Have you heard about this yet? The Whitehouse has a website (whitehouse.gov), and they have a blog on this website. There’s an article posted on August 4th; the gist of the article is complaining that opponents of government health care are saying things that the government believes are untrue about the plan, and they want you to turn them in! This was copied right from the website;
“Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.”
What kind of crap is this? Is the Whitehouse telling me that I no longer actually have a right to free speech? Or are they just afraid that the message explaining that the only way this government health-care can possibly be funded is by rationing care. You must have heard Obama speaking to a group and explaining how some old lady needing a hip replacement should instead receive pain pills and end of life counseling. How much clearer can he make it?
And what about Obama’s health-care advisers (not cabinet members, but untouchable czars and advisers.) They include Zeke Emanuel (who is also the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel) wrote an entire article on this subject in the Lancet on January 31, 2009. Emanuel advocated allocating health resources in order to maximize collective life years. Suppose a 25-year-old and a 65-year-old have a life threatening disease. Since the 25-year-old has many more potential years of life ahead of him, he should receive preferential treatment, says Emanuel. If that doesn’t stink of eugenics (social engineering – also see Nazi Germany), well, it does.
Oh, how about Obama’s Science Czar John Holdren? He’s the guy who wants to put a sterilizing agent in our drinking water!
Holy Crap! The ugliness of this administration is really coming into view.
I’m a radical? I’m a danger to the country? Those courageous people taking their Senators and Congressmen to task at townhall meetings, demanding explanation and clarification from their representatives are extremeists? I don’t think so.
