Since losing control of Congress in the 2010 midterm elections, President Obama has increasingly turned to executive orders, regulations, and federal fiats to implement his agenda in a program the White House has dubbed “We Can’t Wait.” Analysts say Obama hopes the end-run around the legislative branch will allow him to campaign against a “do-nothing Congress” in 2012. However, a new Rasmussen poll finds a whopping majority of Americans oppose his most recent executive action on health care reform. Only 27 percent of those surveyed approve of the president’s new program to distribute $1 billion in grants to organizations that promise to find new ways to increase employment in the medical industry. Nearly two-thirds of respondents, 63 percent, say the president should work with Congress on implementing the bill, as the Constitution requires.
Obama unleashed the grant proposal after Congress refused to pass his “jobs” bill.
“This will open the inbox for many innovators and organizations that have an idea to bring to the table,” said Dr. Donald Berwick, administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. “We’re seeking innovators, organizations and leaders that have an idea to bring into further testing.”
Unfortunately, Berwick idealizes the British National Health Service, which is infamous for rationing care to the ill. In 1993, Berwick insisted: “Using unwanted procedures in terminal illness is a form of assault. In economic terms, it is waste.” More recently, Berwick has declared, “Excellent health care is by definition [wealth] redistribution.” He is joined in the administration by Henry J. Aaron, Obama’s nominee for the Social Security Advisory Board, who for nearly 30 years has promoted health care rationing along the British model. His 2005 book Can We Say No? argues “health care rationing in the United States is advisable, even inescapable.”
The Washington Post reports the nation will face a shortage of 63,000 doctors by 2015. However, ObamaCare’s funding formula will decrease the pool further yet by paying doctors less. Lower pay translates to fewer doctors, which in turn results in rationing by necessity. With funding changes under ObamaCare, the Office of the Medicare Actuary forecast that within nine years Medicare will pay doctors less than Medicaid. Conservative analyst John Goodman explained, “From a financial point of view, the seniors will be perceived as less desirable customers than welfare mothers.”
The program has concrete ideas about how to compensate for the doctor shortage….

(Baraq Baw-maw), or Obama is the "Lawless One" that was Prophesied by the Ancient Scriptures! We are in the End Days! Are you prepared as a Believer?
I am not sure if he is the anti-Christ, but he could be one of the kings mentioned, that gives up their power to the anti-Christ for that unholy hour.
It doesn't really matter whether we are in the End Times or not. What matters is that we be prepared always with the fullness of truth not what Martin Luther or anyone after him decided what was truth and what wasn't. Anyway, we've always had "lawless Ones" on this earth. What's different now is the number of cowards/ without virtue types of people there are that are willing to take the dole and not stand up for what is right. "For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it." Matthew 16:25
It's not always "safe" to play it safe.
What disappoints me the most is the irresponsibility of ALL the politicians in D.C. (district of commie land), to sale this country to the enemies for their own interest (job security, perks, retirement plans, golden health care plan, inside trading with wall street, etc. I suppose they feel that they and their families are so much better than the American people. We, our tax dollars, pay for everything (the highest form of well fair recipients) for them paycheck, travel expenses, etc. and because we voted them into office, they think they have cart blanch to ignore us and dictate our lives to us. I don't recall hearing that promise to us when we went to the polls. Vote them all out of office. Time to flush the D.C toilet, starting with the white house. BO has been signing secret executives orders since day one. He has no intentions of ever coming out of the white house. Back door amnesty will see to that. God help us all.
There are ways of getting around "the would be king". By educating each and every state as to the criminality of Obama being placed on the state ballots as a candidate for pres. 2012, he should crumble nicely into humble pie crumbs.
There's also the Second Amendment, written into the Constitution for that express purpose, and we would not have to endure another year of 'executive orders'.
As in "lock and load" "keep your powder dry"?
your absolutly right which im going to do tomorow everyone in thier own state needs to get involved to make sure obama does not get on the ballot in their state he has fake social security numbers and a kenyan birth certificate we the people need to put a warrant out for his arrest and his whole administration
There's no doubt that this is going to get really ugly before it gets better. Cleaning "house" beginning with Obama, gutting Congress and anyone else who is guilty of crime, taking out the Clintons…tall order, but it needs to be done soon very soon! If we let status quo continue, we may have a moderate republican moving us at a slower pace to the NWO, Obama will continue at a fast pace, or Obama may get thrown under the bus with Hillary stepping in this coming summer to run as the democratic nominee. None of these choices look good!
Obama needs to be impeached, however, the Congress/Senate are all crooks, taking bribes, lining their bank accounts with union payoffs/soros payoffs and doing INSIDER TRADING. Pelosi/Moran and all the others that profited from the insider trading should be ousted from the Congress/Senate and their assets attached and placed in the US Treasury. Martha Stewart went to prison for inside trading and this shitface pelosi gets away with it. She and obama continually mock the American taxpayer/citizens as if we are stupid. I guess she has reason to think we are stupid because we don't group together as citizens and have obama impeached and these congress/senate members all run out of DC. When I was working for the federal government, if I did my job like they do theirs I would have been fired.
Screw you obummer this isanother 63 who opposes excutive order fasism.
This imposter of a president is behaving like a dictator hiding behind executive orders. Every dictator or cult leader throughout history has used smoke and mirrors, as Obama is doing, to take full and complete power unfortunately people have either blindly followed like sheep being lead to slaughter or buried their heads in the sand hoping it goes away. Then they whine and complain that they did not see it coming. People get you heads out of your arses and see what is really happening with this administration.
The Conservative that we elect as president on 11-6-12 had better be ready and gutsy enough to sign a lot of executive orders to reverse the White House control freak's executive orders. We should demand this from our Conservative Candidates. Also, a new Congress and Senate must be prepared to file criminal charges against barry and his subversive thugs!
It is obvious that nothing that the Obama administration does is out of bounds. They have all of their bases covered and Congress be damned. Very sad the way things are going for our country. If people buy into this continued lawlessness and re-elect Obama then they deserve what they voted for.
He is a narcissist and a dictator. He will destroy our republic. He has foreign and domestic friends and funding and will bring america down by whatever voter fraud and crookery is required. God save the USA!
The reason we have a "do-nothing Congress" is because the Democrats want to "do-nothing" but socialize America.
most democrats in congress are on the take inside trading just one of many things pelosi started with millon now shes over 21 millon
ObamaCare will destroy the best Medical Care in the world! Obama will distribute money to Organizations that will in turn give him Political Donations. Obama is the most corrupt President in the History of the United States and
owes his Alligence to the New World Order and the Communist Party! He has tried to destroy the United States since He took offfice! ObamaCare is not to provide HealthCare to American Citizens, it is to exert more Control
on the people! Our Do Nothing Congress should also be cleaned out!
Obummercare is also about decreasing the population, per the NWO rule book. They know they can't get euthanization passed to reduce and control the population growth, so they created another one of their roundabout ways to do it, albet in a slower time frame. You start by rationing the care to the elderly and disabled, then as the years go by and the money to pay the bills shrinks more restrictions until you get to the numbers you want and can control.
Some of you might think I am crazy, but think about it. Govt. is currently run by enviros, who won't be happy until we are back in the stone age and caves.
Look who supports sodomy….

Indict Obama, he is a menace that needs to be replaced. He is a Muslim born in Kenya, Africa, and detests the USA.His Marxist/Communist indoctrination only adds to his deceit, lies and under handed deals by by- passing the Constitution and applying his own made up rules without congresssional approval. INDICT THIS ILLEGAL ALIEN.HE IS NOT A US CITIZEN.
