June 27, 2009 President Barack Hussein Obama1600 Pennsylvania Ave NWWashington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President,
Please say it aint so! This news story is a picture of corruption, deceit and failure to protect the average citizen from the Federal Government. "With health care nationalization apparently headed for the morgue in the House and Senate, the latest scheme to revive it is to give union health plans a special tax break. This will create a Frankenstein.
Spending a trillion dollars as a down payment for a government takeover of health care is a dream of many Democrats. The current plan in Congress would create a government insurance plan that would drive out the private ones. The problem, though, is the cost. Even moderate Democrats are having second thoughts about that, as well as all the quality problems associated with socialized medicine. Even so, health care nationalization's biggest boosters are cooking up bad new plans
Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., and Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., both would like to slap a tax on private health plans to pay for a new government one. But they've carved out one very big exception: unions and their gold-plated benefit packages. This effectively gives Big Labor an advantage in the market and forces nonunion workers to subsidize unions for their share of this bad idea.The logic behind this tax giveaway is that union health plans, which are lavish, would be subject to higher taxes than those of workers with regular private sector health care plans.According to news reports, if unions get a special tax break for themselves on health care taxes, they'll gladly muscle "their" Congress members into supporting a "public option" health care bill."In short, it's little more than a political payoff to unions for spending $400 million in campaign cash to elect Democrats to Congress and the White House last year. As if the outrageous favors they've received from the auto bailouts aren't enough. But unions don't just get a tax break. They also get a great recruiting tool. After all, nationalizing health care in itself undermines any reason to belong to a union, since unions exist to squeeze more out of companies. If a company is no longer involved in health care and thus can no longer be squeezed, why belong to a union? The answer: special tax privileges.This will artificially beef up union membership. Who wouldn't want tax-free health care over subsidizing someone else's as the current congressional bills dictate?With the Employee Free Choice Act to coerce workers into unions now dead in the water, this could be a backdoor means of doing the same thing — while bringing in more campaign cash to Democrats. This may be great for the Democrats and their union backers, but it's bad for the rest of us. By creating a two-tier system of pricing for health care, and with it privileges for party elites, it's fundamentally unfair to the public as a whole. The people who will get the short end of the stick on this — the rationing, the shortages, the wait lists — will be the very ones forced into paying for other people's health care. Unions will get a free ride. Remember that whenever health care is "free" or subsidized to consumers, it distorts the market and creates disincentives to cut costs. So under the Kennedy-Baucus plan, union health care costs will soar without restraint. And ordinary Americans will pay.This will turn unions, whose members comprise only 6% of U.S. workers, into a privileged caste, for no other reason than their political muscle with Democrats.There's a word for this: Peronism. That was the populist political patronage system that took Argentina from one of the richest countries in the world in the early 20th century to the economically troubled nation it is today. It's a bad model for the U.S. to follow.* Just to mention that this is a gross mis-use of the office of the president and your administration. This is an example of change we did not elect you to do.

The ORIELLY CHRONICLES
Mr. O,
Jan. 5, 2009 - You continue to attack those who speculate on oil and at the same time you sell speculation on gold! Jan. 5, 2009 "Because of their quasi-government status there is a market perception that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (GSEs) mortgage-backed securities and debt carry and explicit Federal guarantee against default. Hence, the GSEs expose the federal taxpayer to an ever-increasing potential contingent liability that could ultimately cost tens of billions to rectify." Vern McKinley - Cato Institute - 1997 You continue to babble about how nobody knew about the tax liability when you should be saying nobody was listening. Hope you fired your financial advisors.
Dec. 12, 2008 You continue to attack those who speculate on oil and at the same time you sell speculation on gold!
Oct. 14, 2008 You said liberals were supposed to be opened minded. You are right. It is a core value and principle. Then you stated the people of Marin County are very closed minded. The question of the last 50-60 years. Why do media types like yourself keep calling closed minded, intolerant individuals liberals? We all deserve an answer!
Sept. 29, 2008You know; That the small number of Libertarians in public office, appointed and elected, are doing a better job of, use and protection, of public tax monies than Republicans or Democrats. But, you and the rest of the media never talk about it. That is a failing on both your parts as to informing the public. That makes you all political hacks at some level. The words that comes to mind is 'dereliction of duty.'
Sept. 23, 2008 You do a good job of selling gold as in investment. As you know the more you sell, the more the price will rise. It does not mean there is a shortage of gold, just a more desire to own the commodity caused by your efforts. However when it comes to oil you do not see that you do the same thing..just a different commodity.
Sept. 11, 2008 You keep saying Senator Obama is very very smart. Brilliant even. Yet, he has no clue his lipstick on a pig remark, in a prepared speech, would not be a reference to Governor Palin.His audience laughed and whenced all at the same time, with the facial expressions to match. The audience knew immediately what, and who he was referring to. And, it was not Senator McCain.In his most recent statement he said Governor Palin would have been the lipstick and Republican policy would be the pig. Basically, that is just another way of saying the same thing. But according to you no sane person could ever make that connection. Well, I guess most of us who are paying attention, are insane just like his audience.
