I haven't read the entire email yet, I have to go in a minute, but I felt the need to comment on something.
And we've all heard the charge that reform will somehow bring about a government takeover of health care. I know that sounds scary to many folks. It sounds scary to me, too.
He talks of speaking honestly, but then says something like this. Does anyone actually believe him? After all, this is coming from the guy who strong armed GM and now has the .gov with a controlling stake in the company. I think we can all agree that he has spoken through his actions, that bigger government is what he is shooting for. He wants nothing more than government control. To say otherwise is an outright lie, in my opinion.
Wait a minute, because the government took control of a single bankrupt car company comprising a tiny, tiny fraction of the US economy, with stated plans to divest themselves of it in the shortest possible period of time, you think that he's attempting to take over the entirety of the US health care industry. Doesn't that seem a little silly to you?
I wish he were talking about a single payer system to take over the US health care industry, by the evidence available that's by far the best system. He's not though, and to say that he is, is dishonest.
In short I genuinely wish he WERE lying to you, but there's simply no evidence for that.
He IS lying to us, about mostly everything.
As others have stated in this thread, with the bill as it currently is, illegal immigrants WILL be covered, as you will not be able to deny care to ANYONE. Would you care to defend that point?
You contend that Obama never lies. I contend that he has and does and based on previous lies, that he is going to lie about a lot more. One specific instance outlined above.
Obama claims illegals will not get health care in this bill. But as many have already pointed out, this bill specifically allows ANYONE including illegals to receive health care. Furthermore, it makes it so that you cannot deny care to the illegals.
Defend that and then we can talk about the more complicated lies you claim are truths.
