With Mike Sola; special needs families are no longer 'Sola'

"Sola" meaning alone in Spanish. Special needs family have found a champion against discriminatory Obamacare.
Sola stood up to Michigan Rep Dingell at a Town Hall meeting, saying that he spoke for his son with Cerebral Palsy who would be denied coverage under Obamacare. Now he is facing death threats from Obama supporters according to a Ron Paul supporter blog.
He was just interviewed on Fox News and spoke eloquently about his exchange with Rep Dingell who assured Sola that there was "an amendment" to cover the handicapped in the healthcare bill. Yet, when Sola challenged Dingell to 'name' the amendment number, he couldn't. Sola told Fox that if the healthcare plan was so wonderful, why would there have to be an amendment to give handicapped people coverage.
Mike Sola, you represent my daughter with Down syndrome better than the so-called Down syndrome organizations NDSS and NDSC who have not come out against this bill. Like the AARP who is in the tank for Obama, they too have forgotten whom they serve.

Isn't it an OPTION? If Mike loves his insurance company so much he can stay with it. I also think Cerebral Palsy would be better covered under the government plan. It's kind of sad that people probably won't get good coverage because they mindlessly listen to fear mongers.

Anonymous, you must be in Congress or are an Obama administration official, if you are so secure you are keeping your insurance. The rest of us peasants will find our employers dumping our insurance company when Obamacare offers cheaper options, subsidized by our tax dollars. Obama is on record in 2003 saying he favors a single payer system, so let's drop the talking points, shall we?
