It’s one thing to propose true reform of the part(s) that are broken within our Health Care system. It is quite another to propose even more spending and a total wipe out of all that is good with the system we have, in trade for more cost (Just ask the CBO), less quality care and less choice.

Of course those that are pushing this so-called reform claim that there will be more choice, lower costs and that everyone can keep their current insurance if they are happy with it.
I wave the bullshit flag.

With the current systems limited number of medical professionals already stretched thin, how will they absorb more people? How much time, will each patient merit and who will decide that? (Maybe that’s what one of those czars are for?)
Putting a bigger burden on an already fragile medicare/medicaid system that is at it’s limits is idiotic. Not to mention chock full of fraud. Fraud that never gets taken care of so costs can be reduced, I might add. With more people ‘on the dole’ what the hell do they think will happen then? Lower costs and less fraud? I don’t think so. With the way Govt. runs things (i.e. The Postal System, Social Security) it’s sure to be one giant cluster-fuck of debt, more fraud and even more people being denied care because the system just can’t carry the financial burden of caring for so many people.

As for people being able to keep their own insurance..yeah right…We live in a profit driven (for now anyhow) society, and when business owners count pennies, they’ll find in most cases paying that so-called ‘penalty’ for not providing health insurance to their employess is cheaper than providing it, so all those folks will be forced into the public system, whether they like it or not.
It may be just business, looking out for one’s bottom line and a bigger profit, but it’s down right disgraceful. You can’t claim that you like your employees, if you throw them under the bus in that way. The Govt. knows this too, which is why (In my humble opinion) they set the penalty fine so low, as to induce employers to drop their currently provided coverage, thus giving the Govt even more control and the ability to claim high numbers of people flocking to their newly “reformed” system. What wonderful news spin that will be!

But if you’re like me and many others who do not like this “reform” being pushed up our asses and have had the courage (and the Constitutional Right) to voice your opposition, you are now called “astroturf, politcal terrorists and un-American” by some politicians and even by some so-called journalists. It seems those politicians have forgotten they are paid to serve us, We The People. They are not paid to call us names or lamblast us for speaking our minds. They work for us, damnit! They also might start reading the damn bills before they vote them into law. So much for ‘Mr. Change’ and his Administrations transparency & time given to read the bills, etc.

It is all a bunch of crap. He’s no different than any other megalomaniacal leader. He seems to believe his words are truth just by them coming out of his mouth. (and when his ass is caught in a lie, the claim is just that “he misspoke”-BULLSHIT & LIES!)
Congress seems to think that we the people are to cluseless to know what’s best for us and shouldn’t think too much for ourselves.

It’s senseless to totally scrap the whole system when only parts of it need fixed.
It’s not “broken”, like is claimed. Those pushing this “reform” merely want more control of the people and how they live.

Those that know this down deep within their guts are those that are speaking out. Those that don’t, or just blindly follow the leader and his congressional minions will surely be the last to know that they’ve been lied to. That is, if they ever take their blinders off at all.

For those folks that want to send me comments that I am a racist, or I fear change and that is why I do not like the proposed reform, you are flat out wrong.
I Do Not think we need a total reform of the health care system. I do not want someone on some panel, or congress or a Czar to make my medical choices for me. What happens to my body is up to me. It’s my choice. (Now where are all those pro-choice people…)

To those screaming that “health care is a right”…You are wrong. It’s not a right, nor is having your own home for that matter. Read the Constitution and The Bill Of Rights for yourself if you don’t believe me. Things in life are earned.
Sometimes in life, no matter what you do or how well you do it, you end up getting the shit end of the stick compared to someone elses lot in life. That doesn’t make life unjust or unfair. It’s just life. Stop wanting “Big Brother” to take care of your every damn need, and for the Govt. to “level the playing field”. Life is tough, get the fuck used to it .

Authors note: The heath care reform talk is now being called insurance reform, to demonize yet another big business in hopes that the people will blindly follow if there is someone to rally against.

Use your right to speak freely…If you don’t speak up for yourself, who will?

What is HR 669?
H.R. 669 stands for House Resolution 669 and is titled “The Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act“. It is a bill currently before Congress that if passed will change the way that the US Government classifies animal species that are not native to the United States. H.R. 669 will make it illegal to breed and sell many animals that are very common in the pet trade.

