SARAH PALIN: ‘Obama Lies, Freedom Dies’

SARAH PALIN: ‘Obama Lies, Freedom Dies’

 

ABCNEWS – Obama says ObamaCare is NOT a tax, Supreme Court let’s it survive as a tax:

STEPHANOPOULOS:  You were against the individual mandate…

OBAMA:  Yes.

STEPHANOPOULOS:  …during the campaign.  Under this mandate, the government is forcing people to spend money, fining you if you don’t. How is that not a tax?

OBAMA:  Well, hold on a second, George. Here — here’s what’s happening.  You and I are both paying $900, on average — our families — in higher premiums because of uncompensated care.  Now what I’ve said is that if you can’t afford health insurance, you certainly shouldn’t be punished for that.  That’s just piling on. If, on the other hand, we’re giving tax credits, we’ve set up an exchange, you are now part of a big pool, we’ve driven down the costs, we’ve done everything we can and you actually can afford health insurance, but you’ve just decided, you know what, I want to take my chances.  And then you get hit by a bus and you and I have to pay for the emergency room care, that’s…

STEPHANOPOULOS:  That may be, but it’s still a tax increase.

OBAMA:  No.  That’s not true, George.  The — for us to say that you’ve got to take a responsibility to get health insurance is absolutely not a tax increase.

“you can pretty much put their campaign on, on a tweet and have some characters to spare.” Obama

“you can pretty much put their campaign on, on a tweet and have some characters to spare.” – President Obama, June 12, 2012

 

The President is right, it doesn’t take many characters to say things like “Freedom vs Socialism, the choice is clear.”  The concept of freedom has been around for centuries, while the power-hungry always search for ways to hold on to their power.

California is where they invented Facebook – CA Gov. Jerry Brown

California Governor Jerry Brown: We’re very entrepreneurial, very innovative and people are still coming here. this is where they put in– invented Facebook. Not in Texas. Not in Arizona. Not in Manhattan. And certainly not under the — you know, the White House, Congress. This is still the wild west and we’ll prove to the rest of the country and the world that we know how to do it.

CHARLIE ROSE: Facebook was invented in Cambridge, Mass.

BROWN: Well, whatever is invented, this is where they are. You guys say — they probably might do a little bit in their laboratory, but they learn fast to get on a plane and get out to California.

OOPS.

Last year, almost 1,800 people renounced their U.S. citizenship or handing in their Green Cards.

(Reuters) – A year ago, in Action Comics, Superman declared plans to renounce his U.S. citizenship.

Last year, almost 1,800 people followed Superman’s lead, renouncing their U.S. citizenship or handing in their Green Cards. That’s a record number since the Internal Revenue Service began publishing a list of those who renounced in 1998. It’s also almost eight times more than the number of citizens who renounced in 2008, and more than the total for 2007, 2008 and 2009 combined.

Obama care is Unconstitutional

Anyone who has read the Constitution, the Federalist Papers, Anti-Federalist Papers and other historical documents knows that Obama Care is Unconstitutional.  That much is completely clear.  The question is whether the Supreme Court will rule it so or whether the power-hungry politicians have put enough of their ilk in the Court to vote with them.

The Constitution is not a document of “compromise”.  It is a document of absolutes.

The Constitution was written as a document of enumerated powers and not enumerated liberties for a reason.  Since the early 1900s power-hungry people have wanted to corrupt that fine divide away in order to take freedom away from the citizens and concentrate it with an elite.

You are free or your are not.  There is no way to compromise on it unless you want to compromise your freedom away.
The people who want “compromise” today between the parties today are dupes, or complicit in eroding our Constitutionally guaranteed freedom.  One does not compromise with ones destroyers.  One fights for freedom or becomes chattel.
