Howard Dean on the future of obamacare

Here's an interesting clip of Howard Dean, former Democratic National Committee Chairman and presidential candidate, espousing on the future of Obamacare.  President Obama makes a "clip within a clip" cameo appearance reiterating his empty promise that people can keep their existing health insurance and their doctor.  Period and end of story.




An intrepid reporter asked if the individual mandate was constitutional, he replied he didn't care because the courts would work that out.  His comment that small business would drop private insurance and dump their employees into the state exchanges was revealing of the true nature of obamacare.  Gee whiz, Howard, I seem to recall employers could be fined for not providing health insurance.  I hope it's a small fine if they decide to do that.  Of course, politician that he is, he also failed to answer the individual mandate constitutionality issue.  This tactic must be on page 1 of the democrats obamacare talking points handbook.

the wicked witch of the west speaks again

Quote of the week


“If everyone in America was very, very pleased with his or her health insurance and had no complaints, and had access to quality affordable health care in our country, it still would have been necessary for us to pass the health-care reform bill because we could not sustain the system,”  Nancy Pelosi January 4, 2011.


Counterquotes of the week


"It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress."
-- Mark Twain, 1894


"No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session. "
-- Mark Twain (1866) 


Here is a video of Nancy Pelosi trying to justify the tactics the democrats used to ram Obamacare through Congress.  Enjoy!




Mrs. Pelosi just doesn't get it.  The American people know the costs of health insurance is too high and heading higher.  The American people do not want more government interference in health care.  Obamacare scares Americans because it is a paving stone in the road to socialism.   This is why the democrats lost the house in the 2010 election.
