UPDATE: The Nightmare That Is The Senate Finance Committee Healthcare Proposal – RINOCare Gone Wild. This is an excellent example of what Pat writes in the letter below. Pay attention to what the Senate is doing right under our noses. It is important to understand what the Senate Finance Committee healthcare proposal means to you. Hint: it’s not good.

I only wish I had written this. The visceral distrust of the Republican Party and its seeming inability to pull itself together and align itself with the will of the country really comes through in this letter. The Bush years lead to disillusionment with Republicans, which led to an apathetic electorate and the subsequent election of Obama. This after the poor choice of Senator “you have nothing to fear from an Obama administration” McCain as the Republican nominee, his lackluster performance and absence of principled small-government policies during the Presidential campaign.

But every cloud has a silver lining, and the election of Obama and the enactment of his far-left agenda has galvanized the population – independents, conservatives, and even some liberals – to oppose Barack the Messiah at every turn, so much so that the sheen dulled on the shiny new car and no amount of waxing will bring it back.

Apathy morphing into strong interest combined with action and engagement is a good recipe for the country – unless you’re a politician. Because of the seismic shift in a now-awakened electorate, heads will roll come next November. However, some Republican’s are like children and must be constantly reminded and reprimanded until they get the point. That is preciously what this letter does (note this letter was written before the Van Jones resignation):

OPEN LETTER TO MICHAEL STEELE AND THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE

On the first page of your website you have a section that says something to the effect, “tell me what you think.” OK, here it is. How much longer do “we the people” have to sit out here and wait for you to do something? Where is your voice? Where is your spine? Why does a talk show host/entertainer have to do your job? Where is the leadership of the Republican Party in Congress?

If the United States of America survives past 2009 it will certainly not be because the RNC and the congressional leadership stood firm and held news conferences and produced YouTube videos, to keep us, the citizenry informed. What a sad state of affairs when the media controls what we get to hear from you, the elected officials. Are you fearful of what they will call you? Have you no power? Do they own you?

The grassroots have been fighting since April to voice our opposition to what is happening in our government. We have held tea parties, town halls, rants in public places, we have all become proficient on Facebook, twitter, blogs, etc. We stay up most nights trying to Google information, watch Glenn Beck, read and re-read our constitution. We have been like blind people trying to put a puzzle together and now that we are succeeding in seeing what is being done to us, it’s a frightening thing. I can only speak for myself but there have been times in the last six months that I have to pinch myself and ask if I am still in my country.

We have spent time calling, writing, emailing, petitioning our elected officials and we are called un-American, terrorists, mobs, dangerous, right-wing extremists, kooks, etc. I don’t hear national voices calling the main stream media to task for attacking us. I have only heard of one congressman who is going to the Library of Congress before the session begins to look up information on “redressing of grievances”. Why hasn’t the entire Republican congress called a meeting to ask the same thing?

We begged the Republicans to stop cap and trade and they did not. I can’t believe that any thinking person would even be talking about trying to pass something as heinous as HR 3200. When I hear a Republican, especially McCain talk about tweaking the bill and then passing it, I want to scream! What could these people be thinking. The only thing that could help this bill is for it to be flushed!

Do you watch television? Do you watch Fox News? Do you watch Glenn Beck? I’m appalled that there has not been a movement from the Republican Party to impeach this man who is living in our White House. Don’t even try to tell me that we can’t do that. We must impeach him. Are you aware that Van Jones, the green job czar, whose organization, the Apollo Alliance wrote the stimulus bill and is receiving tax dollars to dismantle our country? Van Jones is a self-avowed communist! Those are his words. This man is an advisor to the President? How can that happen? How can any elected official stand by and let this happen? Who is representing us?

What about Cass Sunstein? This man is a fascist nut. Yes, I did say fascist. I’m sick of not being able to speak truths because we’re fearful of not being politically correct. Guess what? We are out of the p.c. closet. Sunstein is a proponent of the ‘nudge’ philosophy – Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness. Our decisions, our health, our wealth and our happiness. No thank you. This man thinks animals should have the right to take people to court??? This is not a fairy tale.

Now we hear that our internet may be taken from us through legislation. SB 773. Will this be carried out through martial law? I have not heard one Republican official say that they are not going to allow this to happen.

Are all the conspiracy theorists correct when they say that the Republicans are just as instrumental in destroying our country as the liberal fascist arm of the Democratic Party are?

The President is destroying the United States of America. If a Russian Professor can see it, and write articles about it, why can’t you? What do we need to do to start the impeachment process? I could list numerous other things that he has done that I believe are in direct opposition to our constitution but I don’t have the time or the space. You could contact Glen Beck, he will fill you in.

I am going to put this letter on Facebook, Twitter, blogs; I’m going to email it to every address I can get my hands on. I will send it as a press release to every media outlet I can think of and who knows, maybe one or two will print it. I’m going to send it to talk shows and I’m also going to email it to you. I certainly hope I receive an answer and if I do, I will also send that out to all the above mentioned sites.

Thank you for your time and I pray that God will Bless America.

Sincerely,
Pat Wright
Sealy, Texas

God bless you Pat Wright.

The Big-Business/Big-Government Conspiracy on Healthcare:

Our thanks to Dr. David McKalip for catching this website. It is the smoking gun of the big-business/big-government conspiracy taking place to shove fascist healthcare down the throats of the American public under the guise of a “bipartisan compromise”—RHINOCare (which we have warned about repeatedly on our website) [note to readers: I highly recommend reading these posts on referenced website].

The website he alerts us to (see below) is a veritable rogues’ gallery of the players who have been in the White House basement cooking up an extension of Medicare Part D (a Republican invention) to the entire healthcare system.

Dr. McKalip writes:

“Here is http://factsaboutreform.org/about.html

“They are running ads on CNN (it is hard to, but I am watching them) with eight wonderful benefits of insurance reform.

“Of course they don’t mention other things like rationing, higher costs, mandates, higher taxes, mandated unneeded benefits, forgoing food for health insurance and unfunded liabilities of subsidies as well as the failures in Mass.

“Now is the time for ads directed at the true target – insurance mandates.

In other news and opinion:

Sigh. Will this unconstitutional shadow government building never end? Mr. Obama shows his true colors by choosing to ignore the Senates advise and consent roll in the Constitution, and they aren’t red, white, and blue. Note that I did not call him President. He has to earn that title from me and until he drops his Marxist worship he won’t hear it from me. Comrade Obama? Sounds more accurate: Out: Commie Truther green jobs czar. In: Union hack “manufacturing” czar. Anybody home in the Senate, or is it just too much work to do your friggin’ jobs?
