Its very easy to blame Obama for these things but in all reality, he has nothing ot do with the lack of state funding for developmentally disabled children in colorado. I have been involved with a developmental disability agency for the past 8 years and Colorado officials are the ones who are cutting budget for these services. It is a shame that these young children will not be given a chance to live a fully functional life because certain individuals don't see the needs for services to help these children. I personally would even vote to increase state taxes 2% and have that money go directly to children and even adults with disabilities. I fully stand behind the Pressey Family and hope you are heard loud and clear and you are the voice that makes the difference that will help thousands of children and adults all throughout Colorado.

More help ? Here is the reality. Obama's new attempt in playing "ruler" with his new health care where he vowed EVERY Amerinca will have health care during his campaign, is another farse. Elderly will be dropped off the list and also Cancer patients who could recieve life saving medication. Special needs kids, especially infants will not receive help. Obama between health care and his lobbying for citizen paid abortions through our taxes will be the ultimate decider of the the value of human life for you and your family. I hope you don't plan on your parents being a vital part of your child's life. If you do, start saving for any medical care they might need. I am glad to say I did not vote for this monster.
