Really Scary

This was forwarded to me and I thought more people should see it.
This letter appeared in the Indianapolis Star (which is owned by the
same people who own the Arizona Republic ) and was sent to a very popular
Indiana Senator. This just goes to show everyone what pressure these
Democrats are currently under, so continue to let them know how you feel
about the healthcare bill.

Shock to NBC This morning.


An Indianapolis doctor's letter to Sen. Bayh about the Bill(Note: Dr.
Stephen E. Frazer, MD practices as an anesthesiologist in Indianapolis ,
IN ) Here is a letter I sent to Senator Bayh.. Feel free to copy it
and send it around to all other representatives. -- Stephen Fraser


Senator Bayh,

As a practicing physician I have major concerns with the health care
bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill and am shocked by
the brazenness of the government's proposed involvement in the
patient-physician relationship. The very idea that the government will
dictate and ration patient care is dangerous and certainly not helpful
in designing a health care system that works for all. Every physician I
work with agrees that we need to fix our health care system, but the
proposed bills currently making their way through congress will be a
disaster if passed.

I ask you respectfully and as a patriotic American to look at the
following troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot
possibly believe that these proposals are in the best interests of the
country and our fellow citizens.

Page 22 of the HC Bill: Mandates that the Govt will audit books of
all employers that self-insure!!

Page 30 Sec 123 of HC bill: THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that

this as employers will be forced to reduce its work force, benefits,
and wages/salaries to cover such a huge expense.)

have access to ALL Americans' finances and personal records. (I guess
so they can 'deduct' their fees)

Page 203 Line 14-15 HC: "The tax imposed under this section shall not
be treated as tax." (Yes, it really says that!) ( a 'fee' instead)
Page 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill: Govt will reduce physician services for
Medicaid Seniors. (Low-income and the poor are affected.)

Advance Plans, HMOs, etc. (Forcing people into the Govt plan)

Page 379 Sec 1191: The Govt creates more bureaucracy via a
"Tele-Health Advisory Committee." (Can you say HC by phone?)

Consult." (Think senior citizens end-of-life patients.)

defining, creating, and rationing those services.


Senator, I guarantee that I personally will do everything possible to
inform patients and my fellow physicians about the dangers of the
proposed bills you and your colleagues are debating.

Furthermore, if you vote for a bill that enforces socialized medicine
on the country and destroys the doctor-patient relationship, I will do
everything in my power to make sure you lose your job in the next
election.

Respectfully,

Stephen E. Fraser, MD

Dear Reader,

I urge you to use the power that you were born with (and the power
that may soon be taken away) and circulate this email to as many people
as you can reach. The Power of the People can stop this from
happening to us, our parents, our grandparents, our children, and to
following generations

That pretty well sums it up. Call your congressmen and senators, tell them to stop this madness. 1-202-224-3121.

"Focus Like a Laser Beam"

I’m glad that Obama and the democrats are “focusing like a laser beam” on jobs for this year. Imagine how much worse it could be if they were not. Thirty states reported more job losses in January, and February does not look much better. As Harry Reid said “…only 36,000 more people lost their jobs…” That’s encouraging. I can’t wait for the green jobs to kick in, but wait, they did in California and there were huge job losses in the field of green jobs in California. Darn those facts, they keep pointing out the terrible job Obama is doing. I’m sure Al Gore will find a way to blame it on global warming, so it won’t be Obama’s fault. In the mean time the brown shirts from SEIU are out threatening people to support Obamacare. No one can accuse Obama of not being ambitious.

John McCain Is At It , Again

McCain has teamed up with another liberal, Liebermann, in sponsoring a bill in the US Senate that is a direct attack on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. It is called “Enemy Belligerent, Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010,” and effectively treats American citizens worse than foreign combatants. I urge you to check out this piece of legislation and contact your senators and tell them to oppose this totalitarian bill. The bill “sets out a comprehensive policy for the detention, interrogation and trial of suspected enemy belligerents who are believed to have engaged in hostilities against the United States by requiring these individuals to be held in military custody, interrogated for their intelligence value and not provided with a Miranda warning,” writes the Atlantic’s Marc Ambinder. This comes on the heels of the Dept of Homeland Security declaring that returning war veterans, constitutionalists, people opposed to government run health care, and anyone who disagrees with the current administration, are terrorists and more dangerous than islamic terrorists. Now doesn't that make you feel all warm inside?
