National Health Care....

"Insanity and incoherent ramblings by Wolf_Spyder"

I read the comments to my post and I believe FireFighter is on to something. "The Harpy" Hillary Clinton and Barack "The Marxist" Obama, are both pimping the idea of a National Health Care System. This system would be managed by the same government that has brought you; "Prohibition," "The War on Drugs," "The War on Poverty," "The War on Terror," and many other wonderful examples of our Government at work.

Wake up people! This is going to cost us billions in new taxes, and be just as successful as the War on Drugs. I mean come on, it's not like you can't buy drugs in any Jr. High School in the country.

Don't even get me started on Obama's Senate bill 2433. It is only going to cost us $65 billion a year to the U.N. (Retro back to the year 2002) to rid the world of poverty. Now this is up from the $15 billion we already give the U.N. every year to rid the world of poverty, for a grand total of $845 Billion by 2015. However, it doesn't stop there, oh no, the bill also Bans all civilian owned small arms & light weapons, it also commits us to ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty (very bad for our Armed Forces men and women), the Kyoto Protocol (Global Warming treaty of which China is exempt, even though they lead the world in Green House Pollution), the Convention on Biological Diversity (another Climate Change / Global Warming treaty), the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (Among many really good things, it is a treaty which affirms the reproductive rights of women, basically a pro-abortion clause in an otherwise good treaty) , and the Convention on the Rights of the Child (I guess we can't correct our children any more...). Now these sound good on the surface, but we Americans are getting screwed in the end.

Why is it we Americans finance the U.N. but we do not have a seat on the U.N. Human Rights Council? Oh, maybe because Russia, China, and the other "civilized" dictatorships voted us off the Council. Go figure.

No Thank You, Barack Obama.

  1. The bill doesn't ban weapons nor does it force us to comply with any of those treaties. The bill as it was presented to the Senate tasks the president with coming up with a strategy to alleviate global poverty. While it will surely cost money, it doesn't commit us to the said $845 billion. It does note, however, that the at the G-8 Summit in 2005, those countries involved, including the U.S., agreed to increase spending on poverty to $50 billion by 2010. It's basically a "feel-good" bill that makes Obama look good. It doesn't commit us to doing anything that we don't already do. To read exactly what the bill says, look at: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:S.2433:
    Read Section 4, that is what the bill will do.
