                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Mr. FLEMING asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. FLEMING. Mr. Speaker, over months of debate over the government 
takeover of health care, a growing list of terms created by the 
Democrats have been added to the American lexicon, terms such as 
``Cornhusker kickback,'' ``Louisiana purchase,'' ``Gator aid,'' the 
``doc fix,'' ``reconciliation,'' ``nuclear option,'' ``taxpayer-funded 
abortions,'' and now worst of all, ``deeming a bill passed,'' ``self-
executing'' and the ``Slaughter solution.''
  The Democrat House members carp that the American people don't care 
about the process. After speaking to thousands of Americans about 
this--not only do they absolutely hate this bill 3 to 1 and feel it 
will damage America forever, they feel the Democrat Party's arrogance 
of power is unprecedented in American history.
  Mr. Speaker, process does matter, especially when Members of Congress 
and a President get themselves elected to power on the promise of 
transparency and ethics, and then stoop to a system of bribes and 
creative parliamentarian procedures to ram through a government 
takeover of one-sixth of the economy, health care, merely to advance 
their ideology of incremental socialism, which is strongly opposed by 
the American people.
