This seems to be a trending topic among the State Run Media…  Remember when CNN used skewed poll numbers?

Well, in the latest WaPo/ABC poll, 33% of those polled were Democrats, and only 20% were Republicans…

           Democrat  Republican  Independent
10/18/09      33         20           42

And here is the fuzzy question in question…

8. Would you support or oppose having the government create a new health insurance

plan to compete with private health insurance plans?

           Support      Oppose
10/18/09   57           40

The only problem with that question is that private insurance can’t compete with the government.  It isn’t possible.  It is fundamentally not possible.

The government does not need to make a profit.  They don’t have overhead, they don’t have to meet a budget.  They have the power to tax.  Private insurance does not have that power.

Oh well…I guess the Liberal Media can continue to be the lap dogs of the Government as opposed to the guard dogs for the people.

Here’s what’s going on here.  These youths from Ron Clark Academy are on the set of CNN, singing a song for health care reform to the tune of Miley Cyrus’ “Party in the USA.”

According to these youths, the reason there isn’t bypartisan support is because of Joe Wilson…

I don’t really know what to say about it…

This is absolutely insane.

The Politico is reporting that Senator John Ensign received a handwritten note from Joint Committee on Taxation Chief Tom Barthold saying that “if there is a willful failure to file, pay, maintain appropriate records and the like…the taxpayer may be charged with a misdemeanor with a penalty of up to $25,000 and not more than one year in jail.”

Umm…hello?!  If you don’t have health insurance, you may be fined and go to jail!

Check out the note after the jump…

Ladies and gentlemen, CNN’s section on healthcare reform interviewed a gentlemen from Portland Maine.

Joe Ray owns a fish and shellfish company and has seen his sales jump 30% in this economy…obviously he’s doing something right…

“‘I think I’d rather just be left alone,’ Ray said. ‘Just pay my bill and try to deal with it that way.’
A fiscal conservative, he has a simple view of President Obama. “Right now, he is just spending, spending, spending, and I just hope it helps the country,” Ray says.

Hey, fiscal conservatives!  You have a simple view of Barack Obama…But, in this situation, a simple view is all you need…

But is that the whole story?

Alan Colmes is reporting that the CNN poll shows the speech was a success…

CNN says that Obama’s health care numbers jumped 14%…

But let’s take a look at the results…

Click here to read the full results…

You’ll see that they polled nearly twice as many Democrats as Republicans…

$750 for individuals; $1500 for families.  Oh, and if you’re successful–as in 3x the poverty line, $950 for individuals; $3800 for families.

Will Obama be in favor of Sen. Max Baucus’ plan?  As a candidate, he opposed mandatory health insurance and issuing taxes to punish those without health insurance…

Average Americans will be furious.  Average Americans will continue to protest.

Folks, this is not about insuring everyone’s health, this is about the systematic take-over, buyout, or forced-bankruptcy of private industry.

Remember when Barry wanted to bankrupt the coal industry?

Or when he bought General Motors?

Yeah.  Barack Obama is his name, Fascism is his game.

Yes, folks.  A supporter of Barack Obama’s fascist, socialized health care plan bit off a protester’s finger.

There was a rally in support of healthcare reform last night…and I think it may have been MoveOn.org people…more on that later…

One of the supporters confronted a 65 year old man who was protesting healthcare reform.

The supporter and the protester got into a fist-fight which ended when the supporter bit off the protester’s finger.

The man’s finger was reattached at an area hospital, and he was sent home that evening.

This is sick, ladies and gentlemen.

The British healthcare system is sentencing people to death.  It’s called “The Liverpool Care Pathway.”  This “Pathway” is dangerous.

“Under NHS guidance introduced across England to help doctors and medical staff deal with dying patients, they can then have fluid and drugs withdrawn and many are put on continuous sedation until they pass away.”

Well, no crap!  Of course if you take away their meds and fluids, they will die.

This comes on the heels of a recently released study, which said that one million patients have been subjected to cruelty.

Doctors look for certain signs that patients may be close to death, like unconsciousness or difficulty swallowing medication.

Folks, many times patients are heavily sedated…and many times those medications are like horse pills…

“If a patient is judged to still be able to eat or drink food and water will still be offered to them, as this is considered nursing care rather than medical intervention.”

Oh, how nice of them.  Humanitarian aid while they kill their patients…

The British Department of Health had this to say, “The Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP) is an established and recommended tool that provides clinicians with an evidence-based framework to help delivery of high quality care for people at the end of their lives.”

Folks, while this is a big victory, we still must keep a watchful eye.

Barack Obama has said the healthcare bill does not require a public option for his approval.  Obama’s senior advisor David Axelrod said,

“It’s time to synthesize and harmonize these strands and get this done. We’re confident that we can do that. But obviously it is a different phase. We’re going to approach it in a different way. The president is going to be very active.”

The Politico reports, “‘We have been saying all along that the most important part of this debate is not the public option, but rather ensuring choice and competition,” an aide said. “There are lots of different ways to get there.’”

Now, folks, they may not have a public option now, but if we let up, they will slowly bring about a fascist, socialized health care system.

Folks, in a stunning display of his Democratic insensitivity, Harry Reid said that the death of Senator Ted Kennedy would help the health care movement.

While he may be right, he shouldn’t be right.

The only bill that deserves the posthumous Kennedy name is one that allows for the will to live to be calculated into health care matters.  Kennedy’s will to live was just as great as any other American’s.  Why should he have the luxury of being allowed treatment at his advanced age of 77 for what proved to be terminal brain cancer, when hundreds, thousands, millions of Americans would have to forgo treatment because of rationed government care?  Adding his name to such a bill, or pretending he would have endorsed such a bill, does him, his death, and his name a disservice.
