My Thoughts on Today’s Historic Health Care Vote
Posted by Dana Walsh - Sun, March 21, 2010 at 11:53 AM
OBAMA ADMITS IT: This Health Care Reform Bill is NOT about better Health Care options for Americans. It's all about Obama and about furthering his agenda. Obama is telling Dems that if HCR goes down, his whole agenda is threatened--Immigration Reform (aka amnesty), energy (Cap and Trade) and the rest.
The cynical speculation about who will have to take the fall for voting yes on this atrocious bill shows political back-room deals at their most repugnant. I remember when some representatives claimed they voted for the bill (the original 1018 page Nancy Pelosi House bill) admitting that it was "profoundly flawed" because they had to do "something." Now the bill is well over 2500 pages; who KNOWS how profoundly flawed it is now!?
IT DOESN'T MATTER - It doesn't matter that it will destroy our health care system. It doesn't matter it will bankrupt the country. It doesn't matter that individuals will no longer have control over their lives.
This is just the first battle in the war to control the American public.
I've often said that Nancy Pelosi is interested only in Power and Politics, not People and Policy. There is now no denying it. If this bill passes, the takeover will have begun.
This report exposes another factor that should concern every citizen. The changes to our Health Care will not be seen until "2014, 2015 even up to 2017".
Big Question: WHY such a long wait until people see the changes? Do those who have voted for this think they'll have political cover by that time? I believe those who have put together this "reform" KNOW how bad it will be and want to be gone before the public realizes it. Or, worse yet, don't have a clue about the consequences - and have the gall to foist this on the public anyway.
IT DOES MATTER - It matters to Americans who value their freedoms, who believe that government has no business legislating our health care, and who have had ENOUGH of this.
THIS BILL MUST NOT PASS.
