Obonzo and Lobbyists

Obonzo and Lobbyists

 

This healthcare debacle is very instructive. Why? Obonzo has no substantive experience in the legislative process—he hasn’t a clue how legislation is drafted and submitted.

 

A member or legislative committee germinates an idea for a legislative bill [vehicle].  Member staff & committee staff in concert with former staff [lobbyists—THE institutional memory of congress] then develop a framework of language, objectives, etc. and submit it to Bill Drafting—an agency of Congress.  NOTE:  Member staff and committee staff come and go—elections—but lobbyists hang around like a bad penny [myself included].  Obama simply is not privy to this process—why would he be?  How many pieces of legislation has he ever “authored”?  He loves to say lobbyists should be carved out of the process altogether—how naïve.  He doesn’t even know what lobbyists do.

 

Who wrote the healthcare bills?  Lobbyists—those friendly with the democratic leadership.  Who has now read the bills?  We know it ain’t Obonzo.  Most members of Congress, even staff, have not as you now know.  It’s the other half of those on K St. and surrounding—lobbyists.  The audacity of those bastards actually reading the bills and now letting us all know what is really being codified!  Why do lobbyists do this? Because they CAN and they are highly compensated to do just that—read the damned bills.

 

FYI:  Lobbyists wrote these healthcare vehicles [bills].  Only a socialist would approve of them.  Some of us are going through this, line by line.  You won’t believe what is really in these bills—see link to HR 3200 below, as of July 14 markup, as an example.  Some line items in the bill will be noted separately.

 

When you criticize lobbyists, as the naïve POTUS does, with political expediency, keep in mind, there is not one person in these United States who is not represented by some lobbyist.  In each piece of legislation, without exception, you will have one set of lobbyists who want you to drop the soap [HR 3200] and the other set of lobbyists who are attempting to protect your interests.  In fact, every person in these United States has self-interest in every bill filed.  That’s why we have lobbyists.  That’s why every time BHO opens his mouth, the lobbyists laugh heartily.  He thinks he can hoodwink you.

 

Go ahead and laugh along with us; it is warranted.

Lobbyist

Dear Mr wolf

Dear Mr. Wolf, 

 

I am appalled at the rush-job attempt to push this Health Care "Reform" Plan through before 07/31/09.

 

$1.5 Trillion to insure 46 Million uninsured is $32,609 per uninsured persons. This presumes these 46 million are actually "uninsured,” which is not true; it’s less than half that number.

 

As a citizen of this Great Nation and the Commonwealth of VA, I am sickened at the burden we are building for our future generations. And I’m more disturbed at the destruction of liberty that I am witnessing.

 

My father escaped from communist Bulgaria at the age of 42 in the late 1950s with only the clothes on his back.  His father was a General in the Austria-Hungarian Empire.  When the communists took over, they took everything away from him and his family.  He tried to succeed there, but every time he got to a certain point, he was 'asked' to join the 'party'.  When he refused due to his non-political nature he was terminated.  It did not take long for him to realize that if he were to succeed, the only was to come to America.  He got his degree in Civil Engineering from George Washington University, while working 2 or 3 jobs, and with grants and loans.  Not only did he pay back the loans, but he paid back the grants too.  He wanted someone else to benefit from those funds, as he had.  He was also a member of Tau Beta Phi Engineering fraternity, which required unanimous approval to join. 

 

I grew up in Bethesda, MD. My mom stayed home and my dad worked at the Washington Gas Light Company. Life was not easy for a 45 yr old, starting over with a foreign born wife and a young daughter.  We went without a lot, but we never thought to complain.  We were in America, the land of opportunity, where you just had to get an education and work hard. 

 

Thanks to my father's sacrifice, I’ve been graced with the abundance of opportunities available to hard-working individuals in this country. I work hard. I make good money; I pay my taxes (LOTS of them!) I save for a rainy day, for my own retirement, etc. I have health insurance, and I have NO issues with it. I go to whatever doctor I want, whenever I want, and my health records are not government property.

 

My father LEFT a country of communists that took over from Czars and Czarinas.  He must be SPINNING in his grave to know that the country he made such sacrifices to become a citizen of, has now adopted those titles as a matter of course.

 

When the WH says that I can keep my private health care plan, it’s not setting realistic expectations. Taxes will increase, and many employers will be forced to increase employee-paid premiums or not offer private insurance at all, then we will all be on government-run health care, which in my opinion is the goal.

 

It will kill small businesses. If we slap more taxes on the small businesses that drive the economy, they will simply raise prices, lay-off people, or just shut their doors.

 

This plan is NOT what the people want, contrary to what the WH is saying, and it’s surely not what the people need. It’s embarrassing.

 

Any and all of my future votes in upcoming elections will be most-determined by votes for/against stimulus plan(s) and this horrid health care reform plan.

 

Thank you for your time. Please listen to the citizens of your district and represent us the way we want to be represented.

 

Sincerely,

Barbara Nemechek
