The following was Jon Voight's speach given yesterday at Bachmann's House Call presser/rally at the US Capital

"...I am honored to be at the side of Michele Bachmann. A great Congresswoman, a great human being and a true American patriot (roar of applause) to hopefully be a voice for all Americans who do not want to pass Obama government-run health care. We do not want our freedom of choice taken away from us.

"President Obama has his own obsession with trying to ram this health bill through to create a socialist America. We would be no better off than the European countries, Canada, and New Zealand who suffer greatly from a poor health care system. They're rationing system creates many deaths. Is that what we want?  (Crowd shouts "NO") I agree with you. I say No as well.

"We as freedom-loving Americans must not be scared into Obama's radical Chicago tactics. His agenda is not for the poor. It is solely for his own political gain...His only success in his one-year term as president is taking America apart piece by piece. Could it be he has had 20 years of subconscious programming by Rev. Wright to damn America?

"Let them hear our concerns and deep commitment to our love of liberty, freedom and protection of our great America? President Obama, how long is it going to take you to bring victory in Afghanistan and not sit idly by while we watch our soldiers being killed? (Roar of applause)

"God bless our great nation and may God give us strength to prevail." (Actor Jon Voight, today at Bachmann press conference on steps of the U.S. Capitol)
