Rev Jesse Jackson Sighting: ‘You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man’

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water … there is a Reverend Jesse Jackson sighting.

The Reverend Jackson has once again shown he is a divider, not a uniter. What would this man ever do for a living if races actually got along in peace and harmony. Sadly, we may never know as this race-baiter will see fit that it never occurs.

Rev. Jackson, does it also make you a black man if you want to “cut his nuts out?”

A note to all the black people in America who have health insurance that you have no issue with, the Rev. Jesse Jackson says that “You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man.” Really? What would they be called Rev. Jackson, a racist? Or as The Other McCain opines, “Congratulations to this overnight Caucasian! He is now a man who can join the Klan. Send the word to Senator Bob Byrd”.

The remark stirred a murmur at the reception, held by the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) Foundation as part of a series of events revolving around the 25th anniversary of Jackson’s run for president. Several CBC members were in attendance, including Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), who’d introduced Jackson.

Davis, who is running for governor, is the only black member of Congress from Alabama.

If you don’t vote for Obamacare, you’ll change from being a black man

Who knew that is you did not vote for Obamacare that you could not be black. Does that mean if Artur Davis’ Democratic primary opponent, Ron Sparks, who is white would vote for the health care bill that it would make him white?

From Another Black Conservative … “Leave it to Jesse to do his part to make sure no blacks wander off the white liberal plantation.  Imagine that, the black skin the good Lord gave you isn’t good enough unless you buy into socialized medicine”.

40 Year Old Women … No Mammograms For You … Welcome to the Future of Obamacare & Restriction of Health Care

So Sarah Palin was way off base when she mentioned “death panels,” eh?

40 year old women, no soup, um … no mammograms for you!

Be very afraid America … this is no coincidence that such a recommendation came out now as Obama and Democrats try and pass universal healthcare. How do you think that a government run option can afford to pay for 41 million new insured’s, they cut costs by calling screenings or procedures unnecessary. Welcome to the trial balloon birth of rationed health care.

A Government Task Force has stated that self-breast exams do no good and some women don’t need to start getting mammograms until they’re 50. Welcome to the beginning of Obamacare and socialized, government controlled healthcare. This is how it begins, a government task force turning decades old health care breast screening protocol on it’s head.

Shocking recommendations given the American Cancer Society has encouraged women for more than 20 years to do monthly self-exams and start getting routine mammograms in their 40s.

The government task force, which is made up of doctors and scientists, reported getting screened too early causes false alarms and unnecessary biopsies.

Dr. Robert Pulliam, of Professional Medical Ultrasonics in Beckley, said early detection of any form of cancer increases survival rates.

How many woman in their 40’s are alive today because the received a mammograms and had early detection of breast cancer? In this day and age, sadly, pretty much every one knows some one who has had breast cancer. Personally, I think this is appalling. Having had so many relatives and friend’s moms and sisters be diagnosed with breast cancer in their 40’s … I take this personally. This is the slippery slope of health care when a so-called “independent” government task force of doctors try and change what has worked for years. Shame on you! 

In its first reevaluation of breast cancer screening since 2002, the independent government-appointed panel [talk about your oxymorons] recommended the changes, citing evidence that the potential harm to women having annual exams beginning at age 40 outweighs the benefit.

Wouldn’t This be Something … Doug Hoffman un-concedes in NY-23 US House Race

My what a difference a day makes. In this case several weeks. However, it it is being reported at The Hill that Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman has “un-conceded” in New York’s 23 special House election.

It was kind of head scratching that Hoffman conceded as fast as he did election night to Democrat Bill Owens. However, when one is given faulty info, what do you expect. I am sure it was completely unintentional. As others surmise, wouldn’t this be interesting and a kick in the Pelosi pants if Hoffman actually won.

Hoffman conceded the race on Election Night after learning he trailed Owens by 5,335 votes. But the Syracuse Post-Standard reported last week that the margin had shrunk to 3,026 votes after recanvassing.

