Speaker Boehner is not a Conservative

 

By Oscar Y. Harward

 

How about introducing legislation as our Honorable Senator Jesse Helms and a few others in the past followed to reduce and/or eliminate laws as reducing our National debt.  Liberal Democrats nicknamed Sen. Helms as ‘Senator No’ because of his effort to stop-the-spending.

 

A major problem with our elected officials on Capitol Hill and across America is for efforts to originate and support more legislations so as they may return home and announce their legislation; regardless of the cost to the American taxpayers and/or adding more deficit spending.  Legislators wish to have programs, buildings, highways, etc. approved and named after them; all costing the taxpayers’ money.

 

While listening to Capitol Hill hearings on ‘Immigration’ and other political conversations outside of official hearings, it is nauseating and infuriating as to how we see and hear Capitol Hill Democrats, Republicans In Name Only (RINO) Republicans, and our Capitol Hill GOP leadership remaining silent on supporting ‘illegal’ immigration regardless of the messages of the November 2014 General Elections.

 

Democrats support the continuation of ‘illegal’ immigration while RINO Republicans and our Capitol Hill GOP leadership appears their desire to change our ‘immigration’ laws, only to allow more immigration leading to Amnesty.

 

Remember the Gang of Eight!  http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/09/03/Border-Patrol-Agents-Don-t-Pass-Gang-of-Eight-Immigration-Bill

 

More than 50% of ‘illegal’ immigrants are currently living off a bloating government on taxpayers’ money for food, housing, education, and healthcare, etc. 

 

Most Democrats praise President Obama, AG Eric Holder, and others in the Obama While House.  Earlier, several RINO Republicans, and specifically 2016 Presidential candidates, supported ‘Illegal’ immigration; however, most have softly reversed their previous political positions on ‘illegal’ immigration as the political polls have proven in the November Elections all across America prove how a majority of Americans ‘OPPOSE’ illegal immigration.

Our Founding Fathers, fed up with an out-of-control government departed their native countries moving to America.  Their home governments were seizing their freedoms.  Our Founding Fathers were determined to form a new and boundless nation.

 

On July 4, 1776, a small group from across of our new continent came together in Philadelphia, PA to formulate and approve a new ‘Declaration of Independence’  http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/declaration_transcript.html and proceeded into forming a new Constitution http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution constructed  on a ‘Republic’ http://www.theunion.com/opinion/7699648-113/democracy-majority-fathers-founding form of government and based on Christian values and freedoms.

 

Over the years and since that formation, legislators have written many supplementary laws that would and has chipped away at vigorous and intelligent working Americans freedoms by demanding more of their incomes and giving these assets to many who are/were unwilling to work vigorously and/or work nifty in improving their own lives and their families.  Those who are unable to work or have ‘fallen through the cracks’ must be protected with essential ‘NEEDS’, not their desires.

 

In more recent years, and with this form of expanding ‘Socialism’ http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/socialism by providing all the needs and wants, to all the people, all the time has led up to a point whereas, the questing is how can America continue to survive under a Republic style of government.

 

President Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, most other Capitol Hill Democrats, and many Republicans In Name Only (RINO) Republicans continue to spend more borrowed monies, and placed on a Credit Card at the taxpayers overburdened costs of the working Americans to again, give away more of (y)our money to those who are unwilling to work. 

 

Our National Debt http://www.usdebtclock.org/ has now reached more than $17.55 Trillion to Americans’ taxpayers, whereas each living human in the USA owes more than $55 Thousand each and with each taxpayer owing more than $151 Thousand.

 

Now, we have reached a crossroad where the taxpayers are overburdened in supporting those who just refuse to work.  At the same time, these same President Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, most other Capitol Hill Democrats, and many Republicans In Name Only (RINO) Republicans are demanding and requiring more deficient spending, with no ‘BALANCE BUDGET AMENDMENT’ in sight.  Our American government is so deeply indebted to China, Saudi Arabia, and others, we have reached a point where we, the USA, may not have the borrowing power to ascertain the necessary funding in a war for protecting our citizens and freedoms.  This now affects our National Security and safety.  To stop the financial bleeding, legislators much ‘shut down our government’ if that is necessary, until common-sense is restored in enacting and enforcing a ‘BALANCE BUDGET AMENDMENT’.

