September 21st, 2009
No comments

With the selection of Barack Obama as the first black Democratic nominee for president seeming more possible by the day, racists and white supremacists are posting increasingly ugly and even threatening remarks on the Internet.

[1] obama.jpeg“OBAMA WILL DIE, KKK FOREVER,” concludes a [2] Feb. 15 post by “Rodney” to a blog run by a person identified only as Strider333. Above that signoff, Rodney wrote: “The KKK or someone WILL assassinate Obama! If we get a NIGGER President all you NIGGER’s [sic] will think you’ve won and that the WHITE people will have to bow to you……….”

CHECKING FOR RELIABLE SOURCES; NOT OPINION…

Truthorfiction.com, snopes.com, and factcheck.org are websites you can use to try to verify something. They are not infallible but try to get at the source of whether it is true or not.  Sometimes they give their own opinions which may or may not be true.
 
I sent you the website because there are some answers that we all are looking for.  OBAMA ONLY GAVE A BROAD OUT LINE, BUT IT IS THE CONGRESS WHO IS WRITING THE BILL.  It has input from democrats, republicans, and independents.
 
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE BILL WILL NOT BE FINAL UNTIL IT GOES THROUGH BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS, IS DEBATED ON, AMENDED AND AGREED TO BY BOTH HOUSES.
 
Remember, our congresspeople are our employees.  I hope we all will call or email them and 
 
LET THEM SPECIFICALLY KNOW WHAT WE LIKE AND DON’T LIKE ABOUT THAT PART OF THE BILL.  IF WE DON’T THEN IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE WE GET ANY HEALTH-CARE REFORM. WITHOUT UNIVERSAL HEALTH-CARE THE 50 MILLION AND GROWING UNINSURED WILL CONTINUE GOING TO THE EMERGENCY ROOMS WHICH RAISES ALL OUR PREMIUMS WHICH WILL COST US MORE THAT PROVIDING HEALTH-CARE FOR EVERYONE, RIGHT?

GOP DENYS APPROVAL OF UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE TO RECEIVE MILLIONS FROM FOR PROFIT INSURANCE COS.

LORD, HELP THOSE WHO BELIEVE THE LIES OF THOSE (mainly politicians) WHO ARE PAID MILLIONS TO SAY THAT WE DON’T NEED A NON-PROFIT HEALTHCARE SYSTEM THAT COVERS EVERYONE, TO SUPPORT A 30% PROFIT SYSTEM THAT CAN RAISE OUR PREMIUMS AND NOT ALLOW THE COVERAGE WE NEED.
 
HELP THEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS BETTER TO HAVE SOME KIND OF HEALTHCARE THAN BEING DENIED ANY.

    If race were the only issue, there would be much less hyperventilation about Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr.‘s unpleasant run-in with the criminal justice system. After all, it would hardly be the first time a black man had unjustly been hauled to jail by a white police officer. The debate—really more of a shouting match—is also about power and entitlement.

    This is a new twist. Since the triumph of the civil rights movement, minorities have been moving up the ladder in politics, business, academia, just about every field. Only in the past decade, however, has a sizable cohort of African-Americans and Latinos broken through to the tiny upper echelons where real power is exercised.

    I’m talking about President Obama, obviously, but also Citigroup Chairman Richard Parsons, entertainment mogul Oprah Winfrey, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor and many others—a growing number of minorities with the kind of serious power that used to be reserved for whites only. In academia, the list begins with “Skip” Gates.

    He’s a superstar, one of the best-known and most highly acclaimed faculty members at the nation’s most prestigious university. A few years ago, when he made noises about leaving, Harvard moved heaven and earth to keep him. The incident that led to his arrest occurred as he was coming home from the airport after a trip to China for his latest PBS documentary. Following the traumatic encounter, he repaired to Martha’s Vineyard to recuperate. This is how the man rolls.

NOW OR NEVER?

We are in an emergency situation where 47 mil. American families including children are without health care, 10s of millions more are being denied and canceled because of their health, and increasing numbers (500,000 losing their jobs a month without health care) are in dire situations because of no health care.  Many 1000s a month are dying because of lack of health care.
 
What would Jesus do?  In depression times crime, suicides and death rates increase.  We have been waiting on health care change since 1994 because white male anglosaxon conservatives opposed an intelligent lady who was trying to bring about health care reform.
 
The American Ship is sinking because we are not looking out for those who have no hope (AS JESUS TAUGHT US).  We must respond no matter what the cost for now so we can save as many as possible while we reform the system.  OUR GREATEST OPPOSITION ARE OUR REPRESENTATIVES WHO ARE TAKING MILLIONS FROM LOBBYISTS TO PROTECT THEIR 30% PROFITS OF INSURANCE COMPANIES (Medicare’s overhead is 3%).
WE HAVE SPENT ALL THESE BILLIONS TO FIGHT A COUNTRY WHO WAS NOT A THREAT TO US (in the former administration we lost over 3,000 lives because the former administration was not at the switch and 10s of thousands of lives because our former president claimed he was ordained by God and was going after the man who tried to assassinate his father).
 
I COULD GO ON BUT THE IDEA THAT WE HAVE TO WAIT TO PROVIDE A BETTER HEALTH PLAN BEFORE WE REFORM IS VERY SUSPICIOUS OF THOSE POLITICIANS WHO STATE THAT.  I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT IF I HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER, FRIEND OR NEIGHBOR (”DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU”) COME HELL OR HIGH WATER, LOSS OF REPUTATION, POSSESSIONS, ETC., I AM GOING TO DO WHAT JESUS TAUGHT ME TO DO.
