The Blunt Amendment: My Letter to Senator Boxer


Senator Boxer,

I read your article (http://boxer.senate.gov/en/press/opeds/02082012.cfm) about your opinions on women’s health and contraception.

You frame contraception as a health matter. Without agreeing or disagreeing with that subjective assessment, wouldn’t you agree that religious objections are protected by the 1st Amendment?

Would you be ok with a “health finding” forcing taxpayers to pay for free bacon? Even if certain religions prohibit it? Even if a rigged study showed that 98% of all Jewish eaters eat bacon, would you be ok forcing Jewish people to pay for other peoples’ bacon? Even though common sense says bacon is not necessary healthcare, even if politicians say it is?

I don’t think there is any question that contraceptives are widely available. You mention that contraceptives are expensive; of course, there are cheaper alternatives, for example, abstinence.

While I appreciate that everyone is entitled to their opinions, in your duties as a public servant you represent your constituents.

This is my point, and my question. If your constituents are asking you to support the Blunt Amendment, why wouldn’t you? It doesn’t make contraception any more, or any less available.

The Contraception deception


The Contraception deception…

“If you like your plan, you will get to keep your plan!” Remember Obama promising you that about ObaMAOcare?!?!?!

Do you think Religious institutions, exercising their conscience by not having their plans include contraception and the (Morning after) Abortion pill, like their plans the way they are?!?! Obama shows how “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan” is, and always has been; as well as most everything else out of his mouth is; A LIE!

There is something else that everyone is missing here. This is a purposeful, willful, and with malice of fore-thought, a direct attempt to get Religious endeavors TO DROP THEIR PLANS causing countless more Americans to be in that “Public Option,” which was, is, and always has been, their (Liberals) goal. They are moving to complete, outright, Government controlled Socialized Medicine; ObaMAOcare was designed to do this from the outset – to destroy and move people away from Private Health Care Insurance plans to a Government option.

Time and time again, we warned people this was the plan/goal from the outset and so many just buried their head back in the sand – too lazy to pay attention and do any research for themselves, just buying into any and all lies from Liberal/Progressive Democrats about the ObaMAOcare scheme. They have been pushing for this since the 1930′s (long before HilaryCare) and only now under Obama and while they had Democrat control of the House and Senate were they finally able to (do what they couldn’t, but tried, to do under Clinton, and) ram it through.

Shamefully, Mitt Romney continues to struggle on finding the “right message” (response) to the ‘Obama-care is just Romney-care on a National scale’ meme. While there are similarities (Mandate), they are NOT exactly the same. The words Romney, and other Republicans, must be putting forth is the simple truth: Obama-care was designed to DISGUISE itself as a Romney-care clone, but is little more than a Trojan-horse (Wolf, in Romney-care clothing). While it (Obama-care) keeps the facade of “Private Insurance” coverages, countless other pages/sections are designed and in-place to undermine that (“If you like your plan, you can keep your plan”) concept and drive more and more people unto the “Public Option.” Obama-care was/is designed TO FAIL over the long haul, at which time having harmed Private coverage and driven people off their plans onto the Public Option, and usher in the Democrats next calls for out-right and complete 100% Government-run Socialized Medicine.

I have seen many Religious spokespersons asking that we contact our Representatives and ask that “this policy” be “corrected!” THAT IS THE WRONG APPROACH, ALL OF OBAMA-CARE MUST BE REPEALED – that is the correct/only option and course of action that will stop Liberals/Progressives from exerting control over any and all aspects of your Life in the name of Health Care. Our Representatives must STOP trying to tinker around the edges and continue to demand complete repeal – no Republican that offers/promises any less should be supported!

Obama’s mistake was letting this cat out of the bag before this 2012 election. Rest assured, if they cave on the issue now, it will only be to get past the election and to once again push this issue. It’s all about pushing people from Private coverage (by badgering, bullying, regulating into submission, or HC inflation to cause cost prohibition, organizations into dropping their coverages – pushing their people) to the Public Option.

Obamaocare primers: here, here, here, here, here, and HC summary here.

ObamaCare is a Bad Bill and Wrong for America


ObamaCare is a BAD Bill and Wrong for America
I’m taking the Time to Write this Note on ObamaCare due to the Fact that Some Liberals I Know Who Claim to be “Moderate” or “Independent” but Voted Democrat this Mid term Elections still Believe that ObamaCare “Isn’t ALL Bad” and “Can be Fixed”. No it Can’t. I Will Prove without a Shadow of a doubt that a Bad Bill is a Bad Bill. It Needs to be Defunded, Repealed and Replaced with FREE MARKET SOLUTIONS instead of this Monster Trainwreck Disaster We have Called ObamaCare.
UPDATED INFORMATION REGARDING OBAMACARE:

Landmark Files First Brief in

Florida Obamacare Case.
May 11, 2011

One of the law firms representing a lead party in the Florida litigation launched by 26 states challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare invited Landmark Legal Foundation to file an amicus curiae (“Friend of the Court”) brief in support of the federal district court’s decision that Obamacare was unconstitutional. Landmark was asked to address the Commerce Clause and tax issues relating to the legislation.

Landmark’s amicus brief is here: /uploads/Brief_Filed.pdf  – It is 40 Pages long.

 

Thanks to Judge Roger Vinson, of the Northern District of Florida, in Pensacola, ruled that it’s unconstitutional to require people to purchase health insurance on Jan 21st 2011, He FINALLY Forced Obama to have to APPEAL His Ruling on ObamaCare!
http://www.medpagetoday.com/Washington-Watch/Reform/25258

The case will now move to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta.