 

As states and federal legislators continue to ignore God, our Holy Bible, and our Constitutional values followed by our out-of-control deficit spending, America may die very soon.

Pat McCrory who

By Oscar Y. Harward

 

For nearly 50 years, I practiced expanding a Conservative Republican Party; first, volunteering on Jim Gardner’s 1968 NC Governor’s campaign. Then, Sen. Jesse Helms (1972 through 1996), Gov. Jim Holshouser (1976), Sen. John East (1980), Gov. Jim Martin (1984), Sen. Lauch Faircloth (1992), 3 Ronald Reagan campaigns (1976-1984); and many others.

 

Being totally disabled, I attempted assisting Pat McCrory’s two ‘gubernatorial’ campaigns.

 

In October 2013, I requested Gov. McCrory consider granting a Commutation’ to a friend and former employee convicted of a felony in 1998; a crime induced with and directly associated to ‘illegal drugs’. While incarcerated, this individual has vowed to never again associate with ‘illegal drugs’ or any other illegal activity, has cultivated his daily ‘Christian’ life, growing his life professionally, and has ‘NO’ infractions nearing 6 years.

 

The only ‘self-serving’ requests I ever sought were to be appointed to my local Board of Elections and elected as a Delegate to the 1996 GOP National Convention. I never requested any favors that were improper, illegal, or immoral. My entire goals include helping others in their lives; personally, politically, and professionally.

 

Now, all communications go ‘only’ through McCrory’s staff; never allowed thru Gov. McCrory, himself; and certainly left saddened.

Democrat and Republican leaders ‘mislead’ House and Senate legislators to vote ‘AYE’ in support of the ‘so-called’ bipartisan Patty Murray/Paul Ryan legislation. “The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013” cuts our military personnel benefits; COLA for our military retirees who are under age 62, and our retiree/disabled members and their dependent/survivors; including our ‘Wounded Warriors’.

 

Now GOP leaders are considering ‘forcing’ Conservative TEA Party Republicans to vote ‘AYE’ on increasing an ever increasing National Debt so as to ‘cover Republican leaders’ earlier wrongful guidance.

 

February 10, 2014 ‘Time’ says GOP leaders, Mitch McConnell and John Boehner are considering attaching legislation of ‘raising the National Debt’ to ‘restoring the rollback of military pension cuts’; as so many voted ‘AYE’ for H.R. 59.

 

This vote would restore earlier described military cuts; however, restoring military benefits could stand on its’ own merit.  The difference is passage of this legislation would expand more ‘deficit spending’ and ‘diminish’ much of the promised budget cuts.

 

This ‘forcing’ vote, as presented, could/would force Conservative TEA Party Republicans to vote ‘AYE’ in raising a ‘bloated, out-of-control, deficit spending’ National Debt limit legislation just for restoring our military retirees and ‘Wounded Warriors’.

 

Conservative TEA Party Republicans and all other American ‘Patriots’ must ‘compel’ the ‘MORAL, FISCAL, and NATIONAL SECURITY’ actions to be successful in the finale.  We must join together and ‘attack all corruption’ in Washington; be it be Democrats, Republicans, and/or Independents.

 

If ‘forcing’ McConnell’s and Boehner’s legislation is their best political decision, they may belong in the same ecosystem of these ‘politically corrupt’ politicians as in the White House and others on Capitol Hill. 

 

Senator McConnell and Speaker John Boehner must not hold GOP legislators and/or military earlier retirees, their dependents and/or our ‘Wounded Warriors’ as ‘captives’ due to their own ‘wrongful and thoughtless’ leadership decisions on Capitol Hill.

As I communicate with so many Americans across our great nation on a daily basis, Republicans on a local, state, and national basis are saying they ‘will not support’ Republicans in 2014 and/or 2016 on a broad basis.  These all across the region are saying they probably will vote, but not for these spenders; however, they may stay at home.  Many are saying that they are ‘done’ with this spending.

