Or does she think we are?
How in the hell did she end up speaker of the house?
I personally think the monstrosity they are trying to shove down our throats is nothing more than 2000 pages of confusing camouflage so the Insurance and Pharmaceutical industries can keep ripping off the American People.
It's a bunch of crap!
Until we have real campaign finance reform and run the lobbyists out of D.C. or put a bounty on them, ether way works fine as far as I'm concerned.
Until we boot all the sold out incumbents back to their law offices or whatever occupation they claimed they worked so hard at before being elected. And elect people who will work to represent three hundred million Americans, not just the special interest elite.
Until these things are a reality, Health Care Reform, Consumer Financial Protection, and damn near anything else Congress passes is elite approved bullshit, favoring one and a half percent and screwing the other ninety eight and a half percent of those three hundred million Americans.
Check http://www.opensecrets.org/index.php and see how much money the people on the Health Care Reform committees in the House and the Senate were getting from Insurance and Pharmo sources.
I am absolutely disgusted with what's happening in this country.
THIS IS THE 2ND OFFICIAL WHO HAS OUTLINED THESE PARTS OF THE CARE BILL
Please read this........ especially the reference to pages 58 & 59
JUDGE KITHIL wrote:
"I have reviewed selected sections of the bill, and find
it unbelievable that our Congress, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, could come up with a bill loaded with so many wrong-headed elements."
"Both Republicans and Democrats are equally responsible
for the financial mess of both Social Security and Medicare programs."
"I am opposed to HB 3200 for a number of reasons.
To start with, it is estimated that a federal bureaucracy of more than 150,000 new employees will be required to administer HB3200. That is an unacceptable expansion of a government that is already too intrusive in our lives. If we are going to hire 150,000 new employees, let's put them to
work protecting our borders, fighting the massive drug problem and putting more law enforcement/firefighters out there."
JUDGE KITHIL continued: "Other problems I have with
this bill include:
** Page 50/section 152: The bill will provide insurance
to all non-U.S. residents, even if they are here illegally.
** Page 58 and 59: The government will have
real-time access to an individual's bank account and will have the authority to make electronic fund transfers from those accounts.
** Page 65/section 164: The plan will be subsidized (by
the government) for all union members, union retirees and for community organizations (such as the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now - ACORN).
** Page 203/line 14-15: The tax imposed under this
section will not be treated as a tax. (How could anybody in their right mind come up with that?)
** Page 241 and 253: Doctors will all be paid the same
regardless of specialty, and the government will set all doctors' fees.
** Page 272.! section 1145: Cancer hospital will ration
care according to the patient's age.
** Page 317 and 321: The government will impose a
prohibition on hospital expansion; however, communities may petition for an exception.
** Page 425, line 4-12: The government mandates
advance-care planning consultations. Those on Social Security will be required to attend an "end-of-life planning" seminar every five years. (Death counceling.)
** Page 429, line 13-25: The government will specify
which doctors can write an end-of-life order.
HAD ENOUGH???? Judge Kithil then goes on:
"Finally, it is specifically stated that this bill will not
apply to members of Congress. Members of Congress are already exempt from the Social Security system, and have a well-funded private plan that covers their retirement needs. If they were on our Social Security plan, I believe they would find a very quick 'fix' to make the plan financially sound for their future."

All of the above should give you the point blank
ammo you need to support your opposition to Obamacare. Please send this information on to all of your email contacts.
Anyone with a teacup size brain could see that Pelosi was way out of her league and was no leader from the start........BUT SHE IS STILL AROUND !!!! WAKE UP AMERICA, is this stupid or what to allow someone so detrimental, so ignorant of the nation's problems, so insincere and removed from the importance of her position to remain anywhere near or involved in laws made for the national interests.........some of the comments she came out with (i.e., "we will vacation when we want" when important work was left undone and hanging that held up the entire country) should have told the entire country she was there to party, draw her paycheck, enforce her importance, and make a mockery of the office.........is this all America had to offer???????
The circus that goes on in public by congressional members these days is abhoring......and were worse under Pelosi!!! We have youngsters modeling from this type of behavior !!!! Thank God for John Behner now who expects his people to be above this type of behavior as he has stated......believe Behner is about the only one, along with Mike Huckabee and one or two others, with any common sense, who have shown any knowledge of right and wrong, and the guts to stand up for what the people have stated they need......only hope they don't change now that they have a chance to do some good for the country....................
I was so proud and actually felt return of some Patriotism when listening to Behner's interview on TV, he really stood his ground and did not allow words to be put in his mouth, did not swerve at all and was very adament about what he meant when he made statements.....this is what we need more of now in our leaders, he really hit a note in reality.........I don't care how emotional he is as long as he continues holding up for what the American people want.........God bless America even though we have forgotten Him.................
Health Care And Hospitals: Scam
http://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=200388

The charges, in fact, were mind-boggling. A statement the hospital sent to my insurance company, Aetna, showed that Good Samaritan billed $22,214.92 for a four-hour emergency room visit that included a physical exam, sedation, endoscopy and extraction of the stuck food.
Even more astonishing, Aetna agreed to pay only $2,885.67 for the services — just 13% of the bill — and the hospital settled for that amount.....
.....As but one example of what I discovered, consider Ondansetron HCl, an anti-nausea medication that both hospitals administered to my son. Good Samaritan charged $439.90 for the drug; Aetna allowed $77.63. Somerset charged $6.52; Aetna paid $3.26.
Medicare pays 17 cents per dose.

"The federal government would save as much as $130 billion in Medicaid in 2014, but it would be on the hook for $230 billion in new insurance subsidies," Holtz-Eakin wrote. "The net bottom line: a $100 billion annual expansion in federal costs."
He added, "It seems safe to say that the [health law] will leave the taxpayer on the hook for an additional $500 billion or so in federal costs over the first 10 years."
