From: "Glenn Meadows" 

It's killing us here in TN too, with TNCare.  Hopefully, that program will
be allowed to clean itself up.   The judges here are blocking all efforts
to
purge the system of people who are fraudently enrolled.  Local judge blocks
changes, it's appealed to Cincinnati, where the local judge is overturned.
Then he rules again to block changes another way, and gets appealed and
overturned again.  This has been going on for months now, and the TN
taxpayers continue to pump more money after bad.

Plus, the legislature is blocking any move to change the law that allows
illegals to get Drivers Licenses, which have been shown to have been used
to register to vote.