 

Our Capitol Hill Republican leaders and the RNC leadership are joining in with more additional deficit spending of our National debt; many Republicans are separating themselves from any additional support of GOP candidates who continue joining in with this insanity.

 

Many Republicans are going to become disappointed as many voters refuse to support many Republican candidates for re-election.  If you don’t believe it, just wait and watch it happen.

 

As different as it may seem, it appears many Capitol Hill ‘RINO’ Republicans are joining forces in support of the ‘fiscal’ policies of President Obama and Capitol Hill ‘Liberal’ Democrat Party of tax-and-spend.

 

While Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell may be suggesting their political decisions are a ‘strategy’, Americans continue to ‘scream’ as TEA Party Conservative Republicans are ‘demanding’ to ‘stop-the-spending’.

 

GOP leaders, your polling numbers and my polling results are with different numbers.

Does ‘everyone’ on this Union County, NC Superior Court Jury, this Union County, NC School Board Administration, their ‘legal team’ who function all at taxpayers’ expense, and/or this Union County, NC Board of Education ‘lack’ the abilities indicating this Judgment against Union County, NC, if it stands in the NC Supreme Court, could bring Union County, NC to be forced into a Union County, NC Bankruptcy; equivalent to what you can see now in Detroit, Michigan. 

 

Homeowners, businesses, and all others will be unable and/or unwilling to pay these outrageous tax increases as given to this Court decision when better appealing locations will be much more attractive to live in and work in businesses.

Americans are discovering more about President Obama’s and Capitol Hill Democrats’ ‘ObamaCare’ falsified declarations, misgivings of medical care, more enormous ‘ObamaCare’ premium increases, and other catastrophes.  We are finally learning as to how dishonest President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats have been, and continue to deliberately ‘lie’ about (y)our most needed and trusted Health Care system in the entire world.  Where are the responsible ‘main-stream’ Medias?  Why do so many of the ‘main-stream’ Medias continue to fail Americans on this issue?

 

With our ‘private’ Health Care industry, along with Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, and other individuals’ personal plans, Americans are very well cared for.  There are ‘little to no’ needs for disrupting our current Health Care system with ‘ObamaCare’ or any other government plan(s).

 

While marketing ‘ObamaCare’, President Obama and others declared, “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan, period.”

 

While marketing ‘ObamaCare’, President Obama and others declared, “If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period.”

 

While marketing ‘ObamaCare’, President Obama and others stated that your Health Care premiums under ‘ObamaCare’ would be reduced.  This, too, is untrue on almost all cases!  Americans are finding ‘ObamaCare’ premium increase averages from 62% in California, 60% in Alabama, 34% in Texas, 41% in Arizona, and 92% in North Carolina.  Some Americans are finding increases of ‘ObamaCare’ at or around 100% and higher.  Due to these extreme ‘ObamaCare’ premium increases, many middle-class, working Americans are being forced into Medicaid coverage.

 

‘Millions’ of Americans are having their current personal and business Health Care policies cancelled due to ‘ObamaCare’ requirements; for example, males are forced to pay for pregnancy medical care costs on themselves.  Wow!

 

Many other ‘untrue’ statements as reported by President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are now arriving in the public area on a daily basis; deceptive words, phrases, and other statements that are unworthy of ‘integrity’ from government leaders.

 

Many ‘main-stream’ Medias continue to deceive Americans by covering up President Obama’s falsifications.  Except for the ‘main-stream’ Medias ‘First Amendment’ with ‘Freedom of Speech’, some of these members would and should, otherwise, be investigated, prosecuted, convicted, and sentenced to jail.

 

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are now commencing to blame the ‘insurance industry’ as they are now attacking this industry that has served Americans for hundreds of years.  In the near future, you may see President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats pursue and introduce new legislation that would totally destroy our Health Insurance industry and other insurance subsidiaries, and, perhaps, lead to a government takeover of our entire banking industry.

 

With recently presented verification of earlier claims from President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats now turn out to be falsified with facts, and with additional information arriving about ‘ObamaCare’ that turns out to be fraudulent claims now confirms that ‘ObamaCare’ must be repealed.  Many more political bombs in this legislation may be yet to come.  You and I can expect President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats to continue to ‘cram ‘ObamaCare’ down our throats’.  2014 General Election will prove that a large majority of Americans will overwhelmingly reject ‘ObamaCare’, a much different law than as previously promised.

