COMMUNISM BY INSURANCE MANDATEFebruary 15, 2012One theory for why Barack Obama pushed the contraception mandate right now is that it helps Rick Santorum. Others theorize it's because Obama is an anti-religious bigot with a left-wing agenda. Reasonable minds can disagree on this.
But it may end up helping Mitt Romney by reminding people that the "individual mandate" is the least of the problems with ObamaCare. (The "individual mandate" is simply the legal argument for why ObamaCare is unconstitutional in a country that has accepted Social Security and Medicare as constitutional.)
This isn't a Catholic issue or even a religious issue. Conservatives are falling into the Democrats' trap by denouncing it as such. It's a freedom issue. (Or, as Democrats call it, "the F-word.")
If liberals like it, it's subsidized; if they don't, it's prohibited. And now they can impose their left-wing authoritarianism on the entire country by calling their mandates and prohibitions "insurance."
Liberal fundamentalists say: I don't see why anyone needs to hunt; I don't know why anyone needs to eat meat; I don't see why anyone needs to bathe every day; I don't know why anyone minds looking at urine in a low-flow toilet; I don't know why anyone needs an incandescent light bulb ...
Screw you, liberals. I don't know why anyone needs an abortion, free contraception, crap-ass "art" with photos of vaginas on the Virgin Mary, non-farming farmers or a $1 million pension for Anthony Weiner.
But I'm forced to subsidize all of that.
And now we're all going to be forced to subsidize the entire wish list of the Berkeley City Council, recast as "health insurance."
Insurance is not supposed to be for normal expenses in the ordinary course of events, such as multivitamins, house painting or oil changes. Insurance is for unexpected catastrophes: fires, accidents, cancer.
Ann is in the hunt for those coveted 'independents'. And she thinks that Romney can seduce them away from Obama. (With her help of course by slapping down those 'right wingers' that made her 'rich'.) She has been 'bain-washed'.
I’m done with Ann Coulter. I will NOT read any more of her books or columns. She can go to hell.
Dymo labels! Ann #1 and Ann #2!
The old Ann Coulter would never have constructed this sentence: “The ‘individual mandate’ is simply the legal argument for why ObamaCare is unconstitutional in a country that has accepted Social Security and Medicare as constitutional.” We all know how intellectually dishonest this is. Also I am insulted she thinks we are too stupid to see through the smokescreen.
Ann fell in love with Romney in 2007.
There are so many who despise me... the list grows ever on.....
Well I know she supported him, but she did not trash the 'right wing' that made her rich then. I gave Ann and her choice in boyfriends a wide birth through the years, but when she got uppity about Sarah and Sarah's fans, Ann made it personal. I think too much of Bill Mahr's (sp) thought process rubbed off on Ann and so trying to get back to the middle she went and got herself 'bain-washed'.
Ann Coulter: “Three Cheers for Romneycare”
Ann Coulter: “If Chris Christie isn’t the nominee, we’ll get Romney and we’ll lose.”
Who cares what this self-serving idiot says?
