Under new federal regulations in Obama’s America a commissar will decide if you are too fat
The Collins Report ^ | July 17, 2010 | Kevin “Coach” Collins

Suck in that gut and start working off that muffin top midriff. The nervy Marxists who run our lives have given themselves the power to decide who is and who is not too fat to receive government healthcare benefits. Under a new law signed by Obama our medical records will include our height and weight and our Body Mass Index (BMI) to determine if we are obese by government standards.

BMI will be part of our permanent electronic health record and will be available for inspection “with appropriate security measures--on a national exchange.” In other words a clerk (union member of course) who was hired because he or she was otherwise unemployable could look at our private medical records and stamp “LARD ASS” on the folder jacket.

This change won’t happen right away. These things never happen overnight. The plan aims to have all of this in place by 2014 in time for the Death Panels to use BMI to ration health care made scarce by Obama’s Socialized medicine scheme.

Cloaked in the official sounding name of “electronic health records” and hidden in the 2009 economic stimulus law, this plot requires health care providers to practice what these newspeak artists call “meaningful use” of electronic records.

In order words your doctor or any hospital ….., you go to, will be required to establish a BMI for you so it can be used in determining your future.

It takes one to know one

Under these regulations we could have someone like the corpulent current Surgeon General Regina Brown who seems to stuff a lot of woman into her fancy uniform, measuring our waist and lecturing us about those extra helpings of mashed potatoes.

Presumably with a straight face, General Brown explained the need for such paternalism by saying “BMI……

Sounds like some kind of “profiling” to me. The commie’ gubmint ‘RATS can’t ask to see your “peppers” but they can demand to know your height and weight. America! You are one sick puppy if you let the Kenyan and his ‘RATS get away with this nonsense. What ever happened to the old “stay out of my vagina” crowd anyway? Now, the government not only wants their vagina, it wants their whole damn body and not a word is being said.

Not only will they tell you that you are too fat, but they will be WRONG. BMI is not even accurate.

Just like Social Security info, they can check out your entire employment history. No need to send in a Resume. They (potential employers) already know everything about you.

They now have full access to your banking habits, spending history and financial profile.

Big Brother has been born and is now fully awake.

OK — now, in addition to requesting plastic bags at markets, searching out REAL light bulbs, and adding TSP to my d/w detergent, I will have to make a point to eat Twinkies.

Molon labe. My statements may be small, but they are very satisfying.

Yeah. I can’t wait until they deny Van Deisel care because he’s obese.

A government obsessed with all things race. Eugenics and “body type” indicators. How far off are the work detail selections and “showers”?

Most of the welfare democrats are obese because they're slackers. Wait until they find out what they voted for. They're going to be furious. No more 24/7 fast food. (Only the working people are suppose to suffer, because the welfare recipients are "victims.")

Even worse for them - if the Tea Party supporters decide to all starve the beast in great numbers, there won't be enough tax money to pay for all those wonderful welfare freebies. Social programs will have to be cut.

Apparently, every running back, wide receiver, and defensive back in the NFL is overweight, and some are obese.

They say a people that doesn’t know history is doomed to repeat it. People have been vilifying the Nazis without even knowing the justifications they used for their evil. People think it’s a no-no to label somebody as a Nazi today, and the liberals label folks like Rush a “Nazi” because all they know about Nazis is that they are the “bad guys”. They are too ignorant to know that the same foundations and rationale that got Hitler where he ended is putting them in the same moral position as him.

It was all to preserve the earth and to serve the betterment of mankind. The ends justified the means.

Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was in league with the Nazi eugenicists and told them that they weren’t going to get anywhere because they weren’t subtle enough. She said that if you get charismatic Black preachers to tell Blacks and moochers that you’re doing them a favor by allowing them to kill their offspring they will commit the genocide for you - and, I would add, all the while re-electing you and giving you a base of power. The gullible, uninformed, and dependent people of the world are easily bought - and too stupid to know that they are useful idiots for the unscrupulous.

The Cloward-Piven Plan was all about making sure that this class of people grew exponentially until the intelligent, informed voters couldn’t out-vote them and the productive, independent workers could no longer support the moochers. That would cause the democratic republic to fail and the free market to fail.

So here we are. That’s how we got here.

And it’s all to preserve the earth and better the fate of mankind. (spit)

They will soon eliminate the distraction and unneeded waste of time of free elections.

MaObama is all we need for our supreme Premier and ruler.

Thanks for the chart! According to this, I’m not fat, I’m just 6 inches too short for my weight.
