111 New Federal Bureaucracies Created by Pelosi Health Care Bill

Here's the list, per a release from Rep. Mike Pence's office. My personal favorite -- #108, the "Program for treatment of child sexual abuse victims and perpetrators." Personally, I kind of like Gov. Jindal's program for the treatment of child sexual abuse perpetrators. I am curious, though, as to what Pelosi has in mind.

Maybe Republicans ought to move to strike the "and perpetrators" part of that program?

America has 3-days to figure out that there is nothing about ObamaCare (PelosiCare or HarryCare) that has anything to do with healthcare reform or anything to do with helping the American people, cutting costs, improving care or in insuring everyone. It is all about controlling more of the American Economy that used to pretty much be part of the private sector and grabbing power… Please, wake up America… this bill is one of those Liberty or Tyranny moments as Rep Bachmann said and as the House Minority Leader, John Boehner is warning us about.

If you can possible do it… get to Washington D.C. Thursday and meet at the Capital steps at noon… or go for Wednesday and Thursday November 4th & 5th.

Did you know that approx 800 additional pages in pork and amendments will be added to that bill before the vote?

Did you know that the GOP has present 50-alternative healthcare bills that were not even considered; the Dems have locked out the GOP from and any deliberation on this bill and the White House has refused to meet with any Republicans, even the trained doctors in the House and Senate, since last Thursday? Then, over the weekend they were told they could now present an alternative before the vote…? Yah Right…

Does this sound like anyone is interested in real reform, your healthcare or anything positive?

The HC Bill has been online since last Thursday nite and reviews of what is in that bill are everywhere… and it isn’t good for America, for you or your family.

See you in Washington DC on Thursday… If you can’t, gather in protest at your representative or Senator’s local office and/or please flood the capital switchboard all week and especially between 11:45 and 1:00PM on Thursday. Then back up those calls with calls to your Congress people’s local offices and emails and faxes to both offices.

John Boehner: “Let America Read the Healthcare Bill”

For those who want to read the bill and haven’t started, it may be found at: http://docs.house.gov/rules/health/111_ahcaa.pdf

Let Congress Hear You… Come Join Us or Call and Please Share This Information

Hope to see you on the Hill

United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 or (202) 225-3121

The only people who are telling you that there are good things in this bill or program are people who haven’t read the bill or have drunk from the Progressive Liberal Kool Aid…

Message to Congress:

“Hands off our Healthcare! We will work to unseat or impeach everyone who votes for ObamaCare!!

Junk this entire bill and we will start over after the 2010 or 2012 Elections with bipartisan and real reform!!

The elderly Seniors need to realize what the Obama Health Care Plan is really all about

Update: Call to Action – Come to Washington DC for: Story Time for Congress, Meet-Up With Rep Michelle Bachmann and an anti-ObamaCare Tea Party (Nov 4th and 5th)

GOP Healthcare Solutions

Stand-up America. Someday your children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will ask you what you were doing when this was going!?!

------------

Just Received this same list from My Congressman, the Honorable John Campbell who is great at updating his constituents weekly or more!

Same 111 Point list, so it is making the rounds from Congressman to Congressman as well... Don't let them tell you that they didn't know!!

Thanks to the House Republican Conference, I have included a list of names of these proposed new bureaucratic entities along with the corresponding page numbers.

Click Here to Read all 1,990 pages.

Today’s edition of the Wall Street Journal has a scathing editorial of the legislation introduced by Speaker Pelosi. It notes the creation of a new ‘Health Choices Commissioner’ that will decide “essential benefits” which all insurers will have to offer. This sounds like something straight out of Aldous Huxley’s, A Brave New World or George Orwell’s, 1984.

Until next time, I remain respectfully,
Congressman John Campbell's signature
