Obama Lie Exposed, He’s Plotting to Change Senate Rules to Ram Through Plan

August 14, 2009

Obama and the Democrats know they no longer have the 60 votes to pass the radical health plan in the Senate.

We are told they are working behind the scenes to change long-standing Senate rules so that they can pass their health plan with just 50 votes!

This is again a desperate measure and an attempt to subvert our democratic and constitutional system.

I can assure you the League of American Voters is working day and night to stop Obama’s plan. We are also preparing for contingencies. When Congress returns after Labor Day, we must line up all our forces for the final battle.

I realize many people are on vacation or feel confident we can defeat Obama’s plan. Please don’t fall victim to overconfidence. It is critically important that you join with the League of American Voters today and help us defeat Obama.

Thank you.

Support Trey Grayson

Kentucky is about to lose a conservative Republican in the next election as Jim Bunning decides to retire. Trey Grayson is his replacement who is currently in that state’s government. Support him if you can. We need as many conservatives as we can get. – FedUpEditor

Friends,

Senator Jim Bunning has decided against seeking re-election next fall. He served us well in Kentucky, always standing on principle and never failing to stand up for taxpayers against the big spenders in Washington.

I’m very proud of all that Senator Bunning has done for our Commonwealth. I know that his departure leaves a void of true conservatives in Washington, and it presents a real challenge for you and me.

Today I hope you will join me in my campaign by making a contribution to ensure that this Senate seat remains in conservative hands.  

Very soon I will formally announce my candidacy for U.S. Senate, and I will be a true conservative like Senator Bunning and Senator McConnell. In fact, I recently took a stand against the confirmation of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to a lifetime appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Washington liberals continue to advocate an explosion in federal spending and government control of all aspects of our lives, including our health care. Since President Obama took office America has run up $1.3 trillion in debt – a figure as staggering as it is unsustainable.

I am committed to fighting against an agenda that cripples our economy and puts the health care you currently enjoy at risk. You can count on me to stand up for a health care plan that you can choose and that you can afford, and when we’re finished, a government you can afford too.

Kentucky is a top target for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee led by notable liberals like Harry Reid, Christopher Dodd and Chuck Schumer . They would like nothing more than to add to their 60-seat, filibuster-proof majority by taking over this seat that is currently held by a conservative Republican.

As you may recall, liberal leaders in Washington spent millions in 2008 trying to defeat Senator Mitch McConnell. Friends like you helped return Senator McConnell to the Senate where he is leading the charge against unprecedented levels of government spending and exploding deficits.

I am reaching out to you today for your help.

It is vitally important that we keep Kentucky’s Senate seat in conservative hands. We need a responsible, common sense conservative in Washington who can fight against this liberal onslaught that we’re experiencing and who can get things done for Kentucky.

As your Secretary of State for the last six years I have been able to:

- Operate my office on a 10% smaller budget despite increased responsibilities
- Quickly react to fight voter fraud and corruption in elections
- Reduce the amount of time and paperwork required to start a business
- Make my office more open and accessible to citizens
- Voluntarily become the first state agency to post expenditures online so taxpayers can see how their money is spent

I will oppose the liberals’ agenda of higher taxes and more government spending. I will fight against the “cap-and-trade” policy that will mean higher utility rates for every Kentuckian. Instead, I believe we should cap government spending and trade the liberal leadership in Washington for common sense conservatives who will stand up for our Kentucky values.

Please join my team today to help me kick-off my campaign for U.S. Senate.

Your contribution will help me activate our already extensive network of grassroots activists by allowing us to print campaign materials and run advertisements on television and radio.

With your help I can begin my campaign today to turn back the liberal agenda in Washington. Simply put, we must do all we can right now to stop the out-of-control government spending and increased debt that will burden our children and grandchildren for generations to come.

Please make a contribution to my campaign today.

Thank you for your encouragement and support.

Sincerely,

Trey

Support U.S. Offshore Oil & Gas Development!

