This intimidation makes McCarthy look like a piker. No doubt it will be accompanied by breathless articles by ABCNBCCBSNYTWAPO cabal.
I truly look forward to the day when this fascist bastard Waxman is frog-marched out of the Capitol.
THIS HAS TO STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am soooooo frikkin’ tired of this $hit they’re pulling!!!!!!!
May they have the courage to tell them where to go.
This is an outrage !!!
I’d tell them to kiss my azz!
Well it looks like this is the next front on the assault on American freedom-a concerted public attack on the insurance companies to demonise them to the sheeple-who always seem to fall for the class warfare and “soak the rich” tactic. If only we had a conservative leader with the clout to dish it back to the rat congressmen, and show up their hypocrisy by pointing out their perks and privileges and abuses of power and privilege, like their “junkets” to Caribbean playgrounds in the guise of “fact-finding” regarding “global warming”, and such.
Are they also asking for the personal records of their patients?
RED HERRING! RED HERRING!
ALERT! ALERT!
How difficult would it be for the insurance industry people to find evidence of malfeasance in Congress? Why don’t the insurance guys fight back?
I’d love to know how much money has been spent on SENATOR EDWARD KENNEDY in the past year. I’d guess about 5 MILLION DOLLARS ! ! ! ! !
Yeah, the inscos are the big, bad enemy. But they are lining up behind BHO’s plan.
Why?
Because they know Americans WILL BE FORCED to purchase their products, competition will be STIFLED, and more money will flow through their coffers.
It truly is fascism. Govt and BigBiz in bed together to control how the little people live. Life and death decisions made not by individuals and families and trusted doctors, but by bureaucrats and actuaries.
No thanks.
Wow, these people are really wanting the “grey suits” to come out and play.
Be my guest. I think —you really don’t mess around with guys who routinely drink 200-year old scotch. Talk about stirring up a hornets nest.
But, sigh, this is:
a) yet ANOTHER attack on the free market system; or,
b) a giant Red Herring to change the subject
I hope Henry Waxman gets a hangnail and a papercut today.
I curse your mustache a 1,000 times.
Nostrilus, you already wrote the bill. Little late for research isn’t it?
Taken from a recent email I received, caps and all...
“Is anyone REALLY surprised at this? Don’t forget, U.S. citizens freaking VOTED these schmucks into office... they asked for this by majority... that’s how the liberals win... they exist and thrive off the ignorant vote... it’s a shame and it’s sad (original sender - not my comment.)”
Subject: $64,000 Question Asked-
FINALLY..... THE $64,000 WAS ASKED.
YESTERDAY ON “ABC-TV” (BETTER KNOWN AS THE ALL BARRACK CHANNEL)
DURING THE “NETWORK SPECIAL ON HEALTH CARE”.... OBAMA WAS ASKED:
“MR. PRESIDENT WILL YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GIVE UP YOUR CURRENT HEALTH CARE PROGRAM AND JOIN THE NEW ‘UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM’ THAT THE REST OF US WILL BE ON ????”..... (BET YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER)...
THERE WAS A STONEY SILENCE AS OBAMA IGNORED THE QUESTION AND CHOSE NOT TO ANSWER IT....
IN ADDITION, A NUMBER OF SENATORS WERE ASKED THE SAME QUESTION AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS...”WE WILL THINK ABOUT IT.”
AND THEY DID. IT WAS ANNOUNCED TODAY ON THE NEWS THAT THE “KENNEDY HEALTH CARE BILL” WAS WRITTEN INTO THE NEW HEALTH CARE REFORM INITIATIVE, ENSURING THAT CONGRESS WILL BE 100% EXEMPT ! This should speak volumes to all of us.
SO, THIS GREAT NEW HEALTH CARE PLAN THAT IS GOOD FOR YOU AND ME... IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR OBAMA, HIS FAMILY OR CONGRESS...?? WE (THE AMERICAN PUBLIC) NEED TO STOP THIS PROPOSED DEBACLE ASAP !!!!... THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG !!!!!
IF YOU AGREE PLEASE PASS THIS ON ....IF NOT PLAN TO SUFFER WITH THE OBAMA HEALTH CARE PLAN ....FOR FREE.... WHILE OUR SELF-SERVING POLITICIANS MAKE SURE THAT THEY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES AT OUR EXPENSE.
“Number 12 Looks Just like Me”..
The insurance companies should tell them to go F themselves. If it’s not required in SEC disclosures, then the rest of the world has no right to it. That includes that perverted little maggot Waxman and his other congress cronies.
So when are they going to ask about David Axelrod’s conflict of interest/ connections:
David Axelrod’s Very Big Problem - Conflict of Interest? (Hugh Hewitt/Politico breaking news)
Hugh Hewitt ^ | 08/18/2009 | taildragger
The allegations in this Bloomberg story —if true— pose a huge problem for a senior advisor to the president, David Axelrod. This is the heart of the problem:
Axelrod was president and sole shareholder of AKPD from 1985 until he sold his interest after Obamas victory, government records show. The firm owes Axelrod $2 million, which its due to pay in installments beginning Dec. 31. Axelrods son, Michael, still works there. He didnt return a phone call. The firms Web site continues to feature David Axelrods work on the Obama campaign. (Emphasis added.)
The problem is that Axelrod’s former firm is currently receiving huge fees “from Healthy Economy Now, a coalition that includes the Washington-based Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America, known as PhRMA,” as well as AARP, the SEIU and other big players in the health care debate.
If Axelrod has been negotiating any part of any deal involving any of these players which are funneling money to the firm that owes him money, or if he is advising the president on the deals with any of these groups, that’s a conflict of interest. Laundering the money through a “coalition” doesn’t remove the conflict much less the appearance of impropriety. The coalition is in effect partially funding David Axelrod’s severance package though its members might have done so unknowingly. These forthcoming payments to Axelrod are much more significant than the sort of “retained ties” that Democrats blasted Dick Cheney for vis-a-vis Halliburton even though there was no high level negotiations between the vice president and his former company.
David Axelrod has some tough questions to answer, and according to Politico’s Mike Allen, Politico’s Ken Vogel will be publishing more on matters Axelrodian tomorrow. (Thetranscript of my interview with Allen will be posted here later tonight.) Vogel’s story on Axelrod’s son from a few days back casts doubt on the Bloomberg story’s accuracy as Bloomberg has Axelrod’s son still at Axelrod’s old firm, but Vogel has him at The Huffington Post.
If it was Karl Rove in a similar set of circumstances, the blogs and some in MSM would already be demanding a special prosecutor. There are lots of questions for Mr. Axelrod, the first one being whether the Bloomberg story is accurate. if the answer is “yes,” the second will be: “Have you lawyered up?” .... http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2319044/posts
“DO YOU NOW, OR HAVE YOU EVER, KNOWN ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY??”
Just tell them that all the information they need is in the 10K and annual report to stockholders; just like the law requires.
“Intimidation” is not the word. This is persecution.