An Inconvenient Health Care Cost Truth from CMS: Obamacare and Wellness Medicine Programs … In the End, It Cost More

An Inconvenient Health Care Cost Truth …

Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of their minions and state run media have said from the beginning that Obamacare healthcare reform would lower health care costs. They also claimed that slashing $500 billion from Medicare would have no effect on seniors. Oh contraire … Seniors and those concerned with rising health care costs, be very afraid.

It won’t cost trillions of dollars and it will reduce costs

However, from CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) comes this “Inconvenient Truth” via The Politico … the legislation the House passed last week would increase costs over the next decade by $289 billion. By 2019, health costs would rise to 21.1 percent of GDP compared to 20.8 under current law. (pdf report HERE)

With the exception of the proposed reductions in Medicare payment updates for institutional providers, the provisions of H.R. 3962 would not have a significant impact on future health care cost growth rates. In addition, the longer-term viability of the Medicare update reductions is doubtful,” the report said.

It will lower costs, not raise them and I am not taking money from seniors, really

In other words, outside of Medicare payment cuts to hospitals, the bill doesn’t curb increasing health care costs. And even the Medicare payment cuts will be difficult to sustain.

The analysis is more bad news for Democrats, who are facing increasing criticism that their reforms don’t do enough to control costs. Republicans released the analysis and jumped on the news.

It would appear that Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama have an Inconvenient Truth of their own … wellness programs cost more than treating the disease. This analysis is from a longstanding independent technical advisor to the Executive Branch and Congress. But I supposed they will be demonized and called a racist for providing bad news against Obama’s healthcare reform policy.

Obamacare: The Government Control Take Over of Health & the Theft of Your Children, Grand Children and Generations to Come

What President, what Congressman, what political party would do this to children and future generations? Who in good conscience would inflict a $1.3 trillion debt on the people in the midst of a recession with over 10% unemployment?

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. (US Constitution)

The passage by Nancy Pelosi and the House of Representatives of the latest version of the governments take over of health care in an attempt to control “We the People” not only is a slap in the face of personal liberties provided by the US Constitution, but also places a debt beyond comprehension to future generations. What happened to our civil liberties?

Hat Tip: Vanderbilt – ‘09

In the process of sacrificing the freedoms of our Country, the Radical Reformers are scrambling to rip apart the vision the Constitution provides for us. To finance their unrealistic attempts to remake America (and perhaps the world) to suit their foolish and peculiar aspirations, generations to come are being willfully robbed of their birthrights. We cannot let these Societal Misfits consume our children’s future by spending them into slavery!

How could a government place such a burden upon its people while forcing them to buy their insurance or fear fines and jail time. This is the same Obama government that refuses to imprison illegals, yet would arrest their own citizens for lack of government controlled insurance?

Even though only 29% of American voters would advise their Congressman to vote for Obamacare, Nancy Pelosi and the left wing radicals in the House did so any ways ramming a world of future debt down the throats of future generations, let alone a bad piece of legislation.  In the end, the vote could hardly be considered bi-partisan as only one RINO voted for Obamacare, the Pelosi edition, while 39 Democrats voted against it.

The cost of this healthcare bill will not only be the destruction of private insurance in the United States and enslaving Americans to a government run and controlled option, but the $1.3 trillion mountain of debt that future generations will never be able to pay off. However, since when does the government ever get the cost of any program correct. Just look at the projected costs of Medicare.

CT Senator Joe Lieberman put it best when he said that he would filibuster the bill and never let it come to a final vote because the cost and debt would create a worse problem than any perceived health care issue.

“The public option plan is unnecessary. It has been put forward I am convinced by people who really want the government to take over all of health insurance.”

Worse than that, we have a problem that is even greater than the health care problem and that is the debt.

