Now it is Obama's turn to expound the tremendous benefits of the recently adopted "Fairness Doctrine"... And the money tree.

1) Why would the government any interest in this information?

2) The people who do have interest in it, like health insurance companies, already have it and may use it to deny you coverage in the future or greatly increase the cost of that coverage or maybe to deny you a job.

3) If the government did want this information, they would hack into whatever records they wanted within a few hours regardless of this law.

I bet a lot of people who had employer paid health insurance are dropped as soon as Obama care goes into effect, because the penalties are less than the premium costs. But not to worry, the .gov employees and Congress will still have their first class health care paid for by us.

This will be every RINO rallying cry for the rest of America's short life:

"Pick me, pick me, I'll repeal Obamacare."

Then when they get to CONgress it's all about external threats (Iran, Syria, etc.) AND internal threats (domestic terrorists like you and me).

Guess who this tax applies to - the poor, the Occupy Wall Street crowd - people who are currently paying no Federal Income Tax! (All "fat cats", who have insurance through work are exempt.)

So Obama now becomes the new Senator Jesse Helms, who proposed a State Tax on food because the poor did not pay their fair share of taxes!

I don't see why the Democrats are crowing about this -  as Edith Bunker used to say "Archie hasn't thouht it out that far".

BTW. The Supreme Court ruling was right - if it looks like a tax, walks like a tax and quacks like a tax, its a tax!

Then why didn't they call it a tax. By calling it a 'tax', which it really is this legislation would never have seen the light of day. The whole thing was a lie from the start. I am sure Thomas Jefferson never envisioned: "We have to pass the law to see what's in it"

Top CIA Spy Accused of Being a Mafia Hitman

Enrique “Ricky” Prado’s resume reads like the ultimate CIA officer: veteran of the Central American wars, running the CIA’s operations in Korea, a top spy in America’s espionage programs against China, and deputy to counter-terrorist chief Cofer Black — and then a stint at Blackwater. But he’s also alleged to have started out a career as a hitman for a notorious Miami mobster, and kept working for the mob even after joining the CIA. Finally, he went on to serve as the head of the CIA’s secret assassination squad against Al-Qaida.

That’s according to journalist Evan Wright’s blockbuster story How to Get Away With Murder in America, distributed by Byliner. In it, Wright — who authored Generation Kill, the seminal story of the Iraq invasion — compiles lengthy, years-long investigations by state and federal police into a sector of Miami’s criminal underworld that ended nowhere, were sidelined by higher-ups, or cut short by light sentences. It tracks the history of Prado’s alleged Miami patron and notorious cocaine trafficker, Alberto San Pedro, and suspicions that Prado moved a secret death squad from the CIA to Blackwatern this sense, there are two stories that blur into each other: Prado the CIA officer, and Prado the alleged killer. The latter begins when Prado met his alleged future mob patron, Alberto San Pedro, as a high school student in Miami after their families had fled Cuba following the revolution. Prado would later join the Air Force, though he never saw service in Vietnam, and returned to Miami to work as a firefighter. But he kept moonlighting as a hitman for San Pedro, who had emerged into one of Miami’s most formidable cocaine traffickers, according to Wright (www.wired.com)

Let's see the shit-eating Federal bastards try to enforce this fucking piece of shit "law".

Like all government programs, this crap will be poorly - I mean assholy -  managed, UN-enforceable, and rife with corruption.

I get to fire all clients that even hint of being "for" this piece of shit "law". The fuckers quake in their boots if they are for this piece of shit "law" and come near me. I'll blast them into kingdom come. Go find a commie throne licking Obama scum sucker for an adviser.

I hate Progressive fucktards. Always have - the shit-burgers have no sense of anything other than commie collective bullshit.

What type of advice do you provide - anger management?
Great idea to exclude half of potential clients.
I'm sure your business is very successful.
What is it - "Buy High Sell Low" and then do "Buy ones that pay me the highest fees f the client"

MORE BULLSHIT. 

THIS IS IRRELEVANT. THE MEDIA WANTS TO SPIN THE SUPREME COURT OPINION AS NEWS. IGNORE THE 'NEWS'. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF IT WAS APPROVED OR NOT, 

 

just like it makes no difference if obama or romney is elected.

Hey libertarians, your ideological lens has a blind spot ( plural, actually). I'll provide a hint, but I doubt you'll see it. But, maybe, just maybe, once you stop spitting nails and chill, the fog may lift or the smoke clear.

Public healthcare is simply a human right.

Obamacare is an outragous attempt to foist a Soviet-style socialist health care system onto the American public.  Romney recognizes the fact that in this country good health should NOT be a birth-right - it is a PRIVILEGE - and a privilege that should only be available to those who are hardworking, wealthy, and smart enough to pay for their own insurance.

We should not try and emulate socialist hell-holes like Australia, Canada or Sweden where every dead-beat can access free public health systems regardless of whether they've saved up to pay for it or not.

This nation got to be great through people standing on their own two feet and taking responsibility for their own health and wellbeing. Not one dime of our taxes should go towards supporting socialized free health care for those too lazy, poor, old, disabled or stupid to look after themselves.

Romney’s pledge to abolish Obamacare is only a start.  He also needs to commit to ending all other existing socialist programs in this country including Medicare, VA, Medicaid and Social Security. These government-run programs are just pandering to people's laziness and lack of personal responsibility.

Medicare in particular is the worst socialist program ever introduced in this country (by another lefty Dem President - Lyndon Johnson in 1965). It's a single payer government run program funded from taxes paid by you and me - to support old sick people we don't even know!

Back in the '60s the GOP fought long and hard to prevent this communistic system becoming law. As Ronald Reagan said at the time the Dems were trying to force this thing through "If you and I don’t stop Medicare then one of these days we are going to spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it once was like in America when men were free.”

George HW Bush Described Medicare in 1964 as “socialized medicine at its worst” and. Same with Barry Goldwater who said: "Having given our pensioners their medical care in kind, why not food baskets, why not public housing accommodations, why not vacation resorts, why not a ration of cigarettes for those who smoke and of beer for those who drink.”

Social Security is another communist program that needs to be abolished right now. The U.S. Social Security program is the largest government program in the world and the single greatest expenditure in the federal budget, accounting for 20.8% of the total budget?!  And what is 'social security' ? It’s nothing but a program to take hard-earned money from the likes of you and me to allow lazy old people who didn't bother to save for their retirement during their working years to live high on the hog.

Nothing worse than creating programs like this which give lazy people a sense of entitlement.

So good on Romney for committing to the repeal of Obamacare.  Now I just hope he goes that necessary step further and commits to the unwinding the other socialist and communistical atrocities such as Social Security, Medicare, Medicade and VA - which are also totally unconstitutional and anti-American.
