Charlie Wilson strikes again

Here a Dispatch story about the rising cost of health care. The increased cost to Ohio tax payers (this is just the first quantifiable hit we are going to see) is $1,450,000,000.

This is due to our new socialized medicine bill that Comrade Charlie Wilson voted for.

Charlie Wilson: Who's to blame for this pro-abortion "health care bill"??

When he votes for this bill, he will "own it" just as much as barry does.

All he has to do is vote no. But he won't. He's tied at the hip with our embarrassment in chief to grow a back bone of his own and vote to protect his district from this monstrous, debt increasing, states rights infringing, baby killing bill.

Charlie Wilson is no "conservative pro-life democrat". He will vote exactly like Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco.

He will be voting to use your tax money to kill babies. What has our country come to when our representative can justify killing innocent babies because he thinks this bill has some good things in it. I say "he thinks" because he hasn't read it. No one has had time to read it. Yet, he'll vote for it.

He is going to vote for a bill that is unconstitutional. No where is this allowed in the constitution. The 10th Amendment specifically denies it. He swore to uphold the constitution, yet he is going to lie to us with this one vote.

He is going to force young people to pay thousands for health insurance, even though this is one group that does not need it. It's a choice that needs left up to individuals, not government. Then if folks don't get insurance, they'll pay a fine. The fine will be small enough that many will just pay the fine rather than the thousands for the privilege of being in a government run health care system. Then, when these people that don't get insurance do get sick, they can just start paying premiums and get their sickness taken care of. No insurance will be able to deny them insurance due to the law (Wilson will vote for) which will not let people with "pre-existing" conditions be denied insurance. HMM... this is going to save money how???

I could go on. This can be summed up with this: Bad bill + horrible representation = bad law.

Media=Idiots / Idiots = Media

Here's an Associated "press" "story".

It's related to Idaho passing a bill directing their Attorney General to sue the Federal Government when / if "health care" is passed.

This is the sentence that really proves that the media have no clue about our government or our Constitution.

"Constitutional law experts say the move is mostly symbolic because federal laws supersede those of the states."

Two thoughts:

  1. You don't have to be a "constitutional law expert" (whatever that is) to know that the federal government only have specified (in the constitution) powers. If they are not specified in the constitution (see 10th amendment) they have no power over the states. (of course the states let themselves be rolled by the feds because the fed can print their own money and bride states to go along with dumb and totalitarian ideas.
  2. Anyone can hire an "expert" on any subject with any view point you want to pay for.
One more reason no one takes the so called media serious.

The sick choices of socialized medicine

This is just the beginning of macabre questions and debates.

Marcy Kaptur Democrat congresswoman from Toledo is trying to decide if it's better to kill babies or let folks die because they have no health care.

What kind of a sick world will this become when the government starts making these choices for us?

Um, Doc, can we go ahead and pull the plug on this 81 year old.....we have a27 year old over here that needs his liver!!!

"It creates a real dilemma for me," she told a Plain Dealer reporter just off the House floor. "The question I've been asking myself is, under which option do you lose more -- how many abortions occur a year, versus how many people die from no insurance every year?"

No Charlie, you're no Joe Wilson

Our Congressman Charlie Wilson wants folks to know that he is not Congressman Joe Wilson.

No Charlie, no one would confuse you with someone that could call a liar a liar.

While Joe Wilson fights our Disaster-in-Chief, Charlie Wilson rides around in Air Force one with him.

Charlie Wilson is too busy spending the country further into debt.



Too busy giving your tax money to convert human urine into some sort of fuel.

Charlie Wilson brags about voting for the disastrous "stimulus bill" while unemployment is almost 10% nationwide and 14% in Ohio....higher than that in his own district......and it continues to rise after this "stimulus". Which leads one to think that his vote had the effect of making the economy worse off.

Joe Wilson voted against the "stimulus bill".

Charlie Wilson holds "news conferences" at gas stations to complain about the high gas prices, yet does not say a word of support for drilling in Alaska.

Joe Wilson supports drilling in Alaska.

Too busy to sign on as a cosponsor of HR 1207. The common sense bill that would allow an audit of the Federal Reserve. Yes, that's right, there are no external audits of the Fed. The same fed, with it's cheap interest rates and fiat money that causes our business cycles...boom / bust cycles.

Joe Wilson is a co-sponsor.

Don't worry Charlie, no one could confuse you with Joe Wilson!

