The Native Americans by treaty have Health Care provided to them by the U.S. Government. This is by far the worst health care anywhere in the country. This health care is required under law. If the U.S. Government wants the American people to believe a government option health care system is a good idea, then why don't they show us how serious they are by first fixing the system provided for the Native Americans. I also think they should first make the Postal Service Profitable.
Then and only then, when 8 out of 10 Native Americans claim they are happy with the health care they receive and our Government Postal System actually pays for itself, I'll get behind a plan that is controlled by the Federal Government. How long do you think this will take? Have Hope! Change can happen:-)
To see how bad health care is for Native Americans see these stories.

Health Care Reform I'll get Behind
Barney Frank Blasts Women who asks Nazi Question?
You know back in the day, in 1940's Germany if someone spoke out about Adolf Hitler they were not treated very well. In fact some just disappeared and some were flat shot dead. In 1930's Germany it was a little different. Before you could be shot, they simply beat you up. Before that, they ridiculed you and discredited you. My point is it got progressively worse for doing nothing more than asking questions.
I'm not suggesting that Obama is Hitler and the Democrats are Nazi's
But when you look at what's going on, you can find many, MANY similarities on what the Nazi's did. When you find similarities you begin to wonder and ask questions. Apparently we have reached the level where you can be discredited and ridiculed, by our own leaders nonetheless. HHMmmm The Nazi's sent thugs to be loud and do their dirty work. Now our leaders are doing it themselves. I guess our government is different after all.
Check out this video of Barney Frank explaining how our Government health care would be different from the Nazi's Government Health care.
Kinda looks like ridicule and discrediting to me???

Mark Lloyd of the FCC
This guy is going to try and change the face of talk radio as we know it. If he has his way most of the small town and mid major city radio stations are going to to forced into top 40 music, sports and NPR. You can forget Rush, Beck, Hannity, Boortz or your favorite Conservative talk show. Unless of course they move to Satellite Radio and you can afford it or you can listen to their shows online. This could turn out to be the largest silencing of free speech in the history of America.
Mr Lloyd said this;
“The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) must be reformed along democratic lines and funded on a substantial level. Federal and regional broadcast operations and local stations should be funded at levels commensurate with or above those spending levels at which commercial operations are funded,” Lloyd wrote. “This funding should come from license fees charged to commercial broadcasters. Funding should not come from congressional appropriations. Sponsorship should be prohibited at all public broadcasters.”
In 2006 while serving the "Liberal Center for American Progress" Lloyd wrote a book entitled, (Prologue to a Farce: Communications and Democracy in America) This book presents the idea that private broadcasters (private business) should pay a licensing fee which equals their total operating costs. This would allow the the public broadcasting station to spend the same on their operations as the private companies. How is a private business going to be able to absorb that kind of cost. The simple answer is, "they won't"!
If you enjoy talk radio you need to follow this and make your voices heard.
Watch this video for an introduction to Mr. Lloyd. Please watch the whole video, as the first 3 minute actually sound pretty tame. He gets to the point in the final minute and half, where he sugar coats the agenda of control by way of tax revenues. Market equalization as he puts it.

AARP Supports Obama Health Reform Myths
The AARP has a pro propaganda website stating myths about Health Reform. Well the Myths aren't hard to challenge.
How can you actually state these myths and feel good about yourselves and service to retired people.
Myth #1 Health care reform is socialized medicine
Of course it's not being sold as Socialized medicine now. But what's going to happen when too many private firms go out of business. More and more people will be forced to go to the Government Plan. Our president has said himself that he favors a single payer system but that it will take 10 to 15 years to complete. He has only very recently said he is not in support of such a system, how convenient.
Myth # 2 Health care reform means rationed care.
Again they are not saying it will lead to rationing care. What do you think will happen when so many more people rush for care and the system gets overloaded? Providers will have NO CHOICE, but to decide who gets care and who does not. This will effect your members most of all. How dare you sell this idea as safe to your members.
Myth #3 Health care reform will hurt Medicare.
The plan is not final, so how can you say for sure. Several Senators have said that they would consider rolling Medicare into the Health Reform. Again nothing is final but it's just as misleading to tell your folks that it's not going to happen as it is for someone to say it's going to happen.
Myth # 4 Health care reform is too expensive We can't afford it.
The Country is broke now, we are living on credit, mostly from China. SO YOU FIGURE IT OUT!!!Does this mean we can't work to fix the system? Of course not. But we can't afford a new trillion dollar expense. Our money is already hardly worth the paper it's printed on.
Myth # 5 Myth: Health care reform means the government can make life-and-death decisions for you.
If the system gets overrun, and rationing occurs this is exactly what could happen. Once again, I'm not saying that this is how the plan is being written but what happens in 10 years 20 years if any of the worst case happens. The Government bureaucrats who run the system will by default be making life and death decisions.
I really wish you would pull your support of this plan. There are simply too many unknown factors at this time. NO ONE is saying we should do nothing. We need to work on this and get it right, not just get it done.

Grass Root or Astro Turf?
Man I was on top of this months ago when I first got involved with the Tea Parties. When I went to my first Tea Party I called a Sign Shop and asked how much it would cost to make me a sign. I scoffed at the quote I received and decided to buy poster board and Markers at the office supply store. I then asked myself how some many protester's on T.V. have pro printed signs, it must cost a fortune, oh well I thought I'm going to make my own.
Now, the Liberals in Washington are calling me and folks like myself Fake, Astro Turf. Wait just a minute. I went to the Town Hall meeting here in Danville, IL and a group got off a BUS a CHARTED BUS with Huge Signs Pre-Printed Signs. This was before the media and Nancy Pelosi started to accuse us of being a GOP MOB. And again I asked myself, what is going on here. Who is paying for this? Who paid for full size "First Student" Charted Bus to bring these organized protester's to a town hall meeting?
Now I see and hear that others have made the same connection and I'm kicking myself, why didn't I speak up when I first noticed this, oh well. The important thing is that people are noticing, they are noticing and talking about it. For years now, Liberal lapdogs have gone to protests with nice clean printed signs yelling and screaming about some thing or another waiting for the camera and then leaving and yet no one asked, who printed the signs for those folks. Grassroots, my ass. I have more Grass growing there then those fools have I GUARANTEE IT!
Cheers,
Mike

My report of Fishy Behavior to the White House
I realize that writing this email will likely put me on some government watch list but I'm going to send it anyway.
You asked for citizens to send reports of fishy behavior. I'd like to report the fishy behavior of our president and members of the majority party in Congress. It seems that they are lying about their intentions with Health Care reform. I don't need a fishy email or over exaggerated online story to see what's going on. I've been listening and watching. I've heard what President Obama said before he was President. I've heard what lead Democrats have said before they decided to publicly renounce the idea of a government take over. I think this video pretty wells covers it. You asked for fishy, well here it is.

Job Add
I wonder what Liberals would say about this Add for a job?
Looking for a semi-talented person who has trouble passing a basic competency test. Candidate must not have any advanced education or experience and should feel comfortable working in group environment where individually motivated persons are chided and threatened by the rest of the workforce. Raises will be decided by seniority alone, your hard work is not necessary. White European Americans and African Americans preferred. Americans who do not show any loyalty to another country by adding it before American, need not apply. Special Consideration will be given to illegal immigrants if they register to vote in the next election. Please do not bother to show up wearing nice clean professional clothing as this will be considered as not keeping it real.
I'm not saying, I'm just saying:-)
Cheers,
Mike
