Allow me to be as clear as possible right here at the beginning of this commentary. I don't like ObamaCare at all, not in the slightest, in any way -- shape or form. Period! Got it?
ObamaCare is a Marxist/socialist/statist policy and I hate it.
Vladimir Lenin, himself, said: "Socialized Medicine is the Keystone to the Arch of the Socialist State."
Ole Vlad knew exactly what he was talking about. ObamaCare warms the cockles of the hearts of all the Marxists in the Democratic Party and believe me, there are a host of them!
There is NOTHING good about ObamaCare. It is a cancerous assault on the freedom of Americans and it needs to be gone and, frankly, all those who supported it and voted it through the Congress need to be gone along with it.
Here in North Carolina, we're doing our dead level best to rid ourselves of every Democrat who supported ObamaCare and/or Obama. At the moment, our chances for success look very promising.
" ObamaCare is a curse! Take your lives and your homes back. Do it now, before it is too late. Take action now. Save yourselves, and your loved ones. Get unstuck, be informed, get peace of mind, stop the depression and anxiety, take charge of your lives for once. Do it now!
Look. ObamaCare has not even begun to affect your life yet. The law is so large, so intrusive in your private life that you are just not going to believe the depth of government meddling that attends ObamaCare. It has yet begun -- but it's coming, I assure you.
And now the GOP is backing away from a total repeal of ObamaCare. Especially the establishment Republicans. Now their battle cry is "Repeal and Replace!"
WHAT? Repeal and Replace? Are they completely nuts!?
Recently, Rush Limbaugh said: "The Republican establishment obviously has a campaign game plan involving ObamaCare, and it does not include repealing it, folks. The Republican establishment apparently doesn't want to campaign on repealing it. They want to campaign on fixing it."
The establishment Republicans are trying their dead level best to turn the November election over to the Democrats. I have concluded that is what all the "fix" ObamaCare Bovine Scatology coming from the GOP is all about. I have come to believe the establishment Republicans do not want to win in November.
Two things: If the GOP wins in November that will mean they'll have to get off their collective derrieres and actually DO something. I think they are loathe to do that.
And two: The democrats are just waiting for a chance to replace ObamaCare with another of their Marxocratic socialized medicine schemes. It's called a single payer plan.
To see just how bad a single payer type of healthcare system really is, just check out the British system. It's bad, folks, REALLY bad. There were published report a few months ago of British citizens having to resort to extracting their own teeth with pliers due to such long waits for dental care.
Look. The Democrats are counting on Republicans wimping out. By offering to "fix" ObamaCare, or repeal and replace ObamaCare, the GOP is playing right into the Democrats' hands.
See, the Democrats believe that they will not be beaten so severely about the head and shoulders over their support of ObamaCare IF they offer to "fix" it. That's what they are doing. That's the ongoing campaign. And the Republicans are giving them aid and comfort every time they mention their desire to fix ObamaCare, too. The GOP's actions here are what I like to call: DUMB!
I cannot see that there is any argument against my prognostication that the Republican Party is headed for extinction. Just observe their senseless machinations -- not just on ObamaCare but on so much else. Is the GOP leadership brain dead?
Maybe after another defeat at the polls in November the real conservative republicans will screw up enough courage to leave the GOP and begin another completely separate conservative party that will have as its goal saving America and returning her to the constitutional representative republic the Founding Fathers designed.
I am quickly coming to believe it is the only chance America has of survival.
