Remember when the highly articulate and bo-toxed face Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said, before the passage of the Health Care Bill in March of this year, “We have to pass this bill so that we can see what’s in it?” Not only did her statement reflect her blatant arrogance, but it opened up a window into how her mind works, or doesn’t, as the case may be.

Well now, we are beginning to find out what’s in Obama Care and what’s in it is terrifying! A foreign enemy couldn’t have hatched a more diabolical plot to bring America to its knees and subjugate its citizens to dictatorial power.

We were further enlightened about the contents of Obama Care by an executive order from his majesty, King Obama (sounds like an African dictator doesn’t it?). If you want to know just how much control they have in mind for you, we encourage you to read the contents of Executive Order 13544 here, taken directly from the Federal Register, signed into law on June 10, 2010. Queen Obama would be proud

Your government, under Obama Care, will establish the National Prevention, Health Promotion and Public Health Council. They are going to staff this Council with Obama’s entire cabinet and a whole bunch of other environmental and social justice bureaucrats. Their goal is to set about to destroy free choice in America, as we know it. They will own your body and your mind under this unconstitutional act. Federal policies will be established in the areas of national wellness (whatever that means), health promotion, reduction of tobacco use, sedentary behavior and poor nutrition. Government is going to thrust their face into every aspect of your life with a vengeance and then they are going to tax the Hell out of you for the privilege.

Oh, but there is more. Section 4 of the Executive order establishes an advisory group on Prevention, Health Promotion and Integrative Public Health. You won’t believe their mission. Here are a few examples: 1) worksite health promotion; 2) community services and community health centers; 3) preventive medicine; 4) health coaching; 5) public health education; 6) geriatrics; 7) rehabilitation medicine, etc. The opportunities for propaganda, hype, distortions and lies is endless. The cost will be horrendous and rise exponentially. These elites, who believe they know everything, are going to shove their vision of “national public health” down our throats, whether we like it or not ….. just like they shoved Obama care down our throats when the majority of the American people said not just NO, but Hell No!

This little four page Executive Order only paints a faint, but disturbing picture of what is in store for the people of the United States under Obama Care. There are still many more onerous provisions of the over 2,000 pages of the actual legislation, that have yet come to light. This law, yeah it’s law now, is an American nightmare, but a trial lawyer’s dream come true. It is a treasure chest of lawsuits between patients, doctors, hospitals and the government. Special interest groups will sue the government for provisions of the law they allege the government isn’t adhering to and we, the tax payers, will have to foot the bill. Make no mistake, the bill will be in the billions.

It’s a familiar pattern. Government passes a huge law, that no one knows what’s in it, and the lawyers rub their hands together for the giant fees they will earn, interpreting in the courts what the law really means. The government, never known for its accuracy or efficiency, will pay out massive awards for damages and attorney’s fees because they failed to comply with their own law. If you aren’t convinced, go back and review the history of the lawsuits under the Endangered Species Acts. Lawyers and environmental groups are getting obscenely rich off of the American taxpayer. They will get even wealthier under Obama care. Lawyers don’t have to chase ambulances any more. All they have to do is to follow the smell of the foul excrement that government leaves in its wide swath of constitutional destruction.

Obama, Pelosi and Reid, along with a majority of the Democrats in the House and Senate, tried to convince you that Obama Care was revenue neutral. They manipulated the numbers and lied through their teeth. They said the cost over 10 years would be under one trillion dollars. Poppy cock! It will be three times that amount, as it has been in all first estimates of government entitlement programs.

They said that Obama Care would bring down health care costs, all the while purposely ignoring the economics that screamed at anyone who would take the time to analyze the numbers. The fact is, if you add 30,000,000 people to the health care rolls with the same number of health care providers, health care costs will go up, quality of health care will go down, health care waiting times will increase and health care rationing is assured. The fact is, if the government mandates the insurance industry to add more services to their policies, but tells them they can’t raise premiums, insurance companies will go out of business and more and more health care costs will be piled onto the public treasury. If more insurance companies refuse to provide health care coverage, the burden will then fall on the federal government. As the burden rises on the government, a single-payer system will evolve quite quickly, which is exactly what Obama, Pelosi and Reid wanted in the first place. And they knew it. All they needed was a foot in the door and they got it with Obama care.

Wise, intelligent and savvy Americans realized these facts and said NO! to Obama care by the millions. Did that detour Obama, Pelosi and Reid? Hardly! They moved ahead with Obama care with stealth and corruption, like an out-of-control locomotive, aided and abetted by academia, left-wing bloggers, socialist billionaire George Soros and the ever-compliant Obama mouth piece ….. the electronic and print news media.

As more facts come to light about Obama care, the mood of the country against it, rises exponentially. 20 states have sued Obama care on constitutional grounds. They will probably win and the law will be struck down because there is no severability clause in the legislation. (the lawyers surely screwed up on that mistake) Several other states have moved to shield their citizens from Obama care. We predict that the November election will be a referendum on Obama care and the lagging economy. A shift to the right may be larger than anyone imagines.

But there is an over-riding lesson in this socialist movement to destroy America by Obama and 100 years of liberal/progressive Democrats. If the American people allow their president and their representatives to continue to take apart the foundation of our liberty with law, after law, after law, they will deserve what they get. In return for their apathy, disinterest and stupidity, they will be condemned by future generations that will have to pay the price for the existing generation’s in-action. The American people have laid dormant for over 100 and looked the other way while their government assumed powers never authorized by the limits on their power ….. the U. S. Constitution. Should they continue on this path, America, as a free country, will simply cease to exist.

Elections are one way to send a message to government that their actions are inexcusable and intolerable. But to effectively defend freedom, it will take more than elections every two years to “drain the swamp”. It is going to take the American people rising up, en masse, on the local level, the state level and the federal level to demand that their government return to the principles of freedom and stay within the limits of their constitutional powers, or face the indefinable horror of civil war, or revolution. The country is already arming itself for that eventuality. If the American people will re-engage in the process of government as never before, violence may still be avoided.

In the final analysis, Americans are not Europeans. Americans will fight back against government tyranny and they will fight back by whatever means, with an immutable pledge to their country and each other ….. their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor. As it was 234 years ago, freedom will have to be regained once again by the shedding of blood, instead of by the application and defense of the law of natural, God-given rights.