August 7, 2009

Some of you may remember that we started this website when gas prices hit all time highs. Energy was our priority. Now with government health care being proposed, that is about all we have been discussing. Here is an article from Consumer Energy Alliance. – FedUpEditor

A significant domestic supply of energy can be safely and efficiently found right here off of America’s shores. The federal government currently administers the considerable energy resources contained in our offshore waters and wants to hear from you about offshore oil & gas and alternative energy development.

Opposition to offshore energy development is mounting. We need you to let Washington know you support reasonable access to America’s offshore energy resources.

AARP officials walk out of meeting, refuse questions concerning ObamaCare from angry seniors

August 7, 2009

If they don’t represent the people they are getting money from to protect their interests, who do they represent? – FedUpEditor

 Senior citizens who went to a meeting sponsored by AARP were left to themselves after the AARP hostess walked out. The seniors were trying to get answers concerning ObamaCare and why AARP would support a government controlled health system that many believe would lead to euthanasia and rationing of health care. Watch the video.

Why would AARP, the nation’s largest seniors group, supposedly working for the elderly, support an ObamaCare bill? Here is what Dick Morris, former advisor to President Clinton, said: “The interest groups that usually speak up for the elderly, particularly AARP, are in Obama’s pocket, hoping to profit from his program by becoming one of its vendors. Just as they backed Bush’s prescription drug plan because they anticipated profiting from it, so they are now helping Obama gut the medical care of their constituents.”

Like the National Education Association, AARP has been taken over by liberals. With millions of members, AARP is using its clout to push ObamaCare on the elderly, even if it includes euthanasia. AARP supported homosexual marriage by opposing Prop 8 in California.

Take The Health Care Survey

July 30, 2009

You do not need to contribute to take the survey. – FedUpEditor

We want to know and Congress needs to know: Does the thought of Obama’s health care plan make you feel sick?
 
ACU is conducting a survey.  We want YOUR input.
 
We plan to share your responses with Members of Congress who are concerned with what conservatives think about this health care plan.
 
When you send your survey we want to give you a chance to call your lawmakers directly.  We will have instructions for you when you send in your survey.
 
FILL OUT THE ACU SURVEY HERE AND NOW.  TELL CONGRESS WHETHER THE THOUGHT OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLANS MAKES YOU FEEL SICK.
 
In the survey we also want to know what part of the proposal concerns you the most. 

There is plenty in the plans being discussed to worry all Americans.

 
SOME PROVISIONS OF THE SO-CALLED “HEALTH CARE REFORM” OBAMA – PELOSI PLAN WHICH SHOULD CAUSE CONCERN:
 
COST:  Even though the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is now being led by a Democrat, the CBO has said that Obama is wrong and his plan won’t lower costs.  The CBO says it will bloat deficits and leave our nation further in debt.  The CBO is sticking by these numbers despite an unprecedented push by Obama, Pelosi and their comrads to get them to say otherwise. 

Current costs are estimated at $1 trillion … or so.  Why “or so?”  Because the government never seems to make accurate or clear predictions. 

 
Case in point:  When a government hospital subsidy was created in 1987 for Medicaid, it was supposed to cost $100 million a year.  But by 1992, just five years later, the costs had already risen to $11 billion.  That cost 5 years later was not the estimated $100 million but the equivalent of $11,000 million.  Think about CBO’s $1 trillion estimate for Obama-Pelosi care and do the math…
 
FILL OUT THE ACU SURVEY HERE AND NOW.  TELL CONGRESS WHETHER THE THOUGHT OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLANS MAKES YOU FEEL SICK.
 
BUREAUCRATS MAKING HEALTH CARE DECISIONS:  Several provisions are being discussed which would involve bureaucrats in Washington making decisions about citizens’ health care.  Many believe these decisions would not only affect government plans, but private plans directly or indirectly in the long run. 
 
