Health Care Reform?

Health care reform should not be used as an opportunity to use federal funds to pay for elective abortions. Health reform should be an opportunity to protect human life - not end it.

Unfortunately, Speaker Pelosi’s 2,032-page government takeover of health care does just that. On line 17, p. 110, section 222 under “Abortions for which Public Funding is Allowed” the Health and Human Services Secretary is given the authority to determine when abortion is allowed under the government-run plan. The Speaker’s plan also requires that at least one insurance plan offered in the Exchange covers abortions.

What is even more alarming is that a monthly abortion premium will be charged of all enrollees in the government-run plan. It’s right there on line 16, page 96, section 213, under “Insurance Rating Rules.” The premium will be paid into a U.S. Treasury account - and these federal funds will be used to pay for the abortion services.

Section 213 describes the process in which the Health Benefits Commissioner is to assess the monthly premiums that will be used to pay for elective abortions under the government-run plan. The Commissioner must charge at a minimum $1 per enrollee per month.

A majority of Americans believe that health care plans should not be mandated to provide elective abortion coverage, and a majority of Americans do not believe government health care plans should include abortion coverage. Currently, federal appropriations bills include language known as the Hyde Amendment that prohibits the use of federal funds to pay for elective abortions under the Medicare and Medicaid programs, while another provision, known as the Smith Amendment, prohibits federal funding of abortion under the federal employees’ health benefits plan.

Speaker Pelosi’s 2,032-page health care monstrosity is an affront to the American people and drastically moves away from current policy. The American people deserve more from their government than being forced to pay for abortion.

House Republicans are offering a common-sense, responsible solution that would reduce health care costs and expand access while protecting the dignity of all human life. The Republican plan, available at HealthCare.GOP.gov, would codify the Hyde Amendment and prohibit all authorized and appropriated federal funds from being used to pay for abortion. And under the Republican plan, any health plan that includes abortion coverage may not receive federal funds.

Trick or Treat, from Bob

That's right. This year Uncle Bob is going as an illegal alien.

Bob will show up on your doorstep, full of disease, expecting that you'll take full care of him. Food, drink, health care, and retiremnent.

And you will. Thank you very much. You see, via the Government's lack of policy towards the illegal aliens you are paying for healthcare, etc through 'hidden' taxes.

And I just might mow your lawn. Or piss on it. It doesnt' really mattert to us illegals. We get paid just the same.

WWJS ???

What Would Jed Say ?

Uncle Bob was in his hottub the other day when an epiphany came to him thinking about this great Country, where we are, where we came from, and where we are headed. A mere 30 years ago, Uncle Jed, Clampett that is, was a real man. And today, he'd be the target of the Obama Administration.

Look at this from Uncle Bob's goggles.

Thirty years ago, Jed was a poor mountaineer. By all accounts of the day, barely kept his family fed. Yet he'd head to the hill's, totting his rifle looking for a tasty varmint for Granny to fricassee. Doing what had to be done to take care of his family. Jed wasn't waiting for meals on wheels or any other damn government program. In fact, what with Granny's still, the government was looked upon suspiciously (as they should). Then one day, while shootin at some food, up from the ground come a bubbling crude. For your liberal greenies, that's oil. Black gold. Texas tea.

Well, the next thing you knew, Ole Jed was a millionaire. You see, Jed had the mineral rights to the ground he was hunting on. Jed and his new wealth moved his family out of the conditions they were in and moved to Cali-forn-i-a (as Arnold would say). Jed's wealth pumped new tax revenue into the economy, property values increased, development and investment in the local economy skyrocketed.

But today, in Barry's America....


Well, ole Jed would have been on the dole for some time. Gettin paid to stay home, not look for work. Jed would be told how evil business' were and how they had put him in this position. And who supports business? Republicans.

Going out w/that gun??? I don't think so Jed. Not after an expensive permit, training course, and 5 day waiting period. And once Jed had secured the anti-gun lobby's permission, watch out for the environmentalist wako's. See that crude Jed found had to have covered a yellow-bellied sapsucker or two. Tsk tsk.

So, no hope, no gun, no crude, no tax revenue, no expansion.

I haven't even mentioned Jed's mode of transportation. Algore is still calculating the Clampett's carbon foot print.

What Would Jed Say.....PIT-T-FULL.

What Would Uncle Bob Say....we need to get back to the old days when Jed Clampett was a hero and not a villain.

Obama...Not like Hitler???

A lot has been said out there about the Socialist practices of Dear Leader Barry.

I must agree w/the liberals that take offense to such suggestions.

But not why you might think.

You see, Hitler got the Olympics for Berlin.

So can we please move past the Obama like Hitler references and have Peace (ahem) in our time?

Pig Flu My Ass

The following was a news article Uncle Bob just saw. I haven't blogged in a while and there's a lot of crap out there for Bob to go off on. And the media hysteria on this Pig Flu is one.

Read the article below. He thinks he contracted the Pig Flu via biking 25 miles in the rain and then dancing all night at a birthday party??? Maybe if he was dancing with Elton John or using Elton as his bike seat.

The story...


Early Show" host Harry Smith has taken a sick day from work, telling viewers he thinks he may have swine flu.

In an interview live from his New York City apartment Monday, Smith told CBS viewers he started feeling achy and feverish over the weekend after a 25-mile bike ride in the rain and dancing all night at a birthday party.

"Early Show" medical correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton said Smith could be right because his symptoms are associated with swine flu. She praised him for staying home and out of circulation.

Dr. Ashton, who was in the studio Monday morning, along with Maggie Rodriguez, told Smith that he had done the right thing for staying home, and protecting his co-workers.

Ashton said most swine flu cases are mild. She predicted Smith will be back on the "Early Show" couch in a couple of days.

The nation's first round of swine flu shots could begin sooner than expected, with some vaccine available as early as the first week of October, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Sunday.

According to the CDC, there is flu activity in all 50 states and 98 percent of the viruses going around the country right now are the H1N1 virus.

Symptoms of swine flu can include fever, cough, congestion, aches, chills, diarrhea and vomiting.


Media hype. Thanks Harry. He's praised for staying home. No, Uncle Bob praises Harry for being the complete frick'n idiot that he is and exposing the rest of us his idiociy. Take 4 sleeping pills and a 5th of vodka and let me know how you are felling in the morning Harry.

Moron.

Channelling

Yea, I'm sure she doesn't want to be Channelling the Horn Dog in Chief. She's in Africa, promoting Women's issues.

Slick Willy is back in Vegas throwing himself a Happy 63rd bday party. While he not promoting Women's issues, Uncle Bob's guess is that he's probing Women's issues.

Did Uncle Bob mention Mrs. Clinton reminds him of a 1st and 2nd Ex-wife??

Obama IN HIS OWN WORDS

Uncle Bob is not posting this as an insurance agent concerned about his business. Uncle Bob is posting this because he is concerned about his Country. We just can't let this 'reform' pass as it is designed by the Socialist(s) in the White House and in Congress. Pay attention to the real news, do your own googling and research. The mainstream media is only taking dictation for Obama and the boys, there is very little actual journalism, you know the watchdog media, happening out there anymore.
