Well folks, the health care bill has passed in the house today, 220 for the bill, and 215 against. You can also thank one of the traitor republicrats- Anh "Joseph" Cao- for voting for the 1,990 page monstrosity. I had a feeling the bill would pass in the House even though I was praying that it would not. I do want to thank all the Republicans who voted against the bill as well as the Democrats who also voted no on the bill.( 176 Republicans and 39 Democrats voted no on this $1.2 trillion legislation)
Congressman Mike Mcintyre, of North Carolina's 7th District voted against the bill, and here is what he had to say as to why he voted the way he did (from his website ):
Washington, D.C. - Congressman Mike McIntyre, who will vote no on the health care bill in the U.S. House of Representatives, released the following statement:
“The need for health care reform is clear, but the focus should be on lowering the skyrocketing costs of health care, bringing down the cost of premiums, and ensuring access and affordability of health care for all.
“During these tough economic times, I could not support this bill because it was flawed in four major ways:
1. It costs way too much money – more than $1 trillion dollars on top of a $12 trillion national debt;
2. It does not take the steps necessary to effectively bring down long-term health care costs;
3. It raises too much in new taxes and imposes new requirements that will harm the ability of too many small businesses to compete and create jobs; and
4. It tries to do too much too soon instead of targeted changes that can immediately help people.

4. It tries to do too much too soon instead of targeted changes that can immediately help people.
“Instead, we should tackle health care reform in targeted ways. Those include:
1. strengthening Medicare and Medicaid;
2. improving Medicare reimbursement rates for rural health providers,
3. expanding the use of electronic medical records;
4. expanding and strengthening community health centers;
5. allowing small business owners to join pools of coverage to access better insurance rates;
6. allowing states to form compacts to allow the purchase of insurance across state lines; and
7. providing tax credits for long-term care.

“These are just some of the many examples where we can make needed health care changes without further bankrupting the country, and I remain committed to meaningful reform that maintains cost-effective principles that put our nation again on the path to reform.”
At the protest in Washington D.C. on thursday, Republican Minority Leader John Boehner said "This bill is the greatest threat to freedom that I have seen in the 19 years I've been here in Washington." Clearly there are millions of Americans who feel the same way, although the media would never reflect this truth. Mark Levin, a Talk Radio Host on 610 WTVN also attended the Protest on Washington and had this to say about the Obama Bunch : "They want to control you, they want to control your children, your parents, your doctor, your nurse,- the bottom line is they want to play God, and decide who lives and who dies!"
This all is bad enough, but what really makes me so upset is the fact that the Obama Politburo didn't even have enough respect for our Military soldiers who experienced a great loss at Fort Hood when a terrorist attack ended up with 13 dead and 30 or more wounded. No black arm bands, or a break in business as usual, but instead PUSH, PUSH, PUSH!!!!! They would rather push their Social medicine than to mourn a great loss here on American soil! And have you noticed how careful they are not to characterize this horrific attack as a "terrorist" attack? Just because the man yelled "Allah u ackbar!" doesn't mean it's a terror attack? Hogwash!
People, the bill still has to go to the Senate, and there are millions of us who are opposed to this Obamacare takeover- so let's tighten up our bootlaces and get ready to rumble! Call your Senators and congressmen and women and demand that they vote no on this Obamanation! Remind them of who they work for! We cannot afford this bill! The freedom of America is on the line. If they nationalize this bill, our very lives and bodies will be nationalized! Please stand up in unison, regardless of your ethnicity, religion or creed.
Finally, I want to leave those who would believe that Obama, Pelosi, and the rest of the Politburo are out for the people's best interest, with a passage from Mark Levin's book, Liberty and Tyranny (pg 8):
"....the Statist has an insatiable appetite for control. His sights are set on his next meal even before he has fully digested his last. He is constantly agitating for government action. And in furtherance of that purpose,the Statist speaks in the tongue of the demagogue, concocting one pretext and grievance after another to manipulate public perceptions and build popular momentum for the divestiture of liberty and property from its rightful possessors. The industrious, earnest, and successful are demonized as perpetrators of various offenses against the public good, which justifies governmental intervention on behalf of an endless parade of "victims." In this way, the perpetrator and the victim are subordinated to the government's authority- the former by outright theft, the latter by a dependent existence. In truth, both are made victims by the real perpetrator, the Statist."