Judge Vinson Clarifies His Ruling and makes the Obama Defense Team Speed up their Case in the Process. Judge Vinson to Obama: Speed up the Appeal or Stop Implementing Obamacare
Posted March 3rd, 2011 at 3:22pm
The Obama administration got a well-deserved rebuke today from Judge Roger Vinson in the Florida lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare (aka the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act). Judge Vinson issued a new order in response to a bizarre and obtuse “motion to clarify” that the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed on February 17.
Vinson’s original order on January 31 could not have been clearer: He declared the entire law unconstitutional and specifically said that, because he presumed that officials of the executive branch would adhere to the law as declared by a court, his declaratory judgment striking the law down was the functional equivalent of an injunction. Judge Vinson wrote then that he presumed that the executive branch would follow his order, which any lawyer (including a lawyer President) would know requires them to cease implementing Obamacare with respect to the 26 states that are plaintiffs and the National Federation of Independent Business. That turned out to be a faulty presumption, indeed.

Bachmann: ObamaCare Is The “Crown Jewel Of Socialism”
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/01/19/bachmann_obamacare_is_the_crown_jewel_of_socialism.html

Everyone Seems to be “Getting it” Except for the Stubborn Tyranical Obama Administration. This is Lawlessness and Tyranny!

Even Mitch Daniels “Gets it”
FEBRUARY 7, 2011.An ObamaCare Appeal From the States by Mitch Daniels
Twenty-one governors representing more than 115 million Americans have written to Kathleen Sebelius asking for more flexibility on health-care reform.
Unless you’re in favor of a fully nationalized health-care system, the president’s health-care reform law is a massive mistake. It will amplify all the big drivers of overconsumption and excessive pricing: “Why not, it’s free?” reimbursement; “The more I do, the more I get” provider payment; and all the defensive medicine the trial bar’s ingenuity can generate.

All claims made for it were false. It will add trillions to the federal deficit. It will lead to a de facto government takeover of health care faster than most people realize, and as millions of Americans are added to the Medicaid rolls and millions more employees (including, watch for this, workers of bankrupt state governments) are dumped into the new exchanges.

Yet Even after all of the Exposure and Everyone “Getting it” Here’s how the White House Responds to the Federal Court Ruling.

Barack Obama will ignore the court ruling on Obamacare and will implement the law despite its unconstitutionality
February 7, 2011 by Steve Dennis
Unless you only get your news from the mainstream media you know that Obamacare was ruled unconstitutional in its entirety by a federal judge in Florida in a case that was brought against the federal government by a majority of the fifty states. While the internet has been abuzz by this ruling the mainstream media has all but ignored the fact that Barack Obama’s signature legislation was ruled unconstitutional.

And speaking of ignoring the Florida court ruling–the media isn’t the only one who has decided to pretend that this ruling doesn’t exist because the federal government still plans on implementing the unconstitutional law.

When Judge Roger Vinson handed down his ruling I was thrilled, yet at the same time I was dismayed by the fact that he did not issue an injunction to stop the Obama regime from implementing the unconstitutional law. But it turned out that Judge Vinson did not feel–rightfully so–that an injunction was necessary because his ruling was an injunction in and of itself:

Obama Invites Crisis If He Ignores Ruling
By BILL WILSON Posted 02/02/2011 06:12 PM ET
The decision by federal judge Roger Vinson striking down President Obama’s signature health care law effectively ends ObamaCare unless some higher court overturns it.

In spite of this overwhelming rebuke of the law, some Birkenstock-wearing legal analysts are trying to argue that Vinson’s ruling could be ignored by the administration.

That’s why this week’s action by Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen is so significant. Van Hollen has taken the proper step of following the law, which now says that ObamaCare is unconstitutional in its entirety, relieving Wisconsin of any obligation to follow it.

White House Says It Will Implement ObamaCare Despite Judge’s Declaration that His Ruling Against It Is ‘Equivalent of Injunction’
Monday, February 07, 2011 By Fred Lucas
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/administration-implement-obamacare-despi

Despite the World “Getting it” Obama and His Administration Still Choose to Implement and Secure as Much of Obamacare into Our System as He can. What a Jerk! What a Punk! What a Tyrant!

First off. Congress Would’ve Exempted Themselves from ObamaCare if they Could. I Wonder why that is? I Think We ALL Know why that is. It’s Not as close as Good as What they already have now. They Didn’t Want to be Forced to have what everyone is BEING FORCED TO HAVE?

The Coburn Amendment to HELP bill would require Congress to use Public Plan. http://www.modernhealthcare.com/article/20090714/REG/307149981#

Second. Obama and the Democrats Couldn’t have recieved Support from the Government employees and Major Labor Unions without Exempting them from having to give up their “Cadiallac Plans” for the ObamaCare BEING FORCED ON US.

28 States NOW Want to Block ObamaCare from their States. 20 0f those states involved in this lawsuit are: (Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Indiana, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Washington) along with the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Va and OK have filed Seperate Cases for their own reasons. A Federal Court Judge has allowed the 20-state challenge to Obamacare to go forward ruling against the Obama Justice Department challenge in a motion to dismiss. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=39429

There are 28 States Fighting Implementation of Obamacare in their States NOT because they believe it’s unfair or a bad Bill which it is but that’s NOT their Point. They’re Fighting this Obamacare Bill because it is ABSOLUTELY 100% UnConstitutional and Should NOT be Forced on the Good People of the United States.