“If the public option plan is in there, as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote…

The fact of the matter is that Obamacare will not cut costs, it will not improve insurance, it will not cover all the so-called uninsureds  … but it will cost future generations trillions of dollars for years to come. Obamacare will raise taxes on anything moving. How else does anyone really think this will be paid for?

Only 29% of Voter Would Advise Their Congressman to vote for Obamacare … Down 11% from Last Month

No mandate? The polling trends show that the American people do not want Obamacare and would tell their Congressman so. More bad news for Obama, Reid and Democrats. You push this through and their will be a backlash like has never been seen.

A recent Gallup Poll may be suggesting their is no clear mandate in the health care debate; however, their was more revealing data that came from this poll that was not headlined. After all Obama’s speeches, after all the town hall meetings, after all the Tea Parties and Pelosi ramming through Obamacare along a completely liberal partisan vote in the House … a recent Gallup poll shows that only 29% of American voters would advise their Congressman to vote for Obamacare and the government take over of health care.

29%!!! That is down 11% points from just one month ago. The fact of the matter is that Obama and Democrats continue to refuse to listen to the will of the people.

Americans have moved in a more negative direction on the basic issue of whether a new bill should be passed into law. Thirty-eight percent now say they would advise their member of Congress to vote against a new healthcare bill this year, while 29% would advise their member to vote for it, and about a third have no opinion. When those with no opinion are asked which way they lean, the verdict becomes 48% “against,” and 43% “for.” Both of these results are more negative than those from early October.

Bi-Partisan? Hardly! 15% of Democrats Voted Against Pelosi’s House Obamacare … with One RINO Coa Vote

By the way, some words of wisdom and common sense to Democrats and Barack Obama regarding the partisan passage of the Pelosi health care bill that would have government take over the insurance industry, one so-called RINO vote does not a bi-partisan bill make.

A note to the Republican party and RNC Chairman Michael Steele, no you do not need turn coats like Louisiana Representative Joseph Coa. You are not special and you do not get to extort a party for your liberal support of Barack Obama on the government take over of health care. If you can’t back Republicans on the major issues, what good are you on any issue?

On ABCNews.com’s “Top Line” last week, Steele said of Republicans who support President Obama on health care or the stimulus bill: “So candidates who live in moderate to slightly liberal districts have got to walk a little bit carefully here, because you do not want to put yourself in a position where you’re crossing that line on conservative principles, fiscal principles, because we’ll come after you.”

Asked about those comments on CNN today, Cao laughed and said he “would like to remind” Steele that Republicans celebrated his election to Congress last year — in one of the most Democratic districts in the country — as a symbol of GOP diversity. Cao is the first Vietnamese-American member of Congress.

What Democrats Can Expect from Not Listening to We the People … Loss of Congress & Presidency to Republicans

2010 early election polls you can believe in …

DEMOCRATS … Do not say that you were not warned. The polling trend has begun, 2010 represents change we can all believe in as Obama and Democrats have completely misread and overstated their change mandate.

The One, could be One and Done in 2012 … 58% say next President likely Republican

Democrats in Congress and President Obama have not understood the common thread of the fire and anger expressed by “We the People” in town hall meetings and Tea Parties when it comes to taxes, deficits, spending and government take over. It is “We the People” that can hire you and “We the People” can FIRE YOU!

Just so that Barack Obama, Axelrod and the rest of Obama’s spin machine and minions understand what the 2009 year elections means … read it an weep. According to a recent Rasmussen Poll, 58% of American voter say it is at least somewhat likely the next president of the United States will be a Republican. Forgive me President Obama, but that 58% represents a greater mandate than what you were elected with in 2008. It would appear that “We the People” wish to make another change and it does not include you. Forget the fact that Republicans obviously overwhelmingly expect the next President to be Republican, it’s the 60% of unaffiliated voters that The Obamamessiah needs to concern himself with.

Sixty-six percent (66%) of men expect the next president to be a Republican, compared to 52% of women.

