Letter to Pro-Obama Health Care Supporter

I responded to a friend about health care reform, and thought it was good enough for you to read as well.

Hi ______,

I really appreciate your heart and I know where you're coming from.

So, let's start off with where we agree: 1) we agree there's a problem with affordable health care; 2) we support health care reform.

Our only real difference is how we as a nation go about reforming health care.

The bills that have been proposed by the House and Senate carry with them a major cost to the nation, through raising taxes, reducing services, growing our national debt, lowering our medical standards & clamping upon us an intrusive control over our medical decisions, that literally pushes us toward socialism. Plus, did you know, the bills do not provide coverage for all anyway. After all is said and done, after the trillions of dollars invested into this, millions of people will still be left without coverage.

But, here's something else we agree with: health care costs are astronomical! But why? It's mainly because of malpractice insurance that doctors have to pay to protect themselves from frivolous and expensive lawsuits.

Knowing this, why don't we pass one simple bill -- without adding cost to the nation!

TORT REFORM.

Tort reform is putting caps, or limits, on the amount of money doctors can be sued by patients. THIS IS WHY costs are so high -- when every little misdiagnosis turns into a major lawsuit which sends premiums through the roof. Doctors, needing to protect themselves, pay expensive malpractice insurance, the cost of which are then passed onto the patients.

The Obama Administration targets insurance providers as greedy villains. But did you know that trial lawyers are Obama's biggest financial supporters? This is why the Obama Administration rejects Tort Reform -- it would seriously impact the amount of money made by trial lawyers and thereby curtail Obama's and the democrats' campaign funding.

So, if Obama was serious about curtailing health care costs, he should start by passing a bill limiting awards for malpractice suits -- and that would cost the nation NOTHING!

Doesn't that make sense to do?

Obama rejects tort reform and, instead, creates a government bureaucracy that controls everyone's life from womb to tomb. The serious consequences of this bill include funding for abortions and denial of certain medical care to senior citizens because of their age -- despite what the White House website says!

Surely, your concern for people includes the unborn and senior citizens.

Now, let's talk about the catastrophic cost for Obama's health care reform. The nation is already squandering millions of dollars each day to foreign nations to PAY THE INTEREST on the trillions of dollars of debt we owe them. That's every day!

The US cannot sustain such crippling debt to our economy - this will certainly destroy this nation. Plus, it is already forcing the US to change our foreign policy to suit the decisions of nations we're indebted to -- as recently happened when China asked the US not to host the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama was escorted out of the back door of the White House pronto. Suppose one day the Chinese take us to task for protecting ourselves against terrorism? Proverbs says, "...the borrower is servant to the lender" (22:7).

Furthermore, you might think we're getting a free ride with government insurance, but how will it be funded? The children, and their children, born during this reform will be saddled with the debilitating debt, which will be unsustainable. This would be the first time in our nation's history that we would leave our children a country in worse shape, ladened with debt, than we had received and enjoyed.

We would be literally mortgaging away the lives of our children and grandchildren by presenting them with the price tag that puts their lives and hopes into Chapter 11.

As it stands now, the US has the best medical care in the world. People of all nations -- socialized countries included -- come here when they need good health care. That's because our government has no active control over personal and private medical procedures, while every socialized country has government running mom and pop's medical affairs. We cannot emulate the socialist system.

There are other ways for us to reform health care: Obama's plans will put the nation in cardiac arrest -- which, unfortunately, his health care reform does not cover.

We must vote against these bills.

Love you Guys....blessings to you.

Lou

THIS JUST IN...

And, now for the news....

EVIL IS GOOD

We’re living in an age when it seems most people do not know the difference between good and evil anymore.

There is no more good. There is no more evil. Everything is homogenized into the middle. Everyone has so-called rights to be as profane and sinful as their imagination takes them.

We, as a nation, didn’t get here all at once. It’s been a slippery slide downward since the 1960s. There was a time when you could say prayer in school: now opponents have demonized God in the classrooms and declared that prayer in school violates separation of church and state.

Our founding fathers never thought that.

There was a time when drunks were sinful; now they constitute a disease.

There was a time when same-sex physical relations was sinful; now it’s a lifestyle choice.

There was a time when most college campuses held the Bible in high esteem; now educators discredit it as unreliable and relegate it as a fable.

