Hey, I thought Dems were against Corporations making political pronouncements!

Who else?  Who DON’T we know about?

As I mentioned here, it seems that the Federal Government has such a vested interest in Obamacare that they are willing to go after “the most vulnerable amongst us” – our children.  Just another example of Liberals using the Government Schools in The Cause of Progressive Outcomes?  Fer sure, dudes!

I also remember when Obama decided, during the 2010 State of the Union Address, politically attack the Supreme Court for its Citizens United decision:

“Last week, the Supreme Court reversed a century of law[58] to open the floodgates for special interests — including foreign corporations — to spend without limit in our elections. Well I don’t think American elections should be bankrolled by America’s most powerful interests, or worse, by foreign entities.”

This from the guy that has received more from corporate interests (including unions, I might add), yet Justice Alito was the one who was castigated for merely shaking his head “No”.  Democrats went nuts and we still keep hearing from them that a Constitutional Amendment MUST be passed to silence those evil corporations (“but unions are merely collections of individuals, so they should have the right to speak out” – of course, because 99% of their effort is solidly Democrat).   Silenced, because that is all the Left knows in how to win arguments.  After all, that is how Obama got his start in Chicago – simply by silencing his opposition one candidate at a time, one after another (which is why he is now trying to silence the Religious – his biggest rival for the “peoples’ hearts” – and Freedom).

Except when they kneel before him – knavishly trying to curry political favor from Big Government in its role of dishing out taxpayer money or privilege via Crony Capitalism (e.g., “reward our friends and punish our enemies).  Thus, what way to better curry favor than to help Obamacare become the success the President and HHS Secretary Sebelius need for Obamacare (e.g., sign up the young serfs to pay for levels of healthcare insurance

Sidenote: can we stop with the charade now?

There IS no more “healthcare insurance” under Obamacare – it is a highly regulated, highly politicized healthcare payment system.  No less, no more.  There is no more doctor-patient privilege no matter how the Government lies to you and through their teeth – NOTHING happens without the Obamacare database system (which will make the NSA look like a desktop DB in comparison with respect to knowing ALL there is to know about each and every American).

for the senior citizen as long IPAB (“Death Panel”) determines that your life is worth spending other peoples’ money on you.  They know that if not enough people sign up, this will implode just as fast as some of HUDs “dense housing projects” when they have been judged to be flops (i.e., a lesson to the unwise in the Perfect Planning Capability boasted about by Granite State Future that aims to turn NH into nothing less than a bunch of urban housing projects).

Consistency?  First they slam the Supreme Court of the United States for allowing the Evil Corporations for speaking in the Political Arena – but as soon as they see a need for them, well, the Obama Administration says “hey, c’mon board!”    Trustworthy?  Consistent with philosophy?  No to the first as the end, in true Alinsky fashion, always justifies the end and no morality need apply.  Consistent with that philosophy – yes.  Consistent with their stated word?  No.  And in many cases, like with the Illegal Alien Amnesty and Legalization bill just passed by the US Senate, Republicans be right their with them.

But how HAS Citizens United worked out otherwise?  Remember that Target gave money to a Conservative a while ago – and Target in MN certainly turned tail as the Democrat hyenas went in for the kill to make them learn a lesson.  Lesson?  You can talk FOR us – but never, EVER, talk against us.

I am glad to see that the House GOP decided to send out their own letters asking if they’d be participating – two should be playing this game.

    Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
