Wonder Woman, Stop a Bullet Cold!

Dr. Alieta Eck, you’re a Wonder Woman. All of Congress is waiting for you!

Iraq. Benghazi. Lois Lerner’s emails. It seems the entire world is erupting into deception and chaos. We need a woman who can save us. Not Kathleen Sebelius. Not Lois Lerner. Not Hillary Clinton. We need Dr. Alieta Eck.

Dr. Alieta Eck is running for Congress in the state of New Jersey. She doesn’t rush to give Obama hugs when he visits Atlantic City. But she does rush to care for New Jersey’s poor, sickly and destitute.

In 2003, Eck founded Zarephath Health Center, a non-government free clinic for the poor and uninsured. Eck’s “business model” is inspired by the Gospels, specifically Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan. A man poses this question to Jesus: “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” and Jesus answers by telling the story of a generous passerby who helps a stranger who had been beaten and abandoned at the roadside. Jesus concludes: “Go and do likewise.”

Eck is a modern day Good Samaritan. She is a proven local public servant who is now aspiring to be a Congressional public servant. What a refreshing contrast to Hillary Clinton—a multi-millionaire who is undoubtedly vying for the highest “public servant” position in the land—while feigning that her past is pocked with money troubles.

Clinton has talking points. Eck is a new breed of politician: she has actions. Day after day, Eck practices what she preaches, which is a promise to: “fight every day to repeal Obamacare and replace it with a more sensible solution that leverages free market solutions to lower costs for everyone, protects choice in health care providers, and fosters innovation.” [emphasis added]

Eck understands that Obamacare is threatening entrepreneurial job growth at a time when Millennials, the middle class and the poor desperately need jobs—while failing to improve the healthcare system over all. Case in point: unless the Supreme Court intervenes, Obamacare threatens the entrepreneurial job growth of Hobby Lobby founder David Green.

Green started Hobby Lobby in his garage 40 years ago (the same place Steve Jobs started Apple!) and he now employs 16,000 full-time employees in 41 of the 50 states. He offers generous wages and benefits, including a strong health care package. He’s already caring for his employees—who freely choose to work for him, by the way. Yet President Obama expects him to pay a fine if he does not also subsidize drugs and devices that can destroy embryos such as Ella, Plan B and certain IUDs—in violation of his faith.

Green has a First Amendment right to practice his faith openly, including as a business owner and yet Obamacare requires that he take irrational steps to practice his faith, such as stripping his employees of the wonderful health care package that he currently provides. After pulling his healthcare plan, Green would also need to pay an annual fee to the federal government of $2,000 per employee.

What a waste! $2,000 per employee annually to the federal government to do what? Employ more TSA and NSA Snooper Troopers?

Eck wants to use her first-hand experience and proven track record to improve our healthcare system while also enabling entrepreneurial business owners like Green to stay in business and employ even more Americans. After all, it’s extremely hard to remain emotionally or physically healthy when you are unemployed.

If you are like most Americans, you feel frustrated with politicians on both sides of the aisle for failing to offer concrete solutions and alternatives to Obamacare. You want people with a plan. Who better to help chime in on our behalf than an actual doctor?

I surveyed close to 300 doctors and surgeons and incorporated their solutions and input for improving healthcare and eliminating Obamacare in my new book, which hits stores tomorrow, titled “Let Me Be Clear.” Many of the doctors I surveyed told me I was the first person to ever ask them for input. In other words, President Obama never took the time to ask medical professionals for input before unconstitutionally ramming Obamacare through Congress and squeaking it past the Supreme Court.

A recent Pew Research study found that roughly one third of Americans view years of “experience” in D.C. as a negative trait when assessing whether to support a politician for president.

Dr. Eck does not have D.C. “experience.” She would bring a breath of fresh air—and a major dose of common sense—to Washington. She understands that Americans are more generous than Obama gives them credit for. She understands that we can care for the poor and the disadvantaged without corrupt and mismanaged government programs running on posh websites.

Fight for our rights, Wonder Woman! Dr. Alieta Eck, our hopes are pinned on populist politicians with real world experience just like you.

The problem with true do-gooders is that some of them STILL think the government is a good agent for doing good.

If you think you are great because you want to ‘help people’ but your definition of help is always the same: A new government program - then you are not actually helping anything.

Not ready to crown her a heroine just yet but one less Dem held seat in DC is one less piece of rotten fruit in the barrel.

Some acually consider themselves “compassionate” because they favor taxing Peter to pay for the needs of Paul, even thoug they don’t lift a finger or pay a penny to help anyone on their own. It really is amazing.

Article on Alieta Eck who lost the special Senate primary to Steve Losagain, now running for Congress, NJ-12 (Rat Rush Holt Jr. is retiring), GOP got just about 1/3 of the vote in the last 2 POTUS elections.

This is the seat that “Twinkle Twinkle Kenneth Starr” Mike Pappas lost to Holt in 1998, but it’s twice been redrawn since then, getting worse each time. Under the 00 lines Holt faced a close race in 2010, if it were still ender those lines I’d be optimistic, but this is probably out of range.
