The most shocking statement in the entire Obama/Romney debate earlier this week was this from President Obama:
“You know a major difference in this campaign is that Governor Romney feels comfortable having politicians in Washington decide the health care choices that women are making. In my health care bill, I said insurance companies need to provide contraceptive coverage to everybody who is insured. Because this is just not a health issue. It’s an economic issue for women. It makes a difference. This is money out of that family’s pocket.”
This is so shocking because it reveals the degree of fantasization Obama has about his own health care bill. Politicians in Washington deciding the health care choices women are making? Is that not the perfect description of the individual mandate and the employer mandate in Obamacare?
Of course, women are not making any choices if politicians are deciding them. But that awkward phrasing is not just a mistake. It reflects some awkward thinking. Obamacare’s individual mandate and the employer mandate are precisely politicians in Washington deciding your health care choices for you. Under Obamacare, Kathleen Sebelius, not you, will be deciding what health insurance you must buy, and exactly what it covers. Just ask the Catholic Church about politicians in Washington making your health care choices for you.
Equally shocking is the tooth fairy economics of Obama’s statement. If the health insurance company is paying for it, then it is not money out of the family’s pocket? Who does Obama think is paying the health insurance company for that benefit? When the health insurance company is paying for it, it is more money out of the family’s pocket not less, because minor health care bills like contraceptives cost more to insure through third parties than paying for them directly.

I got a card in the mail today from the 0 campaign. It said Republicans are trying to make being hispanic illegal.

Yup. I’m targeted for my last name and neighborhood. I get all kinds of ignorant campaign stuff in the mail. The article posted here made me think of that card because it seems all they have are ridiculous accusations that stupid people will believe. The card has photos of “hispanic” people with a quote by Linda Chavez-Thompson, DNC vice chair, “we are being attacked...by republicans who are trying to make being hispanic a crime.”
Good post!

The problem with 0 is he learned how to stir up an utilize divisive racial strategies while working as an activist for ACORN all too well. He knows how to stir voters up to get them vote the way he wants them to. The problem is the less informed public isn’t aware to the degree of how well versed he is in these strategies and falls for them.
Obama has been the most dishonest, deceptive, and manipulative President in U.S. history, maybe even in world history and all time. We need to put safeguards in place to ensure that future presidents cannot abuse their authority as he has. In fact it may be necessary to study his presidency to identify all of the methods he used to accomplish his sidesteps in order to determine what needs to be done to prevent it from ever happening again. Executive privilege definitely needs to be re-examined.
It already is.
If you are here illegally then by your heritage, if one wants politicize it.
I’m fine with Illegal, period.
Don’t care if yoos Anglo Saxon, Mongoloid or whut evuhhhhh....

Obama is in a world of his own. He doesn’t mention the death panels either That’s a choice I would rather keep out of Washington.
To the contrary! The most shocking thing I heard Romney say during the second debate was that he could guarantee getting comprehensive immigration reform passed in his first year in office.
That’s a conservative’s worst nightmare. Not only that liberal legislation that Obama would be challenged to pass in a second term will glide right through with Romney’s guiding, ‘bipartisan’ hand, but that among that legislation will be the one that assures a liberal voting majority from here on out.
Only way you believe Obama is a good President is because of the dread political disease of Obamaesia..
**Obamaesia: A willful disregard of current and past obvious political facts..
In your face facts that only this disease can steal from your UKRANIUM.. and awareness..
Some call it Political Tourettes Syndrome...
