Sen. Richard Burr (R(ino)-NC) was saying this on WPTF 2 weeks ago. They are just transferring the costs onto Medicaid.

You from Cacalacky? Where abouts? Burr is our only hope. Hagan would never stray from the Obama crowd.

There will be huge cuts in prenatal care because there will huge cuts in “prenatals”.

There will be huge cuts in newborn care because there will be huge cuts in “newborns”.

Currently, black women have the highest rate of overweight and obesity in the country. Will they be punished for not losing weight?

Can you believe any of his cost estimates? Remember how the President keeps saying that Obamacare will save money? Well, one way he can claim that is if he rigs the system through his treatment of Medicare and Medicaid. But as you will see, ultimately,…

This meme is utter misdirection, Obama was begot by a Kenyan party apparatchik/Minister Of Trans and a spoiled daughter of weathy commie parents. The so called humble beginings where Anne Dunham attended the “little red church on the hill” was located on Mercer Isl. WA. An exclusive patch of land on Lake Washinton and where Bill Gates very humbly currently resides!

Further, his indoctrination in Hawaii was at an exclusive private school where he was mentored by Frank Marshall Davis, the “Frank” of Dreams of my Father. A former editor for the commie rag “The Chicago Star” outta Hyde Pk. An upscale ‘hood where both he and Ayer’s now reside.

Hyde Pk. has long been the hot bed of American communism and Progressive politics, ala FDR’s stomping grounds.

The length and breadth of the connections is a bloody labryinth!

The president has decided — just days before the deadline he himself set for passage of health-care bills in both chambers of Congress — that he wants to create a new and very powerful executive branch agency, the Independent Medicare Advisory Council (IMAC), which would be accountable only to him and have the authority to re-write the Medicare program from top to bottom by executive memo.

NRO Corner.

Imagine what Obama will do to Medicare, too.

Only problem with this is they will take us down with them. And being in the political class, eat first of the best at every meal. Like Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences.” —C.S. Lewis

I would tend to say these sum up Bama and cadre pretty well.

(hehe. just joking)

This is correct. And if Obama’s transcripts were available, I beleive you would find that both he and Ayer’s studied under them at Columbia and had apt’s a block away from each other.

I’d be satisfied with his Student application. After all, we all have children that we’d like to college, now don’t we?

I just want to see what got Obama into the best schools in the USA, considering he was just a poor black child from Chicago’s Wouth Side, dont’cha know.

The Cloward-Piven strategy was inspired by Alinsky, so they’re one and the same. I believe Cloward and Piven were both students of Alinksy.

Obama’s 1/2 white brother revealed?

Scott H: Oops,thanks for the heads up,I stuck my foot in
my mouth again!:)

Calling it “Obamacare” isn’t going to make it somehow less successful. I think a few concessions will be made to make it a “bipartisan” bill, but an overhaul is almost completely certain by the fall at the latest. Screaming about it won’t stop it…just makes you look like an idiot.

Right. Because it’s the 2 trillion dollar deficit that gets the chicks.

lorien1973 on July 20, 2009 at 5:51 PM

Alinsky stressed that success depended on upon infiltrating & co-opting the existing system….

“There’s another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevski said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution. To bring on this reformation requires that the organizer work inside the system, among not only the middle class but the 40 per cent of American families – more than seventy million people – whose income range from $5,000 to $10,000 a year [in 1971]. They cannot be dismissed by labeling them blue collar or hard hat. They will not continue to be relatively passive and slightly challenging. If we fail to communicate with them, if we don’t encourage them to form alliances with us, they will move to the right. Maybe they will anyway, but let’s not let it happen by default.”[4]

See, Obama, the chicago communist party renamed the “New Party”, of which Obama was a member and their migration into the structure of the Chicago Democratic party.

Cloward Piven picks up where Alinsky left off, once you’re inside C/P gives a detailed template on how to bring the system to it’s knees. Successfull demonsrated in NYC prior to Gullianni’s restoring some sanity.

ACORN pursued these tactics by the way of Carter’s CRA. Clinton’s/Rubin’s transfer of responsibility for dicey mtg’s from local banks onto Fannie & Freddie’s balance sheets. In the end with taxpayers holding the bag. A text book “manufactured crisis.”

As Alinsky posited….

They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution.

Obama & Co. think they’ve acheived the conditions with the US in such financial distress, for their agenda.

The troll comment wasn’t directed at you. ;)

just makes you look like an idiot.

From an expert on the subject. getalife.

Looks like screaming does something.
