Democrats Don't Care About 'Health,' It's All About Politics
Publius Forum ^ | 03/21/10 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 03/21/2010 10:50:32 AM PDT by Mobile Vulgus

Robert Creamer of the HuffyPost penned a very revealing piece that proves that Democrats simply don't care at all about anyone's "health," but that this whole fiasco is solely about political "wins" and power. If someone happens to get a little healthcare out of the thing, that is purely incidental to the actual purpose of Obamacare.

Creamer's piece describes the top 10 reasons why voting yes on Obamacare is "good politics for Democrats." Tellingly, not one of the reasons is because healthcare "reform" is good for the people. In fact, most of his "reasons" that Dems should vote for Obama's socialist take over of our healthcare system is because it's good for Obama's political fortunes.

One would think that Democrats should vote for this "reform" because it's good for the people, but that idea doesn't seem to factor into Creamer's reasons at all. And from the political calculations we've seen during this last year of healthcare debate, he isn't much different than those whose vote will create this socialized healthcare program...

ObamasCare + DemoRats = Agida

Italian-American slang for heartburn but it can also mean mental aggravation--- derived from the Italian "agitare" meaning "to agitate.

It has nothing to do with healthcare. It’s about Barack the Kenyan’s presidency. If this passes, they will use the same techniques to pass “amnesty”, Cap’n Tax and card check for their union thug comrades.

Everything but the most obvious,

the bill is written, supported, and bribed for by the health insurance companies and Pharma.

It is like all the pundits are on LSD. Take the “conservative” ones at national review. After occasional panic attacks about the “public option”, blatantly a trick on liberals, yet believed by these business cultists to be real, they act dumbfounded about who and why this bill is being forwarded, since they idolize the same interests.

On the bright side, the Democrats are scared enough to pull out the race card now.

Obamacare isn’t about health or insurance, it’s about GOVERNMENT CONTROL.

It’s about a bunch of leftist radical commie sons of bitches taking control of the lives of all Americans.

We now formally live in a commie fascist dictatorship.

“Obamacare isn’t about health or insurance, it’s about GOVERNMENT CONTROL.”

It’s about the insurance money, plain and simple.

Government will be a revenue collection agency for the insurance industry.

Just like gun control, healthcare is all about CONTROL.

Who on earth thinks it is a giood idea to put the IRS in charge of enforcing healthcare? Please, show me even 1 person!

Reason #1 - Finally, victory will allow Members of Congress to be on the right side of history. Social Security, Medicare, Civil Rights, a woman's right to vote, ending slavery.... every one of the major steps on America's road to become a more democratic society has been marked by controversy and conflict. But how many people today would want to brag that their grandfather voted against Social Security or Medicare?

What?!?!?!

Social Security and Medicare are the biggest failures ever!!

Epic Failures!!

People should be jailed for continuing Social Security as it bankrupts the country!!

No, politics is the tool. The goal is power. They use politics to seize power. When lies and deceit is necessary to seize power, the democrats use lies and deceit. When violence becomes necessary, they will use violence.

The Rats have become lemmings, willing to run off the cliff for their Dear Leader.

There has to be a concerted effort in the fall to vote out every last person who supported the ObamaCare monstrosity. Obviously some of them are in super-safe districts but this needs to be a shift that outdoes 1994.
