Obama Makes Back Room “Nontransparent” Deal with Unions On Health Care Cadillac Tax and no CSPAN

 

Obama makes yet another backroom deal and it was not televised on CSPAN!

Barack Hussein Obama: Read My Lips … No new middle class taxes. So much for “We the People” with Obama it’s about him and his constituents.

I will not increase taxes on any family making under less than $250K a year will see any form of tax increase …  John McCain wants to tax your health care benefits.

Remember OBAMA was supposed to be the most transparent President EVAH!

The Gateway Pundit reminds us of this little time machine moment … from the 2008 Presidential election when Obama said he was against the taxing of Cadillac plans and attack Republican candidate John McCain

The Obama Administration has made yet another back room deal for the terrible pice of health care legislation known as Obamacare. This time it was with Union leaders and Cadillac health care taxes. Or in this case, the Unions’s lack there of of paying the taxes. WHAT YOU DID NOT WATCH IT ON CPAN? ME NEITHER!

Special deals made for union members but not all middle class Americans. How is that Hope & Change feeling now America?

The White House reached a tentative agreement with union leaders early Thursday to tax high-cost insurance plans.

The White House reached a tentative agreement with union leaders early Thursday to tax high-cost insurance plans, officials said, removing one of the major stumbling blocks in the way of a final compromise on comprehensive health care legislation sought by President Barack Obama.

Complete details of the tentative deal were not immediately available, although the White House was expected to present it to senior lawmakers later in the day. Union leaders also were returning to the White House.

Rep. Joe Courtney, D-Conn., who led the opposition to the tax in the House, said the agreement involves several measures that would ease its impact. Among them: excluding the value of dental and vision benefits when applying the tax as well as raising the $23,000 threshold at which it would take effect for families.

Hmm, the problem that the Clintons made in 1993 with Hillary health care is they took all their ideas and people in to a room and closed the door.

However, what do you expect from an Administration that meets on Transparancy, but the meeting is closed. Good grief, you just can’t make this stuff up or trust this administration.

      I heard the deal exempts plans that are ‘collectively bargained’ so the unions get a pass and the rest of us with health plans get the tax.

      the unions own obama. they have owned him since they were a major factor in getting him inserted
      into office.
      ok now there’s the Amish, Mormons, and now the obama unions exempt. i thought this was mandatory reform and everybody had to have insurance.
      i say screw obama and his thug party and all his supporters.

      It’s pay back to the unions for getting the won elected. DC doesn’t give a rat’s patoot about the rest of us. If they did this obscene bill would never had made it this far.

      I sit to the front edge of the seat wishing for the first major reporter to directly call Obama an, ‘Intentional liar, a non-representitive of the United States and a crook’. Straight up! How much more evidence does it take?

      And more. With the many democrats of the present terroist congress not seeking re-election? There has just got to be more to that than is readily clear. What bribes are they distancing? How is it they could plunge us into sociolisum so recently, all up around corrruption of the likes anyother non-politician would go to jail for, then so near term cowardly run from office? With nothing to hide? Too obvious…the smell of this indicates a corpse.

      It is time for the AG’s of the states to stand up against the crooks in Washington. Do the investigations necessary and start bringing charges of corruption and treason against the Democratic party and its thugs.
      The people have had enough of crooked politicians and the crooked lawyers that support them.
      If things continue as they are, it is highly likely that we may have to invoke a well regulated militia to correct the mess.

      #5, our teeth and claws are removed, and they should not have been so Constitutionally. In the name of safety we are controlled more each congressional, Bilderburg, world activisum, bribery, meeting.

      As harmless as I write on the net, I find it incredible I have been hacked and monitored by scum who would work for parts of our government outside of our representation.

      But I do agree with you. I think? I would rather die for the “safety” of freedom than to live at length as controlled people in safety. I would rather my decendants givin opportunity to find what they become by their own efforts and level of responsibilty, than given assurance of sociolisum. Which implodes every time anyway.

      Though as I started this responce: Secret spending of others money, victimizes the “other” same as the will be victims.

      No longer are the secrets just HAARP, secret bunkers over the nation to save shell players, secret bases multiple in the west, the Atlantic, south of Cuba…not just our commonly known undercover groups now spying on citizens they should be ‘working for’. Now terrorist Congress and a Chicago thug do secrets only half cleaverly…sort of in the open. And call it by another name.
