Fact Checking the debate

Now that ive gloated a bit, ill get into the details....

It seems that Barack Obama doesnt understand his own healthcare law.....its not that i blame him, no one does, but if you are going to attempt to defend it, you should prolly use legal examples.

Last night Obama sited the Cleveland Clinic as a model for a successful hospital in Obamacare....the problem, its illegal under the new health care law.

So typical of liberal policy.  Write a giant, government empowering, monstrosity of a law without knowing the unintended consequences.  It does much more damage than good,....then, say you need another law to fix it....lather, rinse, repeat.  

There you have it, President Obama's chosen example of success is now illegal because of his law.

That makes sense.

How many more success stories can Obama make illegal if we give him 4 more years?

Mrs. Obama joins the fray

Using cancer as a political weapon seems icky to me.

M.O. "Ewwww, dont vote for Alec, he wants you to get cancer."

You      "But, he doesnt even know me."

M.O. "Yeah, but he hates you because his paycheck was big."

 You      "Wait....what....he's rich so he wants people to get cancer?"

M.O   "Well no, but he doesnt want you to have health care."

You        "Why not?"

M.O.    "Cause he's mean.  He doesnt want the federal government to raise taxes and borrow money from the Chinese so it can give you medicine"

 You       "Why would i want to get my medicine from the government when its bankrupt, does everything more slowly and more expensively than necessary, and is run by corrupt politicians?"

M.O.    "Yeah, but if you like him youll die.

 You         "Um....ok"


That is essentially the argument Michelle Obama has made.  Obamacare or death.  There are no other options in the universe.

Its really quite ironic when Obama's government has already started cutting back on preventive tests that catch cancer before it can kill....

These tests save lives....but they can be expensive.  Obamacare lets the government decide if your life is worth that expense.

Obamacare reduces every person's worth into dollars and cents, then a faceless bureaucrat gets to put that worth into a formula and decide if the math is favorable to the federal government.  They call these bureacrats IPAB.....so yeah, they already exist and were created by Obama's legislation.

BUT Mrs. Obama and her zero expertise says, its Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and the Republicans and their plan to open insurance policy sales to the free market and allow, you to decide what tests are worth it....its they who will cause your death via cancer.  


These type of transparent scare tactics, are all Team Obama are can muster..... their record is one of failure and broken promises.  They cannot point to accomplishments and are therefore left with Michelle Obama's big argument for this election, which is....

"He sucks worse than us!"

Yep. I know. Weak Sauce.

Obamacare already pinching pennies, cutting care Obamacare update #2

These types of stories WILL be the norm unless we pull the ultimate 180 in November and turn the USA Titanic around by electing conservatives...at this point only found in the Republican party.

You know those tests the doctor does to catch cancer early or prevent a heart attack? Yeah, too expensive, i guess. The United States Preventive Services Task Force has already recommended that tests such as PAP smears, mammograms, and prostate cancer screenings be done away with, now add EKGs.

Have you heard about this in the news? I hadnt. I imagine, most wont ever learn that their health care is now lower in quality until they find out that they are dying of cancer. Cancer that could have been caught early and treated. Not anymore. Why? So Obamacare can provide a "free" doctor visit to an unemployed 26 year old with a cold.

We have one chance for preventive medicine with America's health. Spread the word, get registered to vote, research these issues and talk to your circle of influence. We need to cut out this Obamacare cancer before it becomes institutionalized and inoperable. Republicans must win every possible House and Senate seat, and absolutely MUST take back the White House from our "you didnt build that" p-Resident. Its the only course of treatment we have.....

Obamacare: Preview of your new mandated Hell

What do you want first the bad news or the horror story?

You know what the biggest con job of this whole Obamacare situation is? Its that Health Insurance is worth anything. What good is having insurance "coverage" when there is no one providing health care. "What do you mean. Alec?" Im sure you are asking.

Well, folks, the reason health care is not and can never be a "right", is because, it is a product of someone else's work. No one owes you their sweat, labor, or attention just because you exist. When a tyrannical government suddenly takes away whats left of your freedom to make a living in a particular field, what would you do?

I knew what American doctors would do, because its happened everywhere else they were forced to become slaves of the government, but here is your confirmation.

83% of doctors are now considering quitting. I can hear many more screeching the brakes as they swerve around med school to seek other vocations.

So, tell me, Obamacare suckers, where you going to go with your handy dandy new "coverage" when 5/6ths of the MDs disappear. How bout when the next generation of family docs, specialists, and nurses never show up?

