Walked by a Healthcare for America Now rally in SF (Paid moobat alert)

I walked by a bunch of Liberals today in San Francsico who work for Healthcare for America Now who were also pushing Gavin Newsom for Governor of CA.

The keep parroting the Democratic party line of "big insurance" keeps us all from free healthcare...greedy CEOs...

Who funds these people? Has anyone heard of them?

I have noticed a step up in the talking points getting out among my liberal FB friends too.

Classic communist front group. It's a big myth that the communists lost the Cold War. THEY'RE BACK! From their slick web site:

"Our Steering Committee includes: ACORN, AFL-CIO, AFSCME, AFT, Americans United for Change, Campaign for America’s Future, Center for American Progress Action Fund, Campaign for Community Change, Children’s Defense Fund Action Council, Communications Workers of America, International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW), MoveOn.org, NAACP, National Council of La Raza, National Education Association, National Women’s Law Center, SEIU, UFCW, USAction, Women's Voices, Women's Vote and Working America."

Recently in LaPlata Maryland at the County Fair there was a booth set up the last day in support of ObamaCare. Protesters started hanging around and saying stop Obamacare.

Soon a group of blacks came over and they started shouting along with the other protesters to stop Obama Now.

Funny how the people who bemoan the mountains of cash in the insurance exec’s money bins have no problems with millions earned by fannie/freddie execs (including former clintonistas) while it was bleeding money.

I concur. Been my opinion for years that Reagan didn't win the Cold War, he only won the Cold Battle.

Communism in this country has been like a slow drip, although Øbama has opened up the spigot.

‘Who funds these people?

Sounds like our White House.

It makes me absolutely sick to know that these like minded types have taken over our country. The more Glenn Beck reveals, the more I learn, the angrier I get. And, like Beck has said, these same old people have been “organizing” for many, many years...they are way ahead of us....I’m not sure that there’s anything we can do now to stop the “fundamental transformation” of our country. If there is something that can actively be done, whatever it is, we’d better get to gettin before the USA becomes Venezuela. As fast as they are working, IMO, many aspects of our country won’t be recognizable by 2012.

Lots of trust fund babies- no jobs- plenty of money- stirring up trouble with a totally immature mind.

Health Reformers Targeting ‘Enemies’
Washington Times ^ | 9/22/2009 | S A Miller

Posted on Tuesday, September 22, 2009 2:30:25 PM by RushIsMyTeddyBear

The plan for a series of grass-roots demonstrations Tuesday to promote President Obama’s health care agenda calls for tightly scripted events and an “escalation” of efforts against “enemies” of reform.

Organizers insist there is no comparison to rowdy summer town hall meetings and recent “tea party” protests that have challenged White House policies.

But Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is backed by a coalition of labor unions and liberal groups including ACORN and MoveOn.org, organized the protests to target insurance companies and drafted the plan, which describes the demonstrations as part of its “insurance enemies project.”

The document, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Times, details specific talking points, tactics, props and strategies to stage the protests. It lists goals that include action that “mobilizes our base by animating existing anger about private insurers.”

The HCAN field plan dictates that each protest will include a minimum of 30 participants, target only health care insurers CIGNA, WellPoint and United Health Care and showcase what it calls “victims,” or people who have either lost insurance, can’t afford it or were denied coverage because of pre-existing medical conditions.”......

99.9% with private health coverage.

Why do these idiots cry for a lower standard of living?

To appease their guilty souls?

I recently had to do a glucose tolerance test - this involved going to the local hospital, having blood drawn and checked for sugar, then drinking a sickly sweet drink, then having more blood drawn over the next few hours. Total face time with health care professionals, maybe 10 minutes. I occupied a chair and read all morning. The hospital bill for the test was $1500.00. Insurance paid $250.00, the hospital wrote the rest off. Which of these parties was trying to control costs and which was trying to rip the system off?
