Well, not Christmas, just your health care.

The target of the Grinch was the mythical village of Whoville and the merry and warm-hearted people who lived there, called the Whos. In the children’s book by Dr. Seuss the Grinch is a bitter, cave-dwelling, catlike creature with a heart “two sizes too small.” From his perch high atop Mount Crumpit, the Grinch can hear the noisy Christmas festivities that take place in Whoville. Envious of the Whos’ happiness, he makes plans to descend on the town and, by means of burglary, deprive them of their Christmas presents and decorations and thus “prevent Christmas from coming.”

Whoville is now America, Mt. Crumpit is the United States Government under the thumb of 3 Grinch Democrats, Obama, Reid and Pelosi, with brains two sizes too small, and possibly no hearts at all.

Dr. David Janda, an orthopedic surgeon from Ann Arbor, Michigan, has this to say at Big Government:

After reviewing the latest version of health care reform emanating from “the greatest deliberative body in the world”, The Senate, I was transported to Whoville, target of The Grinch…..from this point forward renamed America. It would appear that “Your mean ones,” Mr., Ms and Mr. Grinch (Obama, Pelosi and Reid) have heard and learned nothing from the town hall meetings and from all of the e-mails, phone calls, faxes and letters from ALL of us Whos.

Of the Grinches’ version of healthcare for us, a plan from which they will exempt themselves, Dr. Janda says,

The core and the heart is three sizes too small in both versions, and cuts costs by denying and rationing care, the most inhumane and unethical means of cutting costs. However, Washington’s Grinches have added a couple of “presents” to further harm all of us Whos.

Those “presents” are lumps of coal in our stockings in the form of medicare cuts to pay for the new government-run health system and the privilege of participating in a government insurance exchange that is really a mandate to buy insurance under terms and conditions dictated to us by our betters in the government.

Dr. Janda concludes,

Wow, on behalf of us Whos …..thanks for nothing Mr., Ms. and Mr. Grinch. It becomes evident, “it is déjà vue all over again” when it comes to the Grinches and their health care reform plan for all of us Whos. Their plan is not about creating available, affordable or quality health care. Their plan is about control of every Who’s health-care life. Once the Grinches control every Who’s health, The Grinches have the ability to control every aspect of every Who’s life.

In the real story of the Grinch, the villain had a change of heart. In fact, when his heart grew three sizes, the Grinch learned the real meaning of Christmas…. Whatever the three Grinches believe in, Obama, Pelosi and Reid need to listen to us Who’s, and give back control of our lives. Unfortunately, with our Grinches, their plan remains at least three sizes too small.
