Americans will find out what we've been anxiously awaiting for the past 2 years: whether or not the government health care takeover bill is constitutional. Tomorrow, at 10 a.m., people across the Nation will be closely watching and listening as the Supreme Court delivers its opinion. In efforts to rally her party for ObamaCare, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi outraged Americans at a press conference by stating, ``We have to pass the bill so we can find out what's in it.'' The American people now know this bill, and they overwhelmingly disapprove of this bill, which the National Federation of Independent Business reveals will destroy 1.6 million jobs. It is my hope that the Supreme Court will side with the best interests of the American people and overturn the job-destroying, out- of-control spending, and overreaching government health care takeover bill, which will hurt senior citizens with waiting lists, rationing, and denial of service. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Congratulations, Tom Rice of Myrtle Beach. ____________________
