Obamacare & Unalienable Rights

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - Congress, July 4 ,1776

Have you seen the proposed health care bill by the Democrats? It's a paltry 1,018 pages. Just light reading if you've got nothing else to do, however, this should be mandatory reading for every elected official who's required to vote on it! And if any elected official worth his or her weight in salt would actually read the thing, there's no way they could vote for it - not if they're a REAL American who believes in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

You don't even need to get past page 16 of the Bill to find out that owning private health care will be outlawed. Oh, there's that grandfather clause, which states that you can keep your current health care if you like it. I think that's what Nobama was referring to when he said on the ABC Informercial and elsewhere that "you can keep your current plan if you want to." Sure! Great! But if a person changes jobs or wants to change insurance after the Govt. plan goes into effect, then you're up a creek without a paddle. There will be NO CHOICE in the matter. Well, that sounds American, doesn't it?

And once the Govt. plan becomes law, then there's no way to actually purchase private insurance. It will be outlawed. How's that for the American way. It's like the old days where when choosing the color of your phone you had a choice - as long as it was the color black. Likewise, we'll have a choice - The Govt. plan. So, where's the 'Liberty' part of the Declaration here? It's being stripped away!

And how about paying for abortions with public funding? This puts salt in an already festering wound for the American people. As America grows increasingly against abortion the Govt. under Nobama in Obamaland increases funding for abortions. Most reasonable people know that babies come from mommies' tummies. Ask any child about the 'lump' in pregnant woman's stomach and they'll tell you that there's a baby in there. Gee, if children get it why can't the elected officials get it? Nevertheless, they're in charge and we have to deal with them like the little children they are! Do you really want to fund abortions for people who make the choice to have sex but then don't want to take responsibility for their actions? And to make matters worse, we the American tax payer are paying for murder. So, where's the 'Life' part of the Declaration here? It's being stripped away!

And what about the rationing and denying of health measures that can lead to a better quality and quantity of life? Sure, under the Govt. plan Nobama and Pelosi have promised the American people that these sorts of things will not come to pass; that what we're hearing from Canada and Europe (people being denied cancer treatments that can save lives; nine month waiting lists for arthritis medicine; months waiting periods for maternity beds, and the list goes on) will never happen here. Can we believe them? Weren't we promised that the after the massive Stimulus package was passed that unemployment would not exceed 8%? Where are we now? Over 9% and still growing. And now the Govt. is talking about yet ANOTHER Stimulus plan because the other one wasn't big enough.

How will all this bigger government and increased spending get paid for? You guessed it - increased taxes on the very people who provide the jobs we need; small business and the wealthy. Obamacare will be a HUGE detriment to the growth of the economy and will most likely be the death knell for the America we know and love. So, where's the 'pursuit of Happiness' part of the Declaration? It's being stripped away!

The Silent Majority can be Silent No More! Obamacare goes against the Declaration of Independece on the most basic levels. Let's get out of our comfort zones. Call your congressional representatives. Call your senators. Tell them to read the bill COMPLETELY before voting on it or DON'T VOTE FOR IT! That's just common sense. Tell them and remind them that they work for you - you're the one they're supposed to represent and not their own interests or the interests of lobbyists. Call, write and visit their local offices if they have one. You're not pestering them. You're doing your duty to protect America. But time is running out! Pelosi and Reid want Obamacare passed before their August recess. That's only WEEKS away.

Use your common sense and American rights. Be silent no more!

God's blessings.
