Video of Obama in 2003 saying he wants single payer communist medicine but warning they need to get the House, Senate and Presidency to do it. Um, Mr. President, you have them. So why not just say that is what you want not and get it done?
Seriously why is it so hard for Obama and the Democrats to just come out and admit that they want a socialist style health care system? Liberals cannot stop telling people how great the idea is so you would think if things are so amazingly awesome and without lines and rationing in countries that already have it, they would be on television every five minutes showing us and saying, “We are so excited to bring this to you!”
Where are the millions of British and Canadian citizens racing to tell us how wonderful the system is? I have known many Canadians and several people from Britain. They all cannot stand their health care systems or the massive taxes that go to pay for them. They complain about the price of things over here too but love the service they receive and the technology they find here. I have sat through dozens of, “Yeah when I was young I had this accident or sickness. It was never treated and ever singe then…”
Why is the television not filled up with testimony and statistics that disprove what I have heard? We have two major industrial nations with the system liberals want, yet aside from the skewed propaganda films of Michael Moore we never see happy dancing Canadians and British citizens telling us why it is so great. Is there something going on I don’t know about?
Liberals also cannot stop telling us how American’s are demanding health care reform in numbers so massive it is impossible to ignore. If so many people are on board the Government health care wagon, why is it so hard for the President to say what he said in 2003? Was he lying in 2003? Is he lying now? Did something change to make him not embrace a single payer system other than political viability? I thought he was post-partisan and was going to do what was right not just what was politically expedient! Why was single payer never even discussed as an option?
If you take what the President and Democrats are doing and try and square it with their past rhetoric or any of their arguments, well, it is impossible to fit the pieces together. Many of these politicians and Party loyalists loved the idea of single payer until they took control. Now they are fighting it at or not even acknowledging the possibility. So either they are up to something or they have sold out their principals or they never had principals to begin with and were just paying lip service to liberals.
One thing is certain, 2003 Obama wanted single payer health care and believed it was right. Why did 2009 Obama not even let the possibility of such a system be debated or really explored?
