Obama Triples Military Monthly Healthcare Premiums but does not touch civilian unionized defense workers

Monday, May 28th, 2012

Everyone needs to read this and the link, understand what is going on, and pass it to your email list!

 

There’s an issue out there that can ensure Barack Obama is defeated in 2012.


It’s not Obamacare.

It’s not his religious views.

It’s not his commitment to socialist and anti-American causes.


It’s not even the birth certificate and his eligibility issues.

I believe the issue that will take Obama down if Republicans make it an issue is his administration’s proposed budget cuts for active-duty military personnel and military retirees – but not civilian defense workers.

Do you get the picture?


Obama has tipped his hand. He’s showing the entire country what he thinks about our military service people – the people who risk their lives for their country are worth less than civilian defense workers who push papers around in Washington.

Chances are you don’t know much about this story. There’s a good reason for that. The Big Media don’t want you to know, because they recognize the political radioactivity it represents. This is the Death Star for Obama’s re-election campaign. If Americans know about this – Republicans, Democrats and independents all oppose him.


Here are the details of the story broken by the intrepid Bill Gertz:

  • “The Obama administration’s proposed defense budget calls for military families and retirees to pay sharply more for their health care, while leaving unionized civilian defense worker’ benefits untouched.”
  • “Several congressional aides suggested the move is designed to increase the enrollment in Obamacare’s state-run insurance exchanges.”
  • “The disparity in treatment between civilians and uniformed personnel is causing a backlash within the military that could undermine recruitment and retention.”
  • “Significantly, the plan calls for increases between 30 percent to 79 percent in Tricare annual premiums for the first year. After that, the plan will impose five-year increases ranging from 94 percent to 345 percent – more than three times current levels.”

Think about this – and imagine how you would campaign against Obama on just this one issue.


U.S. military service people don’t get the equipment they need to do their jobs. They don’t have the manpower they need to complete their missions. Their families scrimp and sacrifice financially so they can serve their country. They risk their lives and give their lives for their country.

But, according to the Obama administration, unionized civilian defense workers, sitting behind their comfortable desks in Washington, deserve better treatment than our heroes serving overseas in Iraq and Afghanistan and elsewhere.
It’s almost unbelievable that Obama could serve up a slow-pitch softball like this for Republicans to knock out of the park.
It’s even more unbelievable that none of them has.

Which is why I write this column.


Obama needs to pay for this. Whether or not he backs off, whether or not Congress throws his budget out the window, whether or not these cuts are ever enacted, Obama needs to pay a big political price for showing his cards. Republicans need to remind Americans every day that Obama is the guy who wants to cut medical care for soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen – all while preserving the goodies for Washington bureaucrats.


Men and women who put their lives on the line, who risked their health and well-being, are treated like second-class citizens in ObamaWorld.


He signaled his absolute contempt for the U.S. military – not just the institution of the military, but the active-duty grunts on the front lines.


This is an easy one for the American people to understand.


So where are the Republicans?


Where are the talk-show hosts?


Where is the blogosphere chatter?


Obama has stepped in something very smelly here. Why aren’t more Obama critics making hay of it?


Can you understand it?

Thank you for all your support!

 Together we have succeeded in defining the issues of the 2008 Presidential campaign.

Prior to posting the new ideology contained in Frank’s Top Ten List on my 2008 Presidential website at   http://www.franklynch.org  on July 20, 2007, none of the other candidates, including our new President, had included such vital issues as energy independence, windfarms, plug in electric cars, universal healthcare, tuition grants to college students, creating new jobs, and talking to our enemies.

Today all these issues arethe core issues of President Obama and the Democratic Party, and I am proud to have contributed to the future of America.

Please add the new blog   http://franklynchusa.wordpress.com   to your blogroll and favorites so we may add new issues, such as creating not the small number of Jobs Obama now seeks, but 10,000,000 new  jobs!

Federal Reserve Stampeding Public and Congress into Communnist Bailout

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Historically, every time the Federal Reserve has taken over a bank or savings and loan, the failed institution has been seized by the Fed’s staff arriving at the target institution’s headquarters after the close of business on Friday night, so that the public has the opportunity to adjust to the shock over the weekend, and so that there will not be a run of withdrawals the next morning.

This time, it would appear that the Fed was manipulated by politics regarding the public opposition to the Democratic Congress’ support of Paulson’s $700 billion, no strings attached, gift to his colleagues on Wall Street.

By Thursday afternoon it was clear that the Republicans in Congress had finally decided to listen to the wishes of the voters, and were refusing to go along with the Democratic Finance Chiefs Senators Chris Dodd and detached Barack Obama.

