Health Care

We are starting to find out about the "bribes" that Dingy Reid is offering. Sen. Nelson got free medicaid for his state for the rest of eternity. Sen. Sanders got $10 billion pet project for his state. Sen. Landrieu got $300 million for her state. There is still 97 Senators left! Maybe I should write to my other Senator, Nevada has the second highest unemployment rate in the nation and the great and mighty Senate Majority Leader has done nothing for his own state. It is so absurd, health care legislation and it's filled with pork! Why not develop a bill that could stand on it's own merit and not be bogged down by bribes and back room meetings?

The question I have is, what are they trying to do? They are not trying to fix health care, that much is obvious. Are they trying to get their names in the history books? It seems more like that, all they talk about is the historic legislation, not actually fixing the problems. If this was really about health care and making it better for Americans, wouldn't it include limiting lawsuits or abuse and fraud? If it was really trying to make health insurance more affordable, wouldn't it include interstate purchase of policies or portability? It it was really about helping Americans wouldn't they revamp medicaid to cover the 12 million people that need it? Would they really destroy the entire health care industry instead of fixing areas that need it?

The health care bill is not about health care, if it was there would be no mention of reconciliation (no legislative language & five year limit). The health care bill is about control, control over the people, control of their decisions, control of their lives.

We must kill this bill!

Letter to Senate Majority Leader

Here is the body of the letter just sent to the Senate majority leader. Please copy and send to any Senator that voted for this health care train wreck bill.

I can not begin to tell you how disappointed I am about the health care bill. From what I have been following, it seems like there is nothing left in the bill but taxes and government mandates. How is that going to help the American people? There is no tort reform, no portability, no reform of abuses in medicare or medicaid or even a citizenship requirement. The public option has been pulled, early enrollment in medicare has been pulled, what is left? Why is there no republicans allowed in on the closed door meetings? What about transparency and working with both sides of the aisle? Why won't you release the bill so the American People can see what is in it? It's disgraceful to see the midnight sessions, closed door meetings, weekend sessions to cram through health care legislation that no one knows what is actually in it. Have you even read the bill? I would like to, but you won't let me or millions of other people have the chance with something as important as OUR health care, not yours, but the American people. If this bill is so wonderful, why do you have to bribe senators with pork politics? How does this bill lower costs? The CBO's report showed that the bill would do nothing to curb costs. How does this bill create competition? Wouldn't interstate purchase of health insurance do that? The CBO also reported that only 96% of people would be covered, which means the 12 million people who really need the assistance still won't be covered. Who is this bill really for? It does not seem to be for the American people.

I have now given up on you to do the right thing and I am now going to do everything in my power to make sure you do not see another term in the US Senate. I am going to rally my friends, knock on doors and become personally involved in the election of your opponent in next years election.

America's Third Party

A third political party in the United States has mixed reviews. If you look at the impact of the Libertarian party in national elections it is almost nil. Look at the impact of Ross Perot, many say he cost the Republicans the election by splitting the vote among the republicans and the Perot supporters. This past presidential election, I think, would have been the best chance for a third party candidate to win. Supporters of a third party mention that people have become alienated with both parties and need a change. Opponents of a third party argue that all it does is take voters away from the major parties and can not have any real impact. This article is not about the Libertarian Party or the Tea Party or the Patriot Party but rather does a third party exist if it hijacks a major party?

The Shadow Party has hijacked the Democrat Party. The Shadow Party was created by George Soros (see previous blog) and other left wing radicals mainly to defeat George Bush in 2002. The Shadow Party did not just pop up overnight but the groundwork began long before, in fact you could say it started in the 1960's and you could even say it started with Saul Alinsky. Soros belief in a One World Government and social justice fits right in line with the 60's radicals. The Shadow Party is more of finance than political following. George Soro's Open Society Institute has many splinter groups and he is a major financier of all of those groups, which includes ACORN, America Coming Together, Center for American Progress, America Votes, Move On, Media Fund, and many, many more. In addition to the activist groups, many unions and "political" think tanks are also funded through these groups and are led by "left" minded people. These groups are all activist groups that believe in social justice and redistribution of wealth. Their listings (529) with the IRS allowed them to donate limitless and undisclosed amounts of money to political parties and candidates. The candidates that receive this money have been recruited by the 60's radicals for their left wing political views.

The activist groups follow along the lines of Saul Alinsky teachings from Rules for Radicals and the Cloward Piven strategy. The teachings are ones of scare tactics, fear mongering, crisis exploitation, paid protesters and personal attacks. Other teachings include creating an enemy, taking the enemy out of their comfort zone, using the enemy against themselves, overload the system, create crisis where none exist and break the system from the top down and bottom up at the same time.

