Memo Purportedly Urges Dems to Keep Quiet on Critical Health Care Topics
Fox News ^ | March 19, 2010 | Maxim Lott

Posted on 03/19/2010 9:41:39 PM PDT by JohnRLott

As the leadership in the House tries to persuade fence-straddling Democrats to push health care reform over the finish line, a "talking points" memo is being widely circulated in Washington that purports to show that those same leaders and the Obama administration are secretly planning to push for an increase in Medicare payments -- an increase that would alter the cost of the bill.

The "From" line of the memo is scratched out, and Democrats emphatically deny sending it. A spokeswoman for House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer described it as "suspicious." . . .

But the congressional staffer who leaked the document to FoxNews.com said that it illustrates that the Democrats are worried about aspects of the health care debate and are trying to conceal them.

If the memo is authentic, it shows Democratic leadership instructing staffers not to allow the congressmen they represent to talk publicly about the details of the Congressional Budget Office's analysis of the health care reform bill. It also acknowledges that Congress and the administration will push for "doc fix" next spring -- which would increase Medicare payments to doctors above those currently planned at the cost of $371 billion over 10 years. . . .

This is the classic case of the gold plated rust ball. Dems are spending a lot of time, energy and money to keep the gold plating from falling off, exposing the rotted core.

Subject: Analyzing Healthcare Bill....Wordings and their INTENTION...

Page 425 Lines 22-25, 426 Lines 1-3: The Govt provides an “approved” list of end-of-life resources; guiding you in death. (Also called ‘assisted suicide.’)(Sounds like Soylent Green to me.)

Page 429 Lines 1-9: An “advanced-care planning consultant” will be used frequently as a patient’s health deteriorates.

Every American voting in this November 2010 elections should know how their Senators and members of the United States House of Representatives voted on their behalf either for or against Health Care Reform and vote in November accordingly.

To everyone:

Don’t worry.

It is only 2309+ pages.

Really? That alone should kill it.

Add in the fact that Congress exempted themselves. That alone should kill it!

;Add in the 16,000 new IRS agents required to implement it, and that they can and will get into your bank account and take out the money that they want. That alone should kill it.

Add in the 200,000 new regulations and the 194 new government agencies -—and 160,000 more bureaucrats required. That alone should kill it.

Add in the immorality and unconstitutionality of mandating by government decree a purchase. That alone should kill it.

Add in the financial chicanery of double counting $500B in Medicare cuts, assumed Medicare savings (which haven’t happened in 40 years), a $250B doctor fix not counted in the preliminary estimate (since it is in a separate bill), and billions more that have to do with the student loans now part of the package, etc.

This “Won’t cost ONE DIME. PERIOD” lie that now will cost at least 1 Trillion and probably $2T, $3T or more. That alone should kill it.

Add in that costs won’t go down. Nor will the price curve be bent down. That alone should kill it.

Add in that people used to justify pro-choice stands by stating a woman should have full control over her own body, but now everybody (except the Amish and Federal Employees) will have the government in control of their health. (No trans fats. No riding without a helmet, etc.) That alone should kill it.

Add in that a third of the doctors will leave the medical business and 30 million more patients will be added in: A recipe for rationing and extreme waiting times. That alone should kill it.

Add in that socialize medicine has failed or is failing everywhere: Canada, UK, Massachusetts, Medicare. Canadian government officials currently come to the US for timely care. In the future we may have to go to Mexico or Asia. That alone should kill it.

Add in that we’ll pay 10 years of taxes to pay for only 4 years of coverage. That alone should kill it.

Add in the $5B bailout each for unions in Michigan and Massachusetts and special deals for Florida, Nebraska, Oregon longshoremen, pork pork pork. Oink. That alone should kill it.

Add in that it has to be ‘deemed’ to be passed instead of voted on. The President says have courage. This is a cowardly way to legislate. Let’s ‘deem’ them out of office. That alone should kill it.


And there is more -— please add!!!

The fact that Congress will be forcing some people into involuntary contracts for something they do not want, is unConstitutional, not to mention something that violates thousands of years of contract law. Namely that forcing people to enter into contracts they do not want by coercion and/or under duress, make those contracts null and void.

The fact that Congress has no Constitutional authority to compel anyone to buy anything.

