gov. Palin.

P: Hello, this is Sarah, how are you?

A: Fine, and you? This is Nicolas Sarkozy speaking, how are you?

P: Oh, it’s so good to hear you. Thank you for calling us.

A: Oh, it’s a pleasure.

P: Thank you sir, we have such great respect for you, John McCain and I. We love you and thank you for taking a few minutes to talk to me.

A: I follow your campaigns closely with my special American adviser Johnny Hallyday(Factcheck: actually a french singer / actor), you know?

P: Yes, good.

A: Excellent. Are you confident?

P: Very confident and we’re thankful that polls are showing that the race is tightening and…

A: Well I know very well that the campaign can be exhausting. How do you feel right now, my dear?

P: I feel so good. I feel like we’re in a marathon and at the very end of the marathon you get your second wind and you plow to the finish.

A: You see, I got elected in France because I’m real and you seem to be someone who’s real, as well.

P: Yes, yeah. Nico, we so appreciate this opportunity.

A: You know I see you as a president one day, too.

P: Maybe in eight years.

A: Well, I hope for you. You know, we have a lot in common because personally one of my favourite activities is to hunt, too.

P: Oh, very good. We should go hunting together.

A: Exactly, we could try go hunting by helicopter like you did. I never did that. Like we say in French, on pourrait tuer des bebe phoque s, aussi.(Translation: “One could kill out all the baby seals, too”.)

P: Well, I think we could have a lot of fun together while we’re getting work done. We can kill two birds with one stone that way.

A: I just love killing those animals. Mmm, mmm, take away life, that is so fun. I’d really love to go, so long as we don’t bring along Vice-President Cheney.

P: No, I’ll be a careful shot, yes.

A: Yes, you know we have a lot in common also, because except from my house I can see Belgium. That’s kind of less interesting than you.

P: Well, see, we’re right next door to different countries that we all need to be working with, yes.

A: Some people said in the last days and I thought that was mean that you weren’t experienced enough in foreign relations and you know that’s completely false. That’s the thing that I said to my great friend, the prime minister of Canada Stef Carse…(FACT CHECK: Not prime minister - but a singer - shouldn’t she know who the PM of Canada really is though?).

P: Well, he’s doing fine, too, and yeah, when you come into a position underestimated it gives you an opportunity to prove the pundits and the critics wrong. You work that much harder.

A: I was wondering because you are so next to him, one of my good friends, the prime minister of Quebec, Mr. Richard Z. Sirois (Fact check: Quebec comedian and radio host), have you met him recently? Did he come to one of your rallies?

P: I haven’t seen him at one of the rallies but it’s been great working with the Canadian officials. I know as governor we have a great co-operative effort there as we work on all of our resource-development projects. You know, I look forward to working with you and getting to meet you personally and your beautiful wife. Oh my goodness, you’ve added a lot of energy to your country with that beautiful family of yours.

A: Thank you very much. You know my wife Carla would love to meet you, even though you know she was a bit jealous that I was supposed to speak to you today.

P: Well, give her a big hug for me.

A: You know my wife is a popular singer and a former top model and she’s so hot in bed. She even wrote a song for you.

P: Oh my goodness, I didn’t know that.

A: Yes, in French it’s called de rouge a levre sur un cochon, or if you prefer in English, Joe the Plumber…it’s his life, Joe the Plumber. (Really translates to: “of lipstick on a pig”)

P: Maybe she understands some of the unfair criticism but I bet you she is such a hard worker, too, and she realizes you just plow through that criticism.

A: I just want to be sure. That phenomenon Joe the Plumber. That’s not your husband, right?

P: That’s not my husband but he’s a normal American who just works hard and doesn’t want government to take his money.

A: Yes, yes, I understand we have the equivalent of Joe the Plumber in France. It’s called Marcel, the guy with bread under his armpit.

P: Right, that’s what it’s all about, the middle class and government needing to work for them. You’re a very good example for us here.

A: I see a bit about NBC, even Fox News wasn’t an ally as much as usual.

P: Yeah, that’s what we’re up against.

A: Gov. Palin, I love the documentary they made on your life. You know Hustler’s Nailin’ Paylin? (Fact Check: A Porn Parody on Sarah Pailin. Read more…)

P: Ohh, good, thank you, yes.

A: That was really edgy.

P: Well, good.

A: I really loved you and I must say something also, governor, you’ve been pranked by the Masked Avengers. We are two comedians from Montreal.

P: Ohhh, have we been pranked? And what radio station is this?

A: CKOI in Montreal.

P: In Montreal? Tell me the radio station call letters.

A: CK…hello?

Alrighty,

This is pretty funny, I just did a check on Twitterholic, and according to their stats, I’m more popular than Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton!

If I’m that popular maybe I should run for President… of Course Obama would still beat me, as he’s #1, just as long as he beats Hillary in the Primaries - that’s all I care about.

What would be your top issues if you were to run for president?

My Top Issues:

1. Get the FREAK out of IRAQ! First and Foremost, aka NOW, aka ASAP, aka GO Straight to home - do not PASS GO!
2. Universal Healthcare for every citizen - I don’t care if I have to wait in line 2 hours, if that means that nobody is left out. Seriously, isn’t it “We the People - For the People?” If so, shouldn’t everyone have access to quality healthcare?
3. Free College Education. I would setup a program where everyone in the country who desires education can attain it. Afterall education is the ONLY known deterrent of Poverty, and if we’re the #1 country in the world, why are there so many suffering, so much crime, and so much poverty? Why do we jet off to fight in other countries when our own needs a lot of attention?

Those are my 3 major issues, what are yours? I’m interested in seeing where this goes…