August 6 Your complaining about e-mails accusing you of being a socialist. Pathetic, since you and Hannity are a main source of the ignorance. The idea that liberals, socialist and authoritarians are basically the same animal.The liberal concept would be you help those you volunteer/choose to help. Pretty much what you proposed the oil companies do regarding heating oil. However you have brainwashed citizens that this liberal concept is an example of socialism.And, you and your guest think you have to explain to voters what it means to be a liberal. You think we don't know what it means to be a liberal.No sir; it is you and your guests that do not know what it means to be a liberal..not us. Again, pathetic that you complain, when the ignorance that you preach, is thrown back in your face in the form of an e-mail accusing you of being a socialist. (see Mar.13)
April 28 Regarding the good Senator Obama you might consider an old quote."Everyman is like the company he is wont to keep". Euripides - 500 B.C.Some things do not change...No matter how hard you try Mr. O, the good Senator is what he is and you can not change it. (see April 17th...still no answer)
April 21"The minorities get preferential treatment and I think they should". It sounds like the same old racism, Jim Crow Laws, designed to reward or punish based on race, culture or status. Makes you sound like a conservative Democrat and the "psycho babble" taught in Public Schools.April 17You seem to be smitten by Osama Bama (if it's good enough for Uncle Teddy it is good enough for me) so I have a question for the the good Senator from the great State of Illinois....kinda like being from the great State of Louisiana. I has been reported that Senator Obama is a devotee of Nietzsche and Nihilism...true or false? If true it would explain his lack of inability to take a moral stand regarding any and all issues. If not true, you should squash the claim.Mar. 13 Pure racism is "rewards or punishment" based on race. You are right. liberals are not racist. Liberals traded slavery for individual liberty.*However, Democrats have always, and still do, use racism as a political club. Again, by definition and action, Democrats are not liberals. And you will say, " that's interesting." (see Oct. 12).*Ludwig von MisesJan. 22, 2008 When you refuse to discuss Ron Paul because he is not electable...you miss the point. If you were "looking out for us" you would discuss the ideas he brings to the political arena...that is his importance.
Nov. 7 So you consider yourself a member of the "Peoples Party".....this is very interesting. The populist is usually another name for socialist....or the "King" by another name??? And one caller called you on your version of what it means to be a honest law abiding person....And once again you explained that you would break the law, therefore is OK for illegal aliens to break the law!...Way to GO Mr. "O". Oct. 31She is a liberal......Bill Orielly - KABC 790 She is a socialist...John Ziegler KFI 640 Regarding Senator Clinton
Oct. 30 Today you seem to use the word socialist, libertine, liberal, marxist, secular progressive, authortarian, and affirmative action, as if they were all interchangeable...When I do research I can not find anything that supports your view......WHY NOT?
Oct. 24 You are on the right track when you said that only about twenty (20) percent of the people were liberals..... Currently, I would estimate it is much lower at about ten (10) to twelve (12) percent and at any given time in history nor more than thirty (30) percent.....which holds true for all our short history and thousands of years before. What you don't understand is in that group many liberals call themselves libertarians, classic liberals ect., ect. because of the undeserved beating they get from all the radio heads. Oct. 15 You slander and demean me everyday....for you to even infer that mocking the Catholic church has anything to do with liberalism or what it means to be a liberal, without any basis in fact or support, is despicable. Oct. 12The Democrats are on the left.......The Klan (KKK) is on the right.....according to you.Let me see....I'm thinking....I'm thinking......HMMMMMM,............. still thinking..........OH YEAH, the Democrats were the Klan (KKK) JIm Crow Laws ect., that controlled politics in several states in Old North East and the Old South.
Oct. 11, 2007 You are automatically a U.S. citizen if you if you are born here.....according to you. Well....not according to the constitution.....nor does US vs. Wong support your position. As you say....... What is your frame of reference? I'm convinced ....you do make it up as you go along...It is a good thing you don't write your books the same way you are on air.

NEW McCain same OLD Problem
May 11, 2006
Senator John Mc Cain,
We do not have a problem with immigration. We have a problem with selective enforcement of the law based on culture/religion/skin color ect. We have elected public officials/political parties/religious leaders/public employee unions et al., that advocate aid & abet unlawful conduct: human traffic, drug traffic, fraud in everything from social benefits to the election process, and a black market of labor and goods! All for the purpose of gaining political power, at the cost of our national sovereignty, under the guise of individual liberty and civil rights!!
We do not need nor desire a new system of appointing immigration judges.
We do not need nor desire new legislation/laws regarding legal or illegal immigration.
We do need and desire an immigration policy that does not cause a drain of treasury,
nor create a separatist nation within a nation.
We do need and desire for you to stand up!, Stand Up!, STAND UP and FIGHT for the integrity and sovereignty of the United States, against all others. (added Sept. 11, 2008)
We do need and desire to enforce the laws as they stand for we are a nation of laws first and foremost. We must do this for 10-15 years...then we can consider the need for new legislation, laws or policy.
We have not enforced current laws for the last 40 - 50 years....We have no idea how well they work or effects/affects of enforcement.
The road we are on is a very dangerous one. If authorities maintain a policy of selective law enforcement based on culture/religion/skin color ect., or make new laws to cover-up past failures...more and more citizens will attempt to fill that void or lack of enforcement. This road can only lead to a more authoritarian federal government, extreme civil unrest, or worst case; states seceding, civil war or both.
You have to decide what road you desire.
Respectfully,
ps: If we need more personnel use the Department of Education...they are not doing anything important!
