The Hidden Costs of ObamaCare…

Back in September, around the 10th, David Axelrod of Obama’s administration talked to Wolf Blitzer on CNN. You have probably seen the video already. Hot Air had a post about it. Rush Limbaugh tore David a new one …

I believe that a federal law forcing the states to allow interstate health insurance competitiveness is unconstitutional. Of course the SCOTUS has ruled that if such laws are tied to a federal funds cutoff, say on Medicare/Medicaid, it is constitutional since the states have a choice. Obama did it with the unemployment insurance recently and the SCOTUS ruled the 55 mph or federal cutoff of highway funds as constitutional.

Axelrod’s such a jerk. O’Reilly was trying to kid around with him and being self-deprecating and good-natured and this orifice wasn’t playing along, but simply getting digs in at O’Reilly.

The sad thing is that even if Obama and this Demorat Congress does go away in a few years, Axelrod walks away with millions upon millions no matter what.

Obama’s plan is a hermaphrodite – not quite developed

See, I thought I’d read somewhere that Axelrod came from the heritage of an old family patronage of the Richard Axelrodncrack that slipped over the border from a U-boat into Canada in the mid-30′s.
He later dropped the “ncrack” because it sounded so, well, eewwwy.

the White House has argued incessantly that the public option’s entire purpose is to bring “competition” to their idea of a marketplace

This idea that the government plan can provide competition is such a lie. Competition can only exist when the failure to compete will put you out of business. It can’t exist if the existence of you’re product is written into law and will continue to exist if it is successful or not.

Blitzer Presses Axelrod on Opening Up Health Insurance to Interstate Competiton…

“That is not endemic to the kind of reforms that we’re proposing.” Well, Axelrod is right about that. The kind of reforms he has in mind involve killing off private insurance – not fomenting free-market competition to reduce costs. Via……

[...] Hopefully the competition argument will have legs: there is a great blog post on Hot Air with video of CNN’s Wolf Blitzer pounding on White House adviser David Axelrod about competition. Axelrod, evidently surprised that someone from CNN would question the wisdom of Obama, does quite the deer in the headlights dance to try and avoid the question. The well titled post is called Video: Axelrod not comprehending what “competition” means. [...]

They must have done some focus groups and determined “competition” was a buzzword that could work. Doesn’t sound at all like something socialistic.

Economic ignorance, pure and simple. Or a slick game of focus-group phrasing in order to mis-represent and mislead. Either way, more than enough reason to fight turning over 16% of the economy and a huge chunk of personal freedom over to political cronies and unvetted czars.

It is indeed all about power, absolute power. The route to absolute power is Fascism. The progressive movement is, and has always been, since the 1890′s a Fascistic movement. In fact, the early American progressive movement served as a template for what we know as European Fascism today.

In the primary debates HRC admitted the early origins of the progressives as a means to try to depict it as comfortable and familiar. Of course without going into detail. She even invoked the name of Woodrow Wilson when doing so. Little did her audience probably know Wilson was such an enlightened chap as tp say…

“Conformity will be the only virtue and any man who refuses to conform will have to pay the penalty.”

Does anyone think that if Americans were fully informed as to the true nature of who these people wish to emulate, that they would be alright with it?

If the public does not wake up to where the progressives wish to take us soon, they are going to be in for an awfully rude awakening!