 

Americans are finding that the ‘Affordable Care Act’ is not affordable at all for most individuals and families.  The selfish and ignorant must awaken before it is too late.  ‘Main-stream’ Medias should become more honest and professional with their own ‘Freedom of Speech’ protections.  President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats must stop praying on the selfish and Ignorant.

It is a sad day in America for the Republican Party and its’ Capitol Hill Senate leadership.

 

As many Americans are struggling to maintain their jobs, their homes and their families, Republican Conservatives and others across our nation are standing firm to scream at President Obama and Capitol Hill legislators demanding that they must ‘stop-the-spending’, repeal or defund ‘ObamaCare’, restore our Constitutional freedoms, and rebuild our weakened economy.

 

Legislation, as included in ‘ObamaCare’, is and will continue to damage our already depleted economy.  America’s economy cannot support another drain on our nation and/or our working citizens.  Any unknowing person should be able to see, recognize, and fully understand our entire crisis.

 

The ‘problem’ is simple; ‘out-of-control’ DEFICIT spending is breaking our economy and destroying our Constitutional ‘individual’ freedoms. 

 

The ‘solution’ simple; stop the ‘out-of-control’ DEFICIT spending to save our economy and our Constitutional ‘individual’ freedoms.

 

On October 16, 2013, and on Senate Vote Number 219, H.R. 2775 (Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell ‘led’ 26 fellow Senate Republicans to vote for ‘Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014’; another case of ‘kicking the can further down the road’ rather than forcing President Obama and Senate Democrats to stop the ‘out-of-control’ deficit spending,  and defunding or repealing ‘ObamaCare’.  Sen. McConnell showed no ‘Conservative’ support to his fellow Senate GOP Conservative Republicans or for the House GOP Conservatives.

 

Why?  For Sen. McConnell, had included a hidden $2 Billion payout of additional deficit spending for his own State of Kentucky included into H.R. 2775; all additionaldeficit spending’ at taxpayers’ expense.  Sen. McConnell, you sold the Republican Party, the GOP Platform Plan values, your own personal principles, and your own heart for a whole lot ($2 Billion) of taxpayers’ money?  Sen. Mitch McConnell, what ethics or principles are left in your political life?  That is political corruption.  That is totally unacceptable.  You must resign, and resign now!

 

We, as Conservatives, reject this political corruption in the Democrat and/or the Republican Party.  While Democrats seem to be wrapped up in this dishonesty, Conservative Republicans take action to fix the problem.

 

If Senate Republicans and/or the Republican National Committee fail to accept Mitch McConnell’s resignation, and/or remove Sen. Mitch McConnell as Senate Minority Leader, Republicans and Independents, will do so in the 2014 Primary or General Elections.  In lieu of Sen. Mitch McConnell’s removal, American voters will remove all, as applied!

Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell may now be spilling out one of his first confirmations to conceal his support of ObamaCare, President Obama, Sen. Harry Reid, and other ‘Liberal’ Capitol Hill Democrats for his guaranteed receipt of a $2 Billion Kentucky payoff in his support of his vote and leadership for many of his 26 other GOP Senate legislators for shredding our Constitutional freedoms.  How cheap can Sen. Mitch McConnell be bought? 

 

For Sen. McConnell, who included a $2 Billion payout of additional deficit spending for his State of Kentucky included in this new ‘Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014’ legislation, and his additional and similar voting 26 RINO Republican legislators who voted, how much is too much for deficit spending?  Sen. McConnell, is there any limit to spending that is too much?  Have you sold your principles and your own heart for a whole lot ($2 Billion) of taxpayers’ money?  Do you, Sen. Mitch McConnell have any ethics in principles left?  You must resign!

 

According to Newsmax, “Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell made it clear on Thursday that repealing Obamacare would never be used by Republicans again to bring the federal government to a halt.”  

