Such a move would significantly weaken America’s ability to combat the growing threat posed by Iran’s ballistic missile program, and would hand a major propaganda victory to the Russians.”"

New Health Proposal Is Industry's Favorite So Far:
WASHINGTON -- The latest health overhaul plan circulating on Capitol Hill gives health insurers, drug makers and large employers reasons to heave sighs of relief, sparing them the higher costs and more burdensome rules included in other Democratic-written alternatives.
Industry players that have already struck bargains with President Barack Obama's administration and leading Democrats to help pay for revamping the health system saw most of those deals left intact _ and in some cases sweetened _ in the $856 billion proposal unveiled Wednesday by Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., the Finance Committee chairman."

American Thinker: What I Saw at the Revolution:
Do you think there'll be porta-potties?' Was the anxious question my husband asked. He's in his fifties, after all. He asked about restroom facilities several days before we left for DC, and enjoined me to 'find out on the internet' because he thinks I can find out anything on the internet. It was from the various conservative blogs and forums that I haunt on the net that had inspired me to put together this trip to DC in the first place."

At his nationally televised address to Congress on Sept. 9, President Obama talked long and hard in an effort to sell his grandiose healthcare scheme. Meanwhile, the 800-pound gorilla in the room representing the town hall protests across the country, sat quietly, waiting to be acknowledged. Unfortunately, for the majority of the country having serious concerns over healthcare 'reform', no acknowledgement was forthcoming."

This is one of those cases in which the imagination is baffled by the facts.' - Adam Smith
Health care inflation is a topic that lends itself to considerable demagoguery and 'straw men arguments' from the left, where it is often attributed to capitalism and the free market. Their solution: more regulation and the creation of a massive new government entitlement program to provide every American with 'comprehensive' health insurance. Unfortunately, this solution will only exacerbate health care inflation as it completely ignores the major causes of the problem -- rising government health care expenditures and increased regulation."

No, Mr President | The Weekly Standard
It's about time someone knocked the "Chosen One" off his thrown for a few!!!
The Weekly Standard:
In his 60 Minutes interview to be aired tonight, President Obama apparently says, 'I intend to be president for a while and once this bill passes, I own it....I'm the one who's going to be held responsible. So I have every incentive to get this right.'
No, Mr. President. It’s not about you. If legislation passes, you don’t own it.
We all own it. Any health care bill will become part of the U.S. Code, not simply an item on the Obama White House web site. We will all feel its effects. We are all responsible for the future of our country. Here the people rule."

More significantly, the most important words involving any piece of modern legislation come after that legislation has been signed into law."

Tens of thousands of conservative protesters, many complaining that the nation is racing toward socialism, massed outside the U.S. Capitol on Saturday, angrily denouncing President Obama's health-care plan and other initiatives as threats to the Constitution.
The crowd -- loud, animated and sprawling -- gathered at the West Front of the Capitol after a march along Pennsylvania Avenue NW from Freedom Plaza. Invocations of God and former president Ronald Reagan by an array of speakers drew loud cheers that echoed across the Mall. On a windy, overcast afternoon, hundreds of yellow 'Don't Tread on Me' flags flapped in the breeze."

President Barack Obama this week has been laying the foundation for Senate Democrats to use a controversial budget maneuver to pass healthcare reform.
By offering Republicans olive branches during his address to Congress on Wednesday, Obama has set up a win-win situation. If GOP lawmakers embrace compromise, a healthcare bill would pass Congress easily. But the more likely scenario is that Republicans will continue to oppose Obama’s plan, and the president later this fall will be able to note he tried to strike a deal with the GOP but could not."

Sarah Palin: Obama and the Bureaucratization of Health Care - WSJ.com:
Writing in the New York Times last month, President Barack Obama asked that Americans 'talk with one another, and not over one another' as our health-care debate moves forward.
I couldn't agree more. Let's engage the other side's arguments, and let's allow Americans to decide for themselves whether the Democrats' health-care proposals should become governing law.
Some 45 years ago Ronald Reagan said that 'no one in this country should be denied medical care because of a lack of funds.' Each of us knows that we have an obligation to care for the old, the young and the sick. We stand strongest when we stand with the weakest among u"

What did they do last night after we got off the air? Last night when I went off the air, I said on the air, I believe Cass Sunstein is probably the most dangerous czar out there, but I had hope because we had three senators standing up against his confirmation because this guy is not actually a czar."

