Dingell: ObamaCare will “Control the People”

admin — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 16:39:04 +0000

OK, honestly, is this really a surprise? Anyone with a clue already knows this is about taking away more individual freedom and increasing government dependence. Thomas Jefferson could power the world as much as he’s spinning in his grave from this monstrosity.

Health Care Tanning Tax Starting

admin — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 00:02:07 +0000

Yay! It’s here! The first new tax for health care is finally here! It only took about 36 hours from the time Congress passed the health care bill before the first new tax was enacted. This one is a 10% tax on tanning beds.

But that’s not all, let me tell you what else you’ve won. You also get increased taxes on insurers (don’t worry, they’ll pass the cost on to you), increased taxes on drugmakers (oh, fear not, that cost will be passed on to your prescriptions, it won’t bother them), increased taxes on medical device companies (again, they’ll just pass the taxes along to you for your new pacemaker), and new taxes on Americans making more than $200,000 a year (you know, those people that own small businesses and provide over half of all private sector jobs, so they’ll just lower wages or cut employees, no big deal).

Isn’t this new health care program just great? I know I’m excited that I will no longer be able to do something as simple as decide to take high-deductable insurance. It’s hard to wait until the “Cadillac” policy tax goes into effect. All this for the 47 million… huh? 30 million? really? I thought he said… ok… 30 million new people… Maybe that’s ObamaMath (like 57 states?).

Head over to John John Goodman’s Health Policy blog for some real facts. There could be 33 million lose medicare coverage alone thanks to the cuts. Throw in higher health care costs, additional taxation, potential for rationing of care, increased IRS investigation, and you need a considerable amount of ObamaMath in to spin this into a positive thing!

Obama: 5 Days to Look at Every Bill

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 16:03:59 +0000

Well, if my math is correct, health care will get signed sometime Friday night. After all, Obama promised we’d have 5 days to look at every bill before he would sign anything that reached his desk. Remember that pledge?

Not So Random Acts of Arrogance

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 12:24:34 +0000

Is anyone else noticing the outright arrogance of this administration? They are completely ignorant of public opinion (not to mention the constitution). Obama’s victory speech tried to say that America was listened to and he delivered what they wanted. Has he not seen the polls? Is he truly that far out of touch with reality or is he getting bad intelligence data from someone?

Then you have Jessie Jackson giving a smug look at tea partiers and grabbing at their signs, clearly attempting to bait them.

Al Sharpton understands what Obama’s change means. The man is claiming that Americans voted overwhelmingly for the way Obama is transforming the country, and if it is Socialism, so be it. His delivery is amazingly smug

Who Voted for the Health Care Bill?

admin — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 13:27:20 +0000

Now that the damage has been done everyone wants to know who needs to be held accountable in November. Below is the list of the 219 representatives that voted to pass this disasterous piece of legislation. Note that 34 Democrats joined every Republican in voting against it. Isn’t it nice to see that Obama is keeping his promise of ending partisanship? We actually had bi-partisan resistance to the bill, that’s certainly a step forward, right?

Voted YES			Voted NO
Gary L. Ackerman	D	N.Y.-5	Robert B. Aderholt	R	Ala.-4
Robert E. Andrews	D	N.J.-1	John Adler	D	N.J.-3
Joe Baca	D	Calif.-43	Todd Akin	R	Mo.-2

Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Live Stream of Healthcare Debate admin — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 01:02:09 +0000 I’ve had several emails today asking if I knew where to get a live stream of the healthcare debate. Hit play below, where this debate is happening live (and the vote will be covered as well). You can watch the Democrats “make history” there, changing America from being a leader to being a follower. Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Democrats: Making Up the Rules as They Go Along admin — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 23:46:18 +0000 Honestly, the only surprise here is that they actually are finally starting to admit that this is how they operate. Shameful! Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Boehner Asks for “Call of the Roll” admin — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 23:42:47 +0000 There’s little doubt Pelosi will actually let it happen, but John Boehner has formally asked that there be a “Call of the Roll.” Typically, rolls are taken electronically unless the Speaker requests that the votes be taken by a “Call of the Roll.” In that case, the Clerk would call each member alphabetically by surname and give their vote. It is a shame that Pelosi won’t even consider doing this. It would make fantastic fodder in the elections to show each member that votes yes verbally giving their votes. I’m guessing that many that are voting yes on this bill are doing so with a great deal of shame (not to mention a lot of whip-marks on their backs from the Democrat leadership) Continue reading: Boehner Asks for “Call of the Roll” Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Howard Stern: Democrats are Communists admin — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 16:45:21 +0000 Wow, you’re in big trouble when left-of-center Howard Stern calls you Communist.

Click the hyperlink for a PDF version. It is a 153 page document. In case you’re curious, the word ‘tax’ (or a derivative) is mentioned 57 times (though I may have lost count). ‘Benefit’ is mentioned only 6 times Continue reading: Download a Copy of the Democrat 2010 Health Care Bill Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Where Reps Stand on Health Care Bill as of Today admin — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:52:12 +0000 Courtesy of the Washington Post, here is a sortable list of all Representatives and where they currently stand (as well as how they voted last time) on the health care bill. Even if they are showing as a “Yes” vote, call and voice your opposition anyhow. Many listed as yes (Driehaus comes to mind) know in the back of their mind that a yes vote is a suicide vote and every call will make that voice louder. Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ ObamaCare is about Making History admin — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 13:43:04 +0000 As I continue to watch the Democrats continue to push and push in their attempt to pass ObamaCare, one thing continues to become evident… This isn’t about helping America or fixing healthcare, it is about “making history”. Even more disappointing is that the President stated in his State of the Union address that his number one focus was going to be jobs. Instead he pushes a bill that would cause 120,000 to 700,000 more jobs to be lost. March 14 - Nancy Pelosi: “on the verge of making history“ March 16 – Nancy Pelosi: “It’s a very exciting prospect that we’re right on the brink of making history“ March 17 – James McGovern (D-MA): “This is a historic moment“Continue reading: ObamaCare is about Making History Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Candian Healthcare: ObamaCare Model admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 01:30:07 +0000 PJTV produced a good feature on Canadian healthcare. It’s such a wonderful system that the proposed healthcare system is greatly modeled off of it. Take a look at the video to see what a fantastic healthcare system it is. It is a great view into what is coming. After watching it, I bet you’ll be unable to wait for the additional health issues due to delayed care, the extra taxes upon taxes, and the even more expensive “private option” (if you can afford it that is)!

It seems to be the best summary out there on where we are on this health care debacle and how we got there. Republicans: Hey guys, since it’s May 2009, here’s a bunch of our ideas on health care reform. Democrats to Republicans: La La La We can’t hear you. Democrats to the public: Those Republicans have no ideas Continue reading: Healthcare Debacle Summary Copyright (c) RWNJ.org RWNJ Celebs on Healthcare admin — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 12:56:50 +0000 This is in response to a left-wing celeb video on healthcare.
