The refusal by ABC and NBC to run a national ad critical of President Obama’s health care reform plan is raising questions from the group behind the spot — particularly in light of ABC’s health care special aired in prime time last June and hosted at the White House.
[...]
“The ABC Television Network has a long-standing policy that we do not sell time for advertising that presents a partisan position on a controversial public issue,” spokeswoman Susan Sewell said in a written statement. “Just to be clear, this is a policy for the entire network, not just ABC News.”
Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the democrats are whining about how unfair it is that conservatives have become a community of organized protestors. According to Pelosi, we’re nothing more than a bunch of “political terrorists” hellbent on stopping free speech.
So now according to one woman in this video, (who may have been a cop), talking to someone else is considered resisting arrest? Watching this video, but be warned it may make your blood boil.
Denver photojournalist El Marco was at the event and has an amazing pictorial essay detailing how Pelo-cchio’s Astroturf brigade had to be coached by professional organizers — including several day laborers who didn’t speak English and couldn’t tell what the signs they were holding read. And they accuse Tea Party folks of being puppets?
Architect of Health Care Takeover Attempts to Appease Lap Dogs with ‘Watered Down’ Offer
Washington- As Democrat leaders begin to flail in desperation to revive their flagging healthcare takeover, Baron Hill may have just heard an offer he can’t refuse. Hill and his fellow Blue Dogs have been in negotiations with their party bosses as Nancy Pelosi and Henry Waxman attempt to force their bill to a vote in Congress. Today, Waxman offered Hill a ‘watered-down’ compromise in order to get him on board with his party bosses and leave Indiana families in the rearview mirror. After a morning meeting with House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman, Hill and his comrades had plenty to consider:
ACORN affiliates don’t want any “crackers” demonstrating against Obamacare it seems. They went batshit crazy on Tea Party activists protesting Obama’s health care takeover plans in Suffolk County NY. Shades of the New Black Panthers voter intimidation last November?
I was going to post this tomorrow, but now seems appropriate. After the successful rally we had two weeks ago downtown, we are organizing another rally. As senators travel to their home states over the legislative recess to hear from their constituents, Americans for Prosperity’s Patients First Bus Tour hit the road yesterday beginning it’s “Hands Off My Healthcare Tour”.
It will be in Fort Wayne the morning of August 17th. More details will be posted here in the coming week.
I don’t know if Tracy Warner or Dan Klugman at the Journal Gazette penned this, but they obviously have their head stuck far up their ass. As expected, they’re blaming the republicans for Obama’s expected failure on H.B. 3200. Maybe they should have a discussion with some of the blue dog democrats, who say the bill should not move forward without firm numbers on cost savings.

Indiana Republican Party Chairman Murray Clark issued the following statement about President Obama’s prime time press conference scheduled for Wednesday evening:
“Tonight, President Obama is taking to the airwaves to try to convince us it’s more important to get his health care legislation done quickly than to get done it right. The fact of the matter is there is not enough time in the next week to ensure that this 1,000 page bill does not increase the cost of healthcare, does not increase taxes on businesses or individuals, does not decrease our quality of care, and does not limit the accessibility or availability of private insurance.”
“I fail to understand how the President, as smart as he is, can convince himself that it’s appropriate to attempt to reform this huge part of our economy inside an arbitrary and dangerously condensed time frame. His original goal was three weeks; it’s not unusual for a family to take longer than that to purchase a house. Yet, despite calls from members of his own party to slow the pace, he continues to push a reckless timetable for his risky health care experiment.”
This video below depicts the real intentions of the liberal left and the Obama administration. Kill the insurance companies, kill more jobs. As of June, 2009 the insurance industry employed 2,2 million, with an average hourly wage of $23.64, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics [link]. How many of these people will lose their jobs if government-run healthcare becomes a reality?
President to Nation– My Health Care Plan for the Country Is NOT GOOD ENOUGH for HIS CHILDREN
You simply cannot make this up:
“Devinsky asked the president pointedly if he would be willing to promise that he wouldn’t seek such extraordinary help for his wife or daughters if they became sick and the public plan he’s proposing limited the tests or treatment they can get.
The president refused to make such a pledge, though he allowed that if “it’s my family member, if it’s my wife, if it’s my children, if it’s my grandmother, I always want them to get the very best care.”
Patients United Now will be in Fort Wayne on July 9th at 12:00 noon, with a presentation by David McIntosh, discussing the costs of government run health care.
During the Reagan administration, he served as special assistant to the Attorney General and as special assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs. During the first Bush administration, he served as executive director of the President’s Council on Competitiveness and assistant to the Vice President. He later represented Indiana’s second district in the House of Representatives (1995 until January 2001), becoming chairman of the Subcommittee on Regulatory Relief, which had oversight of environmental, labor, and FDA regulations.
