ARE WE TOO LATE?

By Evelio Perez
 Why is Communist Cuba, aka "The Socialist Paradise", the envy of many Hollywood elitist snobs? Is this the model and system that many socially fair minded, wanna feel good Liberal "goody too shoes" here in this country would like to emulate as their own?
   
   President Barack Obama and his Socialist ideologues are speeding up the total transformation of our Judeo-Christian conservative society to the failed Cuban socialist model in spite of the total condemnation and will of more than half of the American people.

 The Socialist (Communist) influence runs deep here in the United States, they are methodically achieving that goal, step by step, from the  indoctrination of our children, beginning in Elementary School to the total control of the finest universities in the land. They not only control our schools, our media and The United States Senate, but they control the most powerful position in the whole world, the Presidency of the United States.
  
 We have to be vigilant and ready for any schemes that these people have planned (they are telling us how they are going to do it) to keep perpetual control of the country, just look at Hugo Chavez in Venezuela before he died, he was following the script to the letter and so are others in Central and South America. 

  Do not think for one second that these people are going to give up their power so easily. We have seen how they manipulate the people with complete control of all media outlets to not only win at the polls, but win convincingly. They will look you straight in the eyes and promise you the world until it's too late. They will lie, cheat and steal these elections (once again) right from under our noses, this has been their plan all along and it's right on schedule.

 Socialism always starts by playing with your sense of social justice, methodically eliminating the opposition with in your face lies and nasty political rhetoric. They will eventually take your individual freedoms one step at a time, this is the only way that they can perpetually keep their socialist system as is. 

 These people will destroy capitalism for the sake of the "common good " with their ultimate goal to change the constitution to facilitate their goal of a Socialist utopia, whether you like it or not !



 Why are some of us so willing to repeat past failures? How can we be so naive?
Socialism simply destroys incentives to excel.  Why try harder when the government is going to take care of me?.................. (they won't)

 All the Socialist programs and that include the Post Office, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Public Housing, Public Schools and now Obama Care.............are all going to go BANKRUPT, all of them !!!!! These are some of the major reasons of the financial problems that we are facing today. The major part of what is wrong with Socialism is that it simply does not work..... It never has, and it never will.

 The reason the United States has always been so rich and resourceful is because of the incredible idea that if you work hard and excel in your profession. You will improve the quality of life for you, your family and all of the people around you, including shop owners, restaurants, gardeners, barbers, etc, etc, etc......... and while you are producing, you and the rest of the work force are paying taxes to fund the Armed Forces, Fire and Police Departments, Education, etc, etc, etc..................

 I am sure as I can be that if we continue with this Socialist experiment, this great country as we know it will cease to exist. Can we seriously afford the same system that has failed so many times before?

 The likes of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao-Tse-Tung, The Castro Brothers, and now Chavez all wanted a Socialist change for Social Justice. The millions of duped people that did not agree with their warped Socialist system were simply imprisoned, tortured or killed. 

 Is that what we want for America? Could we as the World's food bank even feed our own people, let alone the starving people of the impoverished world if we go through with this Socialist adventure?

 This is the most important era of our times and time is running out, do we have what it takes to take our country back?..............or are we too late?

HOW FAR DO WE GO TO THE LEFT?


By Evelio Perez
How far to the left do we as Conservatives go to satisfy some of our Moderate (Liberal) Republicans? 


What sacrifices will we make to the Moderates?


How about easing up on some abortions? That might make us look more tolerant.....


How about Funding and morally legitimizing Obama Care? Were on the wrong side of the Main Stream Media polls on this so why not? 



Colin Powell with 
Louis Farrakhan
How about Illegal Immigration?  
It's only about 20 million of undocumented lawbreakers, we could easily absorb them........

How about a few more social programs to satisfy the ignorant Left?  

That should get us some votes, right?  WRONG!!!!!!!


 My point is that we have already made concessions to these softies and we got John McCain. We Conservatives, in order to get more diversity in our Party, alienated our Conservative Base and bastardized our principles to win elections and got destroyed by an inexperienced Socialist.
John McCain, Colin Powell, Lyndsey Graham, and Jon Huntsman are not, in my opinion, helping us but dividing us. 

 Our Conservative base that has been betrayed in many ways for the last eight years is leaving the Republican Party in droves. 



Senators Graham 
and McCain
 The leadership of the New Moderate Republican Party miss-underestimated the passion that most staunch Conservatives had for their deep and heartfelt values.

They thought they had us in their tight grasp to do as they pleased to get our sacred votes! But when they got our votes, they simply tossed us aside to further their own moderate agenda. 


 Look, I'm not saying to ban Moderates from the Republican Party...............What I am saying is that our choice is crystal clear, we either have a party of true Conservatives who are willing to accept the Moderates and use them to help balance our platform, or a Middle of the road Party that would sacrifice most of the ideals that most of us Conservatives believe in and assume that we would follow them blindly to build a great Moderate Republican Party, that to me is a formula of disaster that we can't afford, especially now...........

