"Suzanne", a female caller to Mark Levin's show on June 25th, revealed the ominous secret of the Democrat health care reform effort.
"I want to tell you that last week I attended a conference on health care reform sponsored by La Raza. And I will tell you that what they had to say, Mark, is scarier than anything that's been said so far on the health care plan.
The kind of comments that were made and the notes that I took... they started the conference out by saying "America does not need health care reform, but Latino immigrants need health care reform."
And someone from Menendez' office [Ed.: Sen. Robert Menendez, D-NJ] promised that he would make sure that "the useless barriers of citizenship would not be in this bill" and that he would make sure that they would use keywords like "streamline"...
It was La Raza, the Childrens Defense Fund and Senator Menendez from New Jersey, a representative from his office...
...Yes [they said they would get free health care for illegal aliens], these are my notes, Mark. They actually got up and said "Latino children need health care more than whites". And then they would say things like "you must go out into your communities, use words like 'streamline', use phrases like 'all workers' and 'all families'," because they said -- and I quote -- "If the American people find out that this bill is about giving health care to non-citizens, they will rise up against it."
...One of the quotes they said was, "We want to make sure we take care of barriers like verification, but we can streamline programs to the more affluent" and, quote, "Useless treatments for the elderly can be gone because we don't need to spend money for people who are going to die anyway."
That's a direct quote from that meeting. They also said, "We are very concerned there will be an effort to include" the illegal immigrants in this argument, so "we must make sure that we focus this" to the American people that it's looking like we want "health care for everyone".
And they also said that 75% of the children who will be picked up in this will be non-citizens and that 44% of the uninsured are non-citizens and they can't possibly allow the American people to know this." [Ed: Oops!]
Menendez' office said that he's going to make sure that "a family of four that makes $66,000 a year or less will pay nothing at all for the new health care. And he was the one who said he was going to get rid of specifics like "citizenship status" and focus on, quote, "equity for all workers".
And he said he's going to make sure that the Latino immigrants are the focus of the health care reform.
And La Raza said if they get this, they don't even care about amnesty, because they've fixed it so that one family member can apply for all extended family members. And... Mark, if you think we have a problem with illegal immigration now, wait 'til you see the borders when this thing gets passed."
"If the American people found out?"
Gee, what a surprise. A group that preaches racial superiority and divisiveness wants to enact a stealth illegal immigration bill -- not dissimilar to chain migration. The bill will reward illegal immigration to the direct detriment of all American taxpayers and especially the elderly.
Kind of puts Judge Sotomayor's membership in La Raza in a new light, doesn't it?
Groups like La Raza encourage the Balkanization of America. They promote mutually hostile political groups that do not form a "melting pot", that do not utilize a common language, and that do not share the principles of America's founding.
Fifty years from now, if La Raza gets its way, America will look more like Yugoslavia in 1993 than America.

Action: Contact Senator Robert Menendez at 202 224-4744, 973 645-3030 and 856 757-5353 and politely tell him we know what he's up to with this health care bill, that illegal immigration is not tolerated by the citizens of New Jersey, and that we will expose him -- as the anti-American traitor that he is -- to the public.
As for those who belong to or support either La Raza or The Children's Defense Fund, I would strongly encourage you to drop your membership and support. The racial divisiveness promoted by these outrageous groups is antithetical to America's civil society.
It's time to politically punish these cretins who are out to dismantle our country.
Update: A press release issued by La Raza on 6/15 mirrors the caller's report:
As our nation’s leaders consider health care reform in the coming weeks, NCLR (National Council of La Raza), the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, strongly urges President Obama and Congress to make every effort to ensure that health care reform reaches all communities. No single community stands to gain as much from this important debate as Latinos. In the U.S., one out of every three uninsured persons and roughly 40% of all uninsured children are Latino. NCLR stands for health care reform that makes coverage affordable and accessible for everyone—all families and all children.