Federal Judges in VA and FL have already Ruled Against Obamacare claiming it was Unconstitutional to force Americans to Purchase Health Care or face penatlies. That’s UnAmerican. It is something Foriegn to this Country and Should NOT be Permitted.
Utah Attorney General considers Obamacare UNENFORCEABLE!

February 3rd, 2011 10:19 am MT
SALT LAKE CITY – Following a ruling Monday by a Florida judge that deemed the Obama administration’s healthcare reform program unconstitutional, Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff has decided the ruling is the “functional equivalent” of an injunction, making the policy unenforceable.

US District Court Judge Roger Vinson’s decision was in favor of 26 states who filed suit against the federal government over the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The ruling said Congress could not force individuals over the age of 18 to purchase health insurance. Because the mandate is central to the law, the judge declared the entire act unconstitutional. Utah’s Shurtleff was among the first to file after the President signed the bill into law last spring.

Utah Deputy Attorney General John Swallow declared, “It is our legal opinion that we are no longer bound by the act.” The Attorney General’s office has told Governor Gary Herbert of their decision and he is weighing his options.

Idaho “Gets it” also
In the last 6 months, various laws with the objective of “nullifying” Obamacare have been introduced in thirteen states: Arizona, Idaho, Indiana, Maine, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming. To date, the farthest along had been Idaho, where a nullification bill declaring Obamacare “void and of no effect” and stopping its enforcement had passed the House and the governor was itching to sign it in to law. But in a victory for common sense and constitutional government, the legislation has been defeated in the Idaho Senate’s State Affairs Committee.

“I find no constitutional justification for the things that we are talking about here today,” said Senate President Pro Tempore Brent Hill. “I commend you for your goals, for the passion with which you pursue those. I cannot pursue them in the manner that some of you are prescribing.”

Third. Since So Many are getting these Exemptions and waivers…Why Not give out a Few waivers to McDonalds and 29 Other Companies like Jack in the Box Inc. and the United Federation of Teachers, won’t be required to raise the minimum annual benefit included in low- cost health plans covering seasonal, part-time or low-wage employees. The Department of Health and Human Services said it granted waivers in late September so workers with minimum plans would keep coverage without major premium increases.

Out of 310 million Americans, only 8,000 people have the problem given as the principal reason for spending almost $1 trillion, creating more than 150 regulatory agencies and causing perhaps 150 million or more people to change the coverage they now have.

Alert readers will remember the White House summer of 2009 invitation to all Americans to send in their horror stories describing health insurance industry abuses. Although the complaints were many, the vast majority were about pre-existing condition limitations. Then, on the eve of the ObamaCare vote, every member of Congress who appeared on television to defend the legislation was able to cite by name an individual or family in his or her state or Congressional district with a heart wrenching story.

Gone was any interest in “universal coverage” or “insuring the uninsured” or “helping poor people get health care.” The case for change was focused almost exclusively on protecting the middle class from miserly insurance companies.

ObamaCare Must be Great for Small Businesses though Right? It’s Really Not!

The current 1099 regulations require the reporting of earnings to the IRS on workers that make more than $600 in a calendar year but aren’t considered an employee of that company. Usually, these are given to contract workers that intermittently perform small jobs for a company.

Most small-business owners file about 10 of these 1099s a year without much fanfare or thought about the process or cost. This will change come Jan. 1, 2012 when the new ObamaCare 1099 provision comes into full force. It’s at this time that your small-business owner will be required to fill out a 1099 not just for contract laborers, but also for any person, company, or entity from whom they purchased more than $600 in goods or services in a calendar year. Experts agree that most small businesses will now be required to fill out more than 200 1099s on average each year and are required by law to send one to the vendor and the IRS.

This will cost the small-business owner thousands of dollars in record keeping and accounting fees to ensure compliance. The real cost will be the newly increased fines this Small Business lending bill will now charge for failure to file a 1099 for each vendor or improper completion of the form.

The Small Business Jobs and Credit Act of 2010 contains within it new penalties imposed on the small business dreamer by their elected representatives.

If a 1099 is filed incorrectly, a fine up to $100 is assessed for each occurrence. The maximum aggregate penalty was $250,000; this bill raises it to $1.5 million. If you don’t fill out a 1099 for every vendor, then a fine of $250 per occurrence is imposed. http://www.boogai.net/economics/the-small-business-jobs-and-credit-act-w…

Obama & the Dems had to Protect Medicare through all of this ObamaCare Process Right? I’m afraid Not.

They Thought it’d be a Better Idea to cut $500 Billion Dollars out of Medicare.

The Congressional majority wants to pay for its $1 trillion to $1.6 trillion health bills with new taxes and a $500 billion cut to Medicare. This cut will come just as baby boomers turn 65 and increase Medicare enrollment by 30%. Less money and more patients will necessitate rationing. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that only 1% of Medicare cuts will come from eliminating fraud, waste and abuse.

The assault against seniors began with the stimulus package in February. Slipped into the bill was substantial funding for comparative effectiveness research, which is generally code for limiting care based on the patient’s age.

How to defund Obamacare. You read it here first.
Set forth in this article:
http://www.nejm.org/doi/pdf/10.1056/NEJMp1011213
which is supportive of Obamacare, is the strategy for defunding Obamcare.
The relevant part:
Repeal of the ACA before 2013 is unlikely. Both houses of Congress would have to enact repeal legislation, which President Barack Obama would surely veto. Then,two thirds of both houses would have to vote to override that veto. After 2012, however, repeal could occur if Republicans win the White House and both houses of Congress and stick by their pledge.

