		<description>&lt;p&gt;The “R” word.   I keep reading about Revolution in so many blogs.  Well, if you are not happy with Obama’s new health care program then you need to read that new, underground book just out.  It’s great!!  When you start seeing liberal &amp; coinservatives coming together against the president, then there will be revolution.  That is what happened in the American Revolution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That book tells what is going to happen next cause we have 3.5 years &amp; health care is just the start of forcing govt. tyranny on Americans, there is more to come. Read it &amp; see what is coming next!! I bought 2 for my friends &amp; it tells what you &amp; I need to do to prepare for the next issue that divides Americans instead of uniting Americans.&lt;br /&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;A letter from Your King&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My subjects,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just want to take a minute and get you up to speed on the progress I am making completely deconstructing your government and replacing it with mine. Change is good, well as long as you go with my changes. If you want to make your changes then I don’t really care for it much.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Turns out this being King (you can call me president for a while until you get accustomed to my new title) is not all that hard. We all know that it does not matter if what I am saying is true, all that matters is that I say it loud and often, eventually it will be come true. Accordingly I have found a new way to undermine that group of radical insurgents call the “Republicans.” Every thing I propose will be based on cost savings, this way they will not be able to make a stink about it, since we all know they don’t really care about your rights. They are just in it for the money. Hold on - I don’t really care about your rights and I am doing this for the money; am I a Republican? We will worry about that later. The Rathke boys are right I need to do a better job of staying on message. It is tough because I do love to hear myself talk.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enough about me (well, not really, we will add in a little more me later), back to the update. Here is my latest take over the world scheme. This whole missile defense shield is just low hanging fruit, ripe for me to pick the cost savings. Last time I checked I was not the King of Poland, Czechoslovakia, or the Ukraine. Why would I care what happens to them? They cannot vote for me, they can’t buy prepaid debit cards and make excessive campaign contributions; I can’t even cover them with my new Universal Health Care Cost explosion plan. Hold on a minute, If ACORN can get Mickey Mouse to vote for me they should not have any trouble getting these guys registered. Note to self: Have the Rathke boys Figure out a way to count votes from other countries in the next election (coronation).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just like the savings from Medicare the missile defense savings don’t really exist but I am going to be talking about it for the next few months and eventually your brain will be overpowered by the mind control rays from my friends and NBC and MSNBC. Don’t even think about putting on your foil lined hats, they have a way to penetrate that now. I will be announcing new initiatives designed to save costs because the more shells in the game the harder it is to find the mark. All I every really needed to know about politics I learned from a side show carny.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We will need all those savings when the savings from the health care reform and cap &amp; trade start to kick in. Wait a minute - that does not make sense. Well you don’t need to worry I am the president and here to help. Money is not really an issue anyway. You see we have this really neat printing press that just spits out money. We are not sure how much we need since the treasury is still learning how to use the accounting system, and that crazy Max Baucus keeps changing the deal on health care. He must actually think we will abide by the rules.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think we need to appoint a CZAR to deal with this. I bet the Russians will think that is cool, they have had lots of czars. See that is the key to effective communication and negotiation; you have to get inside your opponents mind and find out how he is trying to kill you then help him do it. Then you have him right where you want him – you start organizing some community action groups, get ACORN an office in Moscow so they can start pimpin’ out some hookers, we send the CEO of GE over there and start making a few bucks from the Russians, open up a McDonalds and a Wal-Mart, and they will have forgotten all about this whole missile thing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will not hear much about this on the news (except for that idiot Glenn Beck), I don’t let them talk about important things. I mostly keep them on target with the funerals of pop music crack heads and such. They had a BIG time with that Joe Wilson catching me in that lie about illegal aliens. That was a close one. It sure was lucky that I had my “Shiny Flashy Thing” to throw out and temporarily blind everyone while the Senate covered my rear. Then his sister comes out and tells everyone the WHOLE story and stabs me right in the back after I made her brother famous. You just cannot help some people!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Did you see that Nancy Pelosi interview where she almost cried? What a laugh riot that one is. I have told that plastic faced chic three times if she did not calm down with all these ultimatums I would throw her under the bus with the public option. Boy when she gets wrapped around the axle she just will not stop.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don’t have a lot of time left to chat, my new regulatory czar wants to bring me up to speed on how he thinks the stem cells we are going to use to cure everything may have the same rights as a human and may want to sue the government. I am not sure I can get my mind wrapped around this one, but he is convinced.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then I have to figure out how to replace Van Jones. You know I might have over shot on that one. Probably should have warmed everybody up with just a confessed socialist before going whole hog on the communist. I will call my guy Bill Ayers and get another name. Well live and learn.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember, send all your money to us, we will send you back enough to live on and a couple of protein waffles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your King&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plenty more where this came from WWYTA.com&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;What ever happened to that Tape of Obama stating “I will not sign a Bill that does not have a PUBLIC OPTION” ???????&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I E-Mail him once or twice every week  asking the same question . So far no response.