Eighty-five percent (85%) of Republicans see a member of their party winning the presidency as likely, including 57% who see it as very likely. Sixty percent (60%) of voters not affiliated with either major party think they’re right, but just 31% of Democrats agree.

Barack Obama finds himself with a Daily Presidential Tracking Poll of -10%. Basically, 40% of American voters strongly disapprove of Obama performing his role as President while only 30% strongly approve.

For those of you in Congress, especially the Blue Dog Democrats and other moderate Democrats who think you are in safe districts, 49% of US voters now say it is at least somewhat likely that Republicans will win control of Congress next year.  What a difference a year makes, eh? Last year after the 2008 elections the Republican party was all but dead and Democrats were dancing in the street. The election of Republican governors in Virginia and New Jersey, both states won easily by Obama in 2008 show that there is a shifting trend to Republicans and that no Democrat House or Senate seat is truly safe.

Why does anyone think that 39 Democrats sided with Republicans against Pelosicare? 31 of them represent districts that voted for John McCain over Barack Obama.

Seventy-three percent (73%) of Republicans think it is likely that their party will regain control of the Senate and the House. Just 55% of Democrats say it’s unlikely. Even more telling is that 31% of Republicans say it is very likely, compared to 12% of Democratic voters who rate it as not at all likely.

A plurality (49%) of voters not affiliated with either party see the GOP returning to the majority in Congress.

CT Senator Joe Lieberman Says “If the Public Option is in There, I will Not Allow this Bill to come to a Final Vote”

A Statesman emerges with convictions and principles … Former Democrat VP candidate says he will not vote for health care reform with a public option. Lieberman will vote to filibuster that plan if it contains a public option.

Independent Connecticut US Senator Joe Lieberman is for health care reform. However, he is not for Obama-Pelosi Care. Isn’t this the same guy who Democrats had run as their VP in 2000? My how the Democrat party has changed to the Far LEFT. This morning on Fox News Sunday, Lieberman told Chris Wallace that he was for reforming health care to stop the unsustainable increase in health care costs and to cover millions of uninsured’s; however, the Independent from the Nutmeg State is against the public option.

“The public option plan is unnecessary. It has been put forward I am convinced by people who really want the government to take over all of health insurance.”

Worse than that, we have a problem that is even greater than the health care problem and that is the debt.

“If the public option plan is in there, as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote…

Senator Lieberman then went on to say that he believed that the debt escalating from $12 trillion to $21 trillion in 10 years because he believes that the debt can break America and send us into an even greater recession than we are fighting out of today. Lieberman stated that he did not want to do that to our children and grandchildren. Too bad the liberal Democrats in the House did not care about the future generations, only their own power.

Obamacare: Pelosicare EDITION … Nashville, TN Tea Party “Pink Slip Rally” … Vote for Socialized Healthcare & You are Gone!

As Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats shamefully rammed this socialized healthcare through the House in it’s latest version of Obamacare down the throats of Americans … “We the People” were out in protest.

Let Nancy Pelosi, Blue Dog Democrats, moderates and gutless Republicans across this great land heed the warning … if you helped pass Obamacare, we will FIRE YOU!!!

As the conspiracy and sham that is being passed off as democracy and reform by Democrat Nancy Pelosi and his minions was passed under the cloak of darkness on a Saturday night in Washington, DC earlier in the day the voice of the people was heard in places across the country like Nashville, TN.

And as the people spoke out in opposition to Obamacare, Pelosicare, increased taxes, increased federal deficits, out of control spending, Cap & Trade and unemployment … the constant thread was whether you be Republican, Democrat, Independent, Senator, House Rep or President … You work for us and we will give you a pink slip in 2010 and 2012 if you do not start listening to the people.

Here are some of the folks we came across …

Sadly, under the cloak of darkness The House passed Obamacare 220–215. A vote that in no way can be considered bi-partisan. Michelle Malkin has the roll call vote. Also, the Gateway Pundit has the grim news that nationalized healthcare passed the House.