Why should you care about HR 669?
Anyone with pet fish, birds, reptiles, or small mammals will be affected by this bill. Any company selling product or services for pet fish, birds, reptiles or small mammals will be affected by this bill. Would you be impacted by “The Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act”?

* Virtually all fish in an aquarium are not native to the United States
* Most pet birds are species not native to the US
* Most reptiles kept as pets are not native to the US
* Hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and ferrets are not native to the US

I’ve come to firmly believe the only “Change” The Obama Administration is bringing to the public, is the “change” one might have left in their pocket.
If his radical socialistic/communist agenda goes through the house and senate and becomes law, we’re in for drastic changes to the country we know and love.
Changes that won’t just take money away from those who’ve earned it (and give it to those who have not.)

They will change the very root of how our country works, thrives and grows. His administrations efforts to mold the United States into his idealogical vision of a global entity isn’t just scarey, it’s unconstitutional. Of course he’s a lawyer, and we know how a lot of lawyers don’t value the constitution, but I digress…

For those who like to compare him to the “Messiah”, I say ok, but if you’re using Biblical comparisons he would be defined as The Anti-Christ. “The Antichrist is one who fulfills Biblical prophecies concerning an adversary of Christ while resembling him in a deceptive manner.”
He’s lied since he started campaigning. “No earmarks, we’ll have transparency, tax breaks for 95% of Americans”. Everything that has been passed under his watch has had earmarks. There’s been no transparency as he promised. Just plenty of behind the door meetings with no cameras allowed. The tax breaks-give me a fucking break! There are no real breaks if you’re gonna tax the hell out of our energy and take what you gave us in “tax breaks” back plus a ton more. What kind of idiots does he and his administration take us for?

As for our gun rights, he’ll let his cronies in their states back-door legislation (like he’s doing with the Fairness Doctrine), rules, taxes etc. to make owning a gun too costly. (Stock up on your supplies now, if you can find them!)

Now he and his cronies are busy trying to divert the publics attention with a ‘ supposed tiff’ between Rush Limbaugh and RNC Chairman Michael Steele.
Do they really believe folks will be so engrossed in that “tiff” that we’ll miss all the sneakiness and trickery going on in Washington D.C.?? I think not. At least not all of us.
In fact, there’s a shin-dig going on involving the AFL-CIO where V.P. Biden will be and only a few print reporters are allowed? Why you ask, because they want to pass that card check bullshit (and do away with secret ballots) behind the publics back and get a deal all ironed out before we all know wha’ts hit us. Unions can be a good thing. But more and more they’re just a profit maiking enterprise. The higher ups don’t care if what they do causes huge job losses and a slower economy as long as they get theirs.

The GOP is not faultnless in all this. A portion of them put in earmarks and there is littlle unity. Some of them are just plain mealy-mouthed when it comes to standing behind what they say-and what they say they believe in. If they truly want to be elected in droves in 2010 they’ll take out ALL their earmarks and unite as one unit. No voting for a package because you got a few goodies in it for your district.
You individuals should be ashamed of yourselves. Not only because you have lost your ideals, but because you’re chicken livered cowards.

Where are those GOP and Reagan Democrats? Have you really had your balls cut off? Are you afraid of being seen or thought of as “Politically Incorrect”? How can you sleep at night knowing full well that you’re selling your country down the river to Socialism with the next stop being Communism. You disgust me.
How can anyone have faith in those who have lost the ideals that founded this great country?
We already know the left-lleaning democrats on the hill care only about their agendas, isn’t it about time you conservatives get on the ball and grow a pair?

If He gets a second term you have only yourselves to blame…comrades…

With the election of Obama the country is going to hell faster than ever.
We’re on the fast-track to a Socialistic government fueled by his (and his cronies) ego and idealogy of wealth redistribution.
(In economics, redistribution is the transfer of income, wealth or property from some individuals to others.
One premise of redistribution is that money should be distributed to benefit the poorer members of society, and that the rich have an obligation to assist the poor. Thus, money should be redistributed from the rich to the poor, creating a more financially egalitarian society
)

It doesn’t matter to them that this country was founded on Captialism. Principles of ‘you work hard you do your best and you make something of yourself’. Not on a welfare system of ‘you work hard we’ll take the money you earned and give it to those who refuse to get off their asses and earn it for themselves’. He “claimed” to be different, to want change in Washington, but anyone with an I.Q. over 2 can see he’s the same old Tax and Spend Democrat-only worse as he has a cult-like following.

