Democrats, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi & Steny Hoyer Attack Health Care Opponents As “UnAmerican” … UNREAL!!!

Un-AMERICAN? UNREAL!!!

Since when as political dissent in America been un-American? Hey Nancy, I guess that whole “taxation without representation” protest over 200 years ago was un-American as well? Some one may want to send Pelosi’s and Hoyer’s editorial to the Obama snitch squad, flag@whitehouse.gov, looks like this bit of writing is rampant with health care lies.

Does Nancy Pelosi believe that it was un-American as well when Democrats and Liberals protest the war in Iraq or any other LEFT wing agenda? It is exactly the attitude of Pelosi and Hoyer that is creating the contentious atmosphere at Town Hall meetings across the country. These people think they are better than “We the People”. These people think they are more important than “We the People”.

What is un-American is purposely not listening to “We the People” and acting as if our voice does not matter. What is un-American is avoiding town hall meetings.

From USA Today … Nancy Pelosi shows why she is one of the most despised members of Congress … ‘Un-American’ attacks can’t derail health care debate’. No Speaker Pelosi, in the mean time Democratic members of Congress run from their constituents and do not want to participate in a debate where a majority of Americans are against Obamacare. The opt out of town hall meetings and do telephone one’s instead under the guise of security issues.

CBO Says Obamacare Will Raise Costs, Not Cut Them … Quick Notify Obama’s Nark Squad at flag@whitehouse.gov

More annoying facts from the CBO against Obamacare …

The CBO comes out with more damaging news for Obamacare stating that preventive care will raise the cost of health care, not lower it. This represents yet another blow to the claims that Obamacare, a government run, single payer system, and take over of health care in the US will result in cost savings.

“Although different types of preventive care have different effects on spending, the evidence suggests that for most preventive services, expanded utilization leads to higher, not lower, medical spending overall,” Elmendorf wrote. “That result may seem counterintuitive.

I guess the CBO report that Obamacare will raise costs and not cut them will be sent to the Obama White House snitch line. Or maybe it’s Obama’s spin that needs to be sent in to his own snitch line as misrepresented health care comments?

However, as the CBO cites facts and case study, the Democratic controlled Congress whines at the results as cites as their proof … nothing, nada, nil. What is it that “We the People” are supposed to believe that the Congress is correct? Obama’s promises that the stimulus would work? Maybe it was the brilliant and under allocation of money to the Cash for Clunkers program? Maybe we are supposed to just believe them, because they said so?

Daily Commentary – Monday, August 10th, 2009 – Dana’s Back … Don’t Forget to Take Care of Yourself

• After a week under the weather, Dana returns with some good advice. Don’t forget to sit back and smell the roses.

AJC Columnist Cynthia Tucker Says 45% to 65% of Town Hall Opposing to Obamacare are Racists … Was Hillary Clinton Black Too?

The Audacity of the Race Card …

According to Cynthia Tucker of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, 45%–65% of those who attend town hall meetings in opposition to Obamacare are racists. That’s correct, the opposition to Obama’s health care is not based on the fact the policy is a joke, i is because individuals are racist. She made these comments on MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, Hard Ball.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Put 100 of these people in a room. Strap them into gurneys. Inject them with sodium pentathol. How many of them would say “I don’t like the idea of having a black president”? What percentage?

CYNTHIA TUCKER: Oh, I’m just guessing. This is just off the cuff. I think 45 to 65% of the people who appear at these groups are people who will never be comfortable with the idea of a black president.

Democrats and Liberal just don’t get it. These people actually believe Barack Obama is greater than the institution of the Presidency, Government, Democracy and “We the People.” To quote The Godfather, “it’s not personal, it’s business.” We the People cannot stand Obama’s policies on government run healthcare.

So if you show initiative and passion, get off your coach and stop watching reality TV, become politically engaged, question a policy the costs over $1 trillion and express your Constitutional right to free speech … You are a racist!

Did I miss something when Hillary Healthcare failed, was Hillary Clinton black as well?

Protesters against Obamacare have been slandered by all by Democratic Congressmembers and called angry mobs”, “paid agitators” and recently, “brownshirts” and “unAmerican.” Barack Obama won the Presidency with a 53% to 46% vote. Presently, polls show that 50% of Americans think that he he doing a bad job with healthcare. Thus, the very people who voted for Obama are questioning his healthcare policies, are they racist too?

