The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights says some little-noticed provisions in the House health care bill are racially discriminatory, and it intends to ask President Obama and Congress to rewrite sections that factor in race when awarding billions in contracts, scholarships and grants.

And these billions in racialy exclusive grants contracts and scholarships won’t cost us a penny, because government health care is FREE! Nobody pays for it.

Affirmative Action government run healthcare?

“AARP, one of the largest advocacy groups in the debate, announced a large television advertising campaign intended to counter Republicans’ claims that the bill would ration health care.”

Irony PING! esepcially given that a rep from AARP was on O’Reilly’s last night saying just the opposite.

That AARP guy on O’Reilly last night was one weasel, sitting there lying through his teeth and contradicting their own web page propaganda.

I think since the libs have gotten God out of schools (prayer), God out of gov't buildings (10 Commandments) and God out of the public square (Nativity Scene) that life in America just keeps on the decline.

Nuns and Jesuit Brothers are the answers to all of America's ills...after the libs die off (which is what the libs are waiting for of the Christians).

Everything this guy has done so far has been “payback”, de facto reparations.

Agreed.

He claimed that they were bipartisan on this issue (and yet notice what I qouted regarding their refuting Repubs on the issue of rationing) and that they would and are not for anything that has rationing in it, but as you pointed out, the guy was lying.

How can they be the answers to all of America's ills if they have died off?
