Health Insurance

Take Back Talking Points is back from the dead. This episode we discuss the health care reform bill passed by the House and the swine flu and the vaccine controversy. We talk about the public option and whether it will be effective, forced health insurance and a possible big handout to the insurance industry, and the H1N1 (swine flu) virus, how serious a threat it might actually be, and we try to make some sense out of the vaccine controversy. And we go on some interesting tangents on the economy in general, worker exploitation, and Afghanistan.

Joining me this episode are Zach, aka FeelFreeToArgue, and Brendon, aka Funkalunatic.

The Inconvenience of Truth Part 3

http://www.dncreform.com

http://www.dncreform.blogspot.com

Barack Obama, has touted his health care plan. He has repeatedly told American’s how much better off we will be under his healthcare plan. As with so many things about Barack Obama it is necessary to get into the nit and grit of it to find the real truth.

Barack Obama and his campaign are very good at hiding the truth beneath many layers of fluff. This ugly truth hurts every single senior citizen who has supplemental Medicare. That means it will hurt the majority of Americans because we will all be Senior Citizens someday. Barack Obama will still be a millionair so what will he care? His grandmother is a retired bank VICE PRESIDENT with a millionair grandson. What does it matter to him, what does it matter to his family?

This is part 3 of a series titled The Inconvenience of Truth. Part 3 focuses on ONE of the hidden secrets of Barack Obama’s health care plan and the genuine effects his plan will have on real middle class Americans. What the main stream media and Barack Obama along with his campaign are missing, besides all the hidden secrets, is that John McCain is actually stronger on the economy than Barack Obama. John McCain would actually have a much more positive economic effect for Americans. The main stream media refuses to look at the pork promise, veto any bill with ANY pork. That is money that would easily help pay down our deficit. Stop all the waste!!!

Unfortunately Barack Obama appears to be hiding the truth once again.

The Inconvenience of Truth is a series of TRUTHS, real, unpleasant, ugly TRUTHS that Americans are being denied. Strictly for the purpose of selling America not only a global president but a veto proof legislative majority. America if this happens hold on Barack Obama will be the either the next Hitler or Hugo Chavez or worse. Barack Obama is nothing but an ego maniac, inexperienced, Marxist, ladder climbing, lying, FRAUD, WITH HIS OWN TELEVISION STATION.

Part 4 of The Inconvenience of Truth COMING SOON!!!!

With Canadians enduring pain for months and years while they wait for surgery, traveling to the U.S. for treatment, entering “lotteries” to get a doctor, and getting “wait list insurance,” is Canada really a model for U.S. health reform?