House Health Care Bill Will Hurt Small Businesses: A Reply to My Critics
House Health Care Bill Will Hurt Small Businesses: A Reply to My Critics:
On August 28, Igor Volsky, a health care researcher and blogger at the Center for American Progress, posted a story claiming The Heritage Foundation released a biased report on the effects of the employer play-or-pay mandates contained in the health care bills currently working their way through Congress.[1] Sadly, it is Volsky who is misleading policymakers.
Myth: 'The four health care bills before Congress require large employers to either provide coverage to their workers or pay a tax to finance the expansion of health care coverage.'
Fact: Many small businesses are large enough to qualify under the bills."

“Fees” Are Taxes and New Taxes Are Not the Answer � The Foundry
“Fees” Are Taxes and New Taxes Are Not the Answer The Foundry:
According to a New York Times story on Sunday, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) plans to propose a new “fee” on insurance companies to help pay for a costly liberal health reform package. This “fee” would allow Congress to penalize their straw man du jour, insurance companies, while attempting to pay for part of one of the trillion dollar proposals being debated in Congress this week. However, these “fees” are nothing more than taxes hidden behind a thin veil of “fairness” rhetoric. They would actually fall on ordinary Americans, not insurance executives or stockholders."

The poet Gerald Manley Hopkins disposed of a rival by saying that he spoke with 'the air and spirit of a man bouncing up from a table with his mouth full of bread and cheese' -- saying that he will stand no more 'blasted nonsense.'
In the same spirit, President Barack Obama bounced up from the table where he supped with organized labor over Labor Day and declared that he would stand no more blasted nonsense on the issue of health care. In a dramatic display of presidential impatience (deploying the rhetorical devise of anaphora, or repetition of a phrase at the beginning of successive sentences), he said:"

I've finally figured out what it is about liberals. They speak a different language. It's a language not even meant to be understood by ordinary human beings but only by those in the know.
Let me tell you how I arrived at this. I read David Brooks' column in the New York Times last week -- he hasn't completely succumbed to the Grey Lady yet -- and Brooks suggested that anyone who wanted to 'get fundamental' about healthcare should read a report called 'Bending the Curve: Effective Steps to Address Long-Term Health Care Spending Growth,' just put out by the Brookings Institution."

American Thinker: Give Me Liberty... or Give Me Health Care?
American Thinker: Give Me Liberty... or Give Me Health Care?:
Much has been made in the recent weeks and months about the French health care system, which was ranked first by the World Health Organization (WHO), as a model for US health care reform. The French system spends considerably more (11% of GDP) than the single-payer systems of Canada and the UK but considerably less than the US (16% of GDP). The French system has been described as one that avoids rationing; where doctors have freedom to prescribe whatever treatment and order whatever tests they want; and where a resident of France gets whatever service he or she desires, regardless of ability to pay."

The Left is terribly concerned that 'we' are spending too much money on keeping people alive as they get older. But Ted Kennedy didn't seem to mind that 'we' provided state-of-the-art cancer care for him, presumably through his wonderful insurance as a US Senator; I have yet to hear of a single 'Man or Woman of the Left' -- as they like to dub themselves -- who would object to healthy (and wealthy) aging for themselves. I don't see George Soros checking out the suicide clinics in Holland. I don't hear any eagerness to cut short Jimmy Carter's lifelong support for bloody-minded Islamofascists; but Mr. Carter is 85 already."

So far, the Obama administration’s plan for dealing with the budget deficit — an estimated $9 trillion over a decade — is to not dig the hole any deeper. That’s an important first step. President Obama deserves credit for proposing ways to pay for his two big initiatives to date: health care reform and energy legislation. Reducing the growth in health care costs, in particular, is vital to curbing future deficits."

Charles Krauthammer - Obama's Magic Evaporates in the Heat of the Health-Reform Debate
Charles Krauthammer - Obama's Magic Evaporates in the Heat of the Health-Reform Debate:
What happened to President Obama? His wax wings having melted, he is the man who fell to earth. What happened to bring his popularity down further than that of any new president in polling history save Gerald Ford (post-Nixon pardon)?
The conventional wisdom is that Obama made a tactical mistake by farming out his agenda to Congress and allowing himself to be pulled left by the doctrinaire liberals of the Democratic congressional leadership. But the idea of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi pulling Obama left is quite ridiculous. Where do you think he came from, this friend of Ch�vista ex-terrorist William Ayers, of PLO apologist Rashid Khalidi, of racialist inciter Jeremiah Wright?"