The administration is also spending your grandchildrens money even before it’s been made. It’s not enough to spend your money, but as he only cares about furthering his socialistic agenda, he’s putting all the money he can get congress to give him, into his efforts. His recent $3.5 trillion budget proposal is a great example. He rolls back tax breaks, claiming that only the richest of the rich will pay more taxes, and that 95% of Americans will get a tax break. He Lies. He’s full of complete and utter bullshit.

His tax break equals about $13.00 a week for the average working stiff. Which when coupled with just his Cap Plan on energy will more than erase that ‘tax break’. Those companies that he and his administration are targeting for higher taxes aren’t just going to say “Thank you, Mr. President.” and eat those higher costs. They’re going to pass them on down to you and me via product price increases and rising electric & gas costs. If you doubt this you are a retard and need a helmet.

Also in his budget, a 10-year, $634 billion reserve fund to help pay for the president’s proposed healthcare reforms — much of it paid for by raising taxes on those earning more than $250,000 a year. Which includes small business. Small business that provide most of the jobs in the country. Guess what’s gonna happen to a lot of those jobs when they have to pay higher taxes because they’re “Rich” according to the Obama Administration?

It’s not going to be add more employees. There will be job cuts. Economic growth will slow to a crawl if not stop altogether. Plus there aren’t a lot of details on this “heathcare system” other than it’s going to be modeled after European and Canadian systems which do not work as planned. Folks who need care will get care based on their age and how much the care costs. If you’re too old, forget about being in the front of the line. Because you’re not paying a lot of taxes (if any) so that makes your value lower thus your need for health care, lower on the list of those in line for it.

Those are just a few of the “Highlights” in that trillion dollar budget proposal. ( I didn’t even touch on the back-dooring of the “Fairness Doctrine”, his wanting to further fuck up Medicare or his wanting to throw good money after bad at the nations education system. Nor did I mention the nationalization of banks.)

Don’t you feel the change already? Isn’t your life better now that the “Messiah” has come? If not, Wait…it’ll only get worse.

So do what you can now. Stock pile your food, buy your guns and ammo, and vote in 2010 to get some of those (who have re-election bids) tax and spend idiot Dems (and those GOP members going along for the ride on earmarks) right the hell out of office.

That’s the first thought that enters my mind when I hear people say they’re voting for Barack Hussein Obama AKA Barry Soetoro. It frankly just astounds me.
“Barry”, to say the least, is dishonest.

His blatant errors in judgement (those he’s worked with, been “friendly” with or gave money to i.e ACORN, Bill Ayers, Antoin “Tony” Rezko) and his ever changing version of “facts” about himself and his political policies should raise a few if not many red flags.

He chose to hang with, be on committees with and blurp a book with a Unrepentant domestic TERRORIST, William “Bill” Ayers. (Bill Ayers contributed $200 to Obama’s re-election fund to the Illinois State Senate in April 2001, also).
When questioned about Ayers, “Barry” (or his surrogates) almost always reply with the tired old line of “only being 8 years old..” and that domestic terrorism that Ayers did was “many years ago”. Then he changed his story again to say he “though Ayers had been rehabilitated”. His story(s) and his connection to Ayers has changed and varied so much over time it’s hard to know what version he and his campaign are currently using in their sound bites.

The guts of the Ayers issue are those regarding “Barry’s” judgement. That he would associate with a known unrepentant domestic terrorist is not something to be taken lightly or someone that should hold the office of President. His willingness to accept a terrorist into his life shows bad judgement. Sure “Barry” says Ayers acts were “dispicable”, but why continue to be around that individual or accept money from them if you feel that way?
It doesn’t make sense.

Then ya got Tony Rezko, a slumlord sleazeball that “Barry” has described as a “friend”. Rezko was convicted on several counts of fraud and bribery in 2008. Rezko also helped get “Barry” a great deal on real estate, as well as donating money to “Barry’s” campaign. Doesn’t Mr. Rezko sound like a person ya want as a “friend” of the President?? I think not.
You’d think that would be enough “associations” with sleaze and impropriety for one person. But not “Barry”.
He’s got connections with ACORN too.

