Pucker up.
Regardless of how much lipstick the Obama administration smears, the oinking isn’t going away: a sweeping Ponzi scheme of federal graft to pass the bill including San Joaquin Valley water-for-votes, Bart Stupak’s $52 million dollars for airporKs, Chris Dodd’s new $100 million hospital, special deals for union members, Louisiana purchase, Harry Reid conniving behind closed doors to exempt his staff and others from the health care exchange, abortions paid for by tax payers (an executive order won’t stem the stench), prescription-strength sex-enhancement medication for child sex offenders, federal government take-over of student loans resulting in private sector job loss, $500 billion cut to Medicare, raising Medicaid eligibility and forcing states to pay for it, $100 million in Medicaid money for Tennessee, steep hikes in capital gains and federal income taxes, taxes on medical devices such as automated wheelchairs, heating pads, and ace bandages, heightened risk of medical identity theft and abuse, increased cost of health insurance premiums, massive increase in federal government bureaucracies – over 150 new agencies, 17,000 enforcing IRS agents to be hired, and the swirling slop continues to grow.
The CBO reports that Americans bought a pig in a poke; our debt will rise to 90% of our GDP by 2020. In the meantime, we’re supposed to wade through the muck while paying for four years of taxes before the ‘supposed’ benefits become reality (Obama lied about children with pre-existing conditions being covered NOW).
Mitt Romney’s ‘Prescription for Repeal’:
DIRECTS 1ST DONATIONS TO ANTI-OBAMACARE CANDIDATES IN OHIO
Today, Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC announced a new donation program, dubbed “Prescription for Repeal,” to support conservative candidates who will repeal the worst aspects of Obamacare and restore commonsense principles to healthcare. The first wave of endorsements goes to three conservative leaders in key Ohio Congressional Districts.
The PAC will send each of the endorsed candidates a primary election contribution of $2,500. They are:
Representative Jean Schmidt: Representative Jean Schmidt represents Ohio’s Second Congressional District and is running for reelection to her third full term. She voted against ObamaCare on Sunday. For more information on Representative Jean Schmidt and her campaign, visit www.jeanschmidt.com
Representative Steve Chabot: Representative Steve Chabot served as Congressman in Ohio’s First Congressional District for fourteen years and is running to reclaim his seat.

“Health care reform shouldn’t mean higher taxes, cuts to our seniors on Medicare, insurance price controls or greater federal involvement in our lives. America has unfortunately been taken down the wrong path by President Obama, which is why it’s critical we elect fiscally-responsible conservative leaders who will restore commonsense principles to healthcare,” said Romney.
The Ohio donations are the first of a series of “Prescription for Repeal” state rollouts over the coming weeks.
Romney’s ‘Prescription for Repeal’ keeps rolling:
2nd wave of DONATIONS TO ANTI-OBAMACARE CANDIDATES IN Missouri

“President Obama’s healthcare bill – with its higher taxes, cuts in Medicare, insurance price controls and greater federal involvement in our lives — is unhealthy for America. It is critical that we elect fiscally-responsible conservative leaders who will work to restore commonsense principles to healthcare,” said Romney.
These Missouri endorsements are the second in a series of “Prescription for Repeal” state rollouts over the coming weeks.
Joe Biden’s attempt to tie a bow on the pig’s tail at the Obamacare signing ceremony failed when he uttered a rancid expletive remark which was later approved through a text message from White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs. Obama glibly expressed a desire for t-shirts emblazoned with the expletive and immediately set off on his Rub-’Ravishing-Red’-Lip-Gloss-on-Miss-Piggy tour. Mocking Republicans was a priority:
Jason Mattera is the author of Obama Zombies – a book about the behind-the-scenes methods and tactics the Obama campaign exercised on the youth culture to win an election and create long-lasting devastation to our country. Mattera’s message is to jolt the young masses from their slumber and spark a countercultural barnyard battle against the oinking, ignorant left. In the following video, Mattera speaks with Senator Al Franken (D-MN), Congressman Alan Grayson (D-Fl), and Congressman Jim Moran (D-VA) about the nonsensical gluttony in the porcine Health Care Bill:
We’ve got TWO chances to demolish the pigpen: 2010 and 2012. We’re one step closer to Obama’s stated goal of a single-payer system and must OUT the SNOUTS who voted ‘yes’ for 
this bill. We must donate money to their opponents, work hard in their districts, and vote to replace as many Democrats as possible. While judicial challenges hope to address the fetid odors coming from this bill, we MUST win seats in the House and Senate this fall. We must capture a larger portion of the youth vote. With a majority in both chambers we can defund lipstick appropriations for Obamacare. We must elect a Republican president in 2012. Then, we must empty the slop bucket by replacing Obamacare with an alternative plan based on private-sector free-market principles.
The way to repeal Obamacare is to remove those who swill the trough. Vote Republican. Support Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC:
Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC […]supports officeholders and candidates who are dedicated to advancing social, fiscal and foreign policies that will strengthen America at this critical time in the nation’s history. The guiding focus is on the core principles that have built and nurtured America since its founding – uncompromised military strength, a belief in the power of free markets and that a competitive America is one where taxes are low and government is small, an emphasis on strong families and a federalist approach to government that leaves decision-making as close to the people as possible.

