Well, the health bill has passed and is on its way to the Senate. If this passes, you can halve your disposable income and kiss small business goodbye… There is overwhelming rage out there among Americans who are the majority and who are against this travesty passed by Sneaky Pelosi on a Saturday:

The Hill – House health bill passes 220-215; 39 Dems and one GOP defect
The turncoat in the GOP is: Joseph Cao (R-La.) You’ve done yourself proud sir – I would wager you will not be reelected and that goes for all the Democrats as well. If you thought Americans were pissed off before, baby, you ain’t seen nothing yet…

The Hill – Dick Morris – ObamaCare endorsements: What the bribe was

Bookworm Room – Pelosi did it. Now, will Senate save us? *UPDATED*

The Jawa Report – House Dems Declare War on American People, US Constitution

Don Surber – Politburo passes health plan, 220-215

JammieWearingFool – Congress Voted To Fire Me Last Night

Doug Ross – PelosiCare’s price controls will bankrupt health insurers in one year

ALG Condemns House for Approving $2.1 Trillion “Takeover of Nation’s Health Care System”

November 7th, 2009, Fairfax, VA—Americans for Limited Government President Bill Wilson today condemned the House of Representatives for voting to approve “$2.1 trillion takeover of the nation’s entire health care sector in spite of overwhelming public opposition to the measure.”

Americans for Limited Government estimates the legislation will cost $2.1 trillion over ten years once fully implemented, and “will drive millions Americans off of private, employer-based health care, on to substandard, below-average government-run care, and open the door for a single payer system,” said Wilson.

The final vote was 220 to 215.

“This Congress is rotten to its core,” said Wilson, adding, “Members no longer represent their constituents, they serve the Washington political elite. They have succumbed to the insider deals, handouts, and kickbacks Nancy Pelosi needed to secure the votes for the federal government to claim an iron grip of one-sixth of the nation’s economy.”

Citing the Congressional Budget Office cost estimate of H.R. 3962, Wilson said, “This bill will raise taxes by more than $780 billion and cut Medicare by more than $450 billion. In the process, they are enraging political independents and seniors, both critical voting blocs for whom dozens of vulnerable members in the majority must answer to.”

“Members that voted for this abomination have signed a political suicide pact for which they will be held accountable,” Wilson declared. “They have gone against the express will of their constituents who opposed this legislation.”

The bill would force millions of uninsured Americans to obtain insurance or else pay a fine, includes employer mandates, and creates a national, government-run “public option.” Americans for Limited Government estimates more than 45 million Americans would ultimately be required to enroll in government care at an average cost of $4,700 per individual to taxpayers.

“As health care costs skyrocket because of the elimination of the private sector health options contained in this bill, so too will the costs owed by taxpayers, resulting in hundreds of billions of deficit-spending,” said Wilson. “Because insurance under the plan is mandatory, the more private insurers that are driven out of business by diminishing insurance pools, the more Americans who will be forced onto government-run and subsidized care.”

“This bill will ration care away from seniors, water down and reduce the quality of everyone’s care , increase health premiums, put bureaucrats between doctors and patients, break the public treasury, and leave taxpayers with a bill that cannot possibly be paid back,” Wilson added.

According to Rasmussen Reports, 54 percent of voters oppose the “public option” proposed, which only 42 percent support. In addition, James Carville’s Democracy Corps polls found a full 54 percent of seniors oppose the nationalized health care plan. According to the poll conducted in June, 41 percent of seniors strongly oppose the Obama plan and only 14 percent strongly favor it.

“To pass this monstrosity on the heels of Tuesday’s overwhelming election results against her party, Nancy Pelosi has clearly lost her mind and needs to check her meds. She doesn’t care if vulnerable members in her caucus are wiped out in 2010 or not,” Wilson said.

“Democrats are throwing away seniors as a political constituency,” Wilson added, stating in conclusion, “They are enraging independents, who see their children and children’s children being burdened with an unsustainable debt that will rise to $20 trillion in 2020 and top the Gross Domestic Product in 2011. And taking over health care against the express wishes of tens of millions of Americans who like their private health options and want to keep them.”

American Liberty Alliance – Congress just voted to destroy America (PelosiCare passed)

Outrage…

Fellow Patriots,

I don’t normally get this emotional when writing a newsletter, so I’ll have to apologize ahead of time. This is an emotional evening for me.

