Political Quotes

“The Senator mentioned my daughter, who, by the way, just blessed us with a granddaughter just 3 weeks ago. It is a very short story, if the Senator doesn't mind me telling it. It did motivate me to run. I think it illustrates how damaging ObamaCare has been and could be in the future. Our daughter Carey was born 32 years ago with a very serious congenital heart defect. Her aorta and pulmonary artery were reversed. The first day of life, there was an incredibly dedicated, incredibly skilled medical professional--a doctor who President Obama just weeks before had accused of looking to fee schedules--not that individual doctor but doctors in general--to see what they would be willing to charge to take out a set of tonsils or amputate a foot to make a few more bucks. That charge is so offensive on so many levels because those doctors came in on her first day of life at 1:30 in the morning and saved Carey's life. Then, 8 months later, when her heart was the size of a small plum, and with 7 hours of open-heart surgery, a team of incredibly dedicated medical professionals in 7 hours of open-heart surgery rebaffled the upper chamber of her heart. Her heart operates backwards today, but she is 32 years old. She is actually a nurse practitioner, practicing in the same hospital where her life was saved. Now she is a new mom, and she made me a new granddad. Our health care system wasn't perfect prior to ObamaCare, but it was still a marvel. I am so concerned about the loss of freedom.…”
