Watch this video

The point of view promoted by this source consists of very right wing Republican ideas. Sean Hannity and Michelle Malkin discuss with each other over video chat about how so many Americans are furious about the currently pending health care bill and on top of that are being accused of being an, “angry mob”. In the video there is a protest shown with Republicans demanding that the bill not be passed. They are acting very passionately and show a very serious concern about what the health care reform is going to do to their medical care. Democrats mocked the Republican’s remarks and took them about as seriously as a snake takes a mouse. The argument of the Republican’s in this case is the ethics behind the doctoral care that will be provided if the health care reform bill is passed. They are very concerned for paying for others abortions that they themselves do not even believe in. Also because most right wing Republicans are completely against abortion, they want it completely done away with. Many of these town hall meetings get pretty heated and Democrat speakers are beginning to back out of them last minute because they believe that it is too much pressure and unnecessary to have to deal with the yelling, shouting and screaming of uncontrolled Republicans. I think that this source answers a very unique part of my research question. The passion of the Republicans against the health care reform bill approaches a different subject of medical attention they will receive; it addresses the ethics of medical attention and all that is encompassed that they are morally opposed to that is within the bill. Many Republicans would be opposed to seeking medical attention from doctors who right before they come in for consultation are performing abortions; something that they are completely opposed to. Republicans would have no choice about which doctor they will and will not see though because they have no choice; because within the pending health care reform bill, the government will choose the citizens insurance plan which limits which doctors they will be able to see.
