Hello Americans,
People the liberal democrats have no intention of listening, or honoring your wish in health-care reform. This is not about health-care reform, it is about transforming our health-care system. It is about control, and let me tell you, you have already lost control. Nov. 2008 the election results saw obama as the winner of that contest. Since then he has been steam rolling his Socialist agenda. With the $787 billion Stimulus Bill obama took control of Americas finances, control the money you control the future. Look at the radicals, socialist, tax cheats that surround him, and who help make Americas policy now. Liberal democrats just rubber stamps what obama wants done and congress is powers less to stop it, and Americans are to uninformed and disassociated to get involved.
I received this notice today, does anyone care? Does anyone have an idea of what America will look like when obama is done 4 years from now? Does anyone care about the future of their children, or grand children's future?
Richard,
The Senate Finance Committee is currently in recess until tomorrow(Tuesday) morning at 9:30, when it is expected they will begin tomove what Sen. Mitch McConnell calls "a trillion-dollar experiment that cuts Medicare, raises taxes, and threatens the health care options that millions of Americans enjoy."
Yes, Richard, it is that bad.
A look at the amendments that were shot-down late last week should serve as warning that unless citizens--and especially seniors get involved it stands to get much worse.
Last Friday morning, Sen. Jon Kyl offered up an amendment prohibiting the federal government from limiting consumer choice. His amendment failed 9-14.
With the influx of amendments and changes to the bill, Sen. John Cornyn wanted the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) to re-score it for accuracy. His amendment failed 11-12.
Sen. John Ensign's amendment that any "czar" handling health care issues shall be subjected to the Senate confirmation process also failed 10-13.
From just these failed amendments, alone it's clear that this administration isn't interested in free market solutions, or our rights to choose what plan fits our personal needs. They aren't interested in accountability and transparency, or in working within the delicate balance of power created by the constitution. Instead, they are willing to use a health czar if need be to skirt the checks and balances!
Richard, everything about this plan is corrupt. Everything about this plan is designed to increase the federal government's control and power over you and I. And the ones who stand to lose the most?
Senior citizens will endure reduced benefits and fewer choices.
Working families who will see a sharp rise in insurance premiums (upwards of $4,500 for a family of four), and steep tax increases.
Small businesses will shoulder the burden of more than $420 billion in new taxes--hamstringing growth and slowing the economy even further.
+ + Action: Send a Message to the Senate Finance Committee!
This is not a plan for America, and as Americans it is our responsibility to tell law makers in Washington as much.
We can't allow Congress to hash out the details of thiscomplicated plan without being involved--every painful step of the way.

2NEW? - Healthcare Insurance Czar (7/7/09)
• President Barack Obama's congressional allies want to create a powerful insurance commissioner to oversee medical plans nationwide. State regulators say it would duplicate what they do without better protecting consumers
• The health choices commissioner would head an independent agency, as envisioned in the 800-page draft bill released by House Democratic leaders. The Health Choices Administration would regulate a revamped insurance marketplace and be expected to deliver Obama's promise of affordable coverage for all.
• Decisions made in the commissioner's office would reverberate not just through insurance company boardrooms, but family kitchens as well.
• State regulators, who traditionally have overseen the industry, say a federal commissioner is unnecessary.
• "We have concerns that a federal commissioner would not provide adequate protection for our consumers, and that the bill as drafted duplicates functions that exist in states across the nation," said Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner Kim Holland.
History of American Czars:
George W. Bush• Reports of 14 Czars over 8 years (or 96 months)
Ronald Reagan• Reports of 3 Czars over 8 years (or 96 month)
Obama• Reports of 34 Czars over ½ year (or 6 months)
At this rate, we will have:272 czars in Obama’s fist term (48 months)
544 czars if he lasts two terms (96 months)

You be the Judge
Fellow Americans;
I came across this article by David Horowitz and frankly it scares the hell out of me. Look closely at it, does it remind you of anything.

