Don't Got Government Healthcare? Go To Jail!

Note: If you are keeping up with the Health Care debate, and I sure hope you are since it will greatly affect you and your family, here are two items worth noting. The first I want to share with you is from a senior who wrote a letter to his editor. It is about “health-care rationing” that’s occurring right now! If the Obama healthcare bill is passed, this kind of stuff will be commonplace. Second, did you know that if you do not want to purchase the government healthcare, you could be thrown in jail? Seriously, check out the Youtube video and hear it yourself spoken by the House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.

Mr. Obama: I'm calling you out
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
By William Piercey Sr.

The new era of government control over our lives and freedoms has begun. This week, it got personal, and I felt helpless.

The doctor overseeing my health care advised me to get an H1N1 flu shot. I've been under a six-year treatment program for a chronic infection, plus I have heart and lung problems. Therefore, I am considered a high risk. Fortunately, my doctor had three shots available, but I would have to get approval from my county health department. Much to my surprise, the woman at the health department apologized and told me that even though I was a senior citizen at high risk, the health department had been instructed to approve shots only for children and pregnant mothers. I asked when a shot for my situation might be available. "We really don't know. Check back with us sometime in December."

What? The terrorist detainees in Gitmo are getting shots this month. Why not a high-risk senior citizen?

Mr. Obama, this is what we call health care rationing, which you claim won't happen under a government-run health care program.

If George W. Bush was considered the Barney Fife of executive power, then welcome to the Chicago-style politics of the new Vito Corleone family. The president himself, like a strong-armed enforcer, said in a nationally televised speech, "If you misrepresent anything in this plan, I will call you out." This administration has turned the once dignified and esteemed Oval Office into a war room for its liberal propaganda.

On his first day in office, the president signed the Ethics Commitments by Executive Branch Personnel executive order. During the campaign he vowed to keep lobbyists out of the administration. But in Section 3 of this order is a waiver clause. The director of the Office of Management and Budget "may grant" a written waiver of any restrictions. Former lobbyists were given waivers and now hold key positions in government. Mr. Obama, you lied.

At the same time lobbyists were coming in the front door, dozens of new unvetted, hand-picked ideologues were being shuttled in the back door. Many of these people were placed in key policymaking positions. U.S. Sen. Susan Collins of Maine was worried about 18 of these unvetted czars, 10 of whom worked in the White House. An amendment to force these appointees to testify in oversight hearings was shot down by the Democratic leadership. Collins was especially concerned about Carol Browner, who negotiated fuel-economy standards with the auto industry. She even sent a letter to Obama, and one of his counsels replied that no one would be made available. This administration fears no one, especially a senator who dares to enforce something as minor as checks and balances. Obama promised transparency. He lied.

On the topic of transparency, the $787 billion stimulus bill was a progressive Trojan horse. It's loaded with political favors and programs that set up the infrastructure for education, health care and climate change. It was passed and signed in a matter of weeks. This was not a bill to put Americans back to work. Obama said it would produce 3.5 million jobs in two years. Over the past year the administration has changed its story daily but finally settled on the "create or save" propaganda. Obama also said the bill would keep unemployment under 8 percent. The rate has climbed to over 10 percent. Either his economic advisers are incompetent and need to be fired, or, once again, Mr. President, you lied.

Mr. President, you said you didn't want to run our car companies and banks, but you do. With the $350 billion in TARP funds left by President Bush, Obama's people continued the surge of bailouts. Americans might be shocked to know the recipients of bailout money now total 727 institutions. This government control in the private sector is unprecedented.

Government-run health care, card check, cap-and-trade, net neutrality, control of radio stations and possible newspaper bailouts are just part of this administration's agenda.

It's time for Americans to get in this government's face and call it out. This coup d'etat can be defeated. We have the numbers, the votes and the will power to turn back this assault on our individual freedoms.

With 15 million unemployed Americans, I'm sure we can find a few willing patriots to fill all those upcoming vacant seats in Washington, especially with an annual salary of $170,000, office, staff, insurance, expense account and, best of all, a three-day workweek. The only requirements for this job are honesty, integrity and a love of country.

Refuse to Purchase the Government Healthcare? Then Go to Jail!

Below is a transcript of what House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said.

This is last Monday in Seattle at a Swedish Medical Center press conference. Pelosi spoke to the press. A news reporter, Shomari Stone, said, "Do you think it's fair to send people to jail for not buying health insurance?"

PELOSI: For a long time now people who haven't had health care or provided it have placed the burden on others. Everybody is paying the price for uncompensated care. I don't need to tell you that in a hospital. And so what this is is to say we all have to do our part and that is the point of the bill.

STONE: But, Madam Speaker, I'm just trying to understand. If you don't buy health insurance, you go to jail? You didn't answer my question.

PELOSI: There -- there is, uh, uh -- there is -- I think the legislation is very fair in this respect.

So there it is folks. For those who choose not to purchase the Obama Healthcare or possibly remain with their own private insurance – go to jail! And while in jail, guess what kind of healthcare you will be getting? Obama Healthcare. So either way you look at things, this is something that will be shoved down our throats!

You say, “This could not possibly happen here in America.” It is time to get our heads out of the sand and see the hand-writing on the wall. Yes it can. I know it seems far fetched, but that will all change when this hits closer to home and starts affecting each of us on a personal level.

We are all being conditioned to live no longer under a democracy, but a dictatorship. This is the kind of government the bible describes during the Tribulation Period. We are seeing the shadows of such government occurring in our lifetime. This is truly exciting! As we make our way toward a dictatorship, many who call themselves Christians will be forced to choose between Jesus or Caesar. And the stakes will be high!

Folks, now is the time to strengthen your faith and walk with the Lord. Don’t wait until you are forced too. Do it while you have the freedom to do so. Now is God’s gift to us.