Presidential Arrogance: Barack Obama’s Democracy … Shut Up & Stop Talking because I Know Better

From the Emperor & Chief: Change you can believe in … Obama Democracy hardly sounds like democracy.

America, SHUT UP and do what I say …

Did Barack Obama really believe his press clippings that he was “The One”, the “Obamamessiah”? Does this liberal socialist really believe that the “change” that Americans voted for was his policies, rather than just a change from GWB and the social experiment that was voting in the first black President.

 The question was asked, Barack Obama may be “The One”, but is he ready to lead? What is your answer now America?

Barack Obama … the American Caesar. Does Obama need a civics lesson in American democracy? At a fundraiser last week for Democratic gubernatorial candidate R. Creigh Deeds, Obama made the following outrageous comment.

“I don’t want the folks who created the mess do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”

This hardly sounds like candidate Obama who said he would reach across the aisle and be a uniter not a divider. Had he ever made such a comment as a candidate he would never have been nominated.

Instapundit asks the question, what would the reaction be if a Republican President made such a comment?

If this were true, then he would have to have all incumbent politicians in the House and Senate to stop talking, including himself. What was responsible for the sub prime mortgage mess? Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and who had oversight of those entities? Does Obama really think that he does not have to listen to individuals?

St. Louis Tea Party Backlash Against SEIU Thuggary … Taking the Fight to SEIU Headquarters

Return of the Jedi … St. Louis Tea Party denounces SEIU actions of violence.

Jim Hoft, The Gateway Pundit has some great reporting and pics from the event of the St Louis Tea Party denouncing the SEIU thuggary and violence. Turn about is fair play as Tea Party go’ers turned the tables and protested at a union headquarters. My how things have changed. The grass roots Tea Party folks have taken the fight to the unions. There’s some change you can believe in.

An interview from The Founding Bloggers with The Gateway Pundit can be seen below. The video includes an interview with Kenneth Gladney, the black conservative who was beaten up by SEIU members.

“I just want the law to do what they do best, and that is… you know… serve justice. That’s it.”

Hot Air has said it best when it comes to the MSM in dealing with Kenneth Gladney. How is it no one really knows his name? He is a black man who was attacked by whites and had racial names hurled at him prior to his beating. Oh, but if he were an Obama supporter he would have been on every media outlet telling his story …

Like Jim Treacher said, if Gladney was an Obama supporter, right now he’d be more famous than Rodney King.

Amazing what a true grass roots movement can do when they have the truth and passion on their side.

Tragedy on the Hudson: Plane and Tour Helicopter Collide in New York City Killing 9 … No Survivors

A tour helicopter and small single engine plane have collided in NYC on the West Side of Manhattan killing all aboard. The accident happened just after noon between Manhattan and Hoboken, N.J., and left debris scattered in the water and on the New Jersey shoreline.

The plane was a a Piper PA-32 that had just taken off from Teterboro, NJ heading for Ocean City, N.J. The helicopter was a Eurocopter AS 350 owned by Liberty Tours, a sightseeing and charter company. 

Pics can be seen HERE and HERE

Two bodies were recovered from the river within the first three hours after the crash, which witnesses said happened around noon. Seven others were still believed underwater.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg told reporters at a mid-afternoon news conference that the effort to search the river had changed from a rescue mission to a recovery effort, meaning authorities were not expecting to find any survivors.

The search has become a recovery mission as it is believed that none aboard the plane or helicopter could have survived the crash. Authorities have said that the crash was “not survivable”.

Two passengers, including a child, and a pilot were believed to have been aboard the single-engine Piper PA-32 when it collided with the copter around noon between New York and Hoboken, New Jersey, Bloomberg said.

Five Italian tourists and a pilot were believed to be aboard the helicopter, an American Eurocopter AS350 operated by Liberty Helicopter Sightseeing Tours, Bloomberg said. iReport.com: See witness photos

UPDATE I: Three Bodies have Been Recovered

UPDATE II: According to reports this morning on Fox News, a fourth body has been recovered from the Hudson River

Sean Hanity & Mark Levin on the Thug Tactics by Obama’s Minions at Town Hall Meetings … Democracy Under Obama

Welcome to Democracy & Free Speech under Obama, Change You Can Believe In …

First we get the Obama White House snitch email account, flag@whitehouse.gov , to collect fishy information ala the Soviet Union and East Germany. Of course fact that its most likely illegal and flies in the face of free speech seems to be irrelevant to the Obama Administration.

