Iowans Protest SCHIP Veto
http://www.kwwl.com/News/index.php?ID=16450

Congresses failed override of the veto on the expansion of S-CHIP prompted protests in Iowa City.

The group Iowa for Health Care held a vigil for the children they say President Bush and Congress abandoned. The State Children's Health Insurance Program, or S-CHIP, funds the Healthy and Well kids in Iowa, or HAWK-I, program. Protesters say the failed override is not the end.

"We're going to keep fighting for health insurance for low income families in this state and around the country."

REPUBLICANS HATE YOUR CHILDREN.

Every Dem except two scumbags voted FOR the bill.
For once, please, go after THE REPUBLICANS!!!
