Democrat memo – don’t discuss health care legislation details (Update)

By Steve McGough | March 19, 2010 |

Today and this weekend, Democrats don’t want to talk about the details of the Senate health care legislation or the House committee reconciliation act. They would rather just stay with lies, it’s easier. “Your federal government will make things better.” Hogwash.

Obamacare’s smoke and mirrors

By SoundOffSister | March 18, 2010 |

The “reconciliation” bill has finally seen the light of day. If you are on Medicare, or, have insurance either through your employer, or, on your own, fasten your seat belts. Remember the $500 billion cut to Medicare?  It’s now $535 billion.  Unless Obama can turn back the hands of time for those who may be approaching 65, the…

Obamacare: more bad news from Massachusetts

By SoundOffSister | March 17, 2010 |

As you no doubt know by now, Obamacare is designed to bring to the entire country what Romneycare brought to Massachusetts.  We are told that under Obamacare, as was told by Romney to the residents of Massachusetts, uninsureds will now have insurance coverage and it won’t cost the taxpayers anything, your health costs will go…

Monday (Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri) morning call to action – Stop current health care legislation

By Steve McGough | March 17, 2010 |

Some Democrats claim health care legislation will be passed by the end of this week, some insist there are not enough votes. Either way, this week will be another make-it or break-it week for Democrats. We must succeed in stopping this terrible legislation.

Doctors to Obamacare – “I quit!” Plus Hatch to Congress – “You’re nuts”

By Jim Vicevich | March 17, 2010 |

Forget the AMA, most Doctors either don’t belong or don’t buy into it’s political agenda. Doctor after doctor who have called my show have said the same thing, government take over of healthcare, either through bureaucratic determination of protocol or pay, will either make them retire, or wish they were. 46.3% of primary care physicians…

Obamacare and student loans

Given the title of this post you are, no doubt, wondering how these two concepts could possibly be linked.  But, they are. To jam Obamacare down our throats, the House must first pass the Senate bill, and, simultaneously pass what I call the “fix it” bill.  The “fix it” bill will include the things that the House…

True “rights” exist simultaneously between people
