Crossing a Line in the Health Care Debate? White House Sending HC Propaganda to Federal Employees?

The White House Office of Health Reform Director Nancy-Ann DeParle has been feverishly sending out unsolicited email messages to federal employees in an effort to build support for President Barack Obama’s health reform package over the last several weeks.

DeParle’s unsolicited emails have been regularly coming to some federal employees’ official government email inboxes for weeks without permission or request, causing some federal employees to feel threatened by the overt political language.

The Department of State employees, who receive hundreds of official government emails every day, have complained about the annoying and partisan emails but are nervous to go public for fear of retribution. The emails are addressed to the federal employees by name and use the official .gov address.

The unsolicited emails also request that the federal employees take action in order to ensure that Obama’s health reform package is passed and the federal budget isn’t at risk for bankruptcy. One federal employee was so concerned about DeParle’s language in one email that he questioned whether his department’s budget would be cut or eliminated without passage of Obama’s bill. DeParle uses scare tactics that some assume are meant as threats:

“No ifs, ands or buts about it -- if we do nothing to reform our broken health care system, costs will continue to skyrocket and break the budgets of American families, small businesses and the Federal Government,” read the March 12th email from DeParle.

Judicial Watch Sues HHS to Obtain Documents Related to President Obama’s Secret Healthcare Meetings

Slaughter Rule Unconstitutional

I know many of you are concerned about the corrupt process liberals in Congress have been using to push through the government health care legislation. The latest outrage is the plan by the House Democratic leadership to use the so-called Slaughter Rule to “deem” the Senate health care bill passed without an actual up-or-down vote. Below is a statement that I issued just today for Judicial Watch on the “deem and pass” trick

BREAKING! Big Get: Altmire to Vote No

This could be very big. Rep. Jason Altmire (D., Penn.) has done his darndest to position himself as the deciding vote on health-care reform, and I predicted earlier this week that he would end up voting with the majority either way. Congressman Jason Altmire will vote against the latest version of health care reform when the U.S. House of Representatives votes on the bill this weekend.

Altmire confirmed that he has decided to vote no in a telephone conversation with KDKA political editor Jon Delano. The McCandless Democrat is expected to post a statement on his website later today. In...

To: JustPiper; Arthur Wildfire! March

Just for you & Arthur Wildfire, Pipsies, and FR: I’ll try this one more time:


A. If it passes, consider 2010 the year the AH calendar decided to take over. This bill, with health and education ‘care’ thrown in, including its exemption provision for ‘religion’ S 1402 (g [Gregorian]) (1 [first historical year of recognizing the hijri calendar]), is both zakat and a poll tax for non-believers. Get it? Section 1402 (g)(1)

There are references in the Health Care Bill, but, nothing beyond a reference to IRS code, although there is language in the Health Care bill, as there has been for some time:

171
•J. 55–345
1 sion thereof described in section 1402(g)(1) and
2 an adherent of established tenets or teachings
3 of such sect or division as described in such sec4
tion.
5 ‘‘(B) EXEMPTION.—An application for the
6 exemption described in subparagraph (A) shall
7 be filed with the Secretary at such time and in
8 such form and manner as the Secretary may
9 prescribe. Any such exemption granted by the
10 Secretary shall be effective for such period as
11 the Secretary determines appropriate.

B. Maybe this is year 2 of the 1. Ask your Congressperson who GETS that religious exemption and under which provisions members of such religions are ‘exempt’.

C. ‘zakat’ and ‘nisab’: (Nisab means the minimum amount fixed by Islamic Shariah for certain kinds of wealth and valuables.) Terms and Conditions: 1- Zakatable assets must be at least equivalent to Nisab. 2- Zakatable assets at least to the limit of nisab must be in the ownership of a person for one lunar year.
Zakatable Assets and its Nisab

1- Gold: The nisab for gold is 3 oz. or 100 g.
2- Silver: The nisab for silver is 21 oz. or 700 g.