Here’s More Proof/Evidence of how Obama is Willing to be sneaky and bend the Rules as long as it Advances His Agenda. This article points out how Obama tried to look like he was heading in the RIGHT Direction FINALLY on Health Care Reform aka ObamaCare but instead it’s just an attempt to implement ObamaCare through the back door administratively and adding Single Payer Plans in the process.

Jennifer Haberkorn reports that President Obama’s move to allow states flexibility in spending health care funds is the “most significant change” since the law was enacted, and a potential gesture toward critics.

But a source on a White House conference call with liberal allies this morning says the Administration is presenting it to Democrats as an opportunity to offer more expansive health care plans than the one Congress passed.

Health care advisers Nancy-Ann DeParle and Stephanie Cutter stressed on the off-record call that the rule change would allow states to implement single-payer health care plans — as Vermont seeks to — and true government-run plans, like Connecticut’s Sustinet.

The source on the call summarizes the officials’ point — which is not one the Administration has sought to make publically — as casting the new “flexibility” language as an opportunity to try more progressive, not less expansive, approaches on the state level.

“They are trying to split the baby here: on one hand tell supporters this is good for their pet issues, versus a message for the general public that the POTUS is responding to what he is hearing and that he is being sensible,” the source emails. (This CNN story reflects the public presentation.)

Much of the debate now focuses on the federal government’s power, and perhaps health care legislation’s critics wouldn’t object to single payer — in Vermont. But the prospect of a backdoor to a single-payer plan anywhere may also sharpen opposition.

UPDATE: An Administration official emails, “Administration official discussed how this legislation would help give states the opportunity to innovate. States have the flexibility to design plans in the way that works for them, so long as they meet the shared goals of reform. That could be any number of proposals from exchanges like the Utah model to other innovations that increase choice and competition.”

I Still Remember when the Republicans did have Alternative Free Market Solutions to Obamacare but were Completely ignored and shut out by Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic Majority in Congress.

LEADER BOEHNER’S ADDRESS ON THE REPUBLICAN PLAN
The American people have spoken. They oppose government-run health care. Republicans are on the side of the American people.

I Still Remember when the Republicans did have Alternative Free Market Solutions to Obamacare but were Completely ignored and shut out by Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic Majority in Congress.

What Americans want are common-sense, responsible solutions that address the rising cost of health care and other major problems. In the national Republican address on Saturday, October 31, 2009, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed Republicans’ plan for common-sense health care reform our nation can afford. Boehner’s address emphasized four common-sense reforms that will lower health care costs and expand access to quality care without a government takeover of our nation’s health care system that kills jobs, raises taxes on small businesses, or cuts Medicare for seniors:

■Number one: let families and businesses buy health insurance across state lines.
■Number two: allow individuals, small businesses, and trade associations to pool together and acquire health insurance at lower prices, the same way large corporations and labor unions do.
■Number three: give states the tools to create their own innovative reforms that lower health care costs.
■Number four: end junk lawsuits that contribute to higher health care costs by increasing the number of tests and procedures that physicians sometimes order not because they think it’s good medicine, but because they are afraid of being sued.

ADDITIONAL COMMON-SENSE REPUBLICAN REFORM PROPOSALS
For more information about some of the other common-sense health care reforms proposed by Republicans, please visit the links below:
■Empowering Patients First Act (Republican Study Committee Health Care Reform Bill, introduced July 30, 2009)
■Improving Health Care for All Americans Act (Shadegg Health Care Reform Bill, introduced July 14, 2009)
■Medical Rights & Reform Act (Kirk-Dent Health Care Reform Bill, introduced June 16, 2009)
■Help Efficient, Accessible, Low-cost, Timely Healthcare (HEALTH) Act (Gingrey medical liability reform bill, introduced June 6, 2009)
■Small Business Health Fairness Act of 2009 (Johnson small business health plans bill, introduced May 21, 2009)
■Promoting Health and Preventing Chronic Disease through Prevention and Wellness Programs for Employees, Communities, and Individuals Act of 2009 (Castle Wellness & Prevention Bill, introduced July 31, 2009)
■Improved Employee Access to Health Insurance Act of 2009 (Deal auto-enrollment bill, introduced October 15, 2009)
■Health Insurance Access for Young Workers and College Students Act of 2009 (Blunt bill to improve health insurance coverage of dependents, introduced October 21, 2009)

All of these Alternative Free Market Solutions were Ignored by Pelosi and the Democratic Majority Dominating Congress during Obama’s First TWO YEARS.
Just because they were IGNORED doesn’t mean they did NOT Exist! This is Proof they DID Offer Great Free Market Solutions!

Study Shows Gov’t Health Care More Expensive Than Private
Research by The Heartland Institute
(April 12, 2009) in Health / Health Care
By Greg Scandlen, Heartland Institute Health Care Expert
I have been remiss in not reporting earlier on an important study by the actuarial form Milliman, issued in December 2008. This study tries to balance the hysteria about cost-shifting from the uninsured to people with private coverage with an analysis of how much cost-shifting is the result of underpayment by Medicare and Medicaid.
The answer, it turns out, is that underpayment by those two public programs dwarfs any problems created by the uninsured.

Health Care, “Battle Of The Bulge”


We are at war and I am not talking about just Afghanistan. The war we are fighting is not on foreign soil, nor claims the lives of brave American soldiers who fight to defend our freedom. This war is on our own soil and though not a single shot has been fired has the potential, if lost, of devastating our country more than many wars in which we have fought before.

