NAACP Chairwoman: Obamacare Civil Rights Issue
breitbart.com ^ | August 28, 2013 | Tony Lee

NAACP Chairwoman Roslyn Brock said Obamacare and access to affordable healthcare is "one of the most pressing civil rights issues for this generation" during her remarks on the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech on Wednesday.

She said Obamacare is the law of the land and opponents of fairness "resist our noble cause." Brock also said that "when it comes to health equity and access, courage will not skip this generation."

These poor people haven’t got a brain in their heads.

Wait until the death panel kills her Grandma.

And when there is no money to pay for it??? Or a government to enforce it? I wonder if she really believes she is immune when the whole house of cards comes tumbling down.

Everything is either racist or a civil right.

I oppose Obamacare. The NAALCP supports it. I guess that makes me racist.

I’ve never won the lottery and I think they’re discriminating against me because I don’t buy lottery tickets.

There’s no reason that money should be available only to people who gamble.

When other people’s money becomes somebody else’s “civil rights”, it’s time to shut this side show down. America has failed.

“These poor people haven’t got a brain in their heads.”

On the contrary, they know EXACTLY what they are doing. They are using the same language of political correctness that they have used all along.

“It’s a CIVIL RIGHTS ISSUE! You aren’t a RASSISS!, and against Civil Rights are you, Mr. Sheeple?” There can’t be any opposition, because any oppo is Anti-Civil Rights, and pro-Slavery.

If we had any honest media left, that wasn’t in fear for their jobs and livelihood for daring to run counter to the Current Truth, they’d call this out.

It isn’t about being poor.

Obamacare will probably benefit me more than harm me in the short term but the economic devastation that will result will harm everyone in the long term, myself included.

Let’s just cut to the chase. Anything a Democrat does or propses is the morally the same as the Civil Rights movement. Anything a Conservative says, does, or proposes is like Selma, Alabama all over again.

Does this about sum it up? What a bunch of phonies.

I’m really getting tired of the Dems and other liberals trying to make the argument that the ACA provides health care for everyone. That’s BS!

Everyone already has access to health care, even the illegal aliens and others without insurance.

The ACA is just health insurance and it’s designed to shut down non-government insurance companies so everyone has to buy into the single-payer (gov’t. only) insurance.

Hi octex!
You’re correct on every count.

Bet here is that Robyn Brock is incapable of comprehending what a "right" is, even if she could read: "Health Care is not a right".