So the Fed attempted to panic the public by taking over Washington Mutual on Thursday night instead of over the weekend.

The Fed is part of the criminal conspiracy seeking to panic the public and the ignorant buffoons in Congress into a fearful stampede or else the world will end!

This is contemptible manipulation of the public through false fear, identical to the strategy of fearful stampede into the second Iraq war.

Thursday’s seizure of Washington Mutual by the Fed is a despicable attempt to use fear and panic to stampede both Congress and the public into a totally wrong and incredibly absurd course of action.

The $700 billion gift to Wall Street makes no sense at all and does nothing to treat the root cause of our problem, which is the permission of the government to financial institutions to bundle mortgages into tradable security packages.

The first step in curing the problem is to outlaw CDO and CMO packages, because they separate accountability from risk, thereby encouraging what should be criminalized activity bu unscrupulous mortgage lenders.

Paulson’s and the Democratic Congress want the bailout package to include “adjusting” individual mortgages downward, not to the new market value of the home, but to what the borrower can afford. Who determines, and by what mechanism, what the borrower can afford.

The adjustment provision goes far beyond socialism: it is pure Communism and abject redistribution of wealth.

No financial system on earth, and no nation, can survive is the government haas the authority to “adjust” individual’s debts.

The bailout package may well be the end of America.

Call your Congressmen and tell them you oppose every aspect of the bailout package.

Current laws and the operation of the Federal Reserve are everything we need for the markets to reach equilibrium. No intervention by government can make the oversupply of housing disappear.

Local governments and pressures within the Democratic Party to seze the foreclosed homes, or to use taxpayer dollars to repo them, and use them for low cost community housing is nothing but the purest form of Marxist Communism that will bankrupt America.

Every elected official who supports the Bush/Chris Dodd/Barack /Obama/Democrats bailout plans should be impeached, AND I mean it.

Then go to these sites and tell your elected officials that you “OPPOSE THE BAILOUT”

Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley Are Bank Holding Companies

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

In the final destruction of all the wonderful laws passed by a thoughtful Congress and Franklin Delano Roosevelt to protect the American people from the excesses and corruption that caused the Great Depression, your totally incompetent government  taken the final steps to maximize the corruption of our financial system.

The last two major independent investment banking/ stock brokerage houses have now officially become commercial banks.

Wave of Tent Cities As In the Great Depression

Friday, September 19th, 2008

RENO, Nev. —  A few tents cropped up hard by the railroad tracks, pitched by men left with nowhere to go once the emergency winter shelter closed for the summer.

Then others appeared — people who had lost their jobs to the ailing economy, or newcomers who had moved to Reno for work and discovered no one was hiring.

Within weeks, more than 150 people were living in tents big and small, barely a foot apart in a patch of dirt slated to be a parking lot for a campus of shelters Reno is building for its homeless population. Like many other cities, Reno has found itself with a “tent city” — an encampment of people who had nowhere else to go.

From Seattle to Athens, Ga., homeless advocacy groups and city agencies are reporting the most visible rise in homeless encampments in a generation.

Nearly 61 percent of local and state homeless coalitions say they’ve experienced a rise in homelessness since the foreclosure crisis began in 2007, according to a report by the National Coalition for the Homeless. The group says the problem has worsened since the report’s release in April, with foreclosures mounting, gas and food prices rising and the job market tightening.

Banks Take The Profit and Taxpayers Take the Loss

Monday, September 8th, 2008

It was during the mid 1970′s that Fannie Mae started the widespread issuance of MBS or mortgage backed securities which were a giant fraud that built upon itself every year through the administrations of both parties.

The sham is that banks sell bad loans to Fannie who then resells them as triple A absolutely safe MBS, essentially letting the banks take the profits and the taxpayers take the risk and the losses.

As banks did this more and more, running a printing press that used this back door to let banks write government guaranteed mortgages, it fed upon itself like a cancer.

For 30 years, as both the Presidency and control of Congress shifted back and forth between both political parties, and back and forth again so that every elected official of all parties are guilty, this cancer grew, fed by bank contributions to every elected official in America, until it not only transferred $800 billion in new national debt to the taxpayers, and it has destroyed our economy.

This bailout is like cutting the tail off a dog one inch a month instead of all at once.

There will be headlines continuously as we taxpayers inject more and more capital into Fannie and Freddie.

We should, instead, just put them out of their misery and return all mortgage financing entirely to the banks and savings and loans, with no government involvement whatsoever.

This is nothing but creeping socialism.