Font: 10pt 12pt 14pt 16pt 18pt 20pt 22pt Posted at 12:00 AM on Tuesday, August 18, 2009 by David Horowitz Boring From Within: Alinsky, Beck, Satan and Me, Part III
Conservatives think of war as a metaphor when applied to politics. For radicals the war is real. That is why partisans of the left set out to destroy their opponents, not just refute their arguments. It is also why they never speak the truth. Deception for them is a military tactic in a war that is designed to eliminate their opponents.
Alinsky's Rules for Radicals is first of all a broadside against the New Left. What Alinsky attacks about the New Left is its honesty -- something I've always regarded as its only redeeming feature. While American Communists -- the Old Left -- pretended to be Jeffersonian Democrats and "progressives" and formed "popular fronts" with liberals to "defend democracy," we in the New Left disdained their deception and regarded it as weakness. To distinguish ourselves from these Old Leftists, we said we were revolutionaries and proud of it.
"Up against the wall motherfucker" was a typical New Left slogan, telegraphing exactly how we felt about people who opposed us. The most basic principle of Alinsky's advice to radicals is, lie to your opponents and potential opponents and disarm them by pretending to be moderates, liberals. This has been the most potent weapon of the left since the end of the Sixties. Racists like Al Sharpton and Jeremiah Wright posing as civil rights activists, radicals like Henry Waxman and Barney Frank posing as liberals. The mark of their success is how conservatives collude in the deception. Even Fox's Megan Kelly, brilliant in all other things, still refers to the congressional socialists holding out for a total government takeover of the medical system as "liberals.")
Alinsky chides New Leftists for being "rhetorical radicals" rather than "realistic" ones. New Leftists scared people but didn't have the power to back up their threats. Alinsky's manual is designed to teach radicals how to manipulate the public into thinking they're harmless, in order to accumulate enough power to achieve the radical agenda -- to burn the system down and replace it with a socialist gulag.
Make no mistake, this -- a totalitarian future -- is the real objective of Alinsky and his radical disciples who call themselves liberals and bore from within. Alinsky writes of "the "revolutionary force" of the 1960s, that its activists were "one moment reminiscent of the idealistic early Christians yet they also urge violence and cry 'Burn the system down.!' They have no illusions about the system, but plenty of illusions about the way to change our world. It is to this point that I have written this book." Radicals who call for burning down America's democracy "have no illusions about the system"! They just don't know how to go about doing it.
Alinsky's book could be called Machiavellian Rules for Radicals, because it is all about deception, about keeping others in the dark about your intentions until it is too late. Alinsky even acknowledges Machiavelli as his model: "What follows is for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be." These are the famous lines that Michelle Obama made in her own Democratic Convention speech.
Alinsky continues: "The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. [I will have more to say about these Haves in the next blog.] Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away."
Alinsky's agenda is the same agenda as that of the radicals who called for "Revolution Now" in the 1960s. He just has a more clever way of doing it. If you want socialized medicine, don't say you want socialized medicine. Say you want "Medicare for all," as though transforming a partial government insurance for the indigent into a total system required for everyone wouldn't transform the program into a pillar of the totalitarian future.
Actually there's nothing new in Alinsky's strategy of appearing moderate in order to disarm your opposition. That was what Stalin's popular front was all about -- communists pretending to be democrats and forming allianaces with liberals in order to acquire enough power to shut the democracy down. And, in fact, it was Lenin's idea too, which is where Alinsky got it in the first place. Lenin is one of Alinsky's heroes -- Castro is another -- and he invokes the master in the course of chiding the rhetorical radicals of the New Left over a famous Sixties slogan, which was itself lifted from Mao. Mao's slogan said political power comes out of the barrel of a gun. Comments Alinsky:
"'Power comes out of the barrel of a gun' is an absurd rallying cry when the other side has all the guns. Lenin was a pragmatist; when he returned from what was then Petrograd from exile, he said that the Bolsheviks stood for getting power through the ballot but would reconsider after they got the guns."
In other words, vote for us now, but when we are the government it will be another story. One man, one vote, one time. This is the political credo of all totalitatarians, including Hitler, who was elected Chancellor and then made himself Fuerher and shut the voting booths down.
