Congressman Jeb Hensarling who represents the Dallas and Athens areas has not been quiet when it comes to his disapproval of the healthcare reform bill.

He read a letter from the Congressional Budget Office on CSPAN yesterday that states the healthcare reform bill will add to the deficit.

Hear more from his empassioned speech:

"I could go to the Congressional Budget Office and say, 'I want you to score the Hensarling family health care plan and I want to assume I don't get sick the next ten years and we're putting our children up for adoption. Can you give me a number?' One assumption is false and the other assumption is totally unrealistic. So CBO will score what's before them. Now that the Speaker said on the record there will be a doctor fix, you can't count on a 21% pay cut," Rep. Hensarling said.

Thanks for trying Jeb. Too bad about the migration of thousands of more jobs to foreign countries, but hey, we've got healthcare. I understand that one of the companies in Tyler will be moving 250 jobs to Mexico.

Sorry Hensarling -- your quest to keep your insurance buddies out of hot water has failed -- now they are up a creek of their own digging.
