Conservative Protestants say U.S. health care system 'is working'

WASHINGTON — Conservative Christian groups on Wednesday (Aug. 26) ramped up opposition to health care reform, saying the current system "has problems" but "it is working."

Members of the newly formed Freedom Federation, includes, among others, the American Family Association, the Church of God in Christ, Concerned Women for America, Family Research Council Action, Liberty University and the Traditional Values Coalition.

On abortion, Federation members said they are concerned that although the word "abortion" does not appear in the draft bills, it will be paid for by the government under the proposed reform....

  1. There's a big diff. between caring about people w/o healthcare and a wanting a government take over of healthcare. Plus the 45 million figure is highly dubious.

  2. What constitutes a "take over" of health care, in your mind? The proposals are not a take over in my mind. Regulation, closing loopholes and creating a public option are ways to show you care not just say you care. IMHO
