And the GOPe would like to move on to (passing) amnesty.
Napolitano is just NOW making that connection? OH MY SIDES!
Several of us here on FR said it from the beginning that Obamacare was going to be used to punish Obama's critics. I even wrote a little playscript about it back in 2009 which went something like this:
Obamacare Navigator: Hello Mr. Conservative. I see you need a heart transplant. Let's just examine your records here ..
Me: Yes, I need a new heart, I'm suffering from post-Aortic valve afibrillation, at least that's what my doctor calls it.
Obamacare Navigator: Hmmm. It says here Mr. Conservative that you've acquired a lot of wealth in your lifetime.
Me: Well, I worked hard, played by the rules and managed to invest wisely to save for my retirement.
Obamacare Navigator: I see Mr. Conservative. Your files also indicate that you've voted for smaller, more limited government by voting for Conservative candidates. Is that true?
Me: Yes, I vote for Conservative candidates. Why is that relevant to the discussion about my heart transplant.
Obamacare Navigator: Well you see Mr. Conservative, the party likes to reward its supporters. I see you don't vote for the party.
Me: You're looking at my voting record? Whatever happened to the private ballot?! (blood pressure spiking)
Obamacare Navigator: Well Mr. Conservative, as you know Obamacare managed to take all the data from all government systems and create profiles of each citizen. I see from your IRS records that you gave a lot of money to Pro-Life, Pro Gun and Pro Traditional Marriage causes. Tsk tsk!
Me: What about my new heart?! (gasping for breath as heart attack arrives)
Obamacare Navigator: Well see here Mr. Conservative, I'll tell you what we're going to do. First, we're going to seize your bank accounts and retirement funds and we're going to re-distribute that wealth to someone more deserving than you. You know, those who vote for the party.
Me: What!? You dirty son of a bi ... (clutching chest)
Obamacare Navigator: I see you also have a home and a vacation property also. We're going to seize that too.
Me: Ah ... ah .. (clutching chest) where's .... my .... wife .... ah, ah ... (gasping for air) going .... to .... live?!
Obamacare Navigator: don't you worry Mr. Conservative, your wife will be just fine in state run managed care.
Me: I swear I'm gonna ki .... (clutching chest, gasping for air, reaching for Obamacare Navigator's throat)
Obamacare Navigator: Now don't you worry Mr. Conservative. We'll handle everything from here. Oh, and about your new heart --- we're going to deny that claim. Are you ok Mr. Conservative?
Me: flatline .....
I'll tell you right here right now, that story above ain't far from the damn' truth! It wasn't when I originally posted it back in 2009/2010 and it's even closer to the truth now!!!
That one’s brilliant! ROFL! Andrew Leskow would be proud!
The democrats are directly responsible for any casualties of their idiocy.
Thank very much.
Im working on another Varack Lesko series as we “speak”
“GET THE GUVMENTS GIVING AWAY MONEY...GET YOURS NOW!........
Start a SOLAR Company.....an AUTOMOTIVE PLANT....
FInish Your WEB DESIGNER TRAINING
of just DONATE to my CAMPAIGN....”.....Barack Lesko Obama 2013
Your comments certainly apply to a single payer, socialist style of insurance where the government decides which individuals are not worth keeping alive.
Self insured pools have operated successfully for over a hundred years by setting rates across a broad pool of paying insureds at a level that covers catastrophic illness for the less than 1 percent that ever have those type of illnesses.
You can't have a system like this that covers those that can't pay premiums.
This is why in socialist style insurance, the government must make the determination who is not “worth” keeping alive with expensive treatments.
Please know you totally misconstrued my comments, read other comment to me and it may help clarify. I am strongly pro-life. From conception to natural death. I meant to Obama and his ilk she is not worth keeping alive. I think she should get the same care Sen. Coburn is currently getting for his cancer treatment.
I know how it is, it is easy to misread comments, I have done it many times.
I just reread my post and I could see where one could think I think that. I apologize, I just automatically assume people know I despise Obama and everything he does. In my mind I was answering the question about the real reason she lost her doctors, the Title of the article.
I too am incredulous our elected officials have exempted themselves from the downsides of socialist medicine. They keep their premium quality self insured pools. For life.
Everyone else must comply, but not them.
We need a constitutional amendment that forbids congress from exempting themselves from the laws they pass. I doubt this law would have passed if those voting for it had to abide by it.
I agree, we do need an amendment. It would start to cure a lot of our ills. Our Representatives would fight us tooth and nails....just another example of how they think they rule us instead of the other way around.
