Obama & Healthcare - Page 6

I recently saw Obama trying to defend his healthcare and say it's not socialist and I literally laughed out loud. His health-care plan is very socialist and he should not be spinning webs for us like that. He is never straight forward and that bugs me.

Polls: Americans Oppose Obamacare on One Year Anniversary

Two new polls show Americans oppose the pro-abortion Obamacare legislation on its one-year anniversary. One year after President Obama signed the law, the number of Americans who say they don't like it is moving up.

A new Rasmussen poll out today finds most voters still want the national health care law repealed, and the number who are at least somewhat confident that repeal will happen is at the second highest level since the law's passage by Democrats in Congress a year ago.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 53% of Likely Voters at least somewhat favor repeal of the new health care law, including 43% who Strongly Favor it. Forty-two percent (42%) oppose repeal, with 27% who are Strongly Opposed. Overall, the number of voters who favor repeal of the law has ranged from a low of 50% to a high of 63% since last March.

Although the Republican-controlled House of Representatives voted earlier this year to repeal the law, the measure has gained little traction in the Senate where Democrats remain in the majority. But 50% of voters now believe it's at least somewhat likely the health care plan will be repealed, a figure that's been exceeded in a year of surveying only one other time when it hit 52% in December. Thirty-seven percent (37%) think repeal is unlikely. These figures include 16% who say it's Very Likely but only six percent (6%) who think it's Not At All Likely.

Belief in the likelihood of repeal began to climb in late October 2010 as it became clear that Republicans would gain control of the House. Ref. Source 4

GOP Presidential Hopefuls, Congressional Leaders Bash Obamacare

Likely Republican presidential hopefuls bashed Obamacare on the day of its one-year anniversary - joining pro-life advocates who hope the courts overturn the pro-abortion law or Congress repeals it. House Republican leaders joined them.

Fresh from his announcement of a presidential exploratory committee, pro-life former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty took a firm position against Obamacare, similar to the one he took as governor where he refused to implement parts of the controversial health care plan.

"One year ago today, President Obama signed into law the federal government takeover of health care, one of the most flawed and misguided laws in modern history," Pawlenty said. "Obamacare takes our health care system in the wrong direction, failing to reduce costs and improve quality. The law infringes on individuals" and states" rights by forcing individuals to purchase a good or service, which is why I joined a lawsuit calling the law unconstitutional."

If the Supreme Court does not eventually rule Obamacare unconstitutional, Pawlenty said he would take steps to repeal it.

"If courts do not do so first, as President, I would support the immediate repeal of Obamacare and replace it with market-based health care reforms," he said.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who is widely expected to run for the GOP nomination to face pro-abortion President Barack Obama, also came out swinging against Obamacare, which recent polls show is still significantly unpopular with American voters. He said he would issue executive orders on his first day as president allowing all 50 states to have waivers to opt out of implementing the health care law. Ref. Source 6

A federal appeals court in Cincinnati has ruled in favor of the Obama administration, saying a key provision in the sweeping health care reform bill passed last year was constitutional.

The "individual mandate" requiring nearly all Americans purchase health insurance by 2014 or face financial penalties was challenged in federal courts by individuals and groups. The three-judge panel ruled the requirement was constitutional. Ref. CNN

Appeals Court Rules Obamacare Mandate Unconstitutional

A federal appeals court today issued a ruling agreeing with a federal judge's decision ruling the individual mandate at the heart of Obamacare is unconstitutional.

In January, a federal judge in Florida issued a ruling in what is the largest lawsuit filed against the Obamacare health care law. U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson said the individual mandate is unconstitutional and, therefore, the entire law is as well.

The individual mandate is a portion of the law independent and conservative voters most strongly oppose because it requires Americans to purchase health insurance, that could fund abortions with taxpayer funds or premiums, whether they want to or not. The case the state of Florida and more than two dozen others made to Judge Vinson is that the individual mandate is unconstitutional and the Constitution does not allow Congress to regular financial inactivity.

The Obama administration appealed the decision to the U.S. Appeals Court based in Atlanta, Georgia. Judge Vinson did not stop the implementation of the law pending the appeal which could take two years to reach the Supreme Court and result in a decision.

Today, a three judge panel of the federal appeals court ruled Obamacare's individual mandate is unconstitutional, calling it "an unprecedented exercise of congressional power." Ref. Source 9

Obama Admin Hides Public Comments Against Obamacare Mandate

The Obama administration today is coming under fire from pro-life advocates who submitted tens of thousands of public comments opposing a new mandate that would force insurance companies to cover birth control, contraception and drugs that may cause abortions.

The administration has initially approved a recommendation from the Institute of Medicine suggesting that it force insurance companies to pay for birth control and drugs that can cause abortions under the Obamacare government-run health care program.

The IOM recommendation, opposed by pro-life groups, called for the Obama administration to require insurance programs to include birth control - such as the morning after pill or the ella drug that causes an abortion days after conception - in the section of drugs and services insurance plans must cover under "preventative care." The companies will likely pass the added costs on to consumers, requiring them to pay for birth control and, in some instances, drug-induced abortions of unborn children in their earliest days.

Several leading pro-life groups - including the Family Research Council and the nation's Catholic bishops, among others - had led the charge to urge pro-life Americans to speak out against the recommendation, the mandate to force coverage and the lack of conscience protections of religious groups that don't want to be forced to purchase insurance coverage with those objectionable provisions to send comments to the Department of Health and Human Services.

Even though tens of thousands of pro-life Americans have done so, Jeanne Monahan of FRC says the Obama administration is not making those comments public, as promised. Ref. Source 9