I’m glad Mitt is donating to Republican candidates, but the following statement from his PAC concerns me:
“Today, Mitt Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC announced a new donation program, dubbed “Prescription for Repeal,” to support conservative candidates who will repeal the worst aspects of Obamacare and restore commonsense principles to healthcare.”
Just “the worst” aspects, Mitt? Repeal the whole damn thing! You can’t fix this with a scalpel…the framework will still be in place. We need a hatchet!
I agree, the whole thing must go. If by “worst” you mean the whole thing, then yes!
Brian I can tell you are a debater, always looking at a candidate or issue from both sides and keeping your head above the fray. I bet you can debate sports and religion too. Sports, religion, and politics – the things anyone can debate if they’ve got an opinion. You like NFL? Got a favorite team? I usually like players instead of teams, ie. Brett Favre. I was pretty disenchanted when the Vikings lost.
LOL, it’s too early, I’m just rambling.
Obama fooling around with comments about Amagedan.sp? I think he is clueless and needs to stop the petty set ups of division between the parties and America….He is the one making statements that turn the tides on racism…I have seen this since he entered this political scene. He does it very cleverly…I am not for a minute fooled by his charm????We need a leader not a divider…..Great post, Jayde….thx….posted it on my facebook page….
It is a shame to waste so much time, energy, and money on a fruitless cause. The health care reform law will not be overturned. Social Security wasn’t overturned, Medicare remained intact, and Civil Rights passage became the law of the land. All were similarly challenged. Is this an effort on Mr. Romney’s part to keep the rich richer and the poor poorer?
@Kim Spoken like a true liberal.
But social security is going upside down this year – a few years early -. Medicare broke. Doctors are hard to find for a medicare paitent who can’t afford supp insurance. The system is broken, and needed fixing. BUT it did not need this extreme.
I do not have coverage for my husband and I. When we go to the doctor, we currently pay out of pocket. Same with the dentist. (they will often give a discount for cash). What’s wrong with having affordable cost? But this is not a one size fit all solution, as king O says it is. We need to allow each state to tailor their health care needs to the citizens of that state.
Nice job Kim, spoken like a true socialist. Let’s “share the wealth!” Alright, let’s see how well this govt run everything is currently working…
In April, Walgreens in Washington state will no longer accept Medicaid patients as of April 16.
The Mayo Clinic in AZ no longer accepts Medicaid. That is just the beginning. I work in Health Care and we get short changed every time we treat a medicaid patient. The system is not working so let’s cut medicaid even more and create a national health care system!
Social Security will probably be out of money by the end of the year. The post office is going broke and is looking to cut back service to 5 days a week. We are on our way to the same inefficient european socialistic society that Romney warned us about on the campaign trail. If you don’t have buyer’s remorse yet Kim, it either just hasn’t hit you yet or you’re a bigger idiot that I suspected.
In California, policymakers estimate they will have to come up with an additional $500 million a year to make necessary increases in payments to Medicaid providers. Meg Whitman estimates that Obamacare will add $3 billion in new obligations to California’s budget — on top of the $20 billion deficit CA is drowning under.
I’m not necessarily a debater–let’s just say politics is one of my hobbies. I used to hate Favre, but it’s hard not to like the guy when he’s on your team.
Look, I admire your loyalty to Mitt…and he really does seem like a nice guy. I just firmly believe that the MassCare issue will kill his candidacy. I’m trying to be as objective as I can. I’m reading opinions from all sides. If he somehow makes it through the primary, any attack on ObamaCare will be nuetered by the Dems because of the similarities( fair or not) to MassCare.
Just today, Obama compared the two plans on the Today Show:
“When you actually look at the bill itself, it incorporates all sorts of Republican ideas. I mean a lot of commentators have said this is sort of similar to the bill that Mitt Romney, the Republican Governor and now presidential candidate, passed in Massachusetts.
http://theplumline.whorunsgov.com/health-care/obama-my-plan-is-just-like-romneycare/
In addition, The Bostone Globe had this today:
“Basically, it’s the same thing,’’ said Jonathan Gruber, an MIT economist who advised the Romney and Obama administrations on their health insurance programs. A national health overhaul would not have happened if Mitt Romney had not made “the decision in 2005 to go for it. He is in many ways the intellectual father of national health reform.’’

Thanks Jayde. What a great article.
I agree we must get every seat we can in congress. 41 is the magic number to send Pelosi packing. I think Utah needs to send a republican in place of Matheson. He may have done our bidding this time but we won’t be able to count on him in the future and by giving his seat to a republican we are ever closer to getting rid of Pelosi. I think we can all agree she is far to effective to leave in position.
@Brian
Hey Brian, I sent you an email, did you get it? If not, can you send me a way to contact you via the email form on our contact page? It is a time sensitive message. Please respond thanks.
(and how could you hate Brett Favre?… He’s the best!)
I’m very interested in Mitt’s comments on the national bill. Mitt had the guts to take on this issue, and his foray into national politics may represent the republicans’ best chance tackle the elements not adequately addressed in the democrats plan.
My hope is that the teabagger boobs don’t screw things up for pragmatists like Mitt who may actually know how to get things done right. Maybe if republicans would have got this job done when George W was in charge (it’s not like they didn’t know health care reform was forthcoming) it would be the democrats whining now.
