The Truth About the Health Care Bills by Michael Connelly, Ret.
 Constitutional Attorney

 

Well, I have done it!  I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill
3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009.  I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law.  I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional.  What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.

Washington, Nov 7 -
Buried within the contents of the 1,990 page bill—as well as a separate 13-page bill (H.R. 3961) that would increase the deficit by more than $200 billion—are details that will see a massive federal involvement in the health care of every American, including the following:

  Judge David Kithil on Obamacare

"I have reviewed selected sections of the bill and find it unbelievable that our Congress, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, could come up with a bill loaded with so many wrong-headed elements. We do need to reform the health insurance system in America in order to make coverage affordable and available to everyone. But, how many of us believe our federal government can manage a new program any better than the bankrupt Medicare program or the underfunded Social Security program? Both Republicans and Democrats are equally responsible for the financial mess of those two programs.

Nana Goes to Washington

“I felt I had to do something!  A small group of friends from Richland Springs, Texas called and asked Ken (husband, Ken Gray, of fifty-seven years) and  I to fly to Washington DC to participate in the 9 -12 March on the Capitol.  We were both quick to say, Lets do it!

Hello Patriots,

There is news about the September 3rd Tea Party Town Hall Meeting that you need to know.  This letter explains a meeting that was held Tuesday night, 8-25-09, with the District Director for Rep. Conaway.

 

Since the meeting, I have been told the real reason for the resistance to any of our offers to modify the event.  Over two weeks ago, when they made the decision not to come to Marble Falls, they made plans to speak to a group of medical workers in Brownwood at 5:30 PM.  Further, they will still be in Burnet at Seton Hospital at 2:00 PM on the 3rd.  None of this information was mentioned or discussed at the meeting on Tuesday.  Tuesday night was when we learned the Rep. Conaway would NOT be attending the Town Hall Meeting.  The offer was previously made to have a staffer attend in his place.

 The reasons given for Rep. Conaway not coming were self serving at best.  We were told, however, that it was to preserve the integrity of our event.  It was implied that we could not organize or control our own event and that they were doing us a favor by not coming.

 

 

As a result of this change, we have made another change.  We will now have an "Open Mike" time for all present. 

We will still have Sgt. Sam from 590KLBJ and at least 3 candidates to speak to us about their views.  I know that they will also be happy to listen to you.  We will have venders with shirts and other items and I know another Great Time will be had.

Please continue to make your plans to attend our Tea Party Town Hall Meeting that will now be a "Let the People Be Heard" Rally!

Date, time and location are the same. 

Please pass this information on to any and all of your contacts.

THE AMERICAN TRADITION - A POEM

I need more information,
Or at least some confirmation
That my fears are groundless
And my freedom is still boundless.

Many of you asked for addresses for the Representatives that voted YES on Cap and Trade.  Click here for  a spreadsheet of all the Representatives, their addresses, phone numbers and how they voted on Cap and Trade.

Feel free to contact the Reps that voted yes and/or send them a pink slip, especially those RINO's (Republicans in name only).  We suggest getting some pink paper for the printing. Printing the pink document on white paper could be time consuming and expensive.  If this is too difficult, just print black and white document on white paper. (they will get the idea).


We are also including a document that a fellow patriot sent us that we thought was very interesting.  It shows the impact of Cap and Trade on each congressional district.

  From the Desk of:
Steve Elliott, President, Grassfire.org Alliance:

On June 8, President Obama will officially launch the next great
push to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens living within
our borders!

On that day, Obama will host a closed-door meeting of congressional
leaders from both sides of the political aisle to discuss
immigration reform.

Of course you and I aren't invited...
