Common Sense

This 2,700 page health care bill must be worse then we know. If it was so great then why are they acting like cowards by not putting their names to it? The Progressives engineered this health care bill and they can't even get their own party to agree on it. Obama and Congress have been telling us this bill is good for us but they hide it from us. The president it acting desperate bringing in the fainting people and the sick people that will die if they don't get this bill passed. If those people existed why couldn't Obama fine some real ones dieing without care. And once this thing gets jamed down our throats we will have been addicted to the intitlement program until it can no longer exist. Just like SSI and Medicare. If we add 30 million people to free health care insurance where will we get all the doctors to treat them all? Yeh no one will die waiting for a doctor because you just gave people a new car and they want to drive it right away. This bill will be the killer and we need to stop this bill from going through or it will be too late. The left wing blogs are saying that the abortion in the bill actually help cut costs. Is that what we have become?  If they don't mind killing babies the elderly should be a breeze to kill. Our government has no right to give us our rights. Only God gives us rights if we can keep them. Governement takes rights away.

Talking Points vs. Realty

by Thomas Sowell

In a swindle that would make Bernie Madoff look like an amateur, Barack Obama has gotten a substantial segment of the population to believe that he can add millions of people to the government-insured rolls without increasing the already record-breaking federal deficit.

Those who think in terms of talking points, instead of realities, can point to the fact that the Congressional Budget Office has concurred with budget numbers that the Obama administration has presented.

Anyone who is so old-fashioned as to stop and think, instead of being swept along by rhetoric, can understand that a budget-- any budget-- is not a record of hard facts but a projection of future financial plans. A budget tells us what will happen if everything works out according to plan.

The Congressional Budget Office can only deal with the numbers that Congress supplies. Those numbers may well be consistent with each other, even if they are wholly inconsistent with anything that is likely to happen in the real world.

The Obama health care plan can be financed without increasing the federal deficit-- if the administration takes hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicare. But Medicare itself does not have enough money to pay its own way over time.

However money is juggled in the short run, the government's financial liabilities are increased by adding this huge new entitlement of government-provided insurance. The fact that these new financial liabilities can be kept out of the official federal deficit projection, by claiming that they will be paid for with money taken from Medicare, changes nothing in the real world.

I can say that I can afford to buy a Rolls Royce, without going into debt, by using my inheritance from a rich uncle. But, in the real world, the question would arise immediately whether I in fact have a rich uncle, not to mention whether this hypothetical rich uncle would be likely to leave me enough money to buy a Rolls Royce.

In politics, however, you can say all sorts of things that have no relationship with reality. If you have a mainstream media that sees no evil, hears no evil and speaks no evil-- when it comes to Barack Obama-- you can say that you will pay for a vast expansion of government-provided insurance by taking money from the Medicare budget and using other gimmicks.

Whether this administration, or any future administration, will in fact take enough money from Medicare to pay for this new massive entitlement is a question that only the future can answer, regardless of what today's budget projection says.

On paper, you can treat Medicare like the hypothetical rich uncle who is going to leave me enough money to buy a Rolls Royce. But only on paper. In real life, you can't get blood from a turnip, and you can't keep on getting money from a Medicare program that is itself running out of money.

An even more transparent gimmick is collecting money for the new Obama health care program for the first ten years but delaying the payments of its benefits for four years. By collecting money for 10 years and spending it for only 6 years, you can make the program look self-supporting, but only on paper and only in the short run.

This is a game you can play just once, during the first decade. After that, you are going to be collecting money for 10 years and paying out money for 10 years. That is when you discover that your uncle doesn't have enough money to support himself, much less leave you an inheritance to pay for a Rolls Royce.

But a postponed revelation is not part of the official federal deficit today. And that provides a talking point, in order to soothe people who take talking points seriously.

Fraud has been at the heart of this medical care takeover plan from day one. The succession of wholly arbitrary deadlines for rushing this massive legislation through, before anyone has time to read it all, serves no other purpose than to keep its specifics from being scrutinized-- or even recognized-- before it becomes a fait accompli and "the law of the land."

