At long last!  President Obama has found his niche as the new video professor.  Here, he walks you through the few, simple tools commencing the freedom choke that is ObamaCare. 

It’s the complete tutorial, replete with sappy letters and video clips from anxious families who are relieved that the video professor is FINALLY stopping those evil insurance companies from denying coverage to children! 

And don’t miss the segment that helps small business owners learn about and browse the fees they’ll incur when their revenues don’t cover the new employer mandates.

Oh, and the bonus section about how your kids can stay in diapers and leach off your health care plans until they’re 26! 

And remember:  He’s gonna put you in control of your health care… (just keep saying it, sooner or later you’ll believe it). 

Push “play.”  Relax.  Learn in the comfort of your own home exactly what YOU can do online to facilitate the citizen control that’s about to consume your lives.

There’s something for everyone at www.healthcare.gov!   Just a few, simple tools…

On July 6, President Obama used “recess” to appoint a new administrator, Donald Berwick, for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).  By using a recess appointment, he conveniently bypassed the traditional and customary Senate confirmation process.  Wonder why?  His quote trail is so Marxist even Obama didn’t have confidence his own Democrat majority Senate would confirm this blatant destroyer of freedom. 

Watch, read, and learn…

In the following video, his words:

• “the darkness of private enterprise”
• “any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized, and humane must, must redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate” 
• “excellent health care is by definition, redistribution”

Read Meet Donald Berwick and learn more about his love for socialized medicine, courtesy of Republican.Senate.Gov. Here, a sampling: 

• To Berwick, health care rationing is a fact of  life:  “The decision is not whether or not we will ration care. The decision is whether we will ration with our eyes open.”This from a June 2009  interview “Rethinking Comparative Effectiveness Research”
• The British National Health Care System is so good he fell in love with it:  “I fell in love with the NHS…to an American observer, the NHS is such a seductress.”

This nation and our freedom are too precious to allow Marxists like Berwick to destroy it.  Stay in the fight against Obama’s Marxist agenda. Go to my “Receive Alerts from Michelle” tab and sign up for my health care updates and alerts.  Together we”ll stay informed and equipped and turn this nation back.

If you’re confused about ObamaCare and want to know how it really affects you, check out the following:

The Cato Institute’s

“Bad Medicine:  A Guide to the Real Costs and Consequences of the New Health Care Law” 

US Senators/Physicians Coburn and Barrasso 100 Day Report on ObamaCare

“Bad Medicine: A Check-Up on the New Federal Health Law” (SUMMARY)  

US Senators/Physicians Coburn and Barrasso 100 Day Report on ObamaCare

“Bad Medicine:  A Check-Up on the New Federal Health Law”  (FULL REPORT PDF)

It’s been over 100 days since ObamaCare became law of the land.  ObamaCare is the largest, most intrusive, freedom-choking legislation our government has ever passed.  It is THE shoe-in for a Marxist agenda to root within our nation and culture. 

While it will eventually create an overwhelming citizen dependence upon the state, it will simultaneously destroy the most thriving, prosperous, pro-health, and pro-life health care market that has existed in human history.  If allowed to remain law, it will be the largest blow ever taken to our nation’s prosperity, freedom, and quality of life.  It is Marxism wrapped in a package of false hope. 

 An informed citizenry is equipped to act and take ownership of that which is ours.  Because of this, in addition to blogging about the health care battle, I will continue to send health care updates and alerts to you as appropriate.  At the national level, we have leaders in Congress who are taking on the charge to repeal ObamaCare.  At the state level, we have attorneys general who are joining forces in a lawsuit against the federal government based on the unconstitutional aspects of ObamaCare.  Ordinary citizens all across the nation are taking action to push back against ObamaCare.   

In summary, the majority of Americans are opposed to ObamaCare and are taking steps to push it back.  I intend to assist in this effort in every way I can by keeping ordinary Americans informed.  If you would like to receive updates from me, go directly to my Alerts tab and sign up to receive updates directly from me.  Go here now to sign up:  http://www.mom4freedom.com/?page_id=1757

Now, let’s press on and take this nation back.

