The moment exists, in all of us, when you see something, hear something, sense something, and, without being consciously aware of it, you say to yourself, yet out loud:
“What the hell are they talking about?!”
Such a moment has now come for millions of Americans, after the twisted editorial in USA TODAY by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD).
The editorial, entitled, “Un-American attacks can’t derail health care debate” is a hit piece at Americans who disagree with Forced Universal Health Care. Poorly wrapped in the guise of being a primer as to why there should be Forced Universal Health Care, the editorial is an attack on everyday Americans who, of their own volition, go to town hall meetings and let their voices be heard.
Speaker Pelosi and Rep. Hoyer are still pushing a party line that is failing. They state in their article, quite amazingly, that there are, “….Americans strongly supporting health insurance reform.” Yet a Rasmussen poll disagrees with their assessment. Also disagreeing with them is the massive attendance at the Town Halls. It is this level of disagreement that forces the Speaker to write an editorial in USA TODAY to make their case. If a majority of Americans agreed with the Speaker and the Majority Leader, would they have wasted their time writing the editorial in the first place?
The issue with the hit piece, however, is the assumption that those who disagree are Un-American. It was just the other day that Sen. Boxer (D-CA) claimed that those who attend the town halls in disagreement are part of the “Brooks Brothers” brigade – too well dressed to be seen as serious. Then, it was Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) who referred to those who disagree with him, and voice their opinions, as a mob. Then, it was Speaker Pelosi who declared that those who disagree with Forced Universal Health Care have been showing up with swastikas. (To date, she has provided no proof of this claim.) And now, the hit piece in USA TODAY.
Millions of Americans are forced to ask aloud, “What the hell are they talking about?”
If support existed for Forced Universal Health Care, it would have passed. All of the town halls in the world could not have stopped it. Speaker Pelosi, and her fellow Democrats, control the House, the Senate and the White House. If they believe so strongly in it, if Americans believe so strongly in it, they could pass it right now. Nothing can stop them.
So why all the histrionics? Why the constant attacks, and foolhardy double speak? (The Tea Party protestors are both rednecks AND members of the Brooks Brother’s Brigade? Hey Statists, compare your talking points, and get back to us. OK?)
It’s simple: America does not want Forced Universal Health Care. They don’t believe in government control of healthcare, and they do not believe that Congress has the best interests of the people in mind. Want proof? We’re in the middle of a recession, and Speaker Pelosi is spending $500 million for luxury jets. The Speaker is completely out of touch, and proves it everyday. She is out of touch regarding Forced Universal Health Care. America is speaking loudly – and that is what bothers her (and the rest of Congress, regardless of their side of the aisle) the most. Our “leaders” have lost the ability to control the people, as the people are starting to remember who they are.
Americans who have forgotten their roots are beginning to realize the history that precedes them. They remember that Liberty and Freedom are not just words in the dictionary, but ideals that must be worked for and fought for. They don’t believe that government is the answers to their problems. They believe in a small government of, by and for the people. They believe in Capitalism, and free markets.
And many of them have been seeing something, hearing something, sensing something, and, have become consciously aware of it. And now they say it to their Representatives, their Senators, and the Administration, out loud:
“What the hell are you talking about?”
