Obama’s plan calls for Medicare and Medicaid cuts against seniors and a Federal Government board to require justification for medical treatments for seniors. This is another attempt like the one he tried to hide in his health care bill and reminiscent of the “death squads.” In his repeated attempts to deny or curtail senior medical care, he is making it abundantly clear that he wants those of us who still remember who is really in charge of this government to dry up and blow away… the sooner the better.
But, it only gets worse.
Thursday, Obama delivered some of his harshest criticism yet about his recent battle with Republicans to fund the government in FY2011. It appears that he did not intend for everybody to hear him. While listening to an audio feed from a Chicago fundraiser Thursday night, CBS News reporter Mark Knoller heard Obama speaking with donors after other reporters had left the room. The president really opened up about his disdain for the recent GOP pushback:
- "I said, 'You want to repeal health care? Go at it. We'll have that debate. You're not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget. You think we're stupid?'" Obama reportedly said. He also complained about GOP attempts to attach a bill to the resolution to fund the government that would defund Planned Parenthood.
- "Put it in a separate bill," the president said he told House Speaker John Boehner and his staff. "We'll call it up. And if you think you can overturn my veto, try it. But don't try to sneak this through."
- The president also made it clear he is no fan of Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the GOP's Budget Committee chairman. "When Paul Ryan says his priority is to make sure, he's just being America's accountant ... This is the same guy that voted for two wars that were unpaid for, voted for the Bush tax cuts that were unpaid for, voted for the prescription drug bill that cost as much as my health care bill--but wasn't paid for," Obama reportedly said.
In the meantime, America’s seniors are madder than hell.
That’s MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
