What About the Baby?

In commemoration of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling, President Obama said the following yesterday. 

"Today, as we reflect on the 41st anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, we recommit ourselves to the decision's guiding principle: that every woman should be able to make her own choices about her body and her health.  We reaffirm our steadfast commitment to protecting a woman's access to safe, affordable health care and her constitutional right to privacy, including the right to reproductive freedom.  And we resolve to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies, support maternal and child health, and continue to build safe and healthy communities for all our children.  Because this is a country where everyone deserves the same freedom and opportunities to fulfill their dreams."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Something is missing. Did you catch it?

What about the baby’s choices about his/her body?

What about the baby’s access to safe, affordable health care?

What about the baby’s constitutional right to LIFE, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?

What about the baby’s right to be born?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

When you read between the lines, what you see is a very sick and twisted perspective on life:

“We resolve to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies”

By killing all unwanted babies?

                                                    

We will “build safe and healthy communities”

By killing off millions of babies and instilling a sense of irresponsibility on the part of sexually active men and woman?

“This is a country where everyone deserves the same freedom and opportunities to fulfill their dreams”

Unless you are an unborn baby in the womb of a women who does not want you!

The fact that these obvious omissions are not even called out in a mainstream manner, says more about the decline of morals in America than anything I can imagine short of executing undesirables – i.e. Nazy Germany.

House of Lies

Obamacare passed because the Democratic Party sold the country out in pursuit of the progressives' unconstitutional dream of taking over the country's healthcare system. Despite the fact that the majority of Americans opposed the law, they passed it anyway without a single vote by the Republicans and without a single legislator reading the bill.

Below is a list of the Top 10 lies stated by Obama in order to pass this monstrosity. Don't forget to check the record of your favorite Democrat who is up for reelection in 2014. What did they have to say in the months leading up to the vote. I bet you can find several instances where they uttered one or more of the following:

Promise #1: “If you like your health care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health care plan, period.”[2]

Reality: Millions of Americans have lost and will lose their coverage due to Obamacare.

Promise #2: “[T]hat means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period.”[6]

Reality:  Many Americans might not be able to keep their current doctor without paying extra.

Promise #3: “In an Obama administration, we’ll lower premiums by up to $2,500 for a typical family per year.”[9]

Reality: Premiums for people purchasing coverage in the individual market have significantly increased in a majority of states.

Promise #4: “[F]or the 85 and 90 percent of Americans who already have health insurance, this thing’s already happened. And their only impact is that their insurance is stronger, better and more secure than it was before. Full stop. That’s it. They don’t have to worry about anything else.”[12]

Reality: Obamacare imposes certain new benefit mandates on those with employer-sponsored coverage—a majority of Americans.

Promise #5: “Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase.”[15]

Reality: Obamacare contains 18 separate tax hikes, fees, and penalties, many of which heavily impact the middle class.

Promise #6: “I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits—either now or in the future.”[18]

Reality: Obamacare’s new spending is unsustainable.

Promise #7: “[W]hatever ideas exist in terms of bending the cost curve and starting to reduce costs for families, businesses, and government, those elements are in this bill.”[21]

Reality:  Health spending is still rising and is projected to grow at an average rate of 5.8 percent from 2012 to 2022.[22]

Promise #8: “I will protect Medicare.”[24]

Reality:  Obamacare cuts Medicare spending.

Promise #9: “I will sign a universal health care bill into law by the end of my first term as president that will cover every American.”[27]

Reality:  Millions of Americans will remain uninsured.

Promise #10: “So this law means more choice, more competition, lower costs for millions of  Americans.” [29]

Reality: Obamacare has not increased insurer competition or consumer choice.