Watch Our Government Make Insiders Even Richer

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

In previous posts I criticized regulators for not shutting down trading in insolvent stocks like Fannie Mae and Freddie mac.

Watch the details of the takeover of those companies. I guarantee the regulators will not do the right thing and take them over the same way as banks are taken over, by eliminating the common stock completely.

We know 9 percent of m ortgages are bad and Fannie and Freddie only have 3 percent capital so they are insolvent by 300 percent, so the stock is worthless.

Watch the regulators do a takeover sufficiently complex that you and I do not dare buy the stock immediately, yet the Wall Street insiders will know the true value and will get even richer by having access to information that you and I don’t.

Put em all in jail.

You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

A few days ago I criticized the Regulators for defrauding investors for permitting trading in the stocks of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

http://www.democrats.org/page/community/post/franklynch/CxMV

Today it was announced that 9 percent of mortgages are late or delinquent. Astoundingly, One of eleven mortgages are bad.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have only 3 percent equity, yet 9 percent of the mortgages they guaranteed in bad.

That means these companies are insolvent by 300 percent. And our “Broken Government” has continued to let investors be defrauded by trading these stocks.

When those people with bad mortgages become homeless, things will get much worse.

The cost to the economy and to us taxpayers for all the bank bailouts that will follow will place the US on the verge of bankruptcy.

 Home prices are going to continue to decline, which means more mortgages will be upside-down (where the mortgage is larger than the home value). That will result in even more people walking away from their mortgages, and

HOME PRICES WILL DECLINE EVEN FURTHER

for years. . . .

and years after that. . . .

New construction and home builders will suffer, joblessness will get worse, and for longer than anyone thinks.

The new President will inherit an economy that will be the worst in my lifetime.

Communist China will continue to beat the War Drums that opened the Olympics. Did you know those drummers were all soldiers?

Communist China will continue to take more of our jobs. Both candidates plans to spend billions for training workers for replacement jobs is money down the toilet. McDonalds trains its own employees.

The only source of NEW jobs will be green jobs in alternative energy, and we must really, really focus on that. The government will distort the development of alternative energy by wasting billions on inefficient but catchy names alternatives, such as solar power, which contributes as much pollution in manufacturing and disposing of the solar panels as it saves.

Free enterprise will handle alternative energy much better than the government, and much faster! Keep the government out of alternative energy.

and revenue from property taxes will continue to decline, robbing our already short-changed  schools of much needed revenue, so our children will pay the price of government lack of regulation

McCain Is Way Smarter Than We Thought

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

The media is ranting into a frenzy that McCain is so stupid that he chose Sara Bara Cuda  without properly vetting her , and was blindsided by her daughter’s pregnancy.

That presumption is a suckers’ trap.

The Republicans are experts at public perception.

The Republican National Committee is exceedingly professional, as proven by their success in winning more Presidential elections than the DNC in my lifetime, which is longer than I care to admit.

Please, nobody attack me accusing me of saying Repulicans take glee in the unfortunate complication of Mrs. Palin’s family. My point is they have the cunning to make use of situations that may not be obvious to their critics.

The more likely scenario has the following hypothetical conversation taking place:

FBI: At age 44 Mrs. Palin elected not to have an abortion, and consciously elected to carry and deliver a baby that she knew had Downs Syndrome.

McCain: We can use that to prove, without ever having to say it, that Republicans practice what they preach, and believe in the Sanctity of Life even when it is hard, incredibly hard.

McCain: And we can have her appear with her daughter holding the disability baby behind Mrs. Palin to (a) show sympathy, (b) show off our belief in Right to Life, and (c) show family unity.

FBI: The problem is her daughter is five months pregnant.

McCain: Is she married?

FBI: No.

McCain: O.K. We definitely will have her hold the baby, and those people with chronic rabies infection will start a rumor that the first baby is the daughters.

Advisor: OOH! That should get us $20 million of free publicity, and infinite sympathy and anger from people who resent attacking a candidate’s family!

McCain: We should let that play out as long as possible for the most free publicity. All the time the chronic rabies crowd are attacking the poor little 17 year old, nobody is talking about Obama. It is like he dropped off the face of the earth. Yippee!

McCain: And later we can slowly, ever so slowly leak out photos and proof that it is Mr. Palin’s baby. The longer we drag it out, the worse the people attacking her will look.

Advisor: Then we can have surrogates, who must be female, appear on the news all day long showing that the 17 year old also believes in the Right to Life, and is doing the right thing by getting married!

McCain: What a fabulous anti-abortion crusade by example, by: “Do as I do, the same as I say!”

Advisor: And best of all, those Democrats will continue to underestimate us.
