The Overlords In Congress Have It Easy

They claim they are just like us and they pretend to be of the people but members of Congress are the overlords and they have a much easier time of things. This is, in part, because they are not subject to the laws they pass for us to follow. The Obamacare debacle is a primary example.

First of all they ensured they were eligible for up to 75% of their premiums to be paid for by taxpayers. No other worker is in the exchange with employer support. They are in and paying the entire freight or they are getting a tax credit (at the expense of taxpayers). Members of Congress voted to exempt themselves.

Now, they are not having any trouble signing up because they have special access phone numbers and people from the insurance companies sitting at the Capitol to help them get all signed up.

In addition, the lawmakers have a much larger selection of plans from which to choose. They have 112 Gold Plan options which is many times more than the serfs for whom they work have access to.

These cretins forced this on America and then ensured they were treated like royalty.

We need to vote them all out of office for this.

They work for us and we need to make sure they know that.

Of course they will flash some shiny beads during the next election and the low information voters will reelect them and then cry that they are getting screwed.

Cave canem!

Obama’s Example Screwed By Obamacare

Jessica Sanford of Washington State did not have health insurance for 15 years because the single mother could not afford it. She was self employed and received no child support so she was on her own.

[note]I question whether she was actually on her own. There are a number of government programs that provide for low income people, particularly single women with children. It is more likely that she is part of the huge number of uninsured who never took the time to sign up for one of the existing programs.[/note]

She went on her state exchange website and signed up. She was told that she qualified for a tax credit and she selected a plan she could afford. She was so excited that she wrote an email to Barack Obama.

I am a single mom, no child support, self-employed. And I haven’t had insurance for 15 years because it’s too expensive. I was crying the other day when I signed up, so much stress lifted. Weekly Standard

Barack Obama used her email at an event.

A funny thing happened on the way to Obamacare for Ms. Sanford. She first received notice that the tax credit quoted was too high and it was reduced which meant she had to pay more of her premium.

Then she received notice that she was not eligible AT ALL for a tax credit. She was responsible for the entire premium.

And that my friends, was an amount that she could not afford.

Now that they have her information and she has selected a plan I am willing to bet she won’t be able to cancel it. She should be able to because she was given incorrect information but that will probably not mean much. Even if they allowed her to cancel her information is on file so if she fails to select another plan she will be taxed for not having one.

She states in the article that for now, she won’t be getting insurance.

Here comes the tax man…

Obamacare is a disaster.

But then again, so is Obama.

Mitt Romney Was Right

Mitt Romney said a lot of things during the campaign and after he said them Barack Obama and his media minions took great pains to tell us how Romney was wrong. Yes, Romney told us that up to 20 million people could lose their health insurance but Obama told us if we like it we could keep it, PERIOD.

So that settled it for the fainting crowds of worshippers. Obama deemed it so it must be so. Now millions are losing their health insurance.

Romney also warned about world affairs but was scorned by Obama who told him the Cold War ended a long time ago. Looks like Mitt was correct there as well. Watch this video and it will seem like Romney was psychic.

Mitt Romney is not a conservative. He is more moderate but either way he would have been infinitely better than Obama. Romney has real world experience, is a businessman, has leadership experience in government and understands world affairs and the economy.

In short, he has all the qualities that Obama lacks.

We would be a lot better off if Romney had won the last election. Anyone who watches this video and still thinks Obama was right should not be out in public without one of those padded head protectors.

Hillary Clinton supports all the stuff Obama is doing so if you think she would be a better president you should seek therapy (hope you still have insurance).

If you are losing your insurance and can’t enroll and/or afford Obamacare and you voted for him then you got what you deserve and what you voted for.

Suck it up cupcake.

Obama Was Not The Only One To Say It

There is a lot of hype about Barack Obama’s promise that if you like your insurance you can keep it and there should be. He lied to us dozens of times when he knew all along that he was doing do. He should be held to account for this but he is not the only one to say it.

A number of Democrats also spouted this lie and they knew they were lying when they said it. They need to be held accountable for their words and some of them can be. A few are retiring and some are not up for reelection but many on the list at the linked article are up in 2014.

