The REAL Villains in Health Care Crisis
By John W. Lillpop
Once again, Shrieker Nancy Pelosi has demonstrated, conclusively, why a woman's place is in the home, but should NEVER be in the US House.
This time the issue is the so-called health care crisis. The Obama administration, with the aid and support of leftist ding bats like Pelosi and Harry Reid, is working frantically to do for health care what they did to the automobile industry and the economy in general.
Which is, to make a bad situation intolerably worse while wasting trillions of dollars of taxpayer money.
So far, the left's "stimulus" has stimulated one thing and one thing only: The federal deficit, which has exploded since Barack Obama took power on that dark and dreary day back in January.
As Obama's approval ratings continue to drop ominously (now below 50 percent) and headed further south, liberals are looking for a scapegoat to blame for the Messiah's dwindling influence and unraveling presidency.
Shrieker Pelosi obligated with a foolish charade in which she attempted to blame America's health care issues on greedy insurance companies.
As reported, in part, at Wordpress:
"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) brought out the new message in an exchange with reporters in the Capitol, when she said, ‘They are the villains in this’,” Mike Soraghan wrote July 30 at The Hill
"That’s going to be hard to sell in the reality-based world. As Soraghan reported, the “attack comes even though the health insurance industry hasn’t attacked President Obama’s plan or the legislation being hammered out in Congress.”

The REAL villains, of course, are liberal extremists like Pelosi and Obama who refuse to secure America's borders, which is why there as many as 20 million illegal aliens in the nation right now.
Illegal aliens generally use health care services for which they cannot pay and which are ultimately paid for by the American people. Countless hospitals have been forced out of business because of the federal mandate that requires them to serve people who have no right to be here and whom have no ability or desire to pay for services received.
Rather than deporting illegal aliens and forcing Mexico to deal with the health of its own citizens, Obama and Pelosi want to grant amnesty to the invading criminals, which will only encourage tens of millions more to come here illegally in search of free health care and other costly amenities which will be added to the federal deficit.
Leftists also support unchecked power for large labor unions that demand exorbitant pay and benefits for members with minimal skills. Rich but unsustainable retirement plans are also a product of leftist malfeasance that drive health care costs through the ceiling.
Last, but not least, is the left's absolute refusal to support tort reform needed to keep ambulance chasers like John Edwards from getting rich at the expense of the American people with outrageous litigation against medical doctors and other health care service providers.
As painful as the experience would be, Nancy Pelosi needs to take a look in the mirror to discover one of the real "villains" of the health care crisis!