The war we are fighting is waged by protest, phone calls and e-mail as we the people of The United States take a stand against the tyrannical take over of our health care by Barack Obama and the leadership of the Congress. This one issue alone has consumed all of the air in Washington DC. It has taken most of the time and effort of the Congress and the President.

Though low on the list of priorities with most of the American people it is the subject of many conversations and consumes more than half of news coverage. This one issue has the potential of taking away a considerable amount of freedom from every American eliminating much of the choice that we have in determining our personal health care as government becomes the intermediary in all of our lives over delicate and costly decisions about our health.

It also, because of the socialistic nature of this attempt to take over such a large portion of our Nations economy, has the ability of opening a flood gate of similar government intrusions which would hasten a decline into a socialistic form of government and this too is one of the main reasons that the people of this country are coming out in droves to fight against this massive government entitlement.

Those who are in power in Washington from the President to the leadership in Congress have made it clear that the voice of the people does not matter in this issue of health care and whether we like it or not they plan to force this debacle down our throats. The only saving grace to this point is that some in Congress still think our voice matters whether it is a sincere concern for the people or just to save their political hide in an election year.

Additionally there are enough greedy members of Congress who will not vote unless they receive a significant kick back or bribe to gain that vote. So whether sincere concern or just plain greed by our, “Representatives,” this, “bill,” would have passed last August were in not for the anger and protest of the people. In the course of this war we have won several battles from either pressure that our protest and contact has made on Congress or the result of elections such as the Massachusetts Senate seat which Scott Brown won.

So where then do we stand in out fight for our freedom and to prevent this massive socialist take over of our health care and our country? We find ourselves facing a relentless foe in Obama and Congressional leadership in this fight who have made it obvious that they will stop at nothing to pass this nightmare. So how do we stand and what must we do now ?

If I were to make an analogy using a military example it would be the WWII battle which became known as the Battle of the Bulge. After Allied forces landed on the Normandy Beaches in the Summer of 1944 and broke out of the hedge row country the Allied advance moved like a juggernaut in defeating the German Army and driving them back into Germany, liberating much of Europe in the process.

Much of the Allied force in December of 1944 thought that the Germans were nearing total defeat, in fact many believed that the war could very well be over by Christmas. A general lull in fighting had taken place as a harsh winter had set in and the Allied forces and German forces faced each other in a line that basically followed the border of Germany. As Christmas approached many in the Allied forces were content to sit our the winter and await a German surrender.

The Germans though had not given up and on December 16, 1944 began a massive offensive in the Ardennes Mountains of Belgium catching the Allies by surprise and driving forces in a head long advance which pushed Allies back and over the course of nearly a month nearly brought victory for the Germans which would have extended the war to give time for Germany to deploy a great deal of advanced weaponry under development at the time that very well could have changed the out come of the war.

We who oppose the massive health care take over are facing our Battle of the Bulge. We have won many victories in preventing this debacle from passing. In fact it had seemed that health care would die a slow death as legislation because of the defeats it had received prior to this last push and many thought that we had seen the end of this attempt to take over health care.

But just as the Germans had not given up despite many defeats by the Allies and surprised Allies with a winter offensive in the Ardennes, Barack Obama and the Congressional leadership are making a Battle of the Bulge desperation offensive which, if won, will open the door to not only take over of our health care but possibly passage of other such disasters as Cap and Trade BEFORE we have opportunity to force a change in Congress in the November election.

We are learning just as the Allies did in December of 1944 that we face a relentless foe who will stop at nothing to achieve victory. And just like the Allies who temporarily were pushed back by the relentless onslaught, we must draw the line and stand true and strong in defeating this foe finally and completely. If health care fails there will not be the political will by Democrats in Congress to try and force through the rest of Obama’s agenda. Though Pelosi and Reid may try, Congressional Democrats will not be willing to stick out their necks for any other agenda items like Cap and Trade in an election year.

That is why we cannot slow in our cause nor waver in our determination to defeat this socialistic move. We have e-mailed, burned up the phone lines and protested until many may have come to the conclusion that it is useless to continue since we seem to be ignored. But remember it is ONLY our stand that has prevented this from passing seven months ago and it is that same stand that can prevent this new offensive from succeeding.

In WWII at the Battle of the Bulge American forces committed 800,000 men to stopping the German advance and lost 19,000 soldiers preventing the advance form obtaining the German goal of extending the war to give time for their new weaponry to hit the battle field. The Battle of the Bulge became largest and bloodiest battle Americans faced in the European Theatre in WWII.

We face our toughest battle against health care in the coming days as Obama and Democrat leadership are pulling out all the stops to force this through and down our throats. Attempts to create unconstitutional rules and maneuvering have already been attempted and the deception and maneuvering will only increase as the date for the vote draws closer. It will only be through our renewed determination and commitment of every resource available to us that we will be able to defeat this latest offensive for health care.

If we had called once a day we must call Congress 10 times a day. If we e-mailed weekly we must e-mail daily. If we protested occasionally we must protest continually. We must commit ourselves to all that it takes to make those whose votes are needed to pass this debacle more afraid of us then they are of the Congressional leadership. We must flood them with our voice until they have no choice but to listen and vote NO. We can win this Battle of the Bulge and bring about the total defeat of the socialistic agenda, but we must fight now and we must fight with more determination than ever before.

After Obamacare: What Do Conservatives And Republicans Want on Health Care?


Solutions? Yes. Comprehensive Federal Legislation? No.

