Obamacare Is Dead and Here's Why [Obamacare Ongoing Thread]

Town Hall ^ | 1-26-10 | Robert A. Levy

[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.

Thank you Piper. The 60 Minutes interview [since I can’t watch], is it about the financial meltdown? Vindication or new discovery?

Some common sense...
So far the news today is pretty depressing (unless you are a Karl Marx supporter). But here's the good news: not everyone in this country is a radical leftist (or being duped by them).
Check out all the people who are fired up and like you, are not going to sit by silently as America is fundamentally transformed into a Europe style big government nanny state. Stay informed. Start in your sphere of influence and grow from there.

When giving his centennial address to Congress in 1876, President James Garfield issued the following warning: “Now, more than ever before, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless, and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness, and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave, and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature…If the next centennial does not find us a great nation…it will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces.”
The United States of America is well on its way to becoming a socialistic nation and it wouldn’t surprise this author to see the Obama administration change our name to The National Socialist States of America before he leaves office, if he ever does.

Henry Waxman: The Witch Hunter of Capitol Hill By Michelle Malkin

Even before AT&T Inc. said Friday that it will take a $1 billion charge in the first-quarter because of the new health-care law, the issue was front-and-center with key lawmakers.Earlier this week, Caterpillar Inc., Deere & Co., and AK Steel Holding Corp. announced their own hefty one-time charges.
Almost immediately, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman of California and Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan, chairman of the Oversight and Investigations panel, announced plans to hold an April 21 hearing on “claims by Caterpillar, Verizon, and Deere that provisions in the new health care reform law could adversely affect their company’s ability to provide health insurance to their employees. These assertions appear to conflict with independent analyses, which show that the new law will expand coverage and bring down costs.”

Highly Decorated Army Surgeon Refuses All Military Orders Until Obama Proves He Is a Natural Born Citizen

A decorated active duty Army medical officer, Lieutenant Colonel Terry Lakin (selected for promotion to Colonel), is calling upon his chain of command and his Congressional delegation to force President Obama to release his original birth certificate. He is the highest ranking officer to go public over this controversy and in late February, was notified that he is subject to near-term deployment to Afghanistan.

His military orders include a requirement that he provide “copies of his birth certificate.” LTC Lakin is prepared to provide a certified copy of his certification of vital record that lists his birth hospital, physician’s name and other key information. He has provided this document for many other required processes, such as his commissioning into the military as an officer, and his marriage license.

Major Pro-Life Group Endorses Harry Reid’s Opponent
Wednesday, March 31, 2010
“GOPUSA”

Friends,

More and more conservatives are joining our campaign to defeat Harry Reid. I am excited to say that we have earned two important endorsements by recognized leaders in the conservative movement and I am grateful.

Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund (SBA List) — the national network of over 280,000 pro-life Americans — is dedicated to advancing and mobilizing pro-life women in the political process. SBA List Candidate Fund has endorsed me in the race to defeat Harry Reid and I am proud to stand with them in the fight to stop taxpayer-funded abortions and in the advancement of the cause of life.

I am also excited to announce that Jeri Thompson, wife of former U.S. Senator and Presidential candidate Fred Thompson, endorsed me in an article published by the American Spectator.

This growing support is important but we need your help as we face another critical test tomorrow. Will you to join SBA List and Jeri Thompson in supporting our campaign to defeat Harry Reid. On Wednesday, March 31st our campaign faces the critical Federal Election Commission (FEC) fundraising deadline and we need your support today to show that we have the resources to defeat Harry Reid and stop his liberal agenda.

I deeply appreciate the kind words of SBA List Candidate Fund’s President Marjorie Dannenfelser. In her endorsement of my candidacy she wrote, “Sue Lowden is exactly the type of authentic pro-life candidate Americans are hungry for... Right now there is a crying need for a pro-life woman’s voice in the Senate and Sue Lowden is committed to being that voice. If elected, Sue Lowden has committed to be actively engaged in advancing legislation that protects the unborn and women.”

In her endorsement Jeri Thompson wrote, “While there are other Republican candidates in this race, I am convinced Sue is the only conservative Republican with the toughness and experience to go toe-to-toe with former boxer Harry Reid.”

Over the weekend I joined thousands of Nevadans in Harry Reid’s hometown of Searchlight to kick off of the Tea Party bus tour across America. The energy and conviction of these principled Americans encourages and inspires me in our fight against Harry Reid and the belt-busting Democrat machine of Washington.

Synopsis:

Michael Lewis said sense of entitlement to Wall St has not ended, so it seems further exposure & on MSM! Per NY Comptroller Wall St spent 20 BILLION in bonuses last year, up 17% from 08’.

~Uncle Sam encouraged this

~Lehman Bros. categorized loans as sales to hide-the tactics employed by Lehman Brothers to effectively hide their crumbling financial status

~A handful of Wall Street outsiders who realized the subprime mortgage business was a house of cards and found a way to bet against it. Michael Lewis talks about the current situation on Wall Street, the large bonuses still being paid and his predictions for the future of the industry.

Note from site:

NOTE that the 60 Minutes report was sponsored by Pfizer, and features a prominent ad for Lipitor off to the side of the Web page. Isn’t it interesting that one of the largest industries responsible for the collapse of the economy is sponsoring this?

This is the company that has distorted and manipulated the truth so that people will pay hundreds of dollars for worthless and dangerous drugs that in no way, shape or form address their health issue, yet they are hoodwinked into believing that if they don’t take them their life is at stake.

So they have to sacrifice, in many cases, being able to purchase wholesome foods and even pay their mortgage, as they believe they will suffer if they fail to take their drugs.

The ad claims that “when diet and exercise are not enough, adding Lipitor can help lower cholesterol.” Of course, adding Lipitor also doubles your risk of a deadly stroke.

I’ll stick with diet and exercise, thanks.

thank you for this quote ...
