Straight up, LETS just call it what it is, it is nothing more then an HMO on steroids, big Government big profits, and poor America. ROUND and ROUND it go s, where it stops only Government knows.

Like the old saying, DEATH and TAXES, WHO, has the final say if this bill PASSES.

Dear Readers,

It has been over a year since President Obama announced his plans for comprehensive health reform.

Since the announcement, as Americans learned more and more about the Democrats’ health care bill, opposition to the left’s plans for big government health care have grown and grown.

It started with the explosion of outrage at town hall meetings over the bill’s cuts to Medicare to pay for new bureaucracies and programs.

It gained steam when Americans realized the frightening potential for “death panels” when you give government the power to deny care based on budgetary concerns. Read the rest of this entry »

Lets sweep these high pressure people out and get back to a Country that is not run by SPECIAL INTEREST, and LOBBIES T, one that is run by the people for the people.

Lets gets back to the late 40s to the early 60s when you could buy some thing before the greed started. At least people could afford to live on what they made.

Lets get this Country back to prosperity where it used to be, so you have lower wages but you also have lower taxes, then maybe more people will be put back to work. If people work money comes in, people don’t work no money comes in, so which do you want jobs with big wages and high taxes, or lower wages with lower taxes. And lower wages mean lower prices, it is time to stop being greedy, this gos for CEO, put that money back into the company, prices will come down and people will be able to afford to buy your products, this covers every thing like, homes, cars, insurance, food and so forth.That gos for the Government, live with what you have and nothing more.

If you’ve read the press releases being put out by Washington these days, you’d be convinced that the big bad Bush-caused recession of 2008-2009 is now safely beyond us.

Tain’t so.

If fact, the hoary mess which began under the last days of Bush & Democrats guarantees that Obama & Democrats will continue to take us down the rat-hole of national bankruptcy.

Here’s why.

The problem dates back a long way – to the “New Deal” days of Franklin Roosevelt and the “Great Society” days of Lyndon Johnson.  Big spenders both: of your money.

In 1933-1936 FDR created his big wave of so-called “progressive” legislation.  The Agricultural Adjustment Act became law in May, 1933.  The AAA paid farmers to not grow food.  It still does.

In 1935, the Social Security Act created Washington’s Ponzi scheme, misrepresented to the voters as an insurance retirement program.  It promised to invest worker payments in safe securities to pay for their future retirement.

Instead, SS payments – really taxes – are paid into the Federal Treasury and spent that year.  The Government then issues Treasury Notes (IOU’s) to a mythical Social Security “Trust Fund”.  In other words, the Government’s left pocket pays its right pocket with IOU’s from your pocket.

As Climategate scandals continue to expose widespread fraud in the global warming “scientific” community, three major companies this week announced their withdrawal from the United States Climate Action Partnership (USCAP), a lobbying group of businesses and radical environmentalists that “have come together to call on the federal government to quickly enact strong national legislation to require significant reductions of greenhouse gas emissions.”

BP America, ConocoPhillips and Caterpillar were the largest companies to withdraw from the group this week revealing a refreshing new boldness from companies once browbeaten by radical environmentalists into supporting “global warming” legislation.

Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), top Republican on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, said he wasn’t surprised by this turn of events.

“With cap-and-trade virtually dead this year and the credibility of the UN’s global warming science collapsing, it is no surprise that companies are questioning whether job-killing global warming legislation — no matter how beneficial to their own bottom lines — is really a sound policy after all,” Inhofe told HUMAN EVENTS. “They apparently now see that it’s not. The American people support alternative energy — but not with policies such as cap-and-trade that tax the energy they use now. The best option, the one that Republicans support, is to use all of our domestic energy resources in a way that creates jobs, strengthens energy security, and keeps energy affordable and reliable.” Read the rest of this entry »

Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference Thursday afternoon:

Thank you to Jay and to Scott for those generous introductions. Both these men have made real contributions to our nation. It’s good to be back at CPAC. I can’t think of an audience I’d rather be addressing today.

I spent the weekend in Vancouver. As always, the Olympic Games were inspiring. But in case you didn’t hear the late-breaking news, the gold medal in the downhill was taken away from American Lindsey Vonn. It was determined that President Obama is going downhill faster than she is.

I’m not telling you something you don’t know when I say that our conservative movement took a real hit in the 2008 elections. The victors were not exactly gracious in their big win: Media legs were tingling. Time Magazine’s cover pictured the Republican elephant and declared it an endangered species. The new president himself promised change of biblical proportion. And given his filibuster-proof Senate and lopsided House, he had everything he needed to deliver it.

They won, we lost. But you know, you learn a lot about people when you see how they react to losing. We didn’t serve up excuses or blame our fellow citizens. Instead, we listened to the American people, we sharpened our thinking and our arguments, we spoke with greater persuasiveness, we took our message to more journals and airwaves, and in the American tradition, some even brought attention to our cause with rallies and Tea parties.

Today, U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) spoke at the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) 2010 Conference. Below are his remarks as prepared for delivery

Thank you David and thanks to the American Conservative Union for organizing this critical mass of conservative hope and change.

I am excited about the prospects for conservative Republicans.

Three years of a Democrat majority and just one year of President Obama have awakened Americans and led millions to become more passionate advocates for freedom.

This has created a wave of new Republicans who are embracing the energy and passion of the American people.

The Democrats’ arrogance and audacious power grabs have made Americans stand up and say, “Enough is enough.”

We now see all too clearly that the hope and change the Democrats had in mind was nothing more than a retread of the failed and discredited socialist policies that have been the enemy of freedom for centuries all over the world. Read the rest of this entry »
