Guest guest Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Mathew Staver, Founder and Chairman Liberty Counsel President Obama is demanding a vote on healthcare reform by March 18th - just 10 days from now! He is in full campaign mode and has launched the most aggressive round of Chicago-style politics we have yet seen. See below. - Mat Doc, President Obama is back on the campaign trail in a last-ditch effort to drum up support for his increasingly unpopular healthcare "reform" package. Appearing in various cities over the next several days, the President is putting on a series of contrived meetings in front of heavily partisan and select audiences in order to persuade the public that ObamaCare is good for America. It will be political theater at its best (or worst, in this case). Meanwhile, the President is pressing uneasy lawmakers to show political "courage" and not let a historic opportunity pass them by. But real political courage would be for our politicians to stand for the Constitution and represent their constituents! Obama's renewed stumping comes on the heels of a new poll revealing that only 25% of Americans think the country is headed in the right direction. This mirrors other recent polls showing only 25% of Americans now support ObamaCare. In other words, the President is asking lawmakers to take a huge political fall for a governmental takeover of our healthcare system that 75% of Americans oppose! Even worse, he has set the "countdown clock" for a do-or-die, kamikaze congressional vote using the highly inappropriate "reconciliation" procedure. The House is to vote (according to Obama's dictate) in just TEN DAYS... And then just one week later, the Senate is supposed to pass a so-called "reconciliation" bill... So that Congress can subserviently bring the desired bill to his desk for his Presidential signature... And just like that, ObamaCare is to be the law of the land! ++Not on our watch! ObamaCare was bad for America last week - and it will be bad for America on March 18th! It still has an abortion mandate, a personal participation mandate, and yet-to-be determined costs that are certain to be well beyond a trillion dollars. But you know all of that, as do 75% of your fellow Americans who are thoroughly SICK of this arrogant, condescending attempt to ram ObamaCare care down the nation's throat! Here's what I'm asking you to do right now: FIRST... FAX your elected officials! Your Senators and Representative - and other key members of Congress - need to hear YOUR voice during the next ten days as never before. Believe me, our elected officials are going to be hearing PLENTY from the White House arm-twisters and the fanatic members of Organizing for America (OfA), radical labor unions, and MoveOn.org. And as I have mentioned before, the Leftists are emphasizing their "Virtual March on Washington" with growing intensity. http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=25854 & CID=310 & RID=23692218 If you prefer, we always encourage you to send your own faxes. We have provided all the information you need to reach Senators here: http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=25855 & CID=310 & RID=23692218 SECOND... Please call your two Senators and your Representative and tell them what you think about the President's campaign tactics. ++Chicago-style bullying and renewed arm-twisting. Not surprisingly, the backroom deals, threats, political pressure and all the unsavory practices that characterized the last big push for ObamaCare are back in full operation. Rep. Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY), who announced his resignation last Friday (he initially claimed health problems, but an investigation by the House ethics committee was also in play), now says he was the victim of a power play by Democrat leaders who wanted him out of Congress because he was a "no" vote on health care reform! Massa says, "And now they've gotten rid of me, and it will pass. You connect the dots." Of course, the Democrat leadership has rejected Massa's statements out of hand, but other such events are surfacing as the pressure mounts for passage. Like this curious coincidence: Last week, President Obama appointed Scott Matheson to a federal judgeship. Scott's brother, Jim Matheson (D-UT), earlier voted "no" to ObamaCare. Now Rep. Matheson is listed as "undecided." Again, Democrats angrily reject any attempt to link these events. What further "unconnected" events will we see between now and the March 18? What disgraceful practices have been effectively hidden from view? Now is the time to let our elected officials know that this anti-life, unconstitutional bill has been overwhelmingly rejected by the American people! Join our fax barrage and help notify these lawmakers that THEY WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=25856 & CID=310 & RID=23692218 ++There is no life in ObamaCare. Last week we learned that Rep. Bart Stupak and 11 other Democrats WILL NOT vote for the Senate-passed version because of language that permits the federal government to "directly subsidize abortions." This was good news for pro-life advocates and those who realize that there is an "abortion mandate" intrinsic to ObamaCare. That's also one of the major reasons why, once again, I'm asking you to take a stand. Our FAX BARRAGE specifically targets key pro-life-leaning Democrats who need to hear from citizens right now! We cannot allow this anti-life bill to pass! I need thousands of pro-life patriotic Americans to continue our massive FAX BARRAGE to flood Congress with a crystal clear message: "NO TO OBAMACARE!" THANK YOU if you have responded to an earlier campaign. I thank God for clear-thinking, patriotic citizens like you! Yet we must keep up the pressure even if it means going the extra mile and sending repeated messages! Please go here now to schedule faxes to Congress: http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=25857 & CID=310 & RID=23692218 The clock is ticking. President Obama has set the alarm for March 18. Your voice MUST be heard. Together, we will send a LOUD AND CLEAR message that the vast majority of Americans oppose this anti-life, anti-family, unaffordable bill... and will hold Congress fully accountable if it is foisted upon us! Thank you for standing with us, Mathew Staver, Founder and Chairman Liberty Counsel P.S. Don't let the clock run out on this chance to right the course on healthcare. The next few days are crucial in countering any potential momentum shift. Tell your elected officials that their careers will not survive a vote for the so-called "President's Plan" or any other version of ObamaCare. Please send your faxes today, even if this is your second, third, fourth, or even greater number of times to join in. Again, thank you, and God bless America! + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Note: Please do not "reply" directly to this e-mail message.