Take 28 minutes to view this video from Dr. Daniel Cox. It gives you a unique perspective of ObamaCare and how it affects medical doctors.

He provides sobering statistics showing how many doctors will leave the profession because of ObamaCare. He outlines what it takes to practice as a surgeon, and how ObamaCare steamrolls right over these life saving professionals. He spurs other doctors to get involved politically and fight against this outrageous legislation.

It’s well worth your 28 minutes.

And ask yourself: Did anybody ever consult the doctors?

Going Galt: When Will Surgeons Say Enough is Enough? from Daniel Cox on Vimeo.

Forward this to as many medical doctors as you know, they must get involved!

ObamaCare will prove that Obama can’t keep its utopian promises.  Many of us already knew that.  Here’s just one example.

Obama said all along that if you like your health care, you can keep it.  What will he do when businesses opt to pay the fine in lieu of paying exorbitant health insurance premiums for its employees? Oh, that’s right… we the people can fund their health care.

Bottom line for business: Pay a fine of $2,000 per employee OR pay three to four times that in health insurance premiums? Double-digit increases in health insurance premiums are expected under Obamacare. It’s obvious what businesses will be forced to do.

See the Fox Business video and learn as Grace Marie-Turner of the Galen Institute explains this perverse consequence of an already perverse 2,700 page law called ObamaCare.

Here are our nation’s true political colors.  The vote for Obamacare was the most devastating Congressional vote ever taken to choke freedom in the United States of America. 

Check out these maps I’ve borrowed from Wikipedia (and if you read the Wikipedia summary version provisions of the bill, it’s all peaches and cream for the people… and deals with those nasty insurance companies… read the Wikipeda entry only with discernment). 

See what color your state is.  And make no mistake about it… a YES vote for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ie, Obamacare) was a vote to fundamentally shift our nation away from our founding principles and kill capitalism, freedom, and individual rights.  A YES vote was a vote to choke your personal freedom and give ultimate power over your life to the federal government.  Plain and simple.

Press on for freedom.  Never, ever give up. 

111th Congress – The Obamacare Senate Roll Call

SENATE OBAMACARE MAP KEY:

BLUE =  Two Democratic yeas

PURPLE =  One Democratic yea, one Republican nay

ORANGE =  One Republican nay, one Republican not voting

111TH Congress – The Obamacare House Roll Call by District

This is it.  The battle against Obamacare is more urgent than ever before. 
  
Healthcare will come to a vote on the House floor this week and President Obama aims to sign it into law by Friday… here’s what you must do NOW to stop Obamacare from permanently choking our precious freedoms:
  
1)      Contact the listed Representatives NOW…  This is critical: each representative listed is either undecided, or is a potential “flip vote.”  Tell them to vote no on the health care bill.
  
2)      Take this survey, and I will let all Washington politicos know how you feel about reconciliation:  http://apps.facebook.com/coloradopolitics/
  
3)      Share this with everyone on your distribution list NOW – it’s that urgent. 
  
Obama, Pelosi and Reid are stopping at nothing to pass Obamacare.  They have pulled out deliberately confusing tactics that fly in the face of the Constitution and traditional legislative policy, all in the name of urgently passing healthcare reform.  To learn more about their freedom-choking shenanigans, read the articles at the end of this post.
  
But what you must do NOW is contact the following House Representatives and tell them to vote against the health care package!
  
Thanks for your help and let’s protect freedom now,
  
Michelle

House Panel Pushes Forward With Health Care Maneuver
  
Nancy Pelosi’s strategy for passing health-care reform
  
The Health Care “Shell” Game Begins
  
The Challenge of Passing Healthcare Through Reconciliation
  

JOIN THE CAUSE TO STOP OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLAN: 

And pray without ceasing…

It’s refreshing to hear our lawmakers taking leadership roles and speaking about the real issues in the health care battle… Congressman Paul Ryan is one of those leaders who gets it.  Read the February 2010 Imprimis article adapted from a speech Congressman Ryan delivered on January 13, 2010 at a Hillsdale College event. 