Democrats trying to defend their flailing healthcare bills have tried, repeatedly, a two-pronged attack on the mostly united Republican opposition to the various plans floated by the Senate and House Democrats and the Obama White House. One is to suggest that Republicans are criticizing the proposed Democratic solutions without having any of their own – implying that there really is no other choice but to pass a Democratic bill and that Republican opposition is irresponsible. The other and related contention is to argue that Republicans have a responsibility to cooperate in bipartisan fashion on the bills currently under consideration, rather than seek those bills’ defeat.

These arguments are useful as political spin, but they are wrong. Moreover, they ignore the fact that the GOP has opposed the healthcare bills with much the same strategy employed by the Democrats against George W. Bush’s effort to reform Social Security – which almost certainly resulted in the destruction of any chance in the foreseeable future to fix Social Security’s fiscal problems or even prevent them from getting worse – as well as by forces both Right and Left against the Bush-McCain-Kennedy comprehensive immigration bill.

For the uninitiated, here’s a sampling of what conservatives and Republicans do think about health care. I can’t speak for everybody, but I think I can explain in general what the majority of the Right thinks and wants on this isue, and why it precludes most if not all elected Republicans from supporting any comprehensive healthcare bill built along the lines of those floated over the past year:

Welcome to the Political Pissfest


Territory is defined as an area, which an animal will defend against intruders of the same species. According to Robert Ardrey, “A territorial species of animals, therefore, is one in which all males, and sometimes females too, bear an inherent drive to gain and defend an exclusive property.”  As it is for animals, so it is for politicians, especially Barack Obama whose words and aggressive actions indicate an “inherent drive to gain and defend,” what the President perceives to be, “exclusive property.”

For twelve months, Barack Obama has acted like a male alpha dog rhetorically spraying every past, present and future policy issue he comes in contact with.    The President sycophantically practices placing socialist scents at nose level to alert conservative and moderate dogs, looking to claim a portion of the political prefecture, to back off.

Incessantly reiterating a liberal schema for America, the President may as well get it over with and mandate Obamaroma be crop dusted  over North America, and while he’s at it, if possible, spritz the whole planet.

Canines and other mammals mark territory for one purpose, to “limit competition within a niche or habitat,” for Obama that niche includes totalitarian power exercised, without obstruction, within Washington DC’s halls of power.  The yard Obama guards includes a liberal pack of canids from a Democratic carnivorous pit bull family.

In order to claim as much land mass as possible, African wild dogs are known to “…scramble as high up the trunk of a tree before squirting their message,” which is–step over the boundary and the area will be ruthlessly defended.

In Barack Obama’s case, not only are other politicians considered interlopers, but also based on the President’s blatant disregard for the electorate, apparently so are the American people.  If the voices of a representative democracy speak out in opposition to Obama’s policies, the President swiftly responds with a well-positioned leg lift followed by a prime time uncovering of saliva dripping premolars, issuing a bone-crushing warning to the defiant.

Although a president cannot literally mark large swatches of political territory by employing the “natural method,” pushing back against critics flouting Obama’s edicts and sanctions, in essence, is Barack marking territory.

Take for example, the majority of Americans opposing health care reform.    Alpha-Obama lifted his left-leg and “pushed back against opponents of his health care initiatives…again target[ing] insurance companies in the second of three town hall meetings aimed at winning support for legislation.”

Dogs sneaking through the barbed wire fence into Obama’s yard were met at a Joint Session of Congress by Obama spraying his critics, as well as, witnessing the President spew all over the entire chamber.  Once again, Obama pushed back–bared teeth and snarling, “The time for games has passed. Now is the season for action.” No discussion, no compromise.  Obama laid territorial claims and might as well have put a sign out saying, “Stay off the grounds this country belongs to me!”

Obama, together with the pack, have growled and marked the boundaries around the health care issue. Every time the opposition drew near Obama and his leftist minions charged the opposition imposing a health care bill on a nation that roundly rejects governmental kibble.

Hey, Republican Rover don’t you know well-trained pit bulls don’t back down and let what they consider scruffy stray dogs mark territory where top dogs rule?

Shockingly, unlikely cat lovers in liberal Massachusetts snapped the choke chain and took control of the situation by wresting control from trash heap dogs. Realizing the tail was wagging the dog, Americans rose up and sent the message, “Dogs don’t run the yard – owners do!”

Massachusetts voters targeted tail wagging hounds like Nancy Pelosi who mists Capitol Hill with left-wing political pheromones, bats her bitchy eyelashes and gnarrs, “Democrats will charge ahead with health care reform regardless of what happens in the Massachusetts Senate race.” Or, tyke’s like Charlie Rangel who mocked the Bay State’s attempt to claim territory as a non-starter, yipping out the retort “We will have health reform regardless of what happens in Massachusetts… We have alternatives to this cockamamie 60 votes in the Senate.”

Either way, Scott Brown’s election to the US Senate is a liberal electorate’s stunning message to the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue alpha dog commanding him to back off. As a result, the whole situation holds potential to become a national piss-off.  Because “When one male detects the scent of another, (particularly an unknown male), it could cause a perhaps low-level stress reaction, which would then increase the need to urinate.”  Scott Brown representing “We the people” in a seat vacated by liquored-up liberal paladin is sure to have alpha Obama’s bladder over stimulated to the point where a territory-marking flood is forthcoming like water crashing through a dam.

America can expect a public hydrant drenching in the days immediately following the election – just to remind everyone who’s in charge because,

Male dogs, on reaching a previously urine-marked landmark, will often attempt to cover over the urine marks of previous canine visitors with their own urine.  In so doing, they sometimes engage in some quite amusing acrobatics, including the reverse handstand sometimes displayed by little dogs when attempting to over-mark lofty scent marks left by larger dogs.”