Would you buy a used car under these conditions, even if it was a Rolls Royce?

Obama Isn't Above Making Up A Sob Story About Natoma Casnfield

 

Do you remember the story of Natoma Canfield? Obama used her story like many other peoples stories to sell Obamacare. He said she is loosing her home because she can't afford the insurance premiums now that she has cancer. Obama is such a showman. He saved the many fainting people in the front rows of his speeches.lAs if I believe that Obama didn't plant those people now that these stories are out. I hope he doesn't use a small child to help sell his health care bill. Oh, he did did he? Is everything about this president smoke and mirrors?  Can we believe any words out of his lieing mouth? What kind of man uses dieing women,small children and lies to sell us a bill of goods we don't want?

Now here is were it turns into a soap opera. Gateway Pundit finds that Natoma isn’t the hard luck story she pretends to be.

Natoma Canfield is being cared for at one of the top cancer centers in America. She will qualify for financial aid and won’t lose her home.

FOX News reported:

Natoma Canfield, the cancer-stricken woman who has become a centerpiece of President Obama’s push for health care reform, will not lose her home over her medical bills and will probably qualify for financial aid, a top official at the Cleveland medical center treating her told FoxNews.com.

Though Canfield’s sister Connie Anderson said her sibling is afraid she’ll lose her house and Obama warned at an Ohio rally Monday that the patient is “racked with worry” about the cost of tests and treatment, she is already being screened for financial help.

Lyman Sornberger, executive director of patient financial services at the Cleveland Clinic, said “all indications” at the outset are that she will be considered for assistance.

“She may be eligible for state Medicaid … and/or she will be eligible for charity (care) of some form or type. … In my personal opinion, she will be eligible for something,” he said, adding that Canfield should not be worried about losing her home.

“Cleveland Clinic will not put a lien on her home,” he said.          

Koffee Klan Party Is More Like Therapy For Obamatards

Lee Doren does a hilarious deconstruction of the Coffee Party, mainly by letting the Klatschers talk for themselves. Sounding as though they are attending a 12-step program for grief resolution, the activists mouth banalities about agreement and democracy, but appearances can be deceptive. While posing as centrists looking for a little peace in the valley, Lee does a little research on the leaders of this nascent movement and discovers … Obama activists:

Their idea of democracy is also interesting. “Democracy isn’t supposed to be about two teams fighting … it is about [a] community of people advancing common good.” Besides the fact that we’re a representative republic (with democratic processes), the notion that democracy is all about agreement certainly has the virtue of novelty. After all, if everyone agreed on how to advance the common good, you wouldn’t need democracy.  This sounds very similar to Barack Obama’s continued insistence that people need to stop talking about health-care reform and just accept his proposal.
Besides, why does the Coffee Party need to “restore democracy in America”?  The candidate they backed won the last election, as did the party they backed for Congress.  Do the Klatschers believe that Democrats have destroyed democracy in America?  Maybe they have more in common with the Tea Party than people think!
What a bunch of crybabies. Don't they know the won? Everyone gets a trophy in ther obamatard world. How unhinged with they get if health care doesn't pass? Or if it does and we send the progressives out of Washington for decades and the Constitution.

3000% What A Great Deal or A Lie?

Obama said today that health care primiums will go down by as much as 3000%. 3000% what a great deal that is. We will actually make a boatload of money off of this Democratic scem. No wonder why no one is buying what he is selling. If health care became free it would only be 100% off. This 3000% is a great dfeal for the people that buy what this buffoon is saying. We all agreee we need health care reform. All this buffoon of a president is doing is talking about the things the Republicans and Democrats agree on. It's all the other progressive BS that we don't want. Obama is coming across as desperate in his trying to sell the same old dumb health care bill as he has for the past year. Why doesn't he sell us on the crap we don't want? He is like a car salesman telling us we need his car when all we really need is a good reliable care at a fair price. Obama just keeps telling us we need a car. No shit Obama we need a car. We don't want a Toyota that is killing people. We don't want a car that is made with slave labor either and the same is true of this health care bill. Obama is desperate and he is telling lies to push his product. And yet 69% of Americans don't want this bill. We all want a health care bill just not this one. How stupid are they that they just keep shoving this bill down our throats? We aren't the ones that don't understand. They don't understwand that this bill sucks and we don't want it. And now the Democrats feel compelled to shove this bill down our throats because if they don't they will be done and if they do they will be done. And sopmehow the Democrats will blame the Republicans for the way this bill was put together.

