Meet Tom Waschura, Californian, father of two oh, and right: Obama supporter. Just got a letter from his healthcare provider telling him that his private health insurance just went up by ten grand a year:
I was laughing at Boehner until the mail came today, Waschura said, referring to House Speaker John Boehner, who is leading the Republican charge to defund Obamacare.
I really dont like the Republican tactics, but at least now I can understand why they are so pissed about this. When you take $10,000 out of my familys pocket each year, thats otherwise disposable income or retirement savings that will not be going into our local economy.
Let me tell you a secret: we dont need people like Mr. Waschura to love us. We just need people like him to vote their class interests, to quote the Marxists who unaccountably confidently expect this rotating disaster of a health care rationing system to fuel public outcry for socialized medicine. They dont have to vote Republican forever, you know. Well be happy if they vote Republican just enough to allow the party to kill this thing. With that in mind, let me just be the first to assure Mr. Waschura that his hope that the rates will be adjusted down in a few years is only half-justified: left unchecked, they will be adjusted. Only upwards. The Democrats always expected and planned that Obamacare would be funded by raiding the incomes of as many people as possible; making the insurance companies the mechanism for jacking up premiums was the only way to get the insurance companies on-board.

“The Prisoners in the Gulags cried when Stalin died.”
I didn’t know that - so I went and searched around and found this...
It’s frightening how malleable human beings can be under the power of propaganda and brainwashing.
Which leads me to conclude that, by far, the first amendment and specifically free speech and a free press is our most important freedom.
I expect 1/2 the retards voting for the RATs to believe it, and the other half will stay home
in the next election. Wait until they discover the other lies their precious RATs have been telling them.
I guess that is like the abused wife who stays with her husband.
Not me. (Not that I am an abused wife, but no way would I stay with someone to mourn for someone who abused me)
I forgot about that part. Oh man are people who voted RAT going to be happy.
And now that those happy go lucky college voters are Grads they'll get to see
the real world from a reality standpoint.
The truth has been a casualty in this political climate.
The dems have a brilliance, and Mr. Stompyfoot is the best, about projecting blame, and onto the republicans, who are trying to run their own game, but, as the decent people party, are not good at it at all.
And college kids are blamed, despised and completely abused.
Their parents are neglecting them wholesale, like a lot of day care dumping post abortive adolescents who cannot teach them right from wrong any better than they can manage money.
They are emerging from college with 20 G in debt before they are old enough to make a decision about buying a beer.
During the Viet Nam War, the voting age was switched to 18 from 21.
We can despise them all we want, but I certainly don’t get it.
We are strapping them with all of this debt, killing 1.3 million of them per year in abortion mills, allowing them to go to college to drink for four years,a nd emerge into an unemployment vacuum of way above 19% and just like the voting age, slapping all sorts of weird age limits, like 26 years old for adulthood in health insurance.
Forget it. They are not going to blame Harry Reid Or BO. They are going to blame the entire generation, the way we blame them.
They are going to feel as devoted to the parent they have in a nursing home as that parent felt toward them at six weeks old tossing them into a day care center.

Likewise public education, which got us here.

True, and they are the ones who volunteered for Obama even before they were old enough to vote.
True, and they learned it was cool to hate old people like John McCain, because, well, he was old.
True, and they are being told they must sign up for the good of the country--ObamaCare only works if the young and healthy sign up and pay six times what health insurance would have cost them in the pre-ObamaCare era. Just don't tell them they have to pay more so the old can pay less.
True, and they are the ones who have been raised in propaganda, tempered in agitprop, and fed a steady diet of Stewart and Colbert. Anything wrong is the fault of the Republicans. Anything that does not work is the fault of the Republicans.
As for the abortion mills, they are the ones who insist on free abortions in ObamaCare. The guys call themselves "Bro-Choice", and actually write blogs on how abortion should be free, otherwise "casual sex outside of relationships becomes far more difficult to come by."
Sorry, as a society, we are reaping what we sowed. Previous generations had to do chores to earn an allowance. Previous generations worked part-time jobs as teenagers to pay for gas and dates. Previous generations worked part-time jobs in college to help pay for their crappy cinder-block studio apartment. Previous generations did not "celebrate" a Little League loss with pizza and pitchers of soda after the game.
You are worried they will blame us? They already do. Maybe they should blame us, but not for what they think they should blame us for.
And on that note, and oldie but a goodie:
I did the same. It was a bit painful for my wife at first, who would rather have had civilty with her “friends”, than to stand on principle, but she did come around, eventually.
Leftists are not invited to my homestead.....nor are they welcome.
“Theyll be just like the Japanese women throwing their children off cliffs rather than hand them over to the American Devils.”
Yes, they certainly will. Note also that oppressed people, even those in chains, will often love their oppressors even more fervently than if they were free. It is a sad fact of human psychology. I occasionally relate this to the use of abortion as a leftist recruiting tactic. If you can get a young, anxious girl to commit a heinous act, she will be a fervent supporter of those who legitimize the act. She depends on them to shield her from the thought she might be a “bad person”. And that, dear friends, lies at the heart of the leftists’ religious adoration for the sacrament of abortion. It is essential to protecting their fragile mental health.

That makes sense
Thanks for the bill whittle
I am not afraid of young people blaming anyone. I am pointing out that shifts in thinking occur. It is NOT their fault that our culture is the way it is
And the culture will change. Abortion will stop. Legalized abortion is against natural law.
A generation coming up will se that. They will despise us as we do slave owners
Being fearful of that has nothing to do with anything. It will happen
We don’t like Hitler and his people We have killed 53 million and there is no limit
We might through drug, sex and TV addiction be able to time out the truth. But counting on succeeding generations to shift blame like they are as prideful and ignorant as we are is myopic
They will get nothing out of 25% social security they pay out of their checks
They are to be expected to take care of this generation when we get old after we birth controlled and aborted them out of about 300 million of their peers, carted them off to day care, leaving them loveless for most of their day as infants for the sake ofoney. And we expect their world to be like this one ?
And we want to blame them for Obama
No The only reason they vote is that adults took advantage of them in the Viet Nam war. During WWII they could trust adults to decide well on leaders
Leaders are chosen now based on what can this guy give me. Not the country
Young people are being given a very very bad deal. What each adult has done to fix it will be important as to how they are treated when they are in need along with tens and hundreds of millions of other old people and a few young people with no spouse, children, no family and a lousy job and all this debt from the dems, our selfishness, tens of thousands of college debt no health care - no doctors, no medical breakthroughs and out of control cost.
People can mumble all day in Alzheimer’s stupor how these people are at fault. But their incentive to make things nice for us will be inverse proportional to how we treated them. They’ll be the ones with the power
We found the quality of life was improved by not having them around....liberals are very angry people!!!

“That makes sense”
There is a wealth of research that supports the relationship of “once an action is taken” then the person’s attitude will conform to justify that action. It is most often associated with the work of a researcher named Festinger back in the 1950s (about 1954).
The mere fact that quotes from some ordinary citizens dissatisfied with Obamacare appeared in an MSM organ and were cited on Rush's show should be considered as a modest victory for our side of the debate. Up until now, such stories have been pretty much banned by the MSM.
I agree.
Good news. It does happen, sometimes.