Yep, you are now going to be forced to pay a giant tax for "health insurance" you will never get.....I shouldnt say never....someone may show up eventually, if your lucky.

Then again, maybe not until its too late.


Thats right. You may die of thirst waiting for care.....BUT GOSH DARN IT, you will have "coverage".

This whole situation is sickening.

The horror show is just beginning.

We have one shot left to avoid the depths of this socialist misery.

We must elect Mitt Romney President and give him Republican majorities in the House and Senate. Allow them to repeal this monster before it starts to kill.

Democrats will not help turn this runaway freight train around, in fact, they are dropping the hammer on the accelerator in hopes you will be too apathetic or uninformed to pay attention before its too late.

This is the last off ramp before the cliff......seriously.

Holy frakkin' crap....socialized medicine in Belgium causing nurses to murder patients.

This is unbelievable but totally predictable in a system that has failed every single time it has been implemented. When the money runs out the politicians are too greedy and selfish to give up their power so they start to cut corners to keep the house of cards standing....one of those corners....killing the elderly in order to save money.

Call it rationing life, call it euthanasia, its murder to kill someone who doesnt want to die. Doing it to save a failed health care system money, is evil in the most sinister way.

Just remember, that is the road they have put us on in America. Obamacare will necessarily force rationing and cost cutting measures that will make saving money more important than saving lives.

Does a country run by Democrats scare you yet?

Great Britain to cut health care services to save money

Thats called rationing and it causes suffering and sometimes premature death. Socialized medicine (like what we they just passed here) is a nightmare for the sick. Imagine having to wade through 100 pages of forms and 8 different bureaucrats to have a simple knee operation....its coming. Why? Because the longer they can delay your treatment the more money the government saves for themselves, and that is the only concern when the politicians control health care.....money.

You stupid stupid liberals. I seriously hope you are the ones suffering while waiting around for a much needed operation, cause if its me, im going to redefine surly on your asses. Unbelievable levels of idiocy. Screw the facts, and history, and even the current circumstances in Canada and Britain and 10 other countries, liberals want control of health care so they took it. Well, I got two fingers you can have.

Happy Saturday.

Government run health care nightmare # 3826

The government has a horrible record running health care in every other country on Earth.... why people want to give them this kind of power and control here is beyond all logic.

This kind of horrific mistake will soon be commonplace in America.

clipped from news.bbc.co.uk Organs 'removed for transplant without consent' Organs may have been removed from deceased people without their consent after a data-handling error by the NHS. The blunder meant 800,000 people on the UK donor register may have had their wishes about the use of organs for transplant wrongly recorded. The Sunday Telegraph reported that 45 of them have now died - and 20 families let organs of relatives be taken based on incorrectly stored information. But the details of many donors' preferences were accidentally deleted in 1999. Joyce Robins of pressure group Patient Concern told the Sunday Telegraph: "This government has got an absolutely dreadful record when it comes to data, but it is horrific that such sensitive details were handled in such a careless way."

In a word...."Duh"

If you understand the end goals of the progressives its obvious this is what they want. Drive insurance companies out of business and then they are "forced" to take over with a government option and eventually single payer Cubacare. So transparent yet unnoticed by much of America.

Prediction of the day:
The minute the first complaint about Obamacare comes in, Democrats will claim its because they didnt get everything they wanted and blame the bill being incomplete, not the historically proven failure that is socialized medicine.

Thanks again Hot Air.

clipped from hotair.com Video: Will ObamaCare drive businesses out of providing health insurance? In a word, yes, and that’s not just me talking. Last night, CBS did a perspective on how ObamaCare’s mandates and tax incentives will impact small businesses, which Democrats insist will see benefits from the ObamaCare largesse. The only problem is that the system actually incentivizes businesses to pay penalties and throw their employees into the government-run exchanges:

clipped from www.weeklystandard.com Special Editorial: Repeal A one-word agenda for Republicans. The editors of National Review sensibly counsel conservatives, in the wake of last night’s victory for Obamacare: “‘Nil desperandum’--never despair.” I agree, though I’m more inclined to the mock-Latin motto of the Harvard band: “Illegitimi non carborundum”--don't let the bastards get you down. Why not? Because we can repeal it. As National Review’s editors explain (and see also the strong Wall Street Journal editorial this morning), this legislation “will increase taxes, increase premiums, and increase debt, while decreasing economic growth, job growth, and the quality of health care.” So it will--if it is allowed to go into effect. Luckily, key parts of Obamacare--especially the subsidies--don’t go into effect until 2014. So what Republicans have to do is to make the 2010 and the 2012 elections referenda on Obamacare, win those elections, and then repeal Obamacare.

