Conservative VS. Liberal

The House of Representatives is debating whether to expand the SCHIP program which would provide medical insurance to an additional four million children. The bill would make legal immigrant children also eligible instead of making them wait five years to be eligible as is now the case.

This legislation passed both the US House and Senate twice before but it was vetoed by Bush. President Elect, Barack Obama would sign the legislation.

Now if the bill does not pass, it will cause human pain, misery, suffering and possibly death for many children. As an excercise in understanding the difference between conservatives and liberals, I invite you to take a guess as to how conservatives will vote on this legislation.
