They will rob us first..if they are in office, I think they are doing it now to cover shortfalls for many years..

[aeonspromise]

Just look at the taxes your are charged daily, then notice nothing gets done with the money they take, take 2 doses of
anti bend over and call me in the morning.

[Caipirabob]

Well stated again.

You've just named the exact reason why Obama has to implement a plan that will only TAX us for 4 years before providing any real services.

[browniexyz]

Except that during the four years while we are paying taxes, the “health services” we once relied upon will disappear-—and you’ll only get the services you need if you can afford to get to your doctor in Costa Rica...

[kaylar]

Ha! When I was reading the post about California’s problems making payroll, I thought of that ad. IIRC, those ads came out in 2006 or 2007-before the great meltdown of 2008. Another warning sign overlooked, IMO. And your idea for the parody ad is great...it would be very effective....too bad it’ll never happen because the Republicans are (even now) too afraid of being called ‘racist’ (you KNOW that’s what the ad will be called, no matter how unjustified.)

SET THEIR LOCAL AND DC LINES ON FIRE!

PLEASE ASK THEM TO REPEAL THE BIG NEW FEES in TRICARE for Life, the retired Military over 65 secondary health ins. which they passed in a DOD bill. They promised our Military these benefits, and our Military have earned them.

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 enrollee’s 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.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf

Congress plans to block Tricare fee increases

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Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.

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.

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 can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.

[milagro]

Thanks for your comments. I feel the same way you do about how wimpy the Pubbies are, but they really do need some ad writers who are clever and GUTSY enough to lob some very well-honed barbs at the ballooning deficits the Libs in the WH and Congress are so busy--with a lot of hot air--asking the American tax-payers to finance.

PLEASE--someone here at FR MUST know of a good ad writer who the Pubs could find and use--we all here at FR could help with ideas. Goodness, considering all the great cartoons--and comments--Freepers come up with, we could provide some great ideas for ads: ones that could challenge people to not THINK about the dangers of "Progresssivism"--but FEEL it too.

IOW--use the "emotionalism" the Libs so love to use and turn it right back at 'em--only in a way that is also "edgey" enough to appeal to the mind as well as the gut.

[kaylar]

I do like your idea, and I agree it could be quite effective...Here’s hoping someone here knows someone, or there really ARE lurkers from High Places silently watching.

[HamiltonJay]

Democrats will lose 100+ seats in Congress in November, I have zero doubt that this will happen.

[Caipirabob]

This is going to be one long nightmare.

I have a hard time being civil to the people I know who voted for this traitor.