The battle begins

We will need groups like the Heritage Foundation in the coming days as we fight for our freedom.

Where to start?

America lost a piece of its soul last night.

clipped from reason.com If Past is Prologue When it Comes to Guesstimating Actual Health Care Costs, Well, it Was Nice Knowing You All... Ah, Bart Stupak, ah, humanity! As health care reform lurches across the finish line like a madcap nurses-on-the-gurneys race on an episode of M*A*S*H, consider this while considering all the rosy predictions of cost-containment, deficit reduction, and the vanquishing of simple chronic halitosis via bigger government involvement with the 50 percent of health care dollars it doesn't already spend:

Yep. Another nightmare.

Unbelievable.

Socialized medicine will destroy your testicle.

Thats my new bumper sticker.

clipped from www.thesun.co.uk Docs removed wrong testicle A PATIENT was left infertile after doctors operating on his testicle removed the wrong one. The bungling medics' mistake has prompted an urgent overhaul of procedures at West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds. Details of the error surfaced this week after the hospital was forced to confess all thanks to freedom of information laws. Care at the hospital had previously been rated "good" by the Care Quality Commission.

America: Welcome to your future

Another day another nightmare tale of government run health care.

This will be someone you know very soon.

clipped from www.thesun.co.uk ‘The NHS let down Jade’ JADE Goody died after being let down by "incompetent and negligent" NHS staff, her doctor has claimed. Dr Ann Coxon slammed medics who allegedly examined Jade when her tumour was the size of a TANGERINE - but missed it. They did not realise her symptoms - which Dr Coxon said were "glaringly obvious" - pointed to cervical cancer. And NHS staff also failed to find out why Jade was not turning up for the cervical smear tests which would have revealed the killer tumour. "Jade's death was completely unnecessary and preventable. She died of neglect and of incompetence." Dr Coxon said: "An ultrasound should be able to pick up lesions just 1.2mm wide, and Jade had a tumour the size of a tangerine. It should have been blindingly obvious. "She need not have died if the medical profession had got their act together in time."

Extra Extra Read all about it

Happy Health Care Apocalypse Day all. I really have no idea whats going to happen today but im trying to prepare myself for any outcome.

Here is an excellent article summing up the spectacular FAIL that is government run health care for your light Sunday reading.

Get ready for a roller coaster ride....today could be one for the history books.

Breaking News

The Washington Post is claiming the the Democrats have dropped the "Deem and Pass" strategy for the health care bill.

Developing....

UPDATE: The story

MUST WATCH

You must watch this video. Glenn Beck talks with the treasurer of Massachusetts, where they already have government health care and its failing.

Only liberals would take a program that is an abject failure in a state and attempt to make it national law.

The more i learn about progressive Democrats the more i truly think they are mentally ill. Seriously. You just cant defend their actions with any rational thinking.

The first half of the video should be seen by every American.

The second half is a little more info on the bill and some frightening facts about its enforcement.

Share this video with friends.

Still Hope????

According to one of fav blogs, Ace of Spades, They still dont have the votes to pass Obamacare. Go over to the blog and check it out. Some positive news for your Saturday.

Lean on it, baby

This is so much awesomeness i think i just peed myself a little.

Its a "Honk to stop Obamacare" rally.





America is 85% together on this one, i dont care what their manufactured poll numbers say. In fact, those that are truly informed are 95% together. Only the insane and the communists would support whats in the Obamacare bill.


Thanks Patriot Room

Yes Democrats think Obamacare blows, too.

Most Democrats may be "persuaded" to vote for the Obamacare bill but they know that it stinks worse than a sweaty monkey locked in a closet for 3 days. Its just that to be a Democrat you have to sell your soul to the devil to get your seat in Congress. It doesnt matter what your principles are, you will vote how they tell you or be attacked, smeared, assaulted, and of course bullied.

That doesnt mean that bits of truth dont leak from them occasionally. Right Wing News has a list of 32 quotes from Democrats on Obamacare's inherent awfulness.

CHECK IT

Im not saying its over but....

It sure looks like they are giving the pro life Dems a way to vote yes. Im sure at this point Stupak and his posse just want the whole thing over with since they know they are probably losing their jobs in November anyway and being attacked by left wing nutbags 24/7 is probably causing a quality psychosis. Our only hope is that 20 hundred zillion peeps go to Washington on Saturday and put the fear of God into the human politicians in DC. Nothing will sway Satan's minions....people like Pelosi and her ilk...but maybe there are enough consciences out there to save the country.