Some excerpts:

“The ongoing debate over healthcare…is about what the principle of that reform ought to be.”

“Government’s constitutional obligations in regard to protecting such rights are normally met by establishing the conditions for free markets – markets which historically provide an abundance of goods and services, at an affordable cost, for the largest number.”

“…placing control of health care in the hands of government bureaucrats is not compassionate.  Bureaucrats don’t make decisions about health care according to personal need or preference;  they ration resources according to a dolla-driven social calculus.”

“The very idea of government-run health care conflicts with the American idea of a free society and the constitutional priniciples underlying it – the principles of individual rights and free markets.  And from a practical perspective it makes no sense, given that our current health care system is the best in the world – even drawing patients from other advanced countries that have suffered by adopting the government-run model.”

“Americans take pride in self-government, which entails providing for their own well-being and the well-being of their families in a free society.  In exchange for this, the promoters of government-run health care would make them passive subjects, dependent on handouts and far more concerned about security than liberty.”

Amen. 

And make sure you check out the four measures he outlines to reform the current health care system - measures that would revolutionize what we have today.  Read the article here.

Here, check out Congressman Ryan boldly and articulately taking on the President at the February 25th health care summit:

The Scott Brown win for freedom in Massachusetts temporarily derailed Obamacare’s socialized freight train… but just long enough for the President to regroup with Reid and Pelosi, and strategize anew. 

Now that the Brown victory thwarted what would have been the traditional 60-vote passage of health care, they have crafted a new tactic.  Tomorrow President Obama is hosting an all-day, televised, bi-partisan health care summit.  It’s a theatrical attempt to refresh the health care “crisis,” and stage the Republicans as heartless goons who have neither solutions nor sympathy for Americans without health insurance.  

The President has challenged the Republicans to fix a “crisis” that he and his leftist ancestors have shrewdly created for the past 50 years.  He is re-creating the crisis of “Americans without health insurance,” while craftily painting the picture that Republicans are unreasonable if they don’t come to the summit table with real solutions to his crisis. 

This in the name of “transparency” and “bi-partisanship.”  Talk about a setup. 

And to follow Obama’s public relations stunt, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid can pull out the budget reconciliation option anytime he’s ready, which means only a simple majority is needed to pass the “new” healthcare bill Obama is proposing… essentially cancelling the Scott Brown effect.  This is the crooked liberal way to win Obamacare. 

In the trenches, Obama has also mobilized his own grassroots following to rally around his effort, and his organization is actively recruiting 10,000,000 volunteer hours to support candidates in favor of Obamacare.  But we the people can defeat these combined efforts with a little grassroots public relations campaign of our own.   

What You Must Do Now

President Obama’s manipulative publicity stunt must be countered with effective action from you.  Never underestimate the power of YOU… you are an American who loves freedom…and freedom won’t be stopped.  The power of that freedom starts with you.  I urge you to do 2 things, read both action items carefully: 

1)       CALL YOUR SENATORS.  Contact both your US Senators and tell them NO healthcare and NO reconciliation process.  Tell them you want them to start over and give America REAL reform based on free markets and free choice.  Tell them that if they vote “yes” on Obama’s health care bill, we the American people will see that they’re out next election.  Find their contact information at Congress Merge here. 

But wait… you say, “they’re not listening!”  They’ll listen when their name is in print alongside their unpopular words supporting health care.  If your Congressman insists on a “yes” vote for health care, document their words, and then….

2)      WRITE A LETTER TO THE EDITOR.  Speak up and influence both your Congressman and public opinion in your community!  Write a letter to the editor of your local paper.  Congressmen read them, as does everyone else… especially when you mention them by name and quote them.  Go to the Coalition for a Conservative Majority website to learn more about writing an effective letter.