Obama lies about abortion coverage in speech

LifeSiteNews.com story here.

Notice who casts a vote for abortion in this bill?....our Zach Space. The same Zach Space that pretends like he's a conservative at election time, but votes like a San Fransisco demokrat when in Washington.

This is not a mis-statement, Biden really belives it!

“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you.”

CNSNews.com story

The event, sponsored by the AARP – which supports the Obama administration’s plan – was attended by mostly AARP members who were bussed in for the meeting.

To you AARP members, there is no real doubt anymore that the AARP is a Marxist organization and a shill for Obama.

But it is a lie

Here Congressman Zach Space even votes to allow illegal aliens to have health care benefits....which you will pay for, of course.

A different take on Space's "Tea-Bagger" comment

Congressman uses vulgar sexual term to slur constituents

Open letter to Comrade Congressman Charlie Wilson

From the Monroe County Beacon


Dear Editor,

There are many questions I’d like to ask the Honorable Charlie Wilson. This letter is in response to Charlie Wilson’s letter sent to his constituents via e-mail on 8/19 “Myth vs Fact” on the Health Care Reform Bill.

Statement number five states that this “bill will not cause employer based coverage” (i.e. private) “to be crowded out by a public” (i.e. government) “Insurance option, but that a public option is only one of many choices that will be offered.” However, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that any government option (i.e. funded by our taxes) does not have to make a profit in order to stay in business and that it won’t take long before businesses will drop their private insurance plans for their employees because they can not compete with the government option. This will in turn force many people and employers to turn to the government option. Soon, the government/public option will be the only one left in business and thus we will be a country with socialized health care, see sec. 313 “Employer Contribution in Lieu of Coverage’ in HR 3200. There is no incentive to keep a private option in the plan. By year five all health care will be integrated into the federal system. In addition, as for being able to keep our health care, that is not what the document says on page 16 of the 1017 page bill or Sec. 102 “Choice to Keep Current Coverage” specifically section 102 (2) from HR 3200 which states you will have to merge into the public option if there are any policy adjustments for any reason. Doesn’t sound like we’ll have much choice.

In response to statement number 1 where you state that this bill will not create deficit spending: I ask you why should we believe a government who has failed to run our own government without a deficit and whose Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security programs are all broke - or soon will be? What makes this program any different than ones the government has already tried to run? Based upon the government’s past experiences of handling our money to fund their many programs, they will have to raise taxes to pay for this program too. They will say that costs have risen too quickly or needs are greater than expected and they must increase the tax base in order to continue this program. Once the private insurance companies are out of business, what other choice will each of us have? Each of us are already working till about April 13, every year, in order to pay the government their portion of our money (i.e. taxes). I do believe that if each of us had less taxes to pay (i.e. tax cuts), our greater in pocket cash would allow many more of us to be able to afford some health insurance.

In response to statement number six, where you state that this bill will not cut jobs. I remind you that all those people in the private insurance business, will eventually be out of a job. In addition, in my opinion, it will also dissuade people from wanting to become doctors in the future because their income will have to fixed, by controlling the amount to be paid to the doctor for any type of procedure, etc. Otherwise how else could this government run option manage their finances? So, government will artificially (not be supply/demand) keep costs down – which again is another government control – i.e. loss of the doctor’s liberty.

In response to statement number eight where you state that “There is a terrible myth being spread that health care reform promotes euthanasia.” Now granted, there is no provision in the bill to pay for euthanasia. However, all one has to realize is that there will be a set amount of funds in this program and as in every business, management is always looking for the best way to spend their capital. Unfortun-ately, it most likely will be decided upon by age of the client and the seriousness of the disease. So, if there is a choice to be made between a younger person who needs an operation and an older person who needs one (and there will be many every day), my guess is that the younger person will always win out; one of the reasons being that the elderly one has already lived most of his life and thus the younger person should be given that opportunity now. thus, the elderly will – more often than not – have reduced quality of life care, which can – though not always, lead to a desire to be put out of their pain/problems – i.e. euthanasia. This not not the case with our health care system today. Our elderly have available to them the best health care in the world.