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think Cujo359 expressed my view pretty well. Obama has been a disappointment in the areas of Civil Liberties, torture and accountability, the early work on cap and trade, health care reform, the stimulus package, the bank bailouts and reform of the financial system, and the maintenance of our activities in Iraq and Afghanistan. By now a lot of us distrust him a great deal. I’m still not sorry I supported him in preference to McCain, but he’s not the President we hoped for and need. I say this with a great deal of disappointment and plenty of anger and frustration too.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I am not sure the explanation is logical, rational, or complex. If you have read “Dreams from my Father” it becomes clear that his father had a brilliant mind, yet was never able to fulfill his bright promise. I recall Barack sitting by his father’s grave and crying. Perhaps the intent and ambition has always been to vindicate his father’s life, and therefore his own. Perhaps it has never been about anything but becoming President of the United States, after all this is probably the greatest success one can imagine. If you become the first black president of the United States, is it conceivable this in itself was the goal, and health care reform or for that matter any other political achievement is only a minor part of the dream.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Hey Jane, I’m having trouble getting folks “fired up” regarding the fight for the Public Option.  People are convinced that the POTUS is totally on board with the Public Option based on this info he’s sending out with the new DNC ad:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; “* Offers a public health insurance option to provide the uninsured and those who can’t find affordable coverage with a real choice.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(see POTUS’ complete plan below)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any ideas on how to get through to folks as this is too subtle for lots of people.  Thanks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The President’s Plan for Health Reform&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It will provide more security and stability to those who have health insurance.&lt;br /&gt;
It will provide insurance to those who don’t. And it will lower the cost of health care&lt;br /&gt;
for our families, our businesses, and our government.”&lt;br /&gt;
– PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If You Have Health Insurance,&lt;br /&gt;
the President’s Plan:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * Ends discrimination against people with pre-existing conditions.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Limits premium discrimination based on gender and age.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Prevents insurance companies from dropping coverage when people are sick and need it most.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Caps out-of-pocket expenses so people don’t go broke when they get sick.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Eliminates extra charges for preventive care like mammograms, flu shots and diabetes tests to improve health and save money.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Protects Medicare for seniors.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Eliminates the “donut-hole” gap in coverage for prescription drugs. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If You Don’t Have Insurance,&lt;br /&gt;
the President’s Plan:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * Creates a new insurance marketplace — the Exchange — that allows people without insurance and small businesses to compare plans and buy insurance at competitive prices.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Provides new tax credits to help people buy insurance.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Provides small businesses tax credits and affordable options for covering employees.&lt;br /&gt;
  * Offers a public health insurance option to provide the uninsured and those who can’t find affordable coverage with a real choice.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Immediately offers new, low-cost coverage through a national “high risk” pool to protect people with preexisting conditions from financial ruin until the new Exchange is created. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For All Americans,&lt;br /&gt;
the President’s Plan:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    * Won’t add a dime to the deficit and is paid for upfront.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Requires additional cuts if savings are not realized.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Implements a number of delivery system reforms that begin to rein in health care costs and align incentives for hospitals, physicians, and others to improve quality.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Creates an independent commission of doctors and medical experts to identify waste, fraud and abuse in the health care system.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Orders immediate medical malpractice reform projects that could help doctors focus on putting their patients first, not on practicing defensive medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
    * Requires large employers to cover their employees and individuals who can afford it to buy insurance so everyone shares in the responsibility of reform.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I’ve suggested more than once that he’s a con artist. I have, in fact, been doing that since early 2008. I was right. For being right on topics like that, your reward is to be treated like you took a dump in the punch bowl.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Take your snifter and swirl the liquid around, your nose to the edge of the glass.  Inhale the intoxicating bouquet.  Now hold the snifter up to the light to see the clarity of it’s contents.  Now put the snifter to your lips and let the liquid swirl about your mouth.  Do you notice the acrid, bitter quality to what at first glance seemed to be an elixir?  Now is the time to spit it out the rancid liquid and call for the sommelier demanding your money back!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Would it be politically incorrect to suggest that Obama is a political charlatan?  The Democrats would seem to have their fair share of kool-aid drinkers.  Am I fired up?  Fired up for immigrating but not for Obama’s half-assed feel good rhetoric.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;How many times have you heard give Obama time he is playing chess?&lt;br /&gt;
Well checkmate happened back in February when he met secretly with Pharma, Hospitals, and anyone else with deep deep pockets full of cash. Rahm takes his marching orders from Obama, not the other way around. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Once the final bill is out and ready to be voted on, if it contains all the goodies Baucus(i.e.:Health Industrial Complex) wants we better fight like hell to kill the bill or any shot at healthcare “reform” is history. Nothing short of a national march on D.C. will do. This is literally a fight for our lives. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do we the people have it in us for one more massive protest? Or have apathy and fear done us in.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
