07.30.2009 Way to go congressman. Single payer health insurance is the way to totally taking away our freedom. Full video here: www.youtube.com Partial Transcript: Katrina Vanden Heuvel: Competition is at the heart of America. To deny Americans competition by denying them the option of a public plan seems to me to be un-American. Paul Ryan: Whats weird about that line right there, Katrina, is that I know you and others are very much in favor of a single-payer plan, which is obviously to deny competition and have the government run it all. Whats concerning about this debate with me is that youre using capitalist rhetoric to try and move a plan that is inherently anti-market. The problem is that the facts tell us this: A public plan option quickly becomes a government-run monopoly.The actuaries are telling us is that in a few short years, the public plan option displaces the private sector, employers dump their employees on the public plan, and then they have no choices but the public plan. And so, lets not try to sell a government-run plan using free market rhetoric. Lets have an honest debate about what this bill is all about.

Is this health care reform or the path to government run health care? I believe that it is the latter, and for good reason. The good reason is that I heard it come right out of their mouths in this video. Only a fool would not see what they have planned for our health care system. Is that what the American people want? Do they want their health care system run by government bureaucrats who know nothing about health care and who care nothing about your health? And I’m really getting tired of Obama’s continual straw man argument on this issue where he says that his opponents are in “denial that reform needs to happen”. That is not true, and in fact we have a lot of good ideas that the Democrats will never let through congress because they involve private enterprise and freedom, which I’ve lately come to the conclusion that they are against. Obama speaks half truths when he says that if you already have health care insurance that you like, and a doctor that you like, that you will not have to change a thing. The fact of the matter is that you, and or your employer will be taxed to pay for the health care of all those who choose to join this “public option”. So why would you and or your employer continue to pay for your own health insurance, and through taxes the health care of tens of millions of people, when you have the option of joining the “public option” yourself? The fact is that you will join it; you will be coerced to though excess taxes. Also, if the government plan …

Ain’t it just like a Republican to decry the system while simultaneously sucking on its teat? Mike Vanderboegh, of Pinson, Ala., former leader of a collection of microphallused thugs known as the Alabama Constitutional Militia, is yet another a case in point. Similar to the way we can set our clocks to the regular outing of anti-gay Republicans being exposed as self-loathing closet-cases bent on inflicting their manias on normal society, we can also randomly throw a rock at any Teabagger party to hit any one of the numerous hypocrites enjoying the freedom made possible by the Socialism of the government dole. This clip is from the Mike Malloy Show that aired on Thursday, March 25th. 2010. With his usual cutting analysis, Mike Malloy eviscerates Vanderboegh’s hypocrisy with help of Taradacktyl from RepublicanDirtyTricks.com Mike Vanderboegh has garnered a lot of press in the last couple of days due to his inciting sore-loser moronic Cons like himself to break the windows of offices of Congressional Democrats who voted for Health Insurance Reform, which will keep Americans from dying or going bankrupt if they get sick. Given the utter hypocrisy and lack of irony these Teabagger types possess, many of them will themselves be afforded a more humane and comfortable existence due to the very Democrats they now seek to intimidate with their Nazi Brown Shirt tactics. Like other violent ideologues throughout history, Mike Vanderboegh and his functionally illiterate followers …

Obama wants the federal government in the health insurance business, with the eventual goal of eliminating private insurance companies. His allies will stop at nothing to get this accomplished, including demeaning opponents as racists, nazis, “rednecks”, etc. — but will it work? Americans are not too keen on the idea of Obamacare AKA federal government’s eventual takeover of the healthcare insurance system.
