There sure seems to be a lot of anger over the Obama Healthcare plan. Congressman are returning to their home districts trying to sell it in town hall meetings and are they ever getting an earful from a lot of angry voters!
To quote from one angry man, "I consider myself just an average American but there is not a day or a week that goes by that I don't hear talk about revolution in our country because (of) the government," said a man who called himself a "conservative, mainstream American."
"We (the United States under Obama) have gone so far out of the Constitution," he said to a standing ovation.
Yep, sure seems these rascals in Washington completely misread what people want. So much so, people are not just talking about a little protest anymore, there's more and more talk about an all out open revolution than at any time since the civil war. A revolt where people in Washington would be hung for treason...this is serious stuff going on here folks. People are really sound sick of lying, cheating, thieving politicians who continually rip off the American Taxpayer.
Congress assumed we wanted government health insurance and that we somehow like to pay medical insurance for illegal aliens! They assumed we were happy about bailing out big corporations and printing up trillions of dollars to make it necessary to raise taxes to pay down the deficit. They don't think we mind slipping into socialism! I don't know how they could have got it so wrong unless they are living in an underground bunker and only talk with their fellow liberal democrats?
They are making another big mistake by assuming that the Tea Party movement is just a bunch of paid shills for certain corporate interests. Now that's downright insulting! These are angry patriotic people fed up with rabid left wingers undermining our Constitution and forcing a Nanny State on us.
Check out this news story on the wires: BOILING SPRINGS, S.C./OCONTO FALLS, Wisc. (Reuters) - At scattered events across the United States, protesters are confronting members of Congress whose summer "town hall" meetings aim to get a sense of how Americans feel about overhauling healthcare.
Boiling Springs in South Carolina -- population 4,500 -- was true to its name on Thursday, giving U.S. Representative Bob Inglis a taste of rising anger among conservative voters toward President Barack Obama's reform plan.
"There is no way, shape or form we need to have a national healthcare system. No! Nothing! None! It's got to stop now," said one man who addressed the audience of 300 people to sustained applause.
The Obama administration is ACTUALLY encouraging pro Health Care reform activists to confront the grass roots anti Health Care Reform Protesters. He, and his high powered surrogates are actually directing leftist mobs. Another words as you Jack and OV pointed out that mean Union Thugs. He wants skull cracking rib breaking arm busting thugs to get into the faces of American people exercising their constitutional right to protest.
I can see another Lexington and Concord event happening very soon; even by the end of August.
This debate is degenerating into something very ugly and the phony "UNITER" appears to be looking for a fight.
Well Mr.B Hussein Obama, read my name and READ MY LIPS!
I am ready DUDE!
Don't be silly. The fourth estate in hot on the fiscal trail of Norquist, et al. We'll have these town hall provocateurs sourced out in no time. And then won't you be embarrassed?
P. S.: You have GOT to talk to the ER about this bloody buggy software. The banner ads obscrure the posts, you can't click on them to reply.
It's always telling you you typed the caption wrong, when you checked it three times. And then when you get back to the "original" entry, your text is erased.
I bet five bucks traffic is down over this. I'm getting fed up.
I received an email from the Obama camp to attend a couple of town hall style meetings in my area to show my support of the health care plan. They want to show an organized response of pro health care individuals to attend. When you RSVP, a note with your comments to the REP. will be handed over to be discussed. Imagine his surprise when asked if he and all other members of Congress would be willing to forfeit their existing insurance for the health plan they are proposing. The actuarial tables used to determine remaining life span and the notes as to your life skills and further co ntributions will accompany the review for pending treatment. In this case, individuals such as Sen. Kennedy and Justice Ginsberg would be out of luck. Chemotherapy costs on average $100,000 yr.
In todays paper, the AMA came out against this health plan. It suggested there was a lack of incentives for those in research or medicine to evolve the way treatment is made. So much for Obamas saying this plan had the endorsement of the AMA. They do support health care reform, just not as it represented. The AMA says it is already constrained under a number of insurance plans, they dont need an even bigger hand in this pot.
Libby, I know and we have complained many times...I will forward your comments to our editor.
There are lots of reasons to revolt. This health care bill is just another one.
It is, however being used as a wedge issue to divide us. Nothing new here.
Corporate orchestration?
It is hard to get people who are paying 10,000 dollars a year in health insurance premiums to say they are against reducing their financial burden, but it has happened.
But where are they hearing the opposing views that would motivate their actions? On a radio? A TV? A newspaper?
Those sources require tremendous amounts of money to get the message out. Where does that money come from?
Could it be the same sources that the Blue dogs are getting their bribes from? Common sense would dictate that it is.
(Jack speaking) Quentin, nothing can divide true patriots. We know their game. We can debate the small stuff, but when it counts we are united. Tougher times are coming our way and we're going to have prepare ourselves. A few years ago I never thought I would be saying this, but I think our country is coming apart.
