Obamacare Is Dead and Here's Why [Obamacare Ongoing Thread]
Town Hall ^ | 1-26-10 | Robert A. Levy

Posted on 01/25/2010 11:27:02 PM PST by JustPiper

As the Massachusetts blame game unfolds, the president’s unpopular health bill leads the list. But the substantive provisions of the bill were just part of the problem. Perhaps more important, voters were appalled by how the deal unfolded.

Consider the pre-election giveaway to the labor unions. Negotiators agreed to exempt union contracts until 2018 from the tax on so-called Cadillac health-insurance plans. That backroom bargain not only outraged the voters, it also violated the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, requiring the federal government to extend equal protection of the laws to all U.S. persons. Of course, not all voters understood the constitutional nuances, but they sensed that something was very wrong; and they reacted.

I have been disturbed by the socialists for years, ever since I learned many members of Congress 'openly' joined the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America). Several years ago, the names were published on the DSA site. (since removed of course) Please post any info you have, many of you have been on this issue for many years, & if we can store it all on one thread, we have our FreeRepublic Warehouse on the enemies of the state. How DO we combat this, when it's coming at us from every angle? When the people have been asleep for decades. Please post anything you have found or accumulated. Also choose a dictator these people follow, of particular interest,those in D.C. who have been quoted with their adulation of one.

Communism- Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism-Trotskyism-Maoism- Hoxhaism-Hoxhaism-Titoism ETC

Beck is betting on “immigration reform.” I just know it will be something awful. abu wants to micromanage public education as well. This is a bulldozer we are fighting. Now would be a good time for divine intervention.

Media Wrong Again: ACORN Front Group Protests in St. Louis

As I’ve written, ACORN is not dead. ACORN is not even dying. It is merely transforming itself into something else and laying low until the coast is clear.

Most of the news media has been slow to catch on to this hoax-in-progress.

So it’s not surprising that an ugly in-your-face protest of Bank of America in St. Louis, Mo., is not being reported as an ACORN action.

Of course it is an ACORN action. KMOX reports that Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE) is behind the protest.

Channeling surfing and landed on O’Reilly’s program just in time to see the *Culture Quiz*.

Questions was how long has ACORN been around? 40 years. Then BOR went on to say they are *going out of business* on April 1.

Huh!?!? Maybe they’ll take the name of another nut but will NEVER go belly up.
