keepthefaith Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 This is outrageous. Let's stop sugar-coating it. The democrat party has become the communist party (they just can't admit it publically)... Jarrett (closest advisor) = communist Jones (green jobs czar) = communist Dunn (communications director) = communist Stern (person granted most visits with the president) = communist Obama (communist mentor, advisors) = communist Obama is for clearly pushing the agenda of the union worker. That's why he wants to take over the health care system (a necessary step towards unionizing 1/6th of the US economy), that's why he wants to tell people how to think and if they still don't agree basically call his detractors too stupid to understand his message, and that he knows best, and that he's ramming it through for their own good. If anyone believes that he actually cares about reducing the health care costs of the average American people then you are indeed the stupid one. Obama comes from the cesspool of Chicago politics, where there's always a hidden agenda behind the curtain. With adding Andy Stern to that panel, Obama is doing the exact OPPOSITE of what needs to be done in terms of deficit reduction for the greater good of America's future generations. Specifically, what new New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is doing to the bloody murder screams of the union workers... http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2010/...ch_on_budg.html "Let’s tell our citizens the truth—today—right now—about what failing to do strong reforms costs them. One state retiree, 49 years old, paid, over the course of his entire career, a total of $124,000 towards his retirement pension and health benefits. What will we pay him? $3.3 million in pension payments over his life and nearly $500,000 for health care benefits -- a total of $3.8m on a $120,000 investment. Is that fair? A retired teacher paid $62,000 towards her pension and nothing, yes nothing, for full family medical, dental and vision coverage over her entire career. What will we pay her? $1.4 million in pension benefits and another $215,000 in health care benefit premiums over her lifetime. Is it “fair” for all of us and our children to have to pay for this excess?" http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2010/02/n...weeping_pe.html "Despite a show of force from hundreds of protesting union workers, the state Senate today easily passed legislation that would dramatically change public employee pensions. The changes, which now head to the Assembly, are on a fast track and have already been endorsed by Gov. Chris Christie — who has said he wants even stronger reforms. The three bills each passed in 36-0 votes. “Those chants out there should really be cheers,” Sen. Nicholas Scutari (D-Union) said of the union members in purple and red shirts packing the Statehouse hallways. “We’re acting to save the future checks that these people are going to get. If we don’t take action now, there’s a very real likelihood ... that at some point we’re not going to be able to afford the pensions that they’ve been promised.” Andy Stern was appointed to the deficit reduction panel by Obama???? Really???? Why doesn't he just cut to the chase and change the American flag to the hammer and sickle. The communists are going to get hammered in november. The thought of another three years of Obama is downright scary. The irony is that all of those young people who voted for him are going to be the ones left trying to pay off his four year pig out. BTW, I used to be a democrat! It is scary. He's all about social and economic justice for the unproductive class and this permeates his policies. Like most Dems, he's buying votes with other people's money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted March 9, 2010 Author Share Posted March 9, 2010 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...PJxlE&pos=9 March 9 (Bloomberg) -- Erskine Bowles, co-chairman of the commission on U.S. deficit reduction, said costs of entitlement programs such as Social Security may turn the nation into a “second-rate power” if costs aren’t reduced. “We’re going to mess with Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security because if you take those off the table, you can’t get there,” Bowles, 64, said today in a speech to North Carolina bankers. “If we don’t make those choices, America is going to be a second-rate power and I don’t mean in 50 years. I mean in my lifetime.” The Libs must love hearing this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...PJxlE&pos=9 The Libs must love hearing this Actually, they do because of this: “A value-added tax ought to be something that’s on the table,” Bowles said in an interview last month with Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt.” There are “no sacred cows,” Simpson said. Just like Dems like to pretend that the health bill will be "paid" for by gutting Medicare, this is a ploy to enact a national sales tax because that's the only way to manage out of control entitlements. The bet is that the public cannot put two & two together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