After Scott Brown’s win Obama, a toy poodle deceived into believing he’s a pit bull, will exhibit political gymnastics to win back ground lost spinning a loss into a win like Jonathan Horton working the high bar.

As America has witnessed over the last year, some dogs have an obsession about marking territory. The best way to prevent a male dog from urine marking is to neuter the canine before territorial behavior is exhibited, with Obama already in office, its too late for that.   However, if the animal is already established, neutering may not help and wherever the male canid sprays the odor needs to be neutralized, which is what Massachusetts voters did tonight.

Truth is, Obama fancies himself an alpha male.  “The alpha makes and enforces the rules. Alpha dogs enforce their authority by the use of stern eye contact, growling, dominant body postures and if that fails, biting and fighting. If you watch your dogs closely, you’ll see examples of this eye contact and posture in their daily activities.”  Since day one, dominant body posture, lack of sincere eye contact and haughty posture has been on full display from the occupant of the Oval Office.

The President’s “bark may be in equal proportion to his bite,” and Obama can drench the political landscape all he likes with the stench of socialistic policy.  In the meantime, while an out-of-control Obama circles the fire hydrant continuing to believe “no leash can hold him and his tail wags for no one,”  in one day, Massachusetts voters neutralized and counteracted the leader of the pack and in the process set about retraining the unruly horde of junkyard dogs he runs with.

Hey, Obama, “Sit, roll over and beg,” the American people own you!

We Are No Longer a Nation of Laws. Senate Sets Up Requirement for Super-Majority to Ever Repeal Obamacare


The Senate Democrats declare a super-majority of senators will be needed to overrule any regulation imposed by the Death Panels

If ever the people of the United States rise up and fight over passage of Obamacare, Harry Reid must be remembered as the man who sacrificed the dignity of his office for a few pieces of silver. The rules of fair play that have kept the basic integrity of the Republic alive have died with Harry Reid. Reid has slipped in a provision into the health care legislation prohibiting future Congresses from changing any regulations imposed on Americans by the Independent Medicare [note: originally referred to as "medical"] Advisory Boards, which are commonly called the “Death Panels.”

It was Reid leading the Democrats who ignored 200 years of Senate precedents to rule that Senator Sanders could withdraw his amendment while it was being read.

It was Reid leading the Democrats who has determined again and again over the past few days that hundreds of years of accumulated Senate parliamentary rulings have no bearing on the health care vote.

On December 21, 2009, however, Harry Reid sold out the Republic in toto.

Upon examination of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment to the health care legislation, Senators discovered section 3403. That section changes the rules of the United States Senate.

To change the rules of the United States Senate, there must be sixty-seven votes.

Section 3403 of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment requires that “it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider any bill, resolution, amendment, or conference report that would repeal or otherwise change this subsection.” The good news is that this only applies to one section of the Obamacare legislation. The bad news is that it applies to regulations imposed on doctors and patients by the Independent Medicare Advisory Boards a/k/a the Death Panels.

Section 3403 of Senator Reid’s legislation also states, “Notwithstanding rule XV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, a committee amendment described in subparagraph (A) may include matter not within the jurisdiction of the Committee on Finance if that matter is relevant to a proposal contained in the bill submitted under subsection (c)(3).” In short, it sets up a rule to ignore another Senate rule.

Senator Jim DeMint confronted the Democrats over Reid’s language. In the past, the Senate Parliamentarian has repeatedly determined that any legislation that also changes the internal standing rules of the Senate must have a two-thirds vote to pass because to change Senate rules, a two-thirds vote is required. Today, the Senate President, acting on the advice of the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that these rules changes are actually just procedural changes and, despite what the actual words of the legislation say, are not rules changes. Therefore, a two-thirds vote is not needed in contravention to longstanding Senate precedent.

How is that constitutional? It is just like the filibuster. Only 51 votes are needed to pass the amendments, but internally, the Senate is deciding that it will not consider certain business. The Supreme Court is quite clear that it won’t meddle with the internal operations of the House and Senate. To get around the prohibition on considering amendments to that particular subsection of the health care legislation, the Senate must get two-thirds of the Senate to agree to waive the rule. In other words, it will take a super-majority of the people the citizens of our Republican elected to overrule a regulation imposed by a group of faceless bureaucrats and bean counters.

Here is the transcript of the exchange between Jim DeMint and the Senate President:

DEMINT: But, Mr. President, as the chair has confirmed, Rule 22, paragraph 2, of the standing rules of the Senate, states that on a measure or motion to amend the Senate rules, the necessary affirmative vote shall be two-thirds of the senators present and voting. Let me go to the bill before us, because buried deep within the over 2,000 pages of this bill, we find a rather substantial change to the standing rules of the Senate. It is section 3403 and it begins on page 1,000 of the Reid substitute. . . . These provisions not only amend certain rules, they waive certain rules and create entirely new rules out of whole cloth.”

The Senate President disagreed and said it was a change in procedure, not a change in rules, therefore the Senate precedent that a two-thirds vote is required to change the rules of the Senate does not apply.

Senator DeMint responded:

DEMINT: and so the language you see in this bill that specifically refers to a change in a rule is not a rule change, it’s a procedure change?

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: that is correct.

DEMINT: then i guess our rules mean nothing, do they, if they can re define them. thank you. and i do yield back.

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: the senate stands adjourned until 7:00 a.m. tomorrow.