Do you want a doctor and patient making decisions, or a group of bureaucrats sitting in cement buildings in Washington deciding whether the doctor can even offer you certain tests, surgeries or services?
 
One idea in discussion is to allow an un-elected advisory board known as “MedPAC” to make changes in Medicare and other parts of the health system.  The idea from liberal Democrats is that they could quietly make changes in the healthcare system to “lower costs” – many believe this would result in rationed care and would make it impossible for a Doctor to even offer a patient some services.
 
FILL OUT THE ACU SURVEY HERE AND NOW.  TELL CONGRESS WHETHER THE THOUGHT OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLANS MAKES YOU FEEL SICK.
 
A PUSH TOWARDS ALL-OUT GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE:  The President says he only wants a government-run health “option.”  Options always sound good right? 
 
But as Congressman and Dr. Phil Roe said right on our ACU YouTube video site (www.youtube.com/ACUConservativeUSA) – this option will just lead to putting all other health insurance options out of business and leave our nation with government-run health care.
 
Liberal groups who for years have pushed for socialized medicine are supporting this plan.  Ask yourself why…
 
FILL OUT THE ACU SURVEY HERE AND NOW.  TELL CONGRESS WHETHER THE THOUGHT OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLANS MAKES YOU FEEL SICK.
 
JOB KILLING PROVISIONS:  Two ideas that are being floated with the plan would affect our economy and cause job losses. 
 
One is to tax the so-called “wealthy” to pay for it.  Set aside the class warfare the Democrats are waging and the fact that some of these wealthy came from nothing.  They succeeded only with hard work and belief in the American dream.  Instead, just look to the fact that many of these people employ a very large number of Americans.  Thousands upon thousands could lose their jobs as the wealthy cut back on business and personal spending. 
 
We all know that many times when the Democrats say they are taxing the “wealthy” those taxes over time make their way right down to the middle class.
 
Another provision being discussed is to levy a government fine on small businesses who do not offer coverage or the right type of health coverage based on what Obama wants.  Some proposals include a $750 per employee fine against these small businesses.  Where will that money come from?  Price increases and job losses are two likely scenarios…
 
FILL OUT THE ACU SURVEY HERE AND NOW.  TELL CONGRESS WHETHER THE THOUGHT OF OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE PLANS MAKES YOU FEEL SICK.
 
The liberal Democrats and their more moderate members are fighting among themselves.  They, and our conservative members on Capitol Hill, are looking for answers on where Americans stand on these issues.
 
They claim they are negotiating…softening the blows on business and making the plan less costly.   We have heard that before.
 
We must let them know where you stand. 
 
Please fill out the survey here and now.  
 
Sincerely,
  dw

Send Blast Faxes

July 29, 2009

  Nancy Pelosi’s House Democrats, along with a handful of Republicans-in-Name-Only, are holding secret closed-door meetings in a last ditch effort to ram ObamaCare down the throats of the American people before they leave town.

     You read that right… before they leave town for their summer vacation.

     And what about the news reports that say ObamaCare is stalled… that there will be no legislation coming out of Congress in the foreseeable future? You really didn’t believe that the politicians in Washington had given up… did you?

     According to a late-breaking news report released by the Associated Press on Tuesday:

“A bipartisan group of senators is closing in on a health care compromise… as lawmakers on both sides of the Capitol labor to deliver sweeping health legislation to President Barack Obama.”

     And, according to an article published on The Washington Examiner’s website on Tuesday:

“House Speaker Nancy Pelosi still claims that she has the votes to approve the new legislation and that a floor vote could come by Friday….”

     In addition, The New York Times claims House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer is looking at keeping the House in session to pass whatever health care bill comes down the pike:

“The House Democratic leader… said it was conceivable the House might stay in session a few days longer and vote on Aug. 3 or 4.”

