OK, so while the Administration embarks on a series of campaign speeches to sell you on what they just shoved down your throat, apparently the collective we is not buying it. Here is an article from the reliable liberal Howard Fineman that shows just how much Americans across the board hate this bill:

Just how bad is it? By 55-29% Americans feel the quality of care they will receive will go down while by 50-21% they feel costs are going to go up. Can you feel the love? Before Congress acted on this “crisis”, 85% of all Americans had insurance and 85% of those that had insurance rated it either “very good” or “excellent”. Guess that needed to be screwed up.

I saw one analysis that suggested that as few as 7-10 Million people would actually benefit from this legislation. That means we just passed a law that costs $1T(with a T), affects 300 million people and benefits less than 5% of our citizens. Only our beloved Congress could take something as screwed up as the American Healthcare system, spend a year thinking about it, throw a trillion dollars at it and make it worse. Oh yeah, and the benefits don’t kick in until 2014. Ugh.

Your call on what to do about it. Just saying.

Change: Florida Doctor Tells Obama Supporters To Get Lost.

Jim Hoft at Gateway has the story.

He’s not refusing anyone because of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation or disability.

Political leanings aren’t covered under discrimination….. yet.

“If you voted for Obama … seek urologic care elsewhere. Changes to your healthcare begin right now, not in four years.”

Heh.

Git-r-done, Doc !

Kenny- I just posted the article

Take the poll and support the good doctor. 78% (over 5,000 votes) are in support of him.

Another reason to repeal this travesty

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

States can't complain.

They can’t complain so long as they have the option to opt out of the Medicare program.

The Principle of Repeal

Republicans, you know how this story ends. You’ve seen its miserable ending all over the world, from the ruins of Russia to the sick old men of Europe, dying from the fever of unsustainable entitlements and the chills of terminal demography… and too weak to protest as the shroud of fascism is drawn slowly over them. Repealing ObamaCare, and replacing it with real and meaningful health care reforms grounded in the fertile soil of the free market, should be the beginning of your commitment to guide your country away from this fate. To compromise with those who showed no interest in compromising their lust for power would be surrender. When you discover people trapped inside a burning car, you’re not doing them any favors by feeding change into the parking meter.

In 2012, will YOU become a “voting member” of the Republican Party in your precinct?

That's cause the American People are intelligent enough to understand that

it ain’t about healthcare. WE knew what was in the bill better than any member of Congress or barry did. It’s about power, and how to steal it from the people.

In Washington,they’re just politicians. The job requirements don’t say that you have to know how to do anything, you just have to be able to blow smoke.

And since you can exempt yourself from the harm you do, why wouldn’t you be shocked that the folks aren’t willing to take one for the team?
