Obamacare Is Dead and Here's Why [Obamacare Ongoing Thread]

Town Hall ^ | 1-26-10 | Robert A. Levy

[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.

It figures. Michelle Obama stocked the White House Library with books on socialism.

Rob Port visited the White House today and took this picture in the library. (The American Socialist Movement and The Socialist Party of America)

“The recent presidential puppet GW Bush and his cronies in their eight years certainly reinforced for all of us that this criticism rings equally true for all of the government.”

This is the fruit born of populist poison: ‘Not a dime’s worth of difference.’

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

“Can we wait till 2012?”

Unless the House impeeaches and enough rat senators are willing to remove him.

“Has one President ever mentioned getting out of the UN?”

Not that I know of. I did hear that the UN forbade our marines from having bullets in their guns during the Lebanon bombing. After that fiasco, it is pretty clear that Reagan lost respect for anything the UN said and even sent Ambassador Alan Keyes to write the Mexico City Language [which did a lot to undermine the UN].

global warming’s a lie. We’re freezing here in FLA. Not this cold, this long since 1930.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

True. The last line does show Marxism:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2454242/posts?q=1&;page=261
— Complained about healthcare “Yet, the political “representatives” (thieves, liars, and self-serving scumbags is far more accurate) have endless time to sit around for year after year and debate the state of the “terrible health care problem”. It’s clear they see no crisis as long as the dead people don’t get in the way of their corporate profits rolling in.”
— Hated GW Bush “puppet” as well as IRS.
— Hated the “monsters of organized religion” and Catholic church.

“The recent presidential puppet GW Bush and his cronies in their eight years certainly reinforced for all of us that this criticism rings equally true for all of the government.”

The Clintons used to dump a lot of bad news all at once. They also liked to stretch out bad news. This smells of Clinton tactics, trying to avoid critical mass on one issue [such as the panty bomber combined with this], and at the same time, yanking us in several directions at once.

Lots of bad economic news at the same time [easilly overlooked]:

Snippet from ETL’s profile:

Did Bernardine Dohrn Mentor Michelle [Robinson] Obama at Chicago Law Firm?
“The media has been very gentle on Michelle Obama, but one blogger asks a very interesting question about Bernardine Dohrn’s possible mentoring of Michelle at Sidley Austin in Chicago, where Dohrn worked as a paralegal [her felony conviction meant she couldn’t pass the Illinois bar exam] while Michelle was an intern during summers while in law school. Michelle was later taken into the prestigious firm when she graduated from Harvard Law. Michelle in turn mentored Obama in ‘89 & they eventually married.

The MSM will never ask any questions about Dohrn & Michelle [Robinson] Obama intersecting at Sidley Austin. It would be nice if Republicans had more investigative reporters because my inquiring mind would like to know.

It might be that the Ayers-Dohrn relationship with the Obamas goes back earlier and the relationship could be much more extensive than previously reported.”