Look at how radical the Democrat party has become, it's obviously happened. Look at the crisis they have created. Health care and Cap & Trade are the two big ones, that could fundamentally transform America, just like Obama said (although most of those following him did not realize he meant transform into a socialist country). Health care is a big one, all polls show that between 70% to 80% are happy with their health care. That being true, why is there all of a sudden a health care crisis? There was not one last year but now we must hurry and pass a massive bill that nobody but the special interest groups that wrote it have read. The most amusing (scary) part is all of the loud talk. Republicans want you to die quickly and quietly, 14,000 people lose their insurance a day, we must act now, 56 million people are in dire need of health care. Sounds like scare tactics and fear mongering. Even if the number of people was around 56 million (if you take out illegal immigrants, those who choose not to purchase, those who qualify for assistance but don't apply the number is closer to 9 to 12 million)that's only 18% of the population. Why would anyone look at scrapping the entire health care industry for 18% because 82% of people are happy, it's not logical. Actually, using the number of actual people in need of insurance it's about 4% of the population, ironically the same number of people left uninsured by the health care reform bills in Congress. So all they are going to do with this bill is increase taxes on everybody and help no one. If you thought health care was a big one, Cap & Trade is even a bigger one. Global warming is killing the polar bears, melting the ice caps, making the world hotter and we must act now to stop the production of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide? What I exhale is now polluting the earth, next you will tell me that water vapor and cow farts are the biggest "global warming" gases. Years ago, I remember that aerosol cans were creating a hole in the ozone, good thing we banned all of those aerosol cans, wait we didn't. What happened to the hole that was going to kill life on earth? I know, it must have been filled with all those greenhouse gases. Now that all of the data that was covered up by left wing earth groups and climatologists is starting to surface and raising the question about the validity of the global warming science. The fact that over recent years the earth's temperature has cooled has caused these alarmist to call it climate change. I don't know if the globe is warming or even if humans are the cause, but to find out, we can't hide the findings that disagree with a leftist cause and promote only views that agree. Cap and trade could harm the United States much more than the health care bill. Cap and trade would "only" tax those carbon producers. Who doesn't produce carbon, our cars, our houses, our jobs, the stores we shop in, the goods we buy, even the air we exhale. Smart grids and smart boxes installed to "monitor" energy consumption. Under England's cap and trade, microchips are installed in trash cans to monitor the amount of unrecycled trash that is disposed of by residents. If you look at what cap and trade is designed to do, it distributes wealth from the developed nations to the undeveloped nations. It doesn't attempt to stop carbon production around the world, just move the money around the globe. George Soros pushes for socialized medicine, cap and trade and in fact he "predicted" the stimulus package, pushes for open borders and is trying to create a one world government, where he sits on top.

The Shadow Party creates crisis like health care and global warming, attacks the opponents of the issues with hateful language. Uses fear mongering to create a "grassroots" group among the poor to promote solutions to these "crisis" and focus hate towards those who oppose, making them the enemy of the people. The Shadow Party also picks candidates and with the support from these activist groups can begin their revolution on both sides. If you look at all the things going on in this country, it's hard to keep up and that's the point, go in ten directions at one time and see who can follow all directions. Hurry up and rush, got to get health care done, hurry up, got to get cap & trade done. Let's slow down and take a look at the troops, no need to hurry there, nothing at stake but American lives. Let's slow down and take a look at the economy, no need to hurry, nothing at stake but American jobs and livelihood. The goal of the Shadow Party is not to help America but hurt it. Maybe hurt isn't the right word, kill it is more like it. They don't want a free society, they want a controlled society. The goal is to create a citizenry dependent on the government so when the government offers more, the people will back them. Remove borders and flood the system with even more dependents and voters.

America needs to open their eyes and see what we are headed into, with blindfolds on (just like when you face a firing squad). Sheeples think that health care and cap & trade are programs designed to help people and the environment, but they are not, they are designed to control people and redistribute wealth and transform the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave into another Cuba or Soviet Union or China. The wheels have been in motion for sometime and some Americans would prefer the security of governmental control than the freedom to decide what happens in their life, others live under the guise of freedom with blinders on shading them from what is happening right under their noses. Is that what we have come to? Where is the incentive to create the next great invention, cure the next illness or work hard for the things they want. When all of those who produce leave the country or stop producing, who is going to provide? The government? Look at their track record, we need the government to get out of the way so the free market can thrive. We need people to rediscover a work ethic, become educated and take control of our country before it's to late. Or is it?