Lenin was not a pragmatist (how fatuous): he was a Machievellian monster who was engaged in a total war which justified every means to achieve its goals. Alinsky is marching to the same drummer. What he really means is that Lenin was a realist and understood how to use the power he had, and, when it was not enough to crush his opposition, to make up for its deficiencies with deception. "These rules [for radicals]" Alinsky explains, "make the difference between being a realistic radical and a being a rhetorical one who uses the tired old words and slogans, calls the police 'pig' or 'white fascist racist' or 'motherfucker' and has so stereotyped himself that others react by saying, 'Oh he's one of those' and promptly turn off." Get the power and then you can call them (and do with them) what you want.
"This failure of many of our younger activists to understand the art of communication has been disastrous," writes Alinsky. What he really means is their failure to understand the art of mis-communication. This is the art that teaches radicals who are trying impose a socialist health care system in a country whose people understand that socialism destroys freedom, not to sell it as socialism, but to sell it as a "public option," or as "Medicare for all."
What this adds up to is a call to revolutionaries who want to destroy the system, to first work within the system until you can accumulate enough power to destroy it. In the movement, we used to call this the strategy of "boring from within." Like termites, you eat away at the foundations until the building collapses.
Alinsky's advice is: Don't confront the system as an opposing army; join it and undermine it as a fifth column force: "'That means working within the system." That means that "any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people."
It is first necessary to sell the public on "change," the "audacity of hope," and "yes we can." You do this by proposing moderate changes which open the door to your radical agendas. Says Alinsky:
"Remember: once you organize people around something as commonly agreed upon as pollution, then an organized people is on the move. From there it's a short and natural step to political pollution, to Pentagon pollution."Not an accident that the new Green Czar appointed by Obama to jump start the anti-pollution revolution, Van Jones, is a self-described communist.
David Horowitz is the founder of The David Horowitz Freedom Center and author of the new book, One Party Classroom.
Please ask questions of your Senators, House of Representatives in Congress. Ask them what they are doing? Why are they fulfilling their oath of office - protecting America, the U.S. Constitution , and the American people from their enemies both domestic and foreign? Let them know you are holding accountable and that will become more evident as they come up for re-election in 2010.
Time to get serious Americans these are the most dangerous time in the last 50 years.

Obama’s Imperial Decree: Target Oklahoma
I am passing on a clip by -Kevin Gutzman, an American historian and New York Times bestselling author. Reads as follows: "Remember the good old days, when one only had to watch out for the Federal Government’s twisted interpretation of the commerce clause to justify tyranny?
Well those days seem to be long gone. The Obama Administration has been employing an old tactic lately – what some might call an imperial threat – and they’re not doing it overseas, either.
STATES UNDER THREAT
The state of Oklahoma is now the target of a direct challenge from US Attorney General Eric Holder, who is using the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as justification to violate Oklahoma’s sovereignty as affirmed by the Tenth Amendment to the US Constitution.
In a letter written to the State Attorney General in April, the Federal government used aggressive language, bringing up the possibility of withholding Federal funds appropriated for Oklahoma. The reason? A proposed amendment to the State Constitution, which requires voter approval, that would make English the official language of the State.
“What it indicates is the Federal Government’s contempt for the states, in this case Oklahoma, and for the idea of federal - as opposed to national - government. AG Holder believes that Oklahoma is an administrative subdivision of the USA, and that it is perfectly right for him to coerce Oklahomans to do his will. Who cares whether he has ever been to Oklahoma, met an Oklahoman, or thought about Oklahoma?” said Kevin Gutzman, an American historian and New York Times bestselling author.
Oklahoma is not alone as a state challenged by central authority in recent months.
If we keep with our present apathy towards what government is doing soon we won't have to worry, because we will be like Nazi Germany and have no rights at all. We will have to keep our thoughts and opinions to ourselves and pray we are not thrown into slave camps.
Do we have anyone that is willing to stand up for our Constitution, Bill of Rgihts, America or is the work to hard for mosat of us to keep the Republic which we are charge with. God gave us this Country and these rights and now He is warning us we are about to lose them forever. Why have we ignored Him for so long.
Last Call!!
