A New Zealand point of view … in its entirety:
I have written this post to explain why President Obama is so desperate to pass health care legislation, seemingly regardless of the cost to the Democratic Party.
The reality is that President Obama owes his success and his hold on power more to three Marxist groups than he does to the Democrats.
The three organizations, Communist Party USA, Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism and Democratic Socialists of America, all worked with Barack Obama for years and helped get him elected.
Now they want payback.
All three organizations have campaigned hard for “socialized” or “Single Payer” health care.
They want Obama to pass a Bill, any Bill, so that they can then ratchet up the pressure until the government has complete control of the health sector.
Why? because these people figure that if government controls health care, it will lock socially conservative American workers into supporting their Democratic Party allies indefinitely.
Britain after WW2 is their model. While Winston Churchill was the hero of the hour, in 1946 he was dumped in a landslide in favor of Labour Party leader Clement Attlee, on the promise of a massively increased Welfare State and a socialized National Health Service.
Leading Communist Party USA theoretician Norman Markowitz put it this way in a November 2008 article in Political Affairs, entitled Obama’s Mandate for Change;
A “single payer” national health system – known as “socialized medicine” in the rest of the developed world – should be an essential part of the change that the core constituencies which elected Obama desperately need.Britain serves as an important political lesson for strategists. After the Labor Party established the National Health Service after World War II, supposedly conservative workers and low-income people under religious and other influences who tended to support the Conservatives were much more likely to vote for the Labor Party when health care, social welfare, education and pro-working class policies were enacted by labor-supported governments.

This chart was presented on Glenn Beck today. Obama bypasses Congress when he is blocked. Our country and our Constitution are in jeopardy.
Nancy Pelosi is reported to be scheduling a vote on the Slaughter rule: where a rule vote will consider the Senate bill a passed bill, WITH AMENDMENTS!
This is reported in last night’s RedState briefing under the ominous title: Constitution Be Damned – ObamaCare Vote Next Week.
If you haven’t been concerned about this very unsavory process up until now, you should be. The constitution is clear:
Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law.
If these maneuvers by the White House and Pelosi are pushed into the Senate, the Parliamentarian must rule them out of order.
At that point, Vice President Biden can overrule the Senate parliamentarian. As Charles Krauthammer states:
But if he does that, that’s not a nuclear option. That’s a thermonuclear option. That’s Krakatoa. That’s 100 megatons.
That will be a catastrophe if it is seen that the bill is pushed through by overruling a ruling of the neutral parliamentarian and passing what would otherwise be illegal.
Jimmy Gee made some scarey comments on the RedState Article:
I now understand why Obama used the State of the Union Address to ridicule the Supreme Court of the United States. He is trying to use Alinsky tactics to marginalize the Supreme Court of the United States; Obama knows full well that this unconstitutional power-grab will not stand and that they will be deciding on numerous parts of it this year. This will make the Gore/Bush election debacle look like a girl scout meeting!
As a nurse, I fear that once this becomes law, Obama, will soon after HCR is passed, will federalize all health care workers and put them under the SEIU. We will be forced to pay union dues to the SEIU.
Something else I fear. Someone is going to be killed in this mess. Some Senator, or Congressman will be shot at a town-hall, or even while out for pizza with their family. I fear something akin to the riots of the 1960’s.
But what I fear most, is that if the democrats get this bill through, and successfully pass it, they can, and will, do anything else they want to do.
But what they don’t understand is this; they see this as a means to continuous political power for how ever the United States exists. We, the people, see this as the death of the Constitution and the death of the United States.
Never corner a caged animal…you have not idea the fight in them!
This will end badly…
(Why Obama desperately wants to pass healthcare, and the help he gets from this guy.)
The number 1 visitor to the White House, according to public WH disclosures, is SEIU President Andy Stern.
Stern was recently appointed by President Obama to be a member of the 18 person commission to reduce the national debt.
How has the head of a radical labor union like SEUI been able be the number 1 lobbyist to Obama? He just didn’t register. BigGovernment.com reports that:
Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) and me [Brian Johnson], as Executive Director of the Alliance for Worker Freedom (AWF) formally requested an investigation by the acting United States Attorney Channing D. Phillips, Esq., into the potentially illegal lobbying activities of the Service Employee International Union (SEIU) President Andy Stern.
But why should we be worried about Andy Stern? Why is he the most dangerous man in America?
Well, first, he has the ear of, and now obviously, power through Obama, so he can influence and push an agenda. He has advised Obama on his health care tactics (see his involvement in a YouTube video here.) Obama said repeatedly during his campaign that he calls SEIU and Andy Stern “first” on every issue.
But more importantly is what this man believes. In earlier decades, he might have been called a communist, certainly a socialist, but radicals these days prefer more benign labels, like “progressive”.
Let’s look at Andy Stern through his own words and actions:
“We’re trying to use the power of persuasion. And if that doesn’t work we’re going to use the persuasion of power.”
“We took names. We watched how they voted. We know where they live.“
Sound like a thug? Well, yes, SEUI members have beaten up people they don’t like. But does that make him a socialist?
“Workers of the world unite, it’s not just a slogan anymore. It’s the way we’re going to have to do our work.”
Hmm .. where did that slogan originally come from ? Gee, it is directly out of the Communist Manifesto (1848)!!! This man is in FAVOR of the dis-assembling of American capitalism in favor of a government run society (with himself and Obama in charge, of course!)
“I happened to be at Davos and I say they are going to rename this year’s Davos as the revenge of the countries over the companies. Because all of a sudden we realized we let Global Capitalism run amok and reap global regulation and today we began the process in London of actually putting in place those regulations.”
“We have a new metric. The president says he wants to judge the new economy, whether it increases the number of people in the middle class, whether we have shared prosperity, not just whether we have growth, which is that we’ve seen in the country of today. “
So Andy is preaching straight up Socialism to us, and he says the President is on board!!! No argument from the White House here … and with a selection as 1 of Obama’s 6 picks to the debt commission …. seems that the White House is OK with the Communist Manifesto.
So why is the health care plan of Obama’s so important? So important, he is asking Democratic House members to walk the plank, risk their political future for the bill? OK, let’s go back to Andy Stern:
“Now, how do we distribute wealth in the country? And this is sort of my last big point. And clearly government has a major opportunity to distribute wealth. Through tax policies, through minimum wages, through living wages, the government has a role in distributing wealth or social benefits like Medicare, Medicaid, certain health insurance.”
Andy Stern is an avowed Communist, with more access to Obama than anyone else, receives contemporary support from Obama himself, and is committed to redistribution of wealth, world government and the “revenge of countries over companies”.
Ladies and gentlemen: Andy Stern is the most dangerous man in America.