That’s right. When confronted with the facts, the Senate Democrats ran for cover. The Senate Democrats are ignoring the constitution, the law, and their own rules to pass Obamacare.

To quote the Declaration of Indepedence:

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

This, Ladies and Gentlemen, is one of those causes. When the men and women who run this nation, which is supposedly a nation of laws not men, choose to ignore the laws and bribe the men, the people cannot be blamed for wanting to dissolve political bands connecting them to that government.

UPDATED: A number of people on our side are saying I’m making a mountain out of a mole hill on this issue. I hope they and you, after reading this, will read this response to that criticism.

For your edification, the full transcript of the exchange between Jim DeMint and the Senate President is presented, unedited, below the fold.

Reid has slipped in a provision into the health care legislation prohibiting future Congresses from changing any regulations imposed on Americans by the Independent Medicare [note: originally referred to as "medical"] Advisory Boards, which are commonly called the “Death Panels.”

It was Reid leading the Democrats who ignored 200 years of Senate precedents to rule that Senator Sanders could withdraw his amendment while it was being read.

It was Reid leading the Democrats who has determined again and again over the past few days that hundreds of years of accumulated Senate parliamentary rulings have no bearing on the health care vote.

On December 21, 2009, however, Harry Reid sold out the Republic in toto.

Upon examination of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment to the health care legislation, Senators discovered section 3403. That section changes the rules of the United States Senate.

To change the rules of the United States Senate, there must be sixty-seven votes.

Section 3403 of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment requires that “it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider any bill, resolution, amendment, or conference report that would repeal or otherwise change this subsection.” The good news is that this only applies to one section of the Obamacare legislation. The bad news is that it applies to regulations imposed on doctors and patients by the Independent Medicare Advisory Boards a/k/a the Death Panels.

Section 3403 of Senator Reid’s legislation also states, “Notwithstanding rule XV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, a committee amendment described in subparagraph (A) may include matter not within the jurisdiction of the Committee on Finance if that matter is relevant to a proposal contained in the bill submitted under subsection (c)(3).” In short, it sets up a rule to ignore another Senate rule.

Senator Jim DeMint confronted the Democrats over Reid’s language. In the past, the Senate Parliamentarian has repeatedly determined that any legislation that also changes the internal standing rules of the Senate must have a two-thirds vote to pass because to change Senate rules, a two-thirds vote is required. Today, the Senate President, acting on the advice of the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that these rules changes are actually just procedural changes and, despite what the actual words of the legislation say, are not rules changes. Therefore, a two-thirds vote is not needed in contravention to longstanding Senate precedent.

How is that constitutional? It is just like the filibuster. Only 51 votes are needed to pass the amendments, but internally, the Senate is deciding that it will not consider certain business. The Supreme Court is quite clear that it won’t meddle with the internal operations of the House and Senate. To get around the prohibition on considering amendments to that particular subsection of the health care legislation, the Senate must get two-thirds of the Senate to agree to waive the rule. In other words, it will take a super-majority of the people the citizens of our Republican elected to overrule a regulation imposed by a group of faceless bureaucrats and bean counters.

Here is the transcript of the exchange between Jim DeMint and the Senate President:

DEMINT: But, Mr. President, as the chair has confirmed, Rule 22, paragraph 2, of the standing rules of the Senate, states that on a measure or motion to amend the Senate rules, the necessary affirmative vote shall be two-thirds of the senators present and voting. Let me go to the bill before us, because buried deep within the over 2,000 pages of this bill, we find a rather substantial change to the standing rules of the Senate. It is section 3403 and it begins on page 1,000 of the Reid substitute. . . . These provisions not only amend certain rules, they waive certain rules and create entirely new rules out of whole cloth.”

The Senate President disagreed and said it was a change in procedure, not a change in rules, therefore the Senate precedent that a two-thirds vote is required to change the rules of the Senate does not apply.

Senator DeMint responded:

DEMINT: and so the language you see in this bill that specifically refers to a change in a rule is not a rule change, it’s a procedure change?

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: that is correct.

DEMINT: then i guess our rules mean nothing, do they, if they can re define them. thank you. and i do yield back.

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: the senate stands adjourned until 7:00 a.m. tomorrow.

That’s right. When confronted with the facts, the Senate Democrats ran for cover. The Senate Democrats are ignoring the constitution, the law, and their own rules to pass Obamacare.

To quote the Declaration of Indepedence:

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

This, Ladies and Gentlemen, is one of those causes. When the men and women who run this nation, which is supposedly a nation of laws not men, choose to ignore the laws and bribe the men, the people cannot be blamed for wanting to dissolve political bands connecting them to that government.

UPDATED: A number of people on our side are saying I’m making a mountain out of a mole hill on this issue. I hope they and you, after reading this, will read this response to that criticism.

For your edification, the full transcript of the exchange between Jim DeMint and the Senate President is presented, unedited, below the fold.

Have you seen me?


Won't you come home, Russ Carnahan? Won't you please come home?

My name is Russ Carnahan (D, MO-03), and I’m lost:

(via Dana Loesch. Also note: Ed Martin is running against this guy.)

I was last seen a week or so ago, hiding in a garage after a get-together I threw ended with some people that I invited beating up a guy. I’ve dropped off the face of the earth since then.  No Twitter*, no blogging, nothing from work… I’m just goneNow, I’ve had a bit of a sheltered life, and I’m not used to it when things go bad: so I may in a bad place right now.  If you see me, please let Ed Martin (R) know; he thinks that I need to take a break anyway, and he’d like to talk to me about it.

I may be with one or more friends, who are also missing:
