Debunking Democrat Lies
The Democrats must be really desperate as support for Obama’s health ‘scare’ plan slips drastically. Here are some of the outrageous lies (in italics) the DNC is sending around to their minions, which we will dispense with forthwith with the truth (in bold).
This is straight from the DNC:
There’s been a lot of media coverage about organized mobs intimidating lawmakers, disrupting town halls, and silencing real discussion about the need for real health insurance reform.
We are individuals who have shown up to express our opposition to government managed health care. We have not disrupted or silenced anyone. In fact, most of the time we are the MAJORITY, as we were today when we confronted Shaheen’s staffers, who didn’t have a clue about whether a bill even existed let alone what was in it!
The truth is, it’s a sham. These “grassroots protests” are being organized and largely paid for by Washington special interests and insurance companies who are desperate to block reform. They’re trying to use lies and fear to break the President and his agenda for change.
That’s an interesting but patently false statement that should have you hopping mad. We’re opposing things that the president and his health care supporters have said, all documented nicely on videos, or in speeches and books. Here in NH the groups you see on the right are participating in this movement and none are being paid by anyone, nor are we being directed by anyone — not the GOP, not lobbyists, not insurance companies, no one. The only thing that is a sham is the stuff the DNC makes up in desperation, because they know that 80% of the public is against government takeover of health care. Surely there may be lobbyists in DC, but we’ve not seen any of them here and they certainly aren’t sending their money to us.
Health insurance reform is about our lives, our jobs, and our families — we can’t let distortions and intimidation get in the way. We need to expose these outrageous tactics, and we’re counting on you to help. Can you read these “5 facts about the anti-reform mobs,” then pass them along to your friends and family?
This health care ‘crisis’ is not about health or care but about a power grab to bring us in line with Obama’s dream of the ‘world order’ he and his banker buddies ‘would like to see’. (Again, his words not ours!) And that includes control, rationing, and long waiting lists to see what will surely be a scarcity of doctors.
5 facts about the anti-reform mobs
1. These disruptions are being funded and organized by out-of-district special-interest groups and insurance companies who fear that health insurance reform could help Americans, but hurt their bottom line. A group run by the same folks who made the “Swiftboat” ads against John Kerry is compiling a list of congressional events in August to disrupt. An insurance company coalition has stationed employees in 30 states to track where local lawmakers hold town-hall meetings.
This is an absolute, outright, libelous smear. Not one of the hundreds of people in our Coalition are being paid by anyone. We do not know any of the above-mentioned people. Unless the DNC can prove this, they would be advised to retract their statement soon. WE alone are tracking events and then attending them, as we have a right to do. How they can make this stuff up out of thin air is amazing. On the other hand, their paid “volunteers” from the SEIU/ACORN/TIDES (purple shirts) are not in some cases even legal citizens! They get their millions from interests OUTSIDE the country!
2. People are scared because they are being fed frightening lies. These crowds are being riled up by anti-reform lies being spread by industry front groups that invent smears to tarnish the President’s plan and scare voters. But as the President has repeatedly said, health insurance reform will create more health care choices for the American people, not reduce them. If you like your insurance or your doctor, you can keep them, and there is no “government takeover” in any part of any plan supported by the President or Congress.
People are scared because they fully understand the agenda of this administration. They have listened to and read the words, and they know the background of these radical leftists who are now in charge. They see the people who have been appointed and what they believe in and stand for. It is NOT American and it IS scary. The administration is quickly trying to backpedal and hide things they have said that are out in the open, and fully documented. Unlike Congress, we HAVE read the bills!
3. Their actions are getting more extreme. Texas protesters brought signs displaying a tombstone for Rep. Lloyd Doggett and using the “SS” symbol to compare President Obama’s policies to Nazism. Maryland Rep. Frank Kratovil was hanged in effigy outside his district office. Rep. Tim Bishop of New York had to be escorted to his car by police after an angry few disrupted his town hall meeting — and more examples like this come in every day. And they have gone beyond just trying to derail the President’s health insurance reform plans, they are trying to “break” the President himself and ruin his Presidency.
If anyone is ruining his presidency it’s Obama himself. He has done this by virtue of his extreme attempts to takeover almost 50% of the private sector, including health care, and by surrounding himself with numerous other left-wing extremists that are anti-capitalist and anti-people. Citizens are scared and they well have a right to be. They did not ask to have America ‘transformed’ into Canada or the EU! The similarities of the polices of the leftists to national socialism are there…
4. Their goal is to disrupt and shut down legitimate conversation. Protesters have routinely shouted down representatives trying to engage in constructive dialogue with voters, and done everything they can to intimidate and silence regular people who just want more information. One attack group has even published a manual instructing protesters to “stand up and shout” and try to “rattle” lawmakers to prevent them from talking peacefully with their constituents.
This is utterly ridiculous. We just returned from a town hall where the Rep would not even appear and face her constituents because she knows there is 80% opposition to both government healthcare and the carbon tax. There has been nothing to disrupt because so far, there have been no answers. Amazingly, staffers for Shaheen denied there was even a bill being considered! Yes we protest loudly, but we have never done anything harmful to anyone or disruptive to ‘legitimate’ conversation because there has been none. Let’s see now, who is the one handing around scare tactics?
5. Republican leadership is irresponsibly cheering on the thuggish crowds. Republican House Minority Leader John Boehner issued a statement applauding and promoting a video of the disruptions and looking forward to “a long, hot August for Democrats in Congress.”
If only this were true. Unfortunately, Republican ‘leadership’ has not done one thing to encourage, support, or organize the people. We are WE THE PEOPLE. GET USED TO IT! Rep. Boehner was likely simply commenting on what he knew was going to be in store for Representatives who CONTINUE TO IGNORE THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE — more loud protests! What is really comical is they have an ad playing on radio that asks people to call the GOP and complain. We feel sorry for the GOP because they didn’t have a single part to play in this. It’s the people who are upset. Deal with that!
It’s time to expose this charade, before it gets more dangerous. Please send these facts to everyone you know. You can also post them on your website, blog, or Facebook page.
Now, more than ever, we need to stand strong together and defend the truth.
It’s time for the Democrats to shut up or put up. Prove there is anyone being paid, threatened or that there is any dialogue going on to disrupt. There isn’t because so far, Shaheen, Porter, and Hodes are TOO AFRAID to face their constituents.
The above lies should have you even more angry than you already are. You are being dismissed and discarded and uncounted. Please pass this article along and get on our mailing list so you can know when to be present to be part of the ‘dialogue’ should the opportunity to engage in one ever finally happen!
Let’s face it, the White House is losing the health care debate, otherwise the DNC would not have to whine and make up stories about paid opposition. They don’t seem to mind that they bus outsiders in for SEIU/ACORN and pay them, do they?
Here are the facts. Polls from National Public Radio, Wall Street Journal/NBC News, The Washington Post, Gallup, and Pew all show that the American people do not support President Barack Obama’s health care plan.
