Raleigh, Frayed Agenda, Cats and Paper Bags

by the Left Coast Rebel

Folks I am busy! Something of a curse and a blessing; it seems that my manic schedule is also keeping me a bit out of the loop of current events, namely rapid changes in the health-care takeover via the Obamanation.


Driving home today I tuned into Roger Hedgecock here in San Diego - he has been a one-stop-shop against the socialist medicine push. He literally is an information machine, bettering even a lot of the national guys on content, clarity, activism and hard news. The focal-point of his show today was the Obamanation speech in Raleigh earlier.


"If you already have health care, I can't guarantee that your premiums will be cut in half, but what I can guarantee is your costs will be lower than if we don't have reform."


- Obamanation


Hmm, really? Talk about a change of tone. We are making a difference! Support, even in a massive Democrat congressional majority, is fractured and withering. Today the far-left in congress became irate over a deal that Nostrilitis Waxman struck with 4 Blue Dogs here. The vote on socialized health-care has also been put off until September or October. As I said, we are making a difference!

Have I ever mentioned that I love North Carolina and consider it a long-term destination if/when I am able to leave the socialist hell-hole that is California?

Back to socialized health care. As I mentioned above, many so called 'progressives' are angered by the acquiescence of leadership on the single payer provisions, they feel that the details aren't liberal enough and that potential results will be neutered.

Enter Maxine, (communist), Waters here on Blue Dogs, potential leftists to run against them in upcoming primaries -

“On the one hand they don’t want to spend money, but on the other hand they want to spend money when it benefits them or their district, There may be people out there listening and observing all of this who may get motivated based on what they’re seeing and throw their hat into the ring.”

OK so I get it. The Blue Dogs are mucking up the works and stalling, at least momentarily a Stalinist takeover of health care. Note how the PMSNBC talking bobblehead says that this is a once in 4 decades opportunity to ram this thing through. It is not whether or not it is good for America, on merit of the workability, or not. It is simply hastened because this is the now or never moment.

We're onto you press, liberals, Democrats, Obamanation and Sociailists - the cat is out of the bag.

And the last item on my hit-list today here. B Obamanation's own physician of 20 years on BO's stinky health care proposals -

"I look at his program and I can't see how it's going to work. He has no cost control. There would be no effective cost control in his program. The [Congressional Budget Office] said it's going be incredibly expensive ... and the thing that I really am worried about is, if it is the failure that I think it would be, then health reform will be set back a long, long time."

He is of course right on the cost aspect of the Obamantion health care propaganda. God bless this Mr. Scheiner, ( even though he is a stalwart proponent of 'single payer'), for having the guts, the nerve, the chutzpah to speak his mind and warn us all. What an incredible story, this reminds me of the whistle blowers inside ACORN.

Will the Chicago thugs come after him too?