These people want to bring about a revolution. They want to destroy this country and they are pulling out all the stops. They are bankrupting us, they are wasting our money on bs projects like windmills, ethanol and train projects while letting roads and bridges almost everyone use go to hell, they are taking over banks and heavy industries, they want to take over healthcare and determine what we can and can’t have, they are wasting money on public non-education/indoctrination systems keeping people from real knowledge and wasting time on self esteem and sex practices.

They want to rip this country apart. It’s totally on purpose. This is deliberate. Nobody’s this stupid. They know the time is short, they want it to come about before the 2010 elections so they can suspend the elections and stay in power through whatever ‘crisis’ or crises they false-flag op decide to do.

Who gives a damn if it is dubious or not?

If it is fake, then the liberals are getting a taste of their own medicine. The same tactics that they have been using for years.

KEEP THE CALLS UP! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE

Hold your own street protest in front of your reps local offices. Or busy street corners. Try and get the local media to cover it. Hammer the Medicare/SS issue, nothing like mad grannies and gramps.

This is from a 2007 contact list of congressional aides. Some might not be there any longer, but worth a try. The ones on the one post are senate aides, a few have bounced back, it’s worth the effort to clog up their email system along with the phones, and 1/3rd of these senators are up for re-election.

Mail must be inspected for anthrax takes 2 weeks, so if you snail mail send a post card

Contact congressional aides.

Defeat Obamacare call list: List now contains the new MAYBES culled from FR posts. Be sure to call KNOWN RINOS too.THEY ARE ANSWERING THEIR LOCAL NUMBERS

Here is one of the ones Rush gave out on the radio that I’m calling. So far it’s been busy but I’m going to burn it up till I get to tell my congress critter to vote NO!
Join me?..... 1-877-762-8762

CODE RED Contact list http://www.nrcc.org/CodeRed/targets/
Remember they are all being offered BRIBES for their votes. Ask them how much their bribe price is.

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Sunday March 21st.

Good idea from the bloggers at Hillbuzz:

http://hillbuzz.org/2010/03/17/action-items-march-17th-2010/
They offer specifics and links on how to put pressure on Dem DONORS, who have private numbers for legislators who may have taken their phones off the hook.

Congress may not want to hear from us, but they’ll listen to the money men.
Call them and fax them them instead of telling us you don’t trust them.

NEW NO’s

Jason Altmire 202-225-2565, Aliquippa, 724-378-0928, Natrona Heights, 724-226-1304 (NO)
Michael A. Arcuri (NY-24) NO
Harry Teague NM NO

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.

At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

America flooding Congress with telephone calls
Saturday, March 20, 2010 9:12:13 AM · 20 of 20
GailA to Scanian

KEEP THE CALLS UP! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE

Hold your own street protest in front of your reps local offices. Or busy street corners. Try and get the local media to cover it. Hammer the Medicare/SS issue, nothing like mad grannies and gramps.

This is from a 2007 contact list of congressional aides. Some might not be there any longer, but worth a try. The ones on the one post are senate aides, a few have bounced back, it’s worth the effort to clog up their email system along with the phones, and 1/3rd of these senators are up for re-election.

Mail must be inspected for anthrax takes 2 weeks, so if you snail mail send a post card

Contact congressional aides.

Defeat Obamacare call list: List now contains the new MAYBES culled from FR posts. Be sure to call KNOWN RINOS too.THEY ARE ANSWERING THEIR LOCAL NUMBERS

Here is one of the ones Rush gave out on the radio that I’m calling. So far it’s been busy but I’m going to burn it up till I get to tell my congress critter to vote NO!
Join me?..... 1-877-762-8762

CODE RED Contact list http://www.nrcc.org/CodeRed/targets/
Remember they are all being offered BRIBES for their votes. Ask them how much their bribe price is.

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Sunday March 21st.

Good idea from the bloggers at Hillbuzz:

http://hillbuzz.org/2010/03/17/action-items-march-17th-2010/
They offer specifics and links on how to put pressure on Dem DONORS, who have private numbers for legislators who may have taken their phones off the hook.

Congress may not want to hear from us, but they’ll listen to the money men.
Call them and fax them them instead of telling us you don’t trust them.
