The Republicans need to exploit this for all they can. “Tax raising Democrats, Socialists”. That’s what they need to say. Where is the next leader of the GOP?
“I can make a firm pledge,” he said in Dover, N.H., on Sept. 12. “Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.” - B Hussein Obama
Instead of taxing us several thousand dollars a year to fund a socialist system here, why can’t we just send the families that WANT socialism, to the socialist hole of their choice? I’d sponsor a family!
Must be the dims theme song.
Why don’t we just go to a single-payer “employer” system where the “employer” takes what “it” needs for health care, bailouts, handouts, freebees, and the like... and gives us what’s left. Like, money for a little bit of milk and bread. Just enough...
In order to diffuse the “gov’t healthcare will bankrupt us” argument, the liberals will have Obama’s plan “paid for” with cuts and tax increases.
Hi Friend,
379 donations before midnight!
What you do in the next 14 hours will determine whether AARP has the resources to win this fight.
Donate before MIDNIGHT TONIGHT to help us reach
our goal!
Please make a gift today.
We have just 14 hours to go until we launch a major campaign to counter the special interests in Washington that want to stop health reform.
But we still need 379 more donations to ensure your voice is heard.
Make a contribution today to our efforts to pass health reform.
We want to pull out all the stops to make sure we pass reform that works, including:
* Keeping this AARP health reform ad on the airwaves, putting real faces of Americans demanding reform in front of Congress;
* Organizing meetings and forums with AARP activists and key members of Congress in districts across the country; and
* Sharing personal health care stories from people like you in order to counter the distortions from health reform’s opponents.
Don’t let the special interests fool you. Health reform isn’t about which party is right.
It’s about expanding access to affordable care to millions of Americans age 50 to 64. It’s about helping millions to not have to choose between paying for their prescriptions or paying to put food on their tables. It’s about making sure Americans get the care and support they need in the comfort of their own homes, instead of having no choice but to go to a costly institution.
What we do in the next 14 hours will help determine whether we get the job done.
Please pitch in and help us reach our goal of 1,500 donations BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.
Thank you again for doing all you can to help us achieve health reform. It means a lot to me and to all of us at AARP.
Sincerely,
Barry Jackson
AARP Online Advocacy Manager
If they want to lower the income tax and raise the soda tax, I don’t have a problem with that.
Having said that, there’s no way they will pass the health care bill. They must do it ASAP or they’ll lose the momentum.
The health bill hasnt been passed yet and it is taken as a Fait Accompli.
Billions laid aside to produce a new Health Department .Billions to hire people who will tell us when we are supposed to die when they ration our health care.
And we watch it happening.
2010 HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!
