He's at it again

One would think that Obama would have learned after the Joe Wilson affair. His position on health care for illegal aliens is far from crystal clear.

Yet, once again the White House makes bold statements presumably with the hope that if you say it often enough it will become reality.

Here is this clip from the White House website - a blog authored by Jesse Lee:
Attack: President Obama’s health insurance reform plan will cover undocumented immigrants.

Reality Check: There are some in Washington who wish to preserve the status quo at all costs, and who are looking to create any issues that will increase opposition to reform. But this isn’t really about immigrants – it's about health care.
o Undocumented immigrants aren’t going to be covered under this bill – the people trying to make this an issue are simply wrong.

o Undocumented immigrants would not be able to participate in the exchange, nor would they receive subsidies or tax credits. Those who are lawfully present in this country would be able to participate.

Well, the first problem is the first line. It says: "President Obama’s health insurance reform plan..."

I for one would like to look at President Obama's plan. Where is it? Where is it published? Is it on-line somewhere?

And once you make a statement like that without telling us where to find the details, you can say anything you want. It could mean nothing more than "From the President's point-of-view illegal aliens must not benefit from our reform plan and he will veto any efforts to the contrary." But it doesn't say that.

Surely HB3200 and the Baucus bill are far from settled on the question of illegal aliens being able to buy at subsidized rates.

It really troubles me that the administration continues to make these bold statements.

Before you can talk like that...
1) Show us the details of your plan
2) Make the wording bulletproof
3) Tell the super-libs to stop putting it back on the table

Obama has done none of these things, so to say "the people trying to make this an issue are simply wrong" is... well, ....wrong!

  1. With unemployment at a 26 year high, the New York Times has revealed that immigration authorities at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services have undertaken preparations for issuing visas to 11-18 millions (?) My guess over 20 million + illegal aliens who would be granted--BLANKET AMNESTY--if Congress is--able--to pass immigration reform legislation. Now is the time to remind your Senators and Representatives at 202-224-3121, that we demand they do NOT enroll on to this ill conceived abomination. Into our country at least a million law abiding newcomers come annually, clutching their entry visas; many waiting for years for a chance at the American dream. But the thrall of lobotomized Democrats are in for a hard lesson, including some Republican business enthusiasts, who think it's--going to be a simple solution approving this financial calamity.

    This illegal alien mess has been methodically created by both parties for decades. But monumental amounts of the US population do not agree with this outcome. LaRaza, a radical anti-Sovereignty organization, will transform the US into a third world dumping ground yet?

    All we need is mandatory E-Verify to remove from every honest business, workers who came here illegally; those who don't will suffer severe penalties. This is a murky back-door way for hard-line Liberal Democrats to sneak past all verification measures, which would approve a path to citizenship for lawbreakers thus giving them access to--YOUR--health care? All Americans GOOGLE--NUMBERSUSA, to uncover the deceitful way they plan to cheat all legal workers and citizens? America is already on the road to irreversible OVERPOPULATION. Do all the people out their who are suffering from a compassion syndrome, believe--ALL--Americans want to pay even higher taxes to support corporate welfare, for the millions they have already hired? I don't think so?

    This is one of the cloaked agendas of The Council of Foreign Relations to intensify the unfettered inflow of destitute peoples into North America. We already spend more money across the globe, than anyone else? Yet the United Nations is never satisfied. We already have a negative-dollar free trade treaty, which has seen the disappearance of our manufacturing industries. To me Globalism and internationalism are dirty words, and when Americans open their eyes it might be too late? Our country is being emasculated by the illegal immigration and the financial support poured out by unaware taxpayers. America is like the Greek god "Atlas" supporting the world and its issues? That is exactly what we are doing--SUPPORTING THE WORLD? For the record 15 Democrats are already discussing your fate, as they strife to undermine immigration enforcement amendment.

    1. To permanently reauthorize E-Verify? 2. To complete the 700 miles of border fencing? 3. To continue and not rescind the No-match-letter program, that HS Napolitano has closed down. 4. Grassley’s amendment to allow all businesses that use E-Verify to run all of their current employees through the E-Verify system. Go see who the traitors are to our protection of the border at NUMBERSUSA.

  2. Do you know what the state of our highways or underground utilities? Each state has 30 year underground causeways of irreparable water and sewage pipes that our government has ignored. Again I say watch "The Crumbling of America" on the History channel. Each year our bridges and dams are deteriorating, so they do hasty repairs, but many are seeing deployable erosion that cannot be fixed, because the state has not enough money? Yet the Democrats want to cause an avalanche of impoverished people, who will want to bring in even more family members. Who’s going to recompense for them? Then even more will break through the fence, enter as a tourist or slip into America via the Caribbean? The onslaught will never end and our reservoir of cash is finally exhausted.

    I have a hard time paying my taxes, without paying more for the impecunious, uneducated who slip into our sovereign country bring the criminals, the handicapped and elderly immigrants. Who pays for my family and kids, the house payment, health care and car? NOT THE BLOODY TRAITORS IN WASHINGTON ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE WHO KEEP PILING ON HIDDEN TAXES TO SUBSIDIZE ILLEGAL FOREIGNERS AND FAMILIES FROM OTHER COUNTRIES. I'LL EVEN GO FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE SKILLED JOBS AND SOMETHING TO OFFER, BUT NOT FOR JUST ANYBODY WHO TAXPAYERS HAVE TO SUPPORT? Learn more about corruption at JUDICIAL WATCH.

  3. Brittanicus, you are right.
    Our nation's infrastructure is crumbling right before our eyes.
    And that is one of the CORE ROLES OF GOVERNMENT.
    I just heard on the radio today that the Illinois solution is to raise our Drivers License renewal fee from $10 to $30. That will help rebuild our roads and bridges, they say. What about the gas tax we've been paying for every gallon we pump? Where'd that go?
    Yes, we are angry. They have failed at the basics and they still don't get it!