One other point I’d like to raise that was not in his e-mail letter is that Charlie Wilson has always claimed to be a pro-life Congressman. However, in this health care reform bill, even though the term (s) abortion or abortion legislation, are not used, President Obama has said that “reproductive care is at the very heart of his health care plan.” Also, we need to look no further than the federal Medicaid statute which does not mention the word abortion, yet Medicaid had funded as many as 300,000 abortions/ year prior to the enactment of the Hyde amendment. Yet this health care overhaul bypasses the Hyde amendment – which restricts federal funding of abortions through Medicaid; even if it did apply to the health care bill, it would still have to be subject to annual re-approval. So, I ask you Congressman Wilson, how can you support a health care bill that in actuality will be killing many of the babies’ lives that you say you support?

* However, the most important question is one of constitutionality! Our Constitution has never given to the federal government the right to take over private businesses such as this administration has done with the automobile industry, banking industry, mortgage business (Fannie and Freddie) and now the health industry. Our government should never be running the private business sector. That is definitely one of the characteristics of a fascist government. As it states in Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, we are a country governed “of the people, by the people, and for the people”, not by an oligarchy.

This health care reform bill takes away too much of our inalienable right of liberty and gives it to our government to dole out as they see fit – definitely a characteristic of Big Brother Govern-ment knowing what is best (socialism). Instead, let us strive to correct the problems within the private system we have today – such as tort reform, refusing illegal aliens health care who have not payed into the system, etc., all those things that cause our health care costs to skyrocket.

There are other ways to control health costs rather than to give away our liberty to control our own body’s health. I urge you to vote against this horrendous socialistic health plan and to research other ways of reducing health care costs that would enable us to maintain what is left of our free market/capitalistic society on which our country was founded. Once our liberty is gone, it is almost impossible to get back.

Let us never forget the lives and fortunes that our founding fathers sacrificed for our precious freedoms as well as Patrick Henry’s famous words: “Give me liberty or give me death.”

Sincerely, Amy Zehnder
Clarington

House Committee Again Fails to Deny Illegal-Alien Access to Healthcare Benefits

Zach Space has completely left the reservation. Now he works to allow illegal aliens access to tax payer funded health care!

Today, the House Energy and Commerce Committee endorsed an amendment sponsored by Rep. Zack Space (D-Ohio) that was designed to provide political cover for Representatives who want to give illegal aliens benefits under the healthcare reform bill (H.R. 3200). The amendment’s language reaffirms current law, which prohibits illegal aliens from applying for state Medicaid and child health insurance programs, but does not require states to verify whether applicants are actually eligible to apply. Therefore, H.R. 3200 will continue to allow states to require little more than an attestation of citizenship in benefit applications.

Under the health care bill, states would be required to automatically enroll non-traditional Medicaid individuals to the proposed government-run option. An amendment offered yesterday by Rep. Nathan Deal (R-Ga.) would have required states to verify an individual's citizenship status before automatically enrolling them. That amendment was defeated by one vote. Rep. Space, the sponsor of today’s amendment, was one of those who opposed the Deal amendment.

The Committee passed its portion of the bill tonight by a 31-28 margin. Before passage, Chairman Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) noted that that the remaining amendments not considered tonight will be placed in a separate bill. When Congress returns from recess, the committee will mark up and pass that bill. The Rules Committee, he said, would deem it to be an accepted amendment for floor debate on H.R. 3200.

Big spender (with your money) Charlie Wilson


"This surcharge would affect only 1,100 households in the entire 6th district – that means 99.6% of taxpayers in the district would not see their tax rate change.
"

Congressman Charlie Wilson, July 29, 2009

Didn't Woodrow Wilson also promise that the new income tax in 1912 would only affect the "rich"?

We see how that worked. There are not enough "rich" people to cover all the costs of "health care".

Don't be fooled, Space is no moderate...neither is Wilson

“The Blue Dog caucus represents a significant and effective check against the dangers of extremism when it comes to party politics,” said Blue Dog Rep. Zack Space (D-OH). “We understand that the left wing of our party doesn’t have it right all of the time. We understand that the Republican party doesn’t have it wrong all the time.”

Speaking of extremism....what is voting for the cap and tax bill if not extreme. The largest tax increase in US history is moderation?

Space is no moderate and neither is Comrade Wilson.

Apparently they are taking turns pretending to be conservatives. Space voted for the cap and tax bill while Bolshevik Charlie opposed it. Now Wilson supports the health care / taxpayer funding of abortions bill and Space is beating his chest like he's really standing up for his constituents....after the cap and tax vote, of course.

These two are lunatics that don't represent the values of southeastern Ohio.
