“He was guilty of nothing, except that he earned his own fortune and never forgot that it was his.“ The concept contained within that phrase is what has set America apart, and made her the greatest nation on Earth. And it is the systematic attack on that concept, that this website is dedicated to fighting. This website is NOT devoted to making people “wealthy”, but rather to fighting the notion that the “wealth” they DO have needs to be “redistributed”.
This is cuts through the huge mountain of Crap in CrappyCare and exposes what this is really all about (hint: it aint about improving your health or saving you money!):
“Video: If ObamaCare is so good …
posted at 12:15 pm on November 9, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
Greg Hengler picks his favorite moment from the House debate on Saturday as the moment that Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL) asked the question that could easily have been asked twenty years ago today at the Berlin Wall. If the ObamaCare proposal is so good, why do you have to imprison people who don’t want to participate?
It now looks like Hoffman may have been punked on election night in NY-23.
Corrections are coming in and EVERY correction is in his favor. WHY? Because in multiple cases across the District his totals were sent in as “ZERO”. The odds of multiple Precincts reporting his totals as ZERO? Pretty slim. And there have several HUGE shifts as they re-certify the numbers.
So many corrections that he may in fact WIN the election. (slim chance, but possible)
Hoffman conceded on election night because KEY Precincts showed him with dismal results…and we now know why.
Was Hoffman “punked” into condeding? And if he DID receive more votes, will Queen Nancy unseat Owens? Great questions…stay tuned.
Mary told me to leave this here…
Via Instapundit comes word that the federal government’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM) intends to purge the federal government of Republican civil servants all in the name of purify the federal bureaucracy.
You can read the OPM memo here.
It is a typical Washington process that many political appointees are able to take jobs within the civil service once their political appointment expires — usually at the conclusion of one administration. What often happens as well is Congressional staffers, before an election or shortly thereafter, will move over to the Executive Branch placed into the civil service, in effect, by appointment.
#2 But according to the statist pimps of CrappyCare we have 45,000 dying each year for “lack of health insurance”….
First, I have never know that “lack of health insurance” actually was a virus or something that made you physically ill lol. It would seem that you would still have to die the ole fashioned way from cancer, etc
Second, the number is totally made up and is based on slanted left-wing think tank old/bad data. I could pull a number out of my keester, oh lets 123456 etc, that would be just a accurate (that is to say not at all).
Third, assuming this bogus number of 45000 is true (and its not), its actually PROVES just how great our private medical care and health insurance system is! For a country of 300 million plus citizens, 45000 is far far far less then 1% which is to say nearly absolute zero!
Finally, it has been proven that MILLIONS die in socialist medicine countries annually from rationing and substandard care.
The House plan for ObamaCare that passed on Saturday contained a plethora of new and increased taxes, which the Americans for Tax Reform listed in an effort to make Americans aware of the burdensome cost of the bill. The Wall Street Journal reports today on one aspect of the new taxes that ATR missed. The Pelosi Plan, if passed by the Senate, would increase capital-gains taxes 69% from their present level, making them higher than any time since the first Clinton term:
House Democrats are funding their new entitlement with a 5.4% surtax on incomes above $500,000 for individuals and above $1 million for joint filers. The surcharge is intended to snag the greatest number of taxpayers to raise some $460.5 billion, and so the House has written it to apply to modified adjusted gross income. That means it includes both capital gains and dividends.
See the common theme here – the rich and politically connencted ie the new elite (think Soros, wall street, big industries/companies like GM and Wal-mar, big unions like Seiu, tort lawyers, big pharma, big health insurance, government technocrats, and washington Pols) make out like bandits!
Who gets the shaft with CrappyCare – the Taxpayer who foots the bill, the non-politcally connected who will get a full socialist sytem in 5 to 10 years, the young who will be fleeced for insurance they dont need, the SR who will get rationed care, polically weak and unpopular groups like Veterans and small business who will get the bill too and rationed care, state governments who will pick up a huge tab but will lose all control of their HC systems……all health care will now be a matter of collective politics where only the well-funded and politically connected get taken care of!
Essentially, CrappyCare turns the American Revolution on it head!
The people will no longer be soverign but subjects of an elititest group of politicians/technocrats/weathly who dictate centralized governance from DC!
Years ago I went to the doctor and she looked grim as she started speaking to me about my test results. I immediately said, “Tell me what’s wrong.” She hemmed and hawed a bit, I insisted, and finally she said, “Your test results are compatible with a tumor of the pituitary gland.”
*gulp*
“What should I do?”
“You need an MRI ASAP.”
The next morning I got the MRI and everything worked out. But can you imagine being told something like this and then having to wait eight or nine months for the MRI…?!?!?!
This thing is a disaster on stilts, a veritable medical Hindenburg…
#18 You would have been the first “ghost poster” on BJG as you would be in the Great Beyond right now!
Thats exactly how they Death Panel you in socialist/single payer countries – huge waiting list for procedures like you cite that make the underlying condition deadly by the time its detected!
Millions die and it goes unnoticed since the dead cant complain nor does anyone one citizen who gets the shaft have the political pull to do anything about it!
Can you imagine how many tens of thousands of more Canadians would die if they could make a short trip here for medical care?
The pimps of statist HC talk about it as being a “Moral Imperative” to have government run or paid for HC since it will be “equal” – but how moral is it really to have millions die earlier then needed and in more pain? How equal is it when you only have equal access to a waiting list while the rich and politically connected cheat the system or go to free market medical countries for the best treatment?
Can some big time leftist troll HC reform pimper type answer this?
—
I know I’m not supposed to jump to any conclusion but reminds me of a certain couple jokers who did similar things in Europe in the 30s. That would out just dandy as I recall.
As several poster said on here since the vote was scheduled, the outcome was a given – there are no such things as “moderate” statists/D – it was only who would be given the chance to best lie to/fool the suckers, er uh voters again!
#22 Exactly, if you part of a politically unpopular group you will be shafted. If you are politically connected or part of a politcally popular or powerful group you will be rewarded. The rich will always come out ahead of course…..

The worst part of HellCare is the RATIONING it would impose
Waiting lists and rationing would end up costing hundreds of thousands of lives

3. Hoffman should demand a recount, that’s if one has not started already. Plus the absentee ballots too.

When will the press ask Pelosi what happens if Hoffman does win?
Answer: I faint in disbelief that they had the balls to ask.