     Anthony G. Martin, in an article published by The Washington Examiner, gives perhaps the best description on what is going on right now:

“It doesn’t take an enormous amount of digging to see what’s going on here. The self-styled ‘rulers’ who now run Washington seem intent on ramming through legislation that no one has read and that even Barack Obama had great difficulty explaining… The ultra-liberal Democratic leadership, along with the ‘blue dog Dems’ and the RINOS (Republicans in Name Only’) would like nothing better than to foist upon an unsuspecting public a multi-trillion-dollar healthcare fiasco, complete with rationing, just so they can fulfill some sort of ideological obligation in their demented, brainwashed minds that ‘government must take care of ALL of the needs of the people.”

     It’s as if we’re fighting the Amnesty battle all over again. The American people, in resounding numbers, are saying “no” to ObamaCare and politicians in Washington are, for some inane reason, trying to sneak it past us anyway.

     And that’s not acceptable.

     Let’s tell these politicians in Washington that when it comes to ObamaCare, the American people don’t want any so-called “compromises” made behind closed doors in the dark of night.

     Let’s make sure they get the message this time around… “no” means “no.”


Use the hyperlink below to send your urgent and personalized Blast Faxes to Barack Obama and each and every one of the leaders of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives – or alternatively to President Obama and all 535 Members of Congress.

Tell them that when the American people say “no” to ObamaCare, the American people mean “no.” Tell them it does not mean, “let’s try sneak it through when the American people aren’t looking.”

Tell them that ObamaCare is deceitful and treacherous, a recipe for rationing and reduced quality of care. Tell them that the American people want choice when it comes to health care, not government bureaucrats making decisions for people and their families.

PUT BLUE DOG DEMOCRATS ON NOTICE!

July 29, 2009

Newsmax reports late today that Blue Dog Mike Ross of Arkansas announced they had made a deal to pass the health care reform legislation! We do not know what it in it, and what if it goes to reconciliation and sneaky liberal Democrats put everything back in before it goes for a signature??? Call him now and voice your displeasure. Mike Ross (870) 869-3071, 419 E Highway 63, Imboden, AR 72434; (479) 969-6215, 129 W Priddy St, Magazine, AR 72943; and (870) 542-7688, Foreman, AR 71836. They always say they do not take calls from anyone other than their constituents, but they are passing legislation that affects us, so he owes us an explanation! – FedUpEditor

The White House and Blue Dog Democrats may not have a deal over healthcare reform after all.

Rep. Mike Ross of Arkansas, a negotiator for the Blue Dogs, announced Wednesday afternoon that an agreement had been reached following marathon negotiations with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, and Committee chairman Rep. Henry A. Waxman, D-Calif.

When informed of the apparent agreement while traveling in North Carolina, President Obama said, “I’m especially grateful that so many members, including some Blue Dogs on the Energy and Commerce Committee, are working so hard to find common ground.”

A House Energy and Commerce Committee session to begin marking up a final version of the bill was abruptly cancelled late Wednesday afternoon, however.

The press already had begun to gather in the hearing room for the 4 p.m. meeting, when an announcement was made on the House floor that it would be postponed until Thursday morning.

“Rumors are swirling on the Hill that some in Congress got ahead of themselves in announcing a deal that may not be all the way there,” Claude Chafin, spokesman for Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., tells Newsmax.

Rep. Blackburn is a member of the Committee that has suddenly become Ground Zero for Democratic wrangling over the bill’s specifics.

Members of the conservative Blue Dog Democrat Coalition on the committee have balked at the bill’s $1 trillion-plus price tag, and have also expressed concern about social issues such as the public financing of abortion.

“We’ll see what deal there is, and what it looks like, tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock,” Chafin tells Newsmax, adding, “Or 11 o’clock … or 12 o’clock.”

The compromise that some Blue Dogs appear ready to accept would cut the overall cost of reform by $100 billion. It would also exempt employers with payrolls of less than $500,000 from providing insurance to their employees, and would promise consumers that they would not be required to switch to the public-option plan that would be subsidized by the government.