There was a time when people honored men and women of Christian faith; now they’re despised.

On the international stage, Iran’s leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad defiantly denies the holocaust against the Jews ever occurred; then why is he given the honor of speaking at the United Nations?

President Barack Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize, not for having done something laudatory, but for political reasons – essentially because the Nobel Committee sees Obama not as a staunch defender of the country, as was President George Bush, but as an internationalist – as one who will gladly dismantle America’s superpower status and reject American exceptionalism.

Take a good look at the political scene today and you will see politicians brazenly speak lies before the news cameras: and the media doesn’t investigate the truth, but simply reports on what the politician says is the truth. Even worse, is when the news media takes on an agenda or a cause; like man-made Global Warming and reports it as truth, or Congress’ socialization of America and reports it as if it were glorious.

Does anybody see anything wrong in this culture where any diabolical lie and evil-intention gets equal authority with truth and righteousness? Truly we’re living in a time which the scriptures denounce:

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

(Isa 5:20 ASV)

HEALTH CARE DECEPTION: Impassioned Explanation of Why the Stakes Are So High!

Susan, a simple housewife from Glendale, California, called the Rush Limbaugh radio show today and gave an articulate and impassioned appeal for a return to the traditions that made this country great.

She gives a no-holds-barred denunciation of the methods and strategies of how the democratic-ruled congress wants to sandbag the American people, with a crooked, expensive health care bill that's going to impose burdensome regulations and strangle our economy.

She laments about the plight of the innocent Michigan mom who was babysitting children and the state of Michigan came down on her, accusing her of running an illegal day care. Susan says that this is how the government will come down on all of us, if we don't comply with their health care regulations.

Rush posted her discourse here. If that link is broke, you can go to Rush's page here -- there's also a transcript there. It's well worth a listen...and after you do, you'll be inspired to call your Senators and Representative.

Oh, this just in....I got a video of the exchange and here it is.

WRITE CONGRESS TO OPPOSE SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE!

During this summer recess, your senators and congressmen need to hear from you, otherwise they will try to push socialized health care on this country -- something that will have serious social and economic consequences for years to come.

I've made it very simple for everyone. It only takes a few minutes to make a big difference in the direction the country is going. You'll be glad you did something before it's too late.

Write them a letter; you can use my letter below as a sample. Update it for your own purposes. You can add your own points, but please be respectful.

Here is a sample letter I’m sending to my Congressman, in the first district in NY:


August 11, 2009

The Honorable Timothy Bishop
3680 Route 112, Suite C
Coram, NY 11727

Dear Representative:

As a taxpayer with adequate health coverage, I oppose Congress’s attempt to push socialized health care in this country that I believe will have serious socio-economic ramifications for years to come.

First of all, we can’t afford this bill. The breadth and scope with which this administration is increasing our national debt is astonishingly unprecedented, especially when we as families have to be tightening our belts during these recessionary times.

In general, I am opposed to any health care reform that resembles socialized health care, and in particular, I am opposed to the call for a single-payer system, funding for abortions, funding for illegal aliens (thereby giving them legal status to remain here), the glaring omission from the bill of tort reform, as well as the stripping of our fundamental right to health care decisions between family and doctors and replacing them with decisions made by bureaucrats in Washington.

I pray for this country and for you, as well, and hope that you would oppose this bill towards socialized health care.

Sincerely,
Lou Comunale

ROBIN HOOD OBAMA: TAKE FROM THE RICH AND...

Redistribute wealth: take from the rich and give to the poor.

That's what Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama wants to do with our wealth. Take a look at this video and see how Barack wants to bring socialism into the U.S. presidency.

Here's the transcript from the meeting between Joe the plumber, of Ohio, and Barack (from Fox News):

"'Your new tax plan is going to tax me more, isn't it?'" the plumber asked, complaining that he was being taxed 'more and more for fulfilling the American dream.'

'It's not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance for success too,' Obama responded. 'My attitude is that if the economy's good for folks from the bottom up, it's gonna be good for everybody ... I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody.'"

CNN has asked this poll question about whether you agree that the income tax system should be used to "spread the wealth." (As of this writing, out of 6500 votes, 43% say yes, 57% say no.)
