A Message to Senators Landrieu and Reid form the Louisiana Tea Partiers
Written By : Warner Todd Huston

This past Saturday, hundreds of people gathered in the pouring rain in New Orleans, Louisiana, to tell Senator Harry Reid (D, Nev.) and Senator Mary Landrieu (D, Loius.). As you may know, Senator Reid was supposed to attend a fundraiser in New Orleans, but canceled his plans to attend when he started taking heat for “asking Republicans for the weekend off.” [The Hill Blog also covered this]

Once again we see Harry Reid’s hypocrisy. but the tea party folks won’t let him forget it! News is Reid is having trouble with his Nevada reelection bid, too. Wouldn’t it be grand if another Senate Majority Leader was Daschled!

    Even without a “Government Option” Obamacre is still Nationalization!
    Posted by RR on Tuesday, September 08, 2009 7:05:54 PM
    This is a very dangerous period because Nationalization will still occur even without an overt government run insurance plan like this “public option” provision everyone keeps fixating on! Here are the essential elements of the health care Nationalization in what might now be called Obamacare 2.0 or Obamacare lite after the so-called “public option“ is dropped:

    (a) Federal Government Regulatory power over all Health Insurance companies/Comparative Effectiveness Boards aka HEALTH EXCHANGE CZAR/DEATH PANELS

    (b) Employer/Individual Mandates to force everyone to buy a government specified Health Insurance plan AKA UNIVERSAL COVERAGE

    (c) Massive Government Subsidies to middle class citizens to purchase the mandates insurance AKA MEDICAL WELFARE FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS

    With the Federal Government setting the rules, forcing everyone to participate, and is paying the bills for most of the middle class through subsidies how is this anything other than Nationalization?

    Basically, the Federal government will be controlling the Health Insurance industry just like it controls the Banks and Auto Companies who received bailout money. While it will still technically be true that health insurance companies are “private” companies, they will be only in the same sense that GM, CITIGROUP, etc are still “private” companies. Since the Federal government has provided most of the funding and dictated all the terms of business, politicians and technocrats will really be calling the shots. Essentially, all health insurance companies in the country will be quasi-governmental agencies that simply get to stay in business to administer the National Health insurance program on a small for-profit basis.

    So please don’t be confused into thinking that much in the way of any meaningful substance has changed once the “public” option as been dropped.

    What a bunch of ignorant jackasses.

    I agree. Senators Landrieu and Reid, and the rest of the Democrats, are indeed a bunch of ignorant jackasses.
