Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are on a Kamikaze mission. And theyre now preparing to ram government-run health care down our throats by using a series of legislative tricks and parliamentary gimmicks.
Theyve just repackaged the same tired ObamaCare ideas that the American people have already rejected... rationed care
drastic cuts to Medicare Advantage
hundreds of billions of dollars in tax increases
the unconstitutional individual mandate
taxpayer-funded abortions
and more.

Or alternately, you can send over 530 urgent, personalized faxes to Barack Obama and all of the Members of the House and Senate.
Let them know, in no uncertain terms, that you reject this latest version of ObamaCare. Let them know that the American people are not stupid. That no amount of spin from Barack Obama or Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid or their allies in the liberal media will change the fact that the American people want ObamaCare defeated once and for all.

“we only need to shift a handful of votes to kill ObamaCare once and for all”
I agree with your sentiments and objectives, but respectfully disagree on this. As long as there are collectivists and social parasites among us, this will continue to plague us.
Someone clear something up for me. On Brett Baier’s show last night they said in order to use reconciliation in the Senate, first the House would have to pass the Senate bill, intact, and in total. Then the Senate could use reconciliation.
Is that right? And if so, how do they think they’ll ever get enough votes in the House to do that?
Proof of DNC Corruption ignored by DOJ and SCOTUS
=========================================
Altered voting certificates by Pelosi for election fraud for the DNC

United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the
following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice
President of the United States respectively and that the following candidates for President
and Vice President of the United States are legally qualified to serve under the provisions
of the United States Constitution:
Exhibit 2: specifically leaves out the qualifying requirement:
THIS IS TO CERTIFY that at the National Convention of the Democrat Party of the
United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the
following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice

D.C. Tech Official Is Accused of Bribery(Birth Certificate Forgery)
A D.C. government official and a business executive were arrested yesterday on bribery
charges involving city technology contracts that included "ghost" workers and
kickbacks, federal authorities said. Until recently, the technology office was headed
by Vivek Kundra, who has taken a job as President Obama's chief information officer.
A White House official confirmed last night that Kundra has taken a leave of absence.
Yusuf Acar, 40, who has worked in the technology office since 2004, was charged with
bribery, conspiracy, money laundering and conflict of interest.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Hibarger told a federal judge that Acar is a flight risk because agents
seized $70,000 in cash in his house and because in recorded conversations, he boasted that he could easily flee to his native Turkey.
Acar also told the informant that he could use
computers to create fake D.C. birth certificates, Hibarger said.
should read:
we only need to shift a handful of votes to kill ObamaCare again for this month...”
This is all a bunch of hot air to keep drawing out what is already dead.

Precisely, and having already been burned on the Public Option and Cap n Tax, none of the House Democrats trust the Senate Democrats on this point. They are floating some idea where the Senate would pass the “fixes” via reconciliation first and then Obama would just sign them in reverse order, but still it seems unlikely they can overcome their mistrust of the Senate.

Rename, repackage, rewrite it a tad smaller, and sell another pig in a poke.

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollees cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.)

Congress plans to block Tricare fee increases
http://www.armytimes.com/news/2009/10/military_tricarefees_blocked_100709w
By Rick Maze - Staff writer, Oct 7, 2009
Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.
Snip
The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.
Snip
Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.
President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees in fiscal 2010, Matz said. We took them at their word, and I cant believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward, he added.