It’s 10:12 PM here in Chicago. I just watched a room for of Democrats (and one Republican) clap and cheer as they realized they had the votes needed to pass Nancy Pelosi’s healthcare legislation.

I honestly don’t think I’ve felt this angry in years. I can’t imagine how a room full of people elected to look out for our rights as Americans can so comfortably vote to strip us of them.

And worse, clap and cheer about their success in doing so.

I’m not sure if these thugs are just sick with power and look for complete control, or if they’re so heavily struck with narcissism that they genuinely don’t understand what it is that they’re doing.

But either way, this legislation seeks to destroy everything that made our country great. This bill rips from us our personal liberty, our reason for hard work, our drive for productivity, and our ability to be free in our personal responsibility.

Should this legislation pass the Senate, we Americans will be forced to choose healthcare that is run by a government of thugs and power hungry special interest shrills. And if we refuse, we’ll face up to $250,000 in fines and up to 5 years in jail.

At this point in time, I feel the urge to begin considering the reality of what we’re up against. I no longer have any desire to be politically correct. It’s time to start recognizing this for what it is.

Our Government, a body made up of powerful people entrusted to protect our liberty and freedom, has openly declared war on us.

If this legislation passes the Senate… I pray God will help us all.

Much to think about, folks. Much to consider.

Stay tuned.

For Liberty,
-Eric Odom

BETRAYAL: Tea Party Express Condemns Healthcare Vote

TEA PARTY EXPRESS CONDEMNS HEALTHCARE VOTE BY CONGRESS

“Shame On Them” Says Tea Party Leaders

“We’re Going to Vote Them Out of Office in 2010”

(ON THE ROAD FROM LAFAYETTE, LA) — The leadership of the Tea Party Express (website: http://www.TeaPartyExpress.org) tonight denounced the vote by the House of Representatives (220-215) to pass a healthcare bill that includes a government-run component.

“Shame on them! Congress chose once again to defy the will of the people who have spoken out at tea parties and town halls against this big government plan, because the politicians cared more about growing the size, power and control of government than what the people wanted,” said Mark Williams, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

“The politicians forget that the Constitution begins with the words, ‘We The People,’ not ‘We the Government.’ The people have made it clear they did not want this quasi-socialistic plan, and since they haven’t gotten the message then in 2010 we’re going to be handing out pink slips to these politicians. Enjoy your final days in office, and start searching the want-ads for a new job, because we’re going to vote you out of office,” said Deborah Johns, Co-Chair of the Tea Party Express.

The Tea Party Express is currently conducting a national cross-country tour holding tea party rallies in 40-cities across the country to defeat the efforts to impose a government-run healthcare plan and other related issues.

On Sunday the Tea Party Express will hold rallies in Baton Rouge, LA and Jackson, MS, and will continue through the southeast. On Tuesday, November 10th the Tea Party Express will hold a giant rally in Beaufort, SC headlined by Congressman Joe Wilson.

Last night Congress betrayed us. Not only did the House of Representatives ignore our calls, emails, tea parties and town halls, but they did so in the process of pushing through the Pelosi-Obama socialistic, Big-Government healthcare fraud.

And friends, this is why we are on the road right now with the “Tea Party Express: Countdown to Judgment Day.” Our whole point has been to send the message that if Congress is going to defy “We the People” and defy the constitutional principles of what our government should do – and what it should NOT do – then “We the People” are going to vote these politicians out of office and take our country back.

So here’s the deal – we’ve got 5 days left of this current “Tea Party Express” tour and we need to grow our crowds, and turn up the heat. We’ve now got to stop the Senate from moving forward on the Obama-Pelosi bill.

Here’s the update on where our grand finale stretch of rallies (including one featuring Congressman Joe Wilson). Please do what you can to come out and join us for one of these events – here’s our schedule: http://www.teapartyexpress.org/tour-schedule-2/

And you can help us make our final week of rallies even bigger, and help us defeat government-run healthcare by making a donation to the Tea Party Express.

Whether $25, $50, $100, $500 or any amount up to $5,000 (the maximum allowed contribution) we’d appreciate whatever donation you can make.

You can make a contribution – HERE.
