Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.

For many years I didn't have health insurance.

The number of individuals and families in Georgia who buy their own health insurance is growing every day and, like all Americans, they are struggling to fit another expense into their budgets at a time when everything seems to cost more from the gas pump to home heating.

This president didn't sound particularly concerned about the 46 million people without health insurance.

But I can tell you what I believe: When tens of thousands of innocent souls have perished in Darfur-when 11 million children are without health insurance-when our colossal debt subjects our economic future to the whims of Asian bankers-no one can tell me that faith demands this Senate spend its time arguing over a handful of judges. No one with those priorities can use my faith to intimidate me.

Nobody likes insurance companies, especially health insurance companies.