IN DEFENSE OF ROMNEYCARE

By Evelio Perez
In Defense of RomneyCare 
 President Obama has claimed that his health care plan is a lot like Mitt Romney's health care plan. This charge against RomneyCare has come from both liberals and conservatives. This is false. They are not the same for at least three crucial reasons:

1. RomneyCare is NOT the Same as ObamaCare

A simplistic description of the differences between the President's health care plan and Mitt Romney's plan is this:

ObamaCare provides coverage to the citizens via the Unites States Government.

RomneyCare provides coverage to the citizens via private sector even if government pays for it.

A more detailed analysis of why RomneyCare is Not ObamaCare is that ObamaCare seeks to provide universal coverage via the United States government. This is nothing more than a takeover of 1/6th of the American economy.

 In contrast, those covered in Massachusetts are covered through the private sector. The only federal involvement in Mitt’s entire health care plan is that RomneyCare takes Medicaid funds and state money that was applied for emergency rooms and simply redirected that money to allow the poor to buy private health insurance so that tax payers don’t are not footing the bill for those people who are with out insurance and who go to the emergency room.

 Thus, even though the person receives financial assistance from the government, they are getting coverage from a private insurer. Other than that small sliver of federal funding, RomneyCare relies on free market principles. There is no state government take over of health care.

2. RomneyCare was passed with Bipartisan support, ObamaCare Wasn't.

 What people forget is that the people of Mass wanted RomneyCare. Only TWO members of the House and Senate voted against it. TWO. Moreover, RomneyCare passed without any backroom deals, no voting gimmicks such as "deem and pass" and it was done in a bipartisan fashion.

 The same cannot be said for ObamaCare. It passed almost on party lines with all of the Republicans voting no and only 32 Democrats voting against it. But what is worse is that it was passed against the will of the American people.

3. Romney's plan is popular with its citzens, ObamaCare is not supported by the American People

ObamaCare was never popular before or after it passed Congress. After the passage of Obama’s health care plan, a national movement grew to repeal the program.

In contrast, RomneyCare has alwasy been popular.

In 2008, a poll found the following facts:

 Two years after the implementation of a health care reform law aimed at providing health coverage for nearly all Massachusetts residents, public support for the law remains high. According to a new poll by the Harvard School of Public Health and the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation, over two-thirds (69%) of Massachusetts residents support the law. Just over one in five (22%) oppose the law and approximately one in ten (9%) say they do not know enough about it to give an opinion. Since the law's passage in 2006, public support has increased slightly (69% in 2008 compared to 67% in 2007 and 61% in 2006). (Source.)

RomneyCare is still popular with the citizens of Massachusetts. consider the most recent poll:

"A poll conducted this week by The Washington Post of 880 Massachusetts residents who said they voted in the special election found that 68 percent support the Massachusetts plan. Even among Brown voters, slightly more than half backed the 2006 law.” (Source.)

Unlike ObamaCare, there is no statewide movement to repeal RomneyCare.

4. Differences In Cost

Before Mitt Romney began his ambitious plan to make health care affordable for the citizens of Massachusetts, he balanced the state budget. This was to ensure that Massachusetts was in good financial health before reform was to begin. Moreover, RomneyCare was projected to cost less than 1.5% of the state budget and has fallen well within its original forecast today. (Source.)

This stands in stark contrast with President Obama who did not ensure that the country was financial sound before pushing ObamaCare through Congress in the midst of a recession, a staggering national debt and high unemployment. Now that ObamaCare has been passed, it estimated to cost the nation 2 trillion dollars. It is worth noting that the CBO estimates have always underestimated the actual cost of every entitlement program it has ever been asked to review.

5. ObamaCare is unconstitutional. RomneyCare is constitutional.

On the issue of constitutionality, the distinction between RomneyCare and ObamaCare has been pointed out over at Evangelicals for Mitt:

"the states and the federal governments have different constitutional powers. States have a general "police power," which allows them to pass laws to advance the health, safety, and (traditionally) morals of the community. The federal government is limited to its enumerated powers. Constitutional critics of Obamacare ask a common-sense question: Where in the enumerated powers of the Constitution is the federal government empowered to require citizens to purchase a product from a private entity?"

6. Complexity v. Simplicity

ObamaCare is a 2,000 page monstrosity. RomneyCare is only about 70 pages long. A simple side by comparison demonstrates this fundamental difference between the two health care plans.

7. ObamaCare Introduces Cuts to Medicaid and Social Security, RomneyCare doesn't.

Our plan did not cut Medicaid or Medicare. Obamacare will divert $1.1 trillion away from Medicare, which is barely solvent as is.

8. ObamaCare raised taxes, RomneyCare introduced no new taxes.

Higher taxes on individuals and businesses were not part of Mitt Romney's plan whereas approximately $1 trillion in higher taxes will be a huge source of revenue to fund Obamacare.

9. Obama health care plan is a federally administered plan where as RomneyCare is a health care plan only for Massachusetts.

With a state plan, citizens can vote for their feet and either stay with the program or move to another state that offers a more competitive or affordable health care plan. However, with a universal health care plan, there's no where to run. No matter what state you move to, you'll have no choice but to be covered under ObamaCare.
