The Health Care Swindle

Save the rending of your garments, conservatives, and the gnashing of your teeth. This is not really Black Saturday, however the witless/uneducated Legacy Media trumpets tonight’s passage of PelosiCare. This always was going to be the sideshow charade before the big show which will be in the Senate and, maybe, beyond.

The Senate still has to pass a version of this economy- and job-killing turkey. Then the two versions have be reconciled in conference committee and the result voted on all over again. Only then does our bloodless president get to apply his rubber stamp. Plenty of time remains to provide a mercy killing for this crippled and retarded bird. Just like for the economy- and job-killing Cap & Trade Swindle which will have no effect on the amount of carbon in the atmosphere.

Unlike the debt-quadrupling, already-law Stimulus Swindle which has only raised unemployment above 10 percent. That mule has left the barn. As for the other two, hey, it ain’t over until it’s over. And even if they pass, then the constitutionality lawsuits will begin. Among other things the bills assault property rights and dictate the purchase of health insurance on penalty of imprisonment. Yep.

No matter how much the liberal Democrats would like American government to be a dictatorship of the Left, it isn’t. The founders knew what they were doing. First the complicated passage. Then the lengthy legal checks and balances will begin. Plenty of time for even the dumbest pol to notice the downward polling trend and do some personal career calculating. So relax.

“…eventually all medicine will be rationed by politics”

That is, says the Wall Street Journal, the inevitable outcome of "the worst piece of post-New Deal legislation ever introduced" the 1,990-page "runaway train" the Democrats are just proud as punch of producing. Barry calls it a "critical milestone." With any luck, it will be one that costs them the White House for a generation.

The last laugh

The enthusiastic, barely-educated young helped put Barry into the White House. Yes we can, etc. If Obamacare passes, they’ll be the ones paying for it. Step right up. Pay $100 a month for the least expensive insurance plan or a $750-$950 annual penalty for singles for not buying it. The penalty’s cheaper, of course, but that way you get nothing for your money. But, hey, you got the thrill down your leg of electing Barry, right?

Obamacare opposed by doctors

Would anyone find this very surprising? How would you like being taken over by the government? The only surprising thing is that the American Medical Association (which only reps 18 percent of doctors) apparently backs Barry’s "plan," the one he doesn’t actually have. The House bill, in other words. (This guy will sign anything.)

You, dear, are over your Biblical limit

For shame, Mrs Petrowski. Costing Obamacare so much unnecessary expense. Well, Dr. Barry knows just what to do. Let’s go up on the hospital roof and, uh, look at the stars. Or something. Biting humor from Iowahawk.

UPDATE: The things Obamacare is meant to solve remain unsolved by the Brit’s national health system.

Unintended health consequences

Ross Perot’s 1992 giant sucking sound soon will be "the sound of Grandma going to one of the scores of new hospitals in Tijuana, Nogales, and Ciudad Juarez that will cater to Americans getting around the restrictions of ObamaCare. Yes indeed, the President’s health care plan will do wonders for the Mexican economy."

Heh.
