Thomas Jefferson

"We must make our choice between economy and liberty or confusion and servitude...If we run into such debts, we must be taxed in our meat and drink, in our necessities and comforts, in our labor and in our amusements...if we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people, under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy."--Thomas Jefferson


"America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. "
--John Quincy Adams
US diplomat & politician (1767 - 1848)

“Since the general civilization of mankind, I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpation”
-James Madison at the Virginia Ratification Debates
"With respect to the words "general welfare," I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators."

- James Madison's Letter to James Robertson, April 20, 1831

A Few "Tidbits" from the House Health Bill!!

The ugly details on the ObamaCare plan are starting to come out and I have been trying to read some of this gargantuan 1000+ page bill and doing other research. I will begin to post some of the items that Obama and others don't want you to know!! If you think you are in support of this garbage PLEASE read these postings and do your own checking. This is SCARY stuff!!!

1. Page 16: Once the legislation is enacted, it will become ILLEGAL for private companies to write NEW health policies.
2. If you leave your employer that is supplying you with coverage, you will NOT be able to get a private policy at your new employer. You will have to go into the public option (One of Obama's way of slowly bleeding the private industry dry over time and forcing you into a public plan).
3. Abortions will be paid for by the legislation (payback to Planned PArenthood and the baby killing business).
4. Illegal aliens WILL get coverage for FREE.
5. Union retirement healthcare funds will be SUBSIDIZED by you and I in this bill. (Obama payback to his union buds at UAW and SEIU!)
6. Pages 425-430: Elderly/Terminal patients will have "end of life" counseling and doctors will be be "compensated" for encouraging these conversations. Watch out Grandma, the Obama Death Panel is coming for you! Check out section 1233 of the bill.(Can you say "rationing" OR "Just go home and take the painkiller Gramps instead of getting the procedure")
7. Government "child counselors" can come into your home to provide child rearing advice to parents. But of course, it will be voluntary--yeah right.

And as an extra note, Obama himself has been quoted on tape prior to the election that it wouldn't be easy to eliminate the private insurance market, but he could "envision" a time 10-15 years down the road that it would be gone and a single payer in its place.

These are just a few of the scary details. I will continue to publish more as I read. Again, do your own research and READ THE BILL--many of the lying thieves in Congress (including my rep) certainly don't!!

  2. I HAVE read the facts you brain-dead Obama-bot zombie liberal wimp! I have them stated here, I have read the bill, I know what the Constiitution says, I know what our Founding Fathers wrote about and envisioned.
    Instead of telling me I don't know what I am talking about why don't you counterpoint what I have said one by one?? You can't because you don't know and like most liberals, all you can do when presented with the facts and logic is attack and criticize.
    Barack Obama and the modern "progressive" movement have MUCH in common with Marxism and Socialism and the tenets of old eastern Europe--radical, fascist leftists--and that is excatly who Obama is.

    Get your God damned hand out of my wallet and your corrupt government out of my life. If you want to live in socialism, move to Europe! This is the United States of America!

    As James Madison once said: "I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations." (by the way, he was one of our Founders, just wanted to remind you of that since I know your left wing education probably left out that teaching and because you on the left despise our Founders so much)