This Is What The Progressives Are

We Are A Republic Not A Democracy

Democrats Will Do Whatever They Want With Their New Found Power

Dems Say 'Slaughter Rule' On The Table

THEY WILL STOP AT NOTHING–

Democratic leader Rep. Chris Van Hollen admitted today on FOX News Sunday that democrats will use the unconstitutional “Slaughter Rule” to ram their pro-abortion nationalized health care bill through Congress. Democrats announced this tactic last week. They will pass the bill without voting on it. They will take over one-sixth of the US economy without even voting on it.                                                                                                                                                             Instead of the Democrats putting together a health care bill that the Blue Dogs,Republican and Progressive Democrats could all sign onto. The Progressives in the Democratic Party are playing blame games with the Republicans and trying to buy off the Blue Dog Democrats. When the Blue Dogs and the Republican party agree that this health care bill is not good for them or the American people as a whole you know the Progressives have a bad bill. The Democrats have been blaming Republics for not passing this bill when they didn't even need one Republican vote to pass the bill. You Progressives can blame the Republicans all you want. All you are doing is impowering the minority party. Dumb you. This is all about the Conservative groups getting off their behinds and contacting their Reps. It was we the people that changed the path of this bad health care bill from going through. But the Progressives in the Democrat party are willing to destroy the Blue Dogs and the Democrat party in order to get a far left Progressive bill pushed through.  If this bill goes through and it turns out to be as bad as the Blue Dog Democrats ay it is then the Republics will have a free ride to the White House and both Houses of Congress. To me that is just cutting off your nose to spit your face. This bill doesn't serve we the people. If it truely was a great bill it would have been signed and put into law by now.  This bill like all the bills this Congress and President have put before us only serves those that served the Progressives. This bill only displaces the incomes of those that didn't vote for the Democratic Party. If it doesn't serve the Blue Dogs or the Republican constituents,then who does it serve? Why doesn't this bill fix the high costs of health care? The Progressives want a public option. Why? We already have the non-profit Blue Cross. How can you get better then $0 profit when it comes to the compatition part of the bill? The liberal talking pointsw only add up for those that will get without having to give. The problem is most of us will loose to make the government bigger and the health care system even less healthy. But the Democrats don't care about we the masses. They are buying votes with this bill just like they did with the Stimulus bill.

That's The Whitest Coffee I've Ever Seen

From The Powers That Be: 

The likes of Keith Olbermann, Bill Maher, Janeane Garofalo and other pasty, whiffle-brained dingbats castigate the Tea Party movement as being nothing more than an all-white racist whine-fest featuring a bunch of crackers who just can’t stand the fact that a black guy has been elected president. There are actually many minorities involved in the Tea Party movement, but why bother the left with the facts?

Go through the large photo album from yesterday’s Coffee Parties. Say what you want, libs, but there’s an awful lot of cream in that coffee. [MORE] 

Why only white faces in this Coffee Party photo album? It seems the people that have been calling us the racists look the most like racist. This isn't another case of liberal hypocracy is it? MSNBC called the Tea Parties racist because they diodn't have "enough blacks in the Tea Party rallies", when they don't have even one person other then white as a talking head at that network. Now I'm sure they will go out and hire a token minority as to not bring too much attention to the fact that they are all white. The pictures of the Tea Parties have many blacks in them. In fact what are the odds that the progressive union SEIU found a black Tea Party member and beat the shit out of him? I think it is obvious that the left have some racial issues that they are trying to project onto us. Here are some of our TEA Party protesters the left say don't exist.Liars

 I think they were telling us what is in their heart not what is in ours. But they will hurry up and find a picture of a black person and say they are a member of the Coffee Klan Party.
