Obamacare Is Dead and Here's Why [Obamacare Ongoing Thread]
Town Hall ^ | 1-26-10 | Robert A. Levy

Posted on 01/25/2010 11:27:02 PM PST by JustPiper

As the Massachusetts blame game unfolds, the president’s unpopular health bill leads the list. But the substantive provisions of the bill were just part of the problem. Perhaps more important, voters were appalled by how the deal unfolded.

Consider the pre-election giveaway to the labor unions. Negotiators agreed to exempt union contracts until 2018 from the tax on so-called Cadillac health-insurance plans. That backroom bargain not only outraged the voters, it also violated the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, requiring the federal government to extend equal protection of the laws to all U.S. persons. Of course, not all voters understood the constitutional nuances, but they sensed that something was very wrong; and they reacted.

I have been disturbed by the socialists for years, ever since I learned many members of Congress 'openly' joined the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America). Several years ago, the names were published on the DSA site. (since removed of course) Please post any info you have, many of you have been on this issue for many years, & if we can store it all on one thread, we have our FreeRepublic Warehouse on the enemies of the state. How DO we combat this, when it's coming at us from every angle? When the people have been asleep for decades. Please post anything you have found or accumulated. Also choose a dictator these people follow, of particular interest,those in D.C. who have been quoted with their adulation of one.

Communism- Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism-Trotskyism-Maoism- Hoxhaism-Hoxhaism-Titoism ETC

Don’t you dare shame yourself. You fought for the weak — the unborn, the sick, and the elderly. Soldiers fail and DIE all the time, every day for the same causes.

Don’t diminish your sacrifice.

President Pinocchio Loves and Lives to Lie
Why? He can't help it; it's his nature. It's a secret lust to pull one over on people with his lies...a lust. The bigger and more frequent the lies, the greater the thrill; the most it feeds his secret lust.

abu has spent almost this entire speech attacking republicans...by name. Even those not in office. Karl Rove, et al.
He is deliberately taunting them on national tv. He has no class whatsoever. Worse than middleschool schoolyard bullies. Would he say it to their faces?
freaking coward.

Reports: An executive order to pay off pro-life Democrats?
By Michelle Malkin •

Both Left and Right are hearing rumors that the Dems are drafting an executive order to quell pro-life Democrat opposition to the government health care takeover plan.

Daniel Foster reports the buzz at NRO. Marc Ambinder at The Atlantic tweets it here.

If Democrat Rep. Bart Stupak and his pro-life colleagues are feckless enough to sign on to the nationalization of 1/6 of the American economy and the bottomless generational debt it will incur for another worthless Obama promise and empty scrap of paper, God help us all.

I do pray through my actions. Every minute of every day. And while I’m at it, I pray in my head for strength and guidance and wisdom and courage to do the things that are hard, but necessary. GOD has never let me down, but I have been tested. I am still here. And I thank GOD out loud for so very many, many things.
Okay.
I am calming down now.
This fight is NOT over. Not by a long shot.

don’t think I don’t have those feelings — intensely and often.

I remind myself he is only the face of a bigger evil. This started long before him; it has culminated in him actually and symbolically. He was the perfect choice to implement the evil that has been planned for America for decades.

After I remind myself of that, I pray for America, and then I dig down very deep into my sprit until I feel the presence of the Lord...and only then...I begin to pray for Obama personally.

This keeps me from being overcome by the evil and from forgetting that we have an Omnipotent King, the King of kings...and it’s not Obama. Our King installs rulers and deposes rulers at his will.