 

Rumors on Capitol Hill indicate Speaker of the House John Boehner is trying to accept President Obama’s ObamaCare ‘exemptions’ for Capitol Hill legislators.  Who, why, and when did it become so important for our Capitol Hill legislators to take care of yourself first, rather than to place the American electorate first?

 

The Capitol Hill Democrat Party and our own Capitol Hill Republican Party ‘leadership’ is selling out our freedoms and values and in return ascertaining more taxpayers’ deficit money and other favors that are left to be paid by our children, and their children, along with other ‘pet’ projects, and other Democrat Party favors.  Cheap!  Cheap!  Cheap!

 

Capitol Hill Democrats and RINO Republicans on Capitol Hill have lost or forgotten our Constitutional freedoms as based on Christian values.  Capitol Hill Democrats and RINO Republicans must be challenged, defeated, and/or removed in upcoming future elections.

 

The economy ‘problem’ is simple; excessive deficit spending is breaking our national economy, our individual freedoms, our families, and our Constitution.  The ‘solution’ for a rebuilding economy is simple; stop the spending to save our economy, our individual freedoms, our families, and our Constitution.

 

Capitol Hill legislators have already added $6.3 Trillion of additional deficit spending debt in less than 5 years under President Obama.  How much deficit spending is enough for President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats, and/or RINO Republicans?  When will the deficit spending end that is leaving an unbearable debt to (y)our children, their children, etc.? 

 

A continuation of deficit spending by Democrats, Republicans, and/or Independents is a form of political corruption and this endless progression is destroying our Constitution, our fiscal and social values, as well as our national security.

 

Republican Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT), as well as other legislators and supporters who vote and aspire to ‘stop-the-spending’ to save America, our economy, our Constitution, and our families are ‘right on these issues’.   

 

Do not allow President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats, and the Liberal ‘main-stream’ Medias destroy our American ‘HERO’ legislators who are trying to stop the out-of-control’ spending.  It is our American ‘HERO’ legislators who are trying to restore our nation and our US economy.

 

On Capitol Hill, so-called ‘negotiations’ are directed by President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats, and the Liberal ‘main-stream’ Medias that demand Republican legislators to cross the aisle and join Democrats on ‘more deficit spending; a proven scheme to more quickly destroy our entire nation.

 

To save our Constitution and our nation, Conservatives must say ‘NO’ to more deficit spending; before it is too late.

 

God Bless America!

In an effort for Republican Conservatives to stop the deficit spending and defund the ‘job-killing’ ObamaCare, 87 House (RINO) Republicans voted ‘YEA’ with President Obama, Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), all House Democrats, and ObamaCare.

In January, 2009 as Barack Obama was sworn in as US President, our National debt was $10.63 Trillion.  Today, our National Debt is reaching $17 Trillion, an increase of some $6.3 Trillion in deficit spending in a period of less than 5 years.

 

According to the Treasury Department, when George W. Bush took office in 2001 the national debt was $5.73 trillion and when Bush left office in 2009, the national debt had increased to $10.63 trillion; an increase in deficit spending of $4.7 Trillion over his entire 2 Presidential terms of 8 years.  During President George W. Bush’s 8 years as President, America suffered one of the most expensive storms ever during Hurricane Katrina.

 

Additionally, under President George W. Bush’s tenure, our USA was attacked on 9/11/01 by radical Islamic Muslims by flying 2 hijacked airplanes into New York’s ‘twin towers’ and an effort to fly another airplane elsewhere.  

 

To protect Americans, President Obama and Capitol Hill legislators were forced to ‘finance’ our new Federal Government Department of Homeland Security Appropriations reaching out to all states, counties, and municipal governments with massive numbers of resources, equipment, and training for specialists in each and all of these branches of governments.

 

During these less than 5 years as President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats continue to spend more of (y)our taxpayers’ money; most borrowed from the governments of Saudi Arabia and Communist China.  These debts are being left to our children, their children, etc.  Currently, every American citizen, young or old, owes $53,531 to our National debt.  Every US taxpayer owes $148,133 to our National debt.  At the same period of time, these same Democrat Party officials demand more and more of (y)our taxpayers’ earned income in higher taxes.