http://goicn.com/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=344

D. And, the bill was posted at 12:44 (8:44 in Mecca): Remember 8:44 am on 9/11?

http://www.historycommons.org/timeline.jsp?timeline=complete_911_timeline&startpos=3000#a903
________________________________________
Get it, folks?
3 - 2 - 1 - 8:44
Slaughter Deem, indeed

E. Could the entire Health Care bill simply be ‘cover’ for making certain this is in fact “the largest muslim nation on earth”? Section 1402 (g)(1). 1402 on the Gregorian calendar was the original year of the conversion used for anno hegira, the hijri calendar: year 1. To which religions does the health care exemption of section 1402(g)(1) apply and under what circumstances? Is education included, or is it part of “outreach”? Please refer to my earlier posts, search for yourself, and to the historical origin of the use of the hijra calendar.

From what I have found, there is NO explanation other than the language posted for the application of religious ‘opt out’ or exemption.

The health care bill, with education thrown in, is zakat, and, thus pays alms and homage to the 5 pillars of Islam. After all, ‘courage’ in Arabic is Hamas, and crisis or struggle is ‘jihad’. Obama’s key words are not spoken to American audiences.

F. In re finding Section 1402(g)(1):

“The origins of the hijra calendar are recorded as having begun in AD 1402 on the Gregorian Calendar, so that the equivalent beginning of the hijra year 1 corresponds to 1402 in the Gregorian calendar:

“1402 A.H. began with the Lunation No. 728 in October 1981.
A conversion of Hijra years into the Gregorian calendar may be made using the following relationship:-
Christian Era (A.D.) = 621.54 + (Hijra in years and decimals) X 0.970225 “”

http://home.pacific.net.sg/~makhdoom/calend2.html


________________________________________

G. Arabic for “courage” “Hamas - Literally, “zeal” or “courage” in Arabic. It is also an acronym that stands for Islamic Resistance Movement, a militant Islamist Palestinian organization that opposes the existence of the state of Israel and favors the creation of an Islamic state in Palestine. Founded in 1987 in Gaza — and briefly encouraged by Israel as a counter to the PLO — it participated actively in the first intifada against Israel’s occupation. It began terrorist attacks on Israel in the late 1980s. Initially it opposed the 1993 Oslo peace agreement between the PLO and Israel, but it cooperated intermittently with the agreement during the 1990s. Since the outbreak of the second intifada in 2000, it has been one of the primary military organizations carrying out attacks on Israeli settlers, soldiers and civilians”

B. Per Beck yesterday:

1. Roe v Wade, 1973 & Duel v Bolton: The federal government has no business interfering with a woman deciding what to do with her body. Now, with the HC, the government is telling everyone exactly what to do with their bodies.

2. Senate version is the version that has to pass. (from opentalk)...the origins of the bill , also started with a gimmick to get around the rules. It was a tax IRS code bill for first time home owners. from link

. ...Reid HAD to do this. Why? Because all legislation that raises taxes MUST originate in the House of Representatives and H.R. 3590 satisfies that requirement.

I will repeat that, Harry Reid switched the language in H.R. 3590 and replaced it with the Senate’s version of the health care system takeover in order to satisfy the requirement for all legislation raising taxes to originate in the House. The bill summary outlines the evolution of this bill:

OFFICIAL TITLE AS INTRODUCED:
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify the first-time homebuyers credit in the case of members of the Armed Forces and certain other Federal employees, and for other purposes.

OFFICIAL TITLE AS AMENDED BY SENATE:
An act entitled The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

3. How do the CBO numbers make any difference really? We’re transitioning....A starter home. To make HC and education a ‘Right.’ This has been the plan from the beginning. Ctr for American Progress, Soros & Podesta-led, have admitted that the rules on reconciliation have admitted the “instructions (that) were given” in the budget. Not negative liberties, but housing, health care, food, education and a job: FDR’s 2nd bill of rights. Pushed through by Elanor Roosevelt, per the UN. Ratified by the UN. Read the Soviet constitution. The US was one of 6 countries not to ratify (at the time).

4. The Soviets knew the fall of the USSR was coming and prepared for it. Belavezha Accords
