Obama Fear Mongering: Federal Government 'Will Go Bankrupt' if Health Care Costs Are Not Reined In"

The left endlessly moaned and groaned over the Bush years about "fear mongering this and that" yet their Messiah gets on network television with MSM friendly Charles Gibson and lays out this lie and nary a peep from the same this morning.....damn hypocrites.

President Obama: Federal Government 'Will Go Bankrupt' if Health Care Costs Are Not Reined In

The World Newser: "ABC's Karen Travers reports from Washington:

President Obama told ABC News’ Charles Gibson in an interview that if Congress does not pass health care legislation that will bring down costs, the federal government “will go bankrupt.”

The president laid out a dire scenario of what will happen if his health care reform effort fails."“If we don't pass it, here's the guarantee….your premiums will go up, your employers are going to load up more costs on you,” he said. “Potentially they're going to drop your coverage, because they just can't afford an increase of 25 percent, 30 percent in terms of the costs of providing health care to employees each and every year. “

The president said that the costs of Medicare and Medicaid are on an “unsustainable” trajectory and if there is no action taken to bring them down, “the federal government will go bankrupt.”

“This actually provides us the best chance of starting to bend the cost curve on the government expenditures in Medicare and Medicaid,” Obama said.  continued

He spews all that obvious bs, and yet expects Americans to believe he's serious when his trial lawyer buddies aren't being included in the mix, when in fact anyone who follows news can tell you the only 2 reasons health costs are out of control are these:

(A) TORT REFORM.. out of control lawsuits which in turn mean out of control doctor insurance premiums, particularly for specialists.

(B) And number two which isn't far behind number one is the Illegal Aliens sucking up ALL OUR resources intended for born and bred English speaking and American custom practicing legal citizens.

That's it, nothing more needs to be addressed, and that's why American's have abandoned this false flag health care issue.  As it's nothing more than a tool to redistribute the wealth of middle America and our top earners in order to foot the bills with no strings attached for the often lazy, uneducated and poor, caused simply and for the most part these reasons only....

Blame their liberal run schools and their flat out indoctrination along with broken family units for the lack of education problem.

"ANGELINA JOLIE “HATES BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA”" ...Bare Naked Islam

While she hasn't yet flipped into the conservative camp along with her beloved pops Jon Voigt, she like me and many of you can't stand Obama because to her (who I really don't like) he's all about nothing but handouts when we're all for hand's up, not handouts....

Even this Hollywood liberal says she thinks, “Obama is a socialist in disguise… all smoke and mirrors.”

Looks like the liberal loon love affair with the imaginary "made for TV Obama Leadership Myth" is dying fast when die hards like Jolie and Pitt give the Messiah "the boot" or like they do in the Middle East, give him the "stinkin' sand foot" .....(since there's a recession on they, can't throw their shoes like they did to president Bush, who made such a protest possible of course..)

Bare Naked Islam's Weblog: "Angelina Jolie isn’t happy with the state of politics today … and that includes President Barack Obama." continued

Dick Morris Blunt on Obama: 'This Guy Is Totally Inept'... Video

He's pretty much nailed this one on the head or knocked that one out of the park, whatever metaphor one wishes to use to signify that the Obama team is so far in over their heads that this country is in imminent danger every second that passes with them at the controls.

Dick Cheney and Dick Morris AKA the 2 Dick's to the left have it right again on this one, that's why the left is apoplectic yet again when one throws Glenn Beck in the mix.....

Obama Power Grab....Bill would give president emergency control of Internet | Politics and Law

And the liberals ENDLESSLY complained that under president BUSH they were losing liberty and freedom!

Where the hell are all these whiners now as at every turn Obama consolidates executive power unlike any president before him even during wartime not to mention the circumvention of senatorial confirmation process using the appointment of unelected "Czars" with 38 and still counting.!!

At least the conservative community used the month of August to kick some town hall ass while they had the chance as now Obama looks to seize power of the internet giving him the power to remove personal computers from the worldwide network....The silence is deafening from the left/

CNET News: "Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.

They're not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency.

The new version would allow the president to 'declare a cybersecurity emergency' relating to 'non-governmental' computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for 'cybersecurity professionals,' and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license."

Representatives of other large Internet and telecommunications companies expressed concerns about the bill in a teleconference with Rockefeller's aides this week, but were not immediately available for interviews on Thursday.

A spokesman for Rockefeller also declined to comment on the record Thursday, saying that many people were unavailable because of the summer recess. A Senate source familiar with the bill compared the president's power to take control of portions of the Internet to what President Bush did when grounding all aircraft on Sept. 11, 2001. The source said that one primary concern was the electrical grid, and what would happen if it were attacked from a broadband connection.

When Rockefeller, the chairman of the Senate Commerce committee, and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) introduced the original bill in April, they claimed it was vital to protect national cybersecurity. "We must protect our critical infrastructure at all costs--from our water to our electricity, to banking, traffic lights and electronic health records," Rockefeller said.

The Rockefeller proposal plays out against a broader concern in Washington, D.C., about the government's role in cybersecurity. In May, President Obama acknowledged that the government is "not as prepared" as it should be to respond to disruptions and announced that a new cybersecurity coordinator position would be created inside the White House staff. Three months later, that post remains empty, one top cybersecurity aide has quit, and some wags have begun to wonder why a government that receives failing marks on cybersecurity should be trusted to instruct the private sector what to do.

Rockefeller's revised legislation seeks to reshuffle the way the federal government addresses the topic. It requires a "cybersecurity workforce plan" from every federal agency, a "dashboard" pilot project, measurements of hiring effectiveness, and the implementation of a "comprehensive national cybersecurity strategy" in six months--even though its mandatory legal review will take a year to complete.

The privacy implications of sweeping changes implemented before the legal review is finished worry Lee Tien, a senior staff attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco. "As soon as you're saying that the federal government is going to be exercising this kind of power over private networks, it's going to be a really big issue," he says.

Probably the most controversial language begins in Section 201, which permits the president to "direct the national response to the cyber threat" if necessary for "the national defense and security." The White House is supposed to engage in "periodic mapping" of private networks deemed to be critical, and those companies "shall share" requested information with the federal government. ("Cyber" is defined as anything having to do with the Internet, telecommunications, computers, or computer networks.)

"The language has changed but it doesn't contain any real additional limits," EFF's Tien says. "It simply switches the more direct and obvious language they had originally to the more ambiguous (version)...The designation of what is a critical infrastructure system or network as far as I can tell has no specific process. There's no provision for any administrative process or review. That's where the problems seem to start. And then you have the amorphous powers that go along with it."

Translation: If your company is deemed "critical," a new set of regulations kick in involving who you can hire, what information you must disclose, and when the government would exercise control over your computers or network.

The Internet Security Alliance's Clinton adds that his group is "supportive of increased federal involvement to enhance cyber security, but we believe that the wrong approach, as embodied in this bill as introduced, will be counterproductive both from an national economic and national secuity perspective."
