Obamacare issue reveals the real Obama: a real disgrace. Part 2 (after the press conference).
Again, Obama’s much-anticipated press conference on July 22nd, 2009, was just a pack of blatant lies straight from the mouth of Barack Hussein Obama himself. And the press corps didn’t call him out on any one of them. He spitted out completely fabricated numbers and projections all over the place that night. Obama didn’t even give details of his health care plan. He insulted doctors and assaulted white policemen. We learned more about Obama in that press conference than most anything he has ever said. A very teachable moment that night.
I was just laughing as I listened to Obama talked that night. None of what he said last night. He said he’s a deficit reducer. He said our economy is growing; we’re back from the brink. He said he’s cut deficit spending. He said he doesn’t like government. I was just laughing out loud hearing him saying that. None of those is true.
Another thing I laughed at was when he said, “Have you seen their profits lately, have you seen their profits? That’s not right, in this economy, profits too high. I will squeeze those profits.” LOL. Remember during one of the debates during the campaign he talked about the oil company profits. He said something like, “And they’re just not going to let go of those easily.” He’s after those profits. Those profits are none of his business. Businesses need profits to survive; and the more those profits are, it goes to expanding the company, the profits go to the shareholders, and the shareholders then can invest all the more, creating more jobs. Also, the more profitable a company is, the more jobs it can create and the higher pay it can provide for its employees.
And If he goes after the profits of the insurance companies, how is he going to do that? If they’re too profitable, in his view, what’s he going to do? Is he going to pass a law that says their profit can only be whatever percentage? Is he going to raise taxes on them? “Profit’s outrageous, we’re going to squeeze those profits.” Well, if you squeeze the profit, you squeeze them out of business because they’re competing with Obama and his public option, which doesn’t have to make a profit to live. That’s why him telling you that, “If you like your plan, well, fine, keep it,” is a blatant misrepresentation; and I’m being charitable there by calling it “misrepresentation.” You will not be able to keep your plan.
This guy has a resentment for private sector and its profits, and he plans to kill the private sector. Just read the bill yourself. To Obama the villains in health care are the insurance companies and doctors; and this was on display that night of this week press conference.
Many democrats and those in the press are upset that Obama didn’t give details of his plan.There is a reason why he didn’t give out details. Obama didn’t give details because the details would kill his plan. In December. Daschle said, “Details kill. If we get too far into the weeds, if we produce a 1,500- or 1,600-page bill, we’re going to get hung up on all the details and we’re never going to get to the principles… once Congress does take up a health plan, it also can’t divert attention to other subjects, he said. ‘Let’s not put it down, let it lie there for months and months and figure out a time when we can get back to it later.” Daschle advised Obama to keep you in the dark; and that is why Obama never gives out the details of this plan.
This isn’t about health care; it isn’t about health insurance; it’s not about the details of the plan. it’s about obtaining the legal means, without amending the Constitution, to get around the Bill of Rights. How do you do that? You take over one-sixth of the US economy: the entire health care business. Then the government can dictate and regulate every aspect of your behavior, because whatever your behavior is, it has ramifications on your health. This health care debacle is about control; it’s about regulating your life.
What a press conference by Obama. He whined all night, and lied about what he inherited. “We inherited a mess.” He lied about inheriting a $1.3 trillion deficit. The Democrats have been running the show in Washington since 2007, and Obama, while in the Senate, voted for everything that busted the budget. He voted for the “mess,” he inherited his own work.
Take a look at what Obama said during the press conference:
Obama: “A result of the actions we took in those first weeks we’ve been able to pull our economy back from the brink. We took steps to stabilize our financial institutions and our housing market, and we passed a Recovery Act that has already saved jobs and created new ones, delivered billions in tax relief to families and small businesses, and extended unemployment insurance and health insurance to those who have been laid off. Of course we still have a long way to go. And the Recovery Act will continue to save and create more jobs over the next two years just like it was designed to do.”
None of that is true! Our economy is not back from the brink. We have not taken any steps to stabilize our financial institutions and housing market; steps that were taken just made them worse. “Has already saved jobs and created new ones”???? We are over 9.5% unemployment and it keeps rising. There has been no tax relief to families and small businesses; did you get one? He did extend unemployment insurance. Health insurance? The Recovery Acts was not designed for recovery; it was not designed to save and create more jobs. His own treasury secretary Geithner said this was going to be a “jobless recovery.”
Obama told false facts and projections, he was lying through his teeth. He lied through his teeth to the press corps, none refuted any of the lies. You must have such high level of arrogance to come out to America and tell those lies, believing that the people watching him would just simply believe him. That pretty much summed up Obama’s press conference on 22 July 2009.
