Obamacare Is Dead and Here's Why [Obamacare Ongoing Thread]
Town Hall ^ | 1-26-10 | Robert A. Levy

Posted on 01/25/2010 11:27:02 PM PST by JustPiper

As the Massachusetts blame game unfolds, the president’s unpopular health bill leads the list. But the substantive provisions of the bill were just part of the problem. Perhaps more important, voters were appalled by how the deal unfolded.

Consider the pre-election giveaway to the labor unions. Negotiators agreed to exempt union contracts until 2018 from the tax on so-called Cadillac health-insurance plans. That backroom bargain not only outraged the voters, it also violated the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, requiring the federal government to extend equal protection of the laws to all U.S. persons. Of course, not all voters understood the constitutional nuances, but they sensed that something was very wrong; and they reacted.

I have been disturbed by the socialists for years, ever since I learned many members of Congress 'openly' joined the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America). Several years ago, the names were published on the DSA site. (since removed of course) Please post any info you have, many of you have been on this issue for many years, & if we can store it all on one thread, we have our FreeRepublic Warehouse on the enemies of the state. How DO we combat this, when it's coming at us from every angle? When the people have been asleep for decades. Please post anything you have found or accumulated. Also choose a dictator these people follow, of particular interest,those in D.C. who have been quoted with their adulation of one.

Communism- Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism-Trotskyism-Maoism- Hoxhaism-Hoxhaism-Titoism ETC

Another use place it is used:

"Live Free or Die" is the official motto of the U.S. state of New Hampshire, adopted by the state in 1945.[1] It is possibly the best-known of all state motto's, partly because it speaks to an assertive independence historically found in American political philosophy and partly because of its contrast to the milder sentiments found in other state motto's.

The phrase comes from a toast written by General John Stark on July 31, 1809. Poor health forced Stark, New Hampshire's most famous soldier of the American Revolutionary War, to decline an invitation to an anniversary reunion of the Battle of Bennington and to send his toast by letter:

Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils. The motto was enacted at the same time as the state emblem, on which it appears.

This is a nice one, too:

I have Gadsden flag and a Gadsden bumper sticker.

It really pisses off the left-wing wackos around here.

Dick Morris Is Right About Liberal Democrats Secret Plan for ObamaCare

Dick Morris has learned top Democrats will go to the House with a two-part Pelsoi deal and are planning to implement ObamaCare with the public option and destroy American heath care using "budget reconciliation" to by-pass voters.
"Senators more than House members & both more than ordinary people, lie."
Morris has revealed a two part Democratic Deal to Defraud America.
First, the House will pass the Senate ObamaCare bill and Pelosi will not allow amendments or modifications.
Second in secret behind closed doors, Reid and Pelosi have agreed in principle that changes to the Senate bill will be made to satisfy liberal House members - but only after the Senate bill is passed and signed into law by Obama.

Pelosi Declares ObamaCare War On Americans

ALERT: Far left liberal Pelosi ignored America and unleashed her new strategy for passing ObamaCare. Declare War on the GOP and Force ObamaCare on America.
Pelosi said, "We (Liberal Democrats) will go through the gate," "If the gate is closed, we will go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we will pole vault in. If that doesn't work, we will parachute in. But we are going to get health care reform passed for the American people for their own…” (GOOD?)
Pelosi said "Regardless of Massachusetts, it will happen" and Democrats are continuing to work to reconcile the House and Senate ObamaCare bills and are proceeding to force a through a process called "budget reconciliation," where they only need 51 votes to pass a bill, not 60.
Obama, Reid and Pelosi are still circling and have vowed to continue working on passing a scaled down ObamaCare bill by picking America apart with new taxes, increased healthcare costs and insurance premiums by hiding ObamaCare in future spending bills.
Translation Democrats will shove ObamaCare down every Americans throat like it or not it will happen and they are pushing it through.

Obama Blames "Last Eight Years" for Rejection of His Brand of Change

Obama and the Democrats in Congress must realize they are to blame. They were given power 14 months ago on Nov 4th, 2008 when they told us to vote for the Hope of Change. What we got instead was the Hoax of Chains. The chains of lost freedom, unemployment, reduced security and an increased national debt greater than the gross domestic product of the world.
"...as noted in the Rhodes Cook Letter no other President in the past half-century has seen his Gallup job-approval rating drop as far as Obama's has in his first year (down 21 points), and no president in that same half century has seen his approval rating go up, even as much as 1 point, between the end of his first year and the eve of his first midterm election" --Charlie Cook, Cook Political Report, January 16, 2010
Obama gives himself a B+ grade for his first year in office. The American people however in Virginia, New Jersey and just yesterday Massachusetts -- have given him an "F". Even Juan Williams of Fox News an Obama supporter gave him an incomplete and said Americans have given him a D. By all measures Obama is on track to be the worst president in American history.
He only has himself to blame for his dismal record AMERICA IS BROKE on his watch with:
Record national debt greater than the gross domestic product of the world
Government take over of the auto industry
Fannie Mae
Freddie Mac
Bailouts
Liberal policies
TARP
$700 Billion Federal Stimulus
$1.2 Trillion Federal Reserve Rescue
$6.4 Trillion Tax and Spend Budget to Redistribute Wealth
+10% Unemployment

Many of us have heard about Geert Wilders, the Dutch parliamentarian currently on trial in Holland because he criticized Islam. It’s shocking to many that you could be charged with a hate crime for expressing an opinion, but such prosecutions are not unheard of in the Western world beyond American shores. After all, most nations have nothing tantamount to our First Amendment. But could such a thing happen in the land of the (mostly) free as well?
