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

Obama thinks our Constitution is not relevant today and that we need a new and more up to date constitution...one with more emphasis on social justice. >:-}

provide the funding to pay for the mandates.

How many states are going to have to deal with unfunded mandates that far exceed $50 million dollars and into the tens of billions of dollars each year and pertain to a host of services that will have to be funded by the federal gov’t under ObamaCare?

~With the states saying CON Care will break them & they just can’t afford it, talk about the BO power grab!

Top Level Congressional Staffers get "special deal" in the health care reform bill Sen. Jon Kyl went ON THE RECORD

We know now that Stupak was lying all along about not voting for a health care bill that would fund abortions. We know he announced nearly three quarters of a million bucks for some local airports two days prior to his sellout vote. And now we know that the “Stupak 11″ received a total of almost $5 billion dollars in pork just after their sellout vote.

Perfect Paulie the Mascot for the States that Say "No" To Health Care CON Reform

10th Amendment. It reads: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

In Wisconsin, Governor Jim Doyle (D) - and huge Obamautomaton - has declined to approve the Attorney General's wish to jump on to the Individual mandate lawsuit bandwagon across the country, which is out to litigate the constitutionality of the health care bill. If there was nothing for Doyle to worry about, why take such a publicly partisan stance?

Now we have this in Pennsylvania
