Four Things I Learned From MR. Obama's Health Care Oration.

Let's see, I didn't take notes and I'm sure that I blacked out at some point during anointed one's speech, but I do recall a few points.
  1. Mr. Obama believes that one of the reasons health insurance premiums are so high is because of excessive overhead and PROFITS generated by those insidious insurance companies. What is Mr. Obama's fix for that? Well by gosh, they should compete with a government run NOT FOR PROFIT health insurance provider. You betcha, that will teach those evil insurance companies how to be efficient. Give me a break.
  2. Mr. Obama believes in competition. He said so. He points out that in far too many states there are too few insurance companies to provide real competition. He believes the way to fix that is to install a a single government run health insurance provider to allow choice. But Mr. Obama is not for allowing the American people to buy health insurance across state lines! No way sir, he will not do that because it would instill real competition to bring down costs without increasing the reach of the Federal Government. Give Me a Break.
  3. Mr. Obama believes the Federal Government which means you and I, your wife, your brothers and sisters, uncles, aunts, kids, and grand-kids can pay for insuring some 30 million people through eliminating waste in medicare and medicade. He actually believes that this can be done without increasing the debt. What? How? Like instilling the efficiency of the Post Office, or Am Track, or GM, or Chrysler, or Freddie and Fannie into his new health care take over government agency? Give me a break.
  4. Mr. Obama really believes that WE THE PEOPLE are stupid. Well I have news for Mr. Obama; Stupid resides on the other side of the teleprompter.
