Congressman Mike Rogers Speaks Out Against Democrats Government Run Health Care

A big H/T goes to Andrew33 over at K.O.O.K's Manifesto for passing this video along. This video really needs to go viral for all to see. It is excellent. First, here are some thoughts of mine.

I tell you folks, I have recently come across a congressman who has integrity and is of honorable character who is willing to say it like it is to the Democratic establishment in Washington D.C. Congressman Mike Rogers has stood up and spoken for the majority of the American people who just want to flush this piece of crap bill down the toilet. He points out some of the things that are so very wrong with the Democrats health care bill. He says that congress can come up with something much better than this travesty of a bill. It is not the Democrats bill or no bill at all. The Democrats are using fear tactics to make you think that if their bill doesn't pass than no bill is going to pass. If The Democrats would agree to the common sense solutions that the Republicans have come up with and offered to deal with the rising costs of health care and accessibility for 15% of Americans than congress could have had a common sense health care bill passed by now. This bill will hurt 85% of Americans for the sake of 15% of Americans. How ludicrous and nonsensical!! The GOP has offered much better ways to help the 15% of Americans who need health insurance obtain health insurance, without hurting the other 85% of the population with government run health care. The United States has the best success rates for ALL cancer patients around the globe. This is because of innovation, technology, and the ability for cancer patients to see whichever doctor they need to without government dictating which doctor they can see and which they can't see. But, if the Democrats pass their government run health care then this will change America's health care system as we know it today. Our health care will go down the tubes and will not be a place for others to come to for cutting edge medical procedures. Government run health care will halt that technology and innovation that makes the United States the greatest nation on earth. We must continue the good fight to stop government run health care from passing Congress.

Should The FBI Be Reading Suspected Terrorists Miranda Rights?

While on the ground at the U.S. base detention facilities in Bagram, Afghanistan Congressman Mike Rogers(R-MI) discovered that FBI agents are reading Miranda Rights to terror suspects.
The Department of Justice Dan Boyd has confirmed this.

Boyd stated:
"There has been no policy change and nor blanket instruction issued for FBI agents to Mirandize detainees overseas. While there have been specific cases in which FBI agents have Mirandized suspects overseas, at both Bagram and in other situations, in order to preserve the quality of evidence obtained, there has been no overall policy change with respect to detainees."

This policy was started under the Bush administration.

Rogers, a former FBI special agent and U.S. Army officer, says the Obama administration has not briefed Congress on the new policy. “I was a little surprised to find it taking place when I showed up because we hadn’t been briefed on it, I didn’t know about it. We’re still trying to get to the bottom of it, but it is clearly a part of this new global justice initiative.”

The FBI claim to only Mirandize very specific detainees for very specific reasons.

I don't understand why the FBI is reading Miranda Rights to terror suspects who are not United States citizens. I am against giving terrorists rights that only should be afforded to U.S. citizens regardless of which administration was/is having FBI agents do it. Are we constitutionally bound to do this? Or is the FBI using Miranda Rights as a tool in order to gain information? Is this setting a dangerous precedent? Why is the FBI only mirandizing a select few of the suspected terrorists? President Obama has just recently decided that the detainees at Guantanomo Bay are not going to come to U.S. for military tribunals. Bush never considered this to be an option either. So, then why are we essentially giving suspected terrorists rights that they are not required to have by law since they are not going to be coming to the United States?