The White House said it wanted to be made aware of “fishy” comments about its health care plan because it wants to set the record straight. But critics called White House move an Orwellian tactic designed to control the health care debate.

Then we have Americans practicing free speech attacked by pro-Obama union thugs.

If something terrible happens at one of these Town Hall meetings, the President in part can be held responsible. Obama has unleashed the union thugs … Mark Levin says that Tea Party go’ers just wanted to be treated the same as Obama treats the terrorist at Gitmo. They get due process rights, they are told that they are human beings too and they have a right to be heard. Guess what, we are American citizens, we do to.

Watch the video, via the Gateway Pundit when a black conservative was attacked by the Carnahan-supporting mob. Can you imagine the media coverage if it were conservatives who attacked a black man? Where is Jesse Jackson? Where is Al Sharpton? As Paterico Pontification reports, “It’s every Democrat talking point you’ve read about in the last day or two, come to life in an ugly fashion. With one twist. The black victim was a conservative, and the assailants may well have been union thugs.”

From the St Louis Today:

Kenneth Gladney, 38, a conservative activist from St. Louis, said he was attacked by some of those arrested as he handed out yellow flags with “Don’t tread on me” printed on them. He spoke to the Post-Dispatch from the emergency room at St. John’s Mercy Medical Center, where he said he was awaiting treatment for injuries to his knee, back, elbow, shoulder and face. Gladney, who is black, said one of his attackers, also a black man, used a racial slur against him before the attack.

“It just seems there’s no freedom of speech without being attacked,” he said.

Who’s Hijacking Healthcare? Democrats US Rep David Scott Forgets Who He Works for and Screams at his Constituents

The question that needs to be answered by Barack Obama and Democrats is … “WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO HIJACK HEALTH CARE IN AMERICA!!!”

The Democratic Congress have truly forgot what Democracy is. They have forgot who they work for and that political dissent is the foundation of Democracy.  Obamacare is so unpopular that instead of answering questions from their own constituents, they yell at them, call them plants and accuse them of hijacking political events.

A note to you fools who have been stupidly elected … You represent “We the People” and work for us, not the other way around.

So the Democratic definition of hijacking an even is asking a politician a question? Americans actually taking time out of their busy schedules to attend an event as opposed to staying home and watching reality TV are demonized. So now the “Nazi mob” also includes physicians who are democrat constituents who dare ask a question about Obamacare.

Watch the VIDEO at Hot Air

Hot Air has the video of the outrageous behavior of Democratic US Representative David Scott from Georgia(GA, D-13th). At no point during the questions by a Georgia physician was he disrespectful; however, the same could not be said for US Rep David Scott.

VIDEO

From 11–Alive, NBC affiliate from Atlanta, GA

“Don’t come and take advantage of what these individuals have done!” Rep. Scott admonished a man in the audience in a loud voice. “You want a meeting with me on healthcare? I’ll give it to you!”

Dr. Brian Hill is the one who asked the question. He says he’s neither a plant nor a Republican.

“I did not go to the meeting to cause any problems,” said Dr. Hill. “I went to the meeting to ask a question that was very, very important for my patients.”

NewsBusters points out the fair and balanced reporting of 11–Alive in actually bothering to interview the GA doctor who was accused of not being a constituent of the 13th district and a plant.

Hardly a Shocker … Jenny Sanford, Wife of SC Governor Mark Sanford Leaving the Governor’s Mansion … Splittsville

This is hardly shocking news … Jenny and Mark Sanford splitting up.

Ever since embattled South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford made the fatal comments that he was “hiking the Appalachian Trail,” … then admitted his affair with an Argentinian woman. After Governor Sanford’s disastrous press conference following his admissions, one wonders how moving day did not take place sooner. Personally, I am shocked he is still governor of South Carolina.

Jenny Sanford, the wife of South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, announced Friday morning that she and their sons will leave the governor’s mansion in Columbia and settle in the Charleston area, a split that comes after the couple tried for seven weeks to mend their marriage.

On Friday, Jenny Sanford issued the following prepared statement:
