Pelosi Dumps on America

On the steps of the Capital this morning, Nancy Pelosi released the House version of Obamacare for the world to see. Her speech was filled with lies and assorted bullshit, meant to assure her supporters that this bill would fix the world, and not cost anything.

This document, all 1990 pages of it, are available for viewing. Here is a link provided by Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) on his official website:

Now, this is not the final bill that will become law, if enough idiots in Congress support it. The Senate has to come up with its own version, then negotiation between the two sides of Congress and the white House begins - to merge the bills into one that contains all they want. However, the House version is the 'stronger' of the two, and more of it will reach the final verison than that in the Senate version.

Amazing - this fundamental change to the country, written in lawyer-eze that has been crafted by liberals for years, is dropped out there for us to look at for a very short time. That is not by accident - if Pelosi could get away with it, she'd keep it hidden until vote time (she's done it before).

Folks, try to read some of this - at least look at the table of contents and see if there are specific areas that concern you. Keep your ears open in the coming days for interpretation - there are a lot of people looking at this trying to understand it, and they will be all over the airwaves and print with what they find. Don't be surprised at what you hear. Don't be surprised at the amount of pork that is tagged onto it as well.

Update - Folks, as you hear and read about the hundreds of outrageous things that are buried in this bill (like making it illegal to buy a personal health insurance policy from anyone but the government after 2013), remember ... all this crap, all of these Democrat efforts at 'healthcare reform' are intended to get this country into a single payer system. That is, health benefits, health insurance, health care - all of these are provided by the government or are under direct government control. This is the Democrat's stated purpose - it is Obama's stated purpose. Everything we see proposed and passed on healthcare are just stepping stones to that goal, and they will not stop short of the goal on their own. Their calendar makes all of this happen in 2013, after Obama's second term election. The taxes, the cuts in benefits, the attack on private insurance companies ... it is all timed to happen in that year. Why then? Because they know the outrage across the country as they see this crap implemented will be so great that a Democrat has no chance of reelection.

Remember - to a liberal Democrat, there is no health care reform unless the government is controlling health care.