I’m sure you’ve heard of ACORN by now even if you watch CNN,NBC or MSNBC as your only “news” source.
ACORN is connected with Voter Registration Fraud and recently a few cases of bona fide Voter Fraud, across the United States.
They’ve years of corrupt voting and registration activity which they try to pass off onto a few ‘bad apples’ out getting registrations for cash. That might be believable if it happened a few times only. But it hasn’t. It’s happened for years.
To be repeately soiled by ‘a few bad apples’ leads the logical mind to believe that ACORN itself is at the core (pardon the pun) of these ‘few bad apples’. As a matter of fact, there have been convictions of ACORN personel in a few states. The FBI is currently investigating their activity and a few ACORN offices (those that didn’t suddenly have a theft of computers in them, that is) around the country,” coincidentally” in swing states. It has to make a person wonder if there’s any sort of connection between the fraud and that it’s cropping up in a lot of swing states.

If you ask most Liberal Democrats, there’s no connection. Even though most of the questionable registrations are pro-democrat. They even claim ACORN is the “victim” in all this and that Republicans are ‘just trying to surpress votes’ by questioning the activity surrounding ACORN.
Is it also a coincidence that “Barry” and his campaign paid $832000 to an Acorn affiliate. They initially told the Federal Election Commission that money was for “staging, sound, lighting.” Then later admitted the cash was to get out the vote. Money + questionable resgistrations + swing states = high poll numbers and damn high probablility that will equate to more votes for “Barry”.
Isn’t “Barry” looking more Presidential already?

There’s also a little reported court case involving “Barry”, the DNC and the Federal Elections Commission in Pennsylvania. It was filed by a Democrat.

BERG v. OBAMA et al
Plaintiff Philip J. Berg alleged that Defendant Barack Obama is not eligible for the Office of the President because Obama lost his U.S. citizenship when his mother married an Indonesian citizen and naturalized in Indonesia. Plaintiff further alleged that Obama followed her naturalization and failed to take an oath of allegiance when he turned 18 years old to regain his U.S. citizenship status.

Case Number: 2:2008cv04083
Filed: August 21, 2008

Court: Pennsylvania Eastern District Court
Office: Other Statutory Actions Office [ Court Info ]
County: Montgomery
Presiding Judge: HONORABLE R. BARCLAY SURRICK

It’s a case you won’t hear of on the nightly news programs. It just would not do to ’sully’ their coverage of their candidate to report information not flattering to “Barry”.

Add to all those, with his lie about taking public funding for his campaign (a pledge he signed, btw) and his remark(s) such as “they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” I thought Joe Biden was the one who made the ‘gaffes’?

The people of this country were outraged by Nixon’s activities, it would seem they should be outraged by “Barry’s”. It would also be logical that after the press and a few polititians made a big issue of both Bill Clintons drug use-though he says he didn’t inhale, and George W. Bush’s drinking and drug use, they’d think twice before voting for “Barry” after his admitted drug use.
“Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance,” “Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though.” he wrote in his 1996 memoir.
But it gets little attention. Is it now ok to drink and do drugs and run the country? Or is it only ok if you’re running under the liberal Democrat banner?? Does honesty and a judgement not matter anymore as long as you tow your party line and it’s your party that’s ahead?
Why does it take millions of dollars to run for the office of President for some while public money is good enough for others? Is that how one buys an election?

Is there now only one type of true feminist and/or real woman- Those who are militant about retaining their “right to choose”, who don’t care if you use abortion as a means of birth control just as long as you can have it done.
While, those traditional woman, woman that love being mothers, have a career or not and don’t believe in abortion or in the edict that all men are evil, are now looked down upon by mainstream media outlets as well as by extreme left leaning zealots like that whoopi person even though these woman are happy with their own choices, and a large part of the progress women have made in today’s world. If you doubt me, look at the smears and lies about Gov. Sarah Palin.

The past two years of this Presidential campaign have highlighted the greedy, the sleazy and the bias. They’ve shown the country and the world just how much a nation can be marred when those who are overly ambitious lust for power at any price.

The price will be heavy if you cast your vote for Barrack Hussein Obama aka Barry Soetoro.
Not just to the moral fabric of our country but from the taxes that will weigh down the average joe, kill small busnisses and jobs and throw money at those who don’t pay into the system. All the while the deficit is growing larger to extend the debt to generations beyond your children.

You can already feel the country tilt to the left even while you read.

Feel free to comment, but don’t whine if my bluntness hurts your feelings.
