A reader forwarded a GOP "census" sent out to check the pulse of Republican voters. Some of the questions:

Should Republicans do everything they can to prevent liberal Democrats from repealing the USA Patriot Act and other important laws that help our intelligence agencies protect America?

Should we make our fight against the Democrats' massive tax hikes a central part of the 2008 campaign?

Should Republicans oppose Democrat plans for one-size-fits-all, government-run health care?

Do you think Congress should pass the Federal Marriage Amendment, protecting marriage as a union between one man and one woman?

Do you think U.S. troops should have to serve under United Nations' commanders?

Of course, the bottom line question is "will you make a contribution today of $500, $250, $100, $50, $35, or $25?"

My favorite is the health care question. Not a single Democrat running for President (or Congress that I'm aware of) has proposed "government-run health care."

You can read the other reasons why you should be really, REALLY scared of Democrats in the "census" and the cover letter.

Congressmen, cabinet

Congressmen, cabinet members, the pResident, and the military all get govt run healthcare. If it sucks that badly, how about them elected paying for their own and, paying for private providers to give the troops the best care. Hypocritical bastards.

A new name

Let's rename universal single payer health care to Cheney Care 'cause we all deserve the chance to have a mechanical heart.