The ones up for reelection lied to our faces and did not really care what impact their lie or the law would have. All they cared about was getting it passed.

Now that it has passed and their lie has been exposed along with the dismal failure of the roll out they are running around like their heads are on fire and their asses are catching. They are pretending to care about us. They are working hard to fix the problem they knew existed and that they knew would happen but that they lied about.

They are doing this in order to win reelection because they are running scared. If they can fool people then they can continue to screw people. Remember, they only care about their political careers.

Breitbart News has compiled a list of the Top 10 Senate Democrats who should follow Obama’s lead and apologize to the American public. These particular lawmakers either went all-in on the false claim for partisan reasons or were in a position to know that millions of Americans would not be able to keep their health insurance.

Read The Article Here

If these people are your elected officials then be sure to vote them out of office. They lied to your faces and they allowed criminal schemes to be used to get a law that is harming our nation. They have shown their disdain for the voters and 2014 will be the chance for voters to send them packing.

Obamacare Is Settled Law, So?

The left keeps telling us Obamacare is settled law and it should be left alone. That is, of course, unless B. Hussein Obama wants to alter it to help his friends. He is OK with granting exemptions and delaying certain provisions that help donors or base groups. He, I might add, is not allowed to change a law but then again the Constitution has never gotten in his way.

To strengthen his argument Obama tells us that John Roberts (an alleged conservative) and the Supreme Court have told us that Obamacare is settled and therefore we must leave it alone.

This guy is supposed to be a Constitutional law professor but he never gets it right. The Supreme Court only stated that Obamacare was Constitutional, not that it had to be left alone. The Court is charged with deciding if something is legal, the Congress is charged with introducing and changing laws and it has that authority no matter how long a law has been in place.

[note]It is also important to point out the SCOTUS violated the Constitution when deciding Obamacare. The Court rewrote the law to make the penalty a tax and thus make it legal under Congress’ taxing authority. The law never calls it a tax; it calls the money a penalty. Remember, Obama was vehement that this was not a tax (until it was).[/note]

In any event, we are supposed to just sit back and allow Obamacare to destroy the nation because it is settled law. Well a funny thing happened on the way to Obamacare, the Democrats who rammed it through are now in a bad position because it is not working and millions of people are losing the plans they like and were promised they could keep. The rollout of the exchanges was a disaster and the website will likely not be working correctly by the end of November as Obama promised. Democrats want to change the law, you know the one that is settled and must be left alone.

When Republicans were debating the budget issues they pushed for many things. One of the compromises was a year delay of the individual mandate. The Democrats refused to negotiate and allowed the government to shut down over the issue. Now that things are going badly many of them (particularly those up for reelection) are seeking a delay of a year in implementing many parts of Obamacare including the individual mandate. Think about it. Democrats refused to do this and allowed the government to (partially) shutdown and now they are asking for it in order to protect them in the next election.

I like the way Obama and his toadies scream about settled law. Why is it that a settled law means nothing to them when they don’t like it?

Case in point, the Second Amendment. The law regarding arms has been settled law since December 15th, 1791 and yet liberals, including Obama, keep trying to change it.

The Second Amendment protects a preexisting right for an individual to keep and bear arms. This is only in dispute from those who want to get rid of firearms. History, SCOTUS rulings and the writings of the Founders all make it perfectly clear that individuals have the right to own and carry firearms for personal protection and any other legal purpose.

But liberals are not happy with this settled law. They want to change it even though it has been in effect just shy of 222 years.

So don’t fall for the mindless prattle of liberals who declare Obamacare settled law that can’t be changed.

You can change any law. Obamacare can be changed by Congress and the President and the Second Amendment can be changed by the people (through the Amendment process).

Ironically, liberal/progressive/socialists want Obamacare upheld and the Second Amendment repealed for the very same reason.

To control people.

[note]This video shows black conservative leaders discussing gun control[/note]

This is how tyrants work. Control people’s lives (like their health care) and remove their means to fight tyranny and you can run roughshod over them.

History is full of examples of this.

Let’s not allow America to be added to that list.
