ObamaCare on it's 5th Anniversary

Here is the reality of Obamacare on the 5th anniversary of it's enactment. These are pretty much on target with the sentiment across America. Latest Rasmussen poll has the country 58% to 42% in favor of repealing ObamaCare in it's entirety.

The SCOTUS case King v. Burwell has been argued and is being debated among the judges in order to arrive at a decision.  Applying the letter of the law they should render a decision which will eliminate the subsidies in the 30+ states which have not created state run health Care exchanges.  This will effectively gut the law and show ObamaCare for what it is, a communist inspired income redistribution scheme which is as anti American as any law ever written in the history of America.  The sooner it goes away, the better off the entire country will be.

Comments from the Western Journalism article titled "Obamacare's fate?":
Comment #1:
"never before has Government hounded and persisted in insisting compliance as they have with this Obamacare issue. They have failed to meet expectations, so instead of revisiting the law, they push back deadlines, yet again and again. When unions complained of unfair treatment, special exceptions were instituted. All the while, the very people who voted this garbage into law are themselves exempt! Don't know about anyone else, but this skunk stinks so why not call it as you smell it?"
Comment #2"
"I LOST MY DOCTOR. PERIOD
I LOST MY POLICY. PERIOD.
I GOT NO 2500 SAVINGS PER YEAR. PERIOD.
ALL I GOT HAVE BEEN LIES...
LIES LIES LIES AND MORE LIES...it's working if you like losing your doctor. period. it's working if you like losing your policy. period. it's working if you like not saving the $2500 per yr the president said you would save per family
can i believe anything else coming out of this white house???
as a life long democrat i suggest the obama administration and democratic senate scramble to grunt obamacare into the toliet and flush it like you would any unwanted feces. it's that bad. if they can not see this, they are in denial and doomed to being the minority party in the future. take care of the few that have no insurance and get out of the way for the rest. why are you screwing 90% to help the 10%??? no $2500 dollar savings for anyone i know. most are double triple increases, unless you are poor or illegal.... and on medicaid that gives substandard care. time to wake up my fellow democrats......time to wake up america."

Yes America, it is time to wake up.  The more the government takes the more America becomes a second class nation.  We need to eliminate the travesty which is ObamaCare and replace it with a market centered private insurance system in which the individual owns and manages their policies.  One in which you the individual decide what is right for you and your family and you the individual chooses the doctor who is right for you and your family.  The reality of ObamaCare is that you no longer have this right.  We as a nation must eliminate ObamaCare in order to regain our rights as individuals.

The latest Rushbo Controversy

I don't agree with the mandate forcing contraception as a part of all health care plans. My reason is very simple -- I don't agree that the government or employers either, should be involved in the management of an individuals health care. But the issue has really gotten out of hand with all the back and forth rhetoric.

Earlier this week a Law student at Georgetown University complained that her school, operated by a religious organization should be required to provide her with free contraception as part of her health care plan.

At the end of this week, Nationally syndicated radio show host rush Limbaugh spoke out against the lady in question because of her views. Here is the quote from his radio show.

"What does it say about the college co-ed [Sandra] Fluke who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex? What does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. [. . .]
If we are going to pay for your contraceptives, and thus pay for you to have sex, we want something for it. We want you to post the videos online so we can all watch."- Rush Limbaugh

I don't care what the reason, this is not acceptable as far as I'm concerned. Whether you agree with her position or not, she doesn't deserve to be called vulgar names on a public show. Just additional validation of why I stopped listening to Rush back during the early years of the Clinton administration.

Obama "Changes his mind" on birth control

Well, it seems like Obama is flip flopping again, or as a liberal friend is forever claiming, Obama is just changing his mind again and that is fne. Of course in doing so, he is forcing the insurance companies into giving away freebies in the form of contraception and morning after pills. So out of the fire of opposition comes another government forced handout. Give me a freaking break! Will we never see an end to the hypocrisy? This administration would be comical if it weren't so tragic.

This isn't a catholic issue. It isn't a religious issue and it isn't a health care issue This is a freedom issue and another example of Obama's duplicitous self serving nature. The problem as I see it is the fact that there are many more instances like this to come as we get deeper into the "obama Cares Act" if it isn't repealed. Never forget the immortal words of that paragon of intellect Nancy Pelosi -- "we have to pass it so you can see what's in it". Well, we're beginning to see what is actually in it and what we see is even worse than what was envisioned.

I certainly hope the Catholic Bishops don't consider this appeasement justification for stopping any campaign against a president who will so transparently attempt to undermine their principles. They should increase their efforts now that they understand the true position of Obama and the nefarious nature of his health care plan.