..."This debate should be about health care for all, and setting the nation on a pathway to future health and well-being. Adding layers of immigrant verification and bureaucratic red tape to a new health care system would guarantee that millions of citizen children are effectively barred from accessing preventive care and would raise the cost of health care... we are extremely concerned that some view health reform as a way to scapegoat immigrants... Making health care easier to use and accessible for all workers and children is simple common sense."
The AARP is only slightly about the elderly and retired. It is mostly about Marxism and Liberalism, and whatever leftist ism they can support.
Absolutely Outrageous! and Its exactly what Menendez does and follows his Anti-American Behavior and Dispicable Actions!
I agree.This is a bad movie happening for real though.
We need people in offices that will do the politically incorrect things we need done to fix this. We need to make it so hard on them here that they will choose to self deport.
That’s why my GF from canada is pissed off about the illegals...
She had to wait on line like everyone else for 5 years AFTER submitting her papers and had to jump through hoops like blood extraction, Federal police reports for the past 10 years etc. She has no love for them and is unfair for other immigrants who are skilled and well-educated from her country who followed the rules yet are bungled up with these losers...
I'm sorry to say this, but it ‘feels’ to me that the American public is so full of PC and ‘guilt’ that pretty much nothing short of torture will sway them to fight back. It's as though the entire country is on narcotics and are so laissez faire that even another 9-11 wouldn't have enough of an effect. Years of being sold the idea that we are racist and bad, that we are responsible for suffering all around the globe, and that the liberal position is the compassionate and the virtuous position has left us without any national pride or national will. I know this is how the left wants us to feel — hopeless — but it's very hard not to when those who are supposed to tell the truth and keep the populace informed about those things that are a threat to our way of life just obscure and propagandize (i.e. the MSM). I have a long night of work ahead of me, so I'm not in a particularly upbeat mood, but this is how it ‘feels’ to me at this point.
Yea, they aren’t racist at all. Bastards.
We'll see if that tendency has been beaten out of us.
Doesn’t surprise me.
I have days where I go back and forth with that sentiment. I have days where I think we will wake up and days where I feel like you do.
Illegals already get free health care. The 0 solution will make it easier for them. 0 has an anti colonial attitude towards whites in the Southwest. Providing health care for Mexico will help him realize his vision of a Southwest that is redistributed to ancestors of the Mexicans it was stolen from when the Army of The West liberated the peons. No longer will descendants of Aztecs have to look across the border to Mexico to see the utopia that awaits them here. 0 will transform the Southwest like Mugabe has transformed Rhodesia into Zimbabwe.
“Hmmmm...the thought of a Nationwide Hoppes #9 wipedown is starting to sound more appealing...and likely.”
That’s a fact.
That may work in Cali, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado, but I have a real feeling things here in Texas would get testy quick.
“We need to recover this country from the Marxists slavers.”
So let’s get the show on the road.
I’ve been dropping hints here for a while. Nothing new here. When O says “ALL Americans,” this is code for illegals, and he is effectively purchasing his second term.
Bush, McCain and Graham would agree with Menendez’s positions.
Anyone could see the handwriting. If this monstrosity of health care which is just for illegals anyway paid for by the taxpayers so that the illegals will vote RATS, the immigration reform would be next to give citizenship to all these illegals with freebies all the way courtesy of the US taxpayers. However, it puts a nasty of the horrible issue when someone is actually coming out and saying so.
Bump - for forwarding to Sen Menendez.......
So stay in your OWN countries and get health care THERE.
"the useless barriers of citizenship ..."
Frightening words.
..."This debate should be about health care for all, and setting the nation on a pathway to future health and well-being. Adding layers of immigrant verification and bureaucratic red tape to a new health care system would guarantee that millions of citizen children are effectively barred from accessing preventive care and would raise the cost of health care... we are extremely concerned that some view health reform as a way to scapegoat immigrants... Making health care easier to use and accessible for all workers and children is simple common sense."
Leftists have a tendency to use children as shields.