 

During these less than 5 years, our National debt has been ‘crammed down our throats’ some $6.3 Trillion deficit spending by President Obama, most Capitol Hill Democrats, and some ‘Republican In Name Only’ (RINO) Republicans.

 

The ‘problem’ is simple; excessive deficit spending is breaking our national economy, our individual freedoms, our families, and our Constitution.  The ‘solution’; stop the spending to save our economy, our individual freedoms, our families, and our Constitution.

 

When will an American electorate make a wise decision that ‘healthy’ Americans, as individuals, have a responsibility of earning and spending on themselves and their families, rather than depending on a mishandled authority from a freebie and forsaking government?

 

When will Capitol Hill legislators and other leaders recognize that ‘out-of-control’ spending is destroying our economy, our national economy, our individual freedoms, our families, and our Constitution?

 

As Margaret Thatcher, the ‘Iron Lady’ once said, "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

 

Republican Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT), as well as other legislators and supporters who vote and aspire to ‘stop-the-spending’ to save America, our economy, our Constitution, and our families are ‘right on these issues’. 

 

Democrats, Republicans, Independents, etc. who continue to vote and aspire the ‘out-of-control’ spending are destroying our economy, our Constitution, our individual freedoms, and our families, as all of these individuals are ‘wrong on these issues’.  Wake up America!

 

God Bless America!

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is ‘RIGHT’ on this issue and others.

 

Why should any Republican on Capitol Hill negotiate on anything to President Obama as he has ‘blasted’ Republicans on a daily basis for more than 4 years?

 

Remember, we are approaching $17 Trillion in deficit spending; more than $6 Trillion under this President Obama administration in the past 4 plus years.  When will the spending stop?

 

Stopping President Obama, Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and many other Capitol Hill Democrats from spending the USA into bankruptcy is the only way to same our nation.

 

To win in 2014, Capitol Hill Republicans must remain strong to stop the out-of-control spending. For all of those RINO Republicans who fail to agree, we will find a replacement for each of you.

As Ronald Reagan said, “… the government is the problem”.

 

Rather than having government to entice entrepreneurs in creating more jobs, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats continue to obstruct more barriers for capitalists to overcome.

 

Today, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are immovable on ‘ObamaCare’, a ‘job-killing’ law that Americans, Businesses, and even, Labor Unions reject; however and to the end, President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats are determined to ‘cram ObamaCare down (y)our throat’.  

 

Some four years ago, it was Capitol Hill Democrat Party House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi who was driving Capitol Hill Democrats to ‘cram ObamaCare down (y)our throat’.  Today, it is Democrat Party Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, who is driving the issue.

 

It appears that all President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats know and/or understand is First; more spending and all deficit spending in excess to government income.  Secondly; it appears these Democrats demand is more taxes on working Americans; a group of those who are willing to work harder and smarter to enhance their family income, and Thirdly; for Democrats, it is all about fully funding and enforcing ‘ObamaCare’.

 

President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats seek to support and give more government giveaways to the voters who lack the personal initiative(s) to work harder and smarter to improve their own everyday lifestyle.

 

A majority of Americans do reject ‘ObamaCare’.  Businesses in the ‘private sector’ reject ‘ObamaCare’.  Labor Unions reject ‘ObamaCare’.  ‘ObamaCare’ is a ‘job-killer’ in our ‘free-market’ economy.  Americans have reached a peak whereas working Americans are over-taxed or Taxed Enough Already (TEA).  Many Americans are determined, willing, and enthusiastic in rebuilding our economy with jobs, jobs, and more jobs in the private sector as soon as government obstructions are removed.

 

President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats and the NAACP support ObamaCare.  The ‘main-stream’ Medias support President Obama, Capitol Hill Democrats, and ‘ObamaCare’, most of all who appear to have little knowledge, experience, and/or wisdoms other than their desire for ‘ObamaCare’.

 

If and whenever President Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats wake up and ‘perceive’ the problems with government, and American voters become engaged in government abilities to recognize that ‘government knows best’ is the wrong direction, and these voters start voting accordingly, then and only then will our US economy explode with growth; more new jobs in the private sector than ever expected.
