Obama admin selling snake oil to pass nationalized healthcare law

Is a page from the playbook of Nicoderm manufacturer Johnson & Johnson Company's partner Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) who argued that secondhand smoke is the deadliest health hazard ever encountered.....in order to pass laws that would allow government to mandate behavior in "public" places.

Obama's sales pitch has failed to find favor with the majority of Americans (49% opposed, 43% favor Obamacare). Even so, most Democrat politicians suggest that they'll vote in favor of Obamacare regardless of the majority opinion of their constituents.

This article warns voters not to be fooled by Obama's claim of "....removing the public option...." whether they call it co-op or reform, the fact that government is involved makes it a government healthcare program.

That Obama's center piece agenda, "healthcare reform", closely resembles the smoking ban tactics which have devastated the hospitality industry eliminating hundreds of thousands of jobs is not a coincidence. RWJF and Obama's candidacy share a long common thread with a pro-Democrat lobbying agency GMMB.

Now is not the time for Americans to shrink from this fight. The majority must prevail in opposing government healthcare "reform".....even if it's merely a promise of repealing this failed legislation after Americans put limited government lawmakers back into office during the next election.

Americans allowed RWJF to decimate hospitality businesses and jobs by not standing up to oppose earlier government control.....but the price is too prohibitive to sit idly by on this latest issue of government healthcare control.

Update: From The Hill comes the following article, and promise regarding Obamacare:

"If they somehow manage to get the votes and get enough Democrats to walk the plank and commit suicide, in the next Congress, I'll be chairman Joe Barton of the Energy and Commerce committee, and we'll repeal it," Barton said.
