Chirp! Chirp!

Idiots, Jackasses; and MORE Idiots and Jackasses…

Our government has a history of being run by Idiots and Jackasses. What makes it even worse, is that many of them were dishonest, greedy, self-fullfilling TOLLHEADS! A CrackerJack box full of CrackheadJacks!

What is poor Obama supposed to do with the inheritance of that historical mess anyway? To make matters even worse for Obama is the fact that many of those Idiots, Jackasses, and TOLLHEADS, (Democrat or Republican), are still in their elected offices; including those others still remaining that collect a paycheck from their employer -THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS. flag1Photo Source Unknown

2010 – Democrats Will Not Be The Only Ones To Get The BOOT…

It’s about time a shock was sent through members of Congress: However, I don’t believe that the American people really care whether they are a Democrat or a Republican. The people are starting to look at the man himself/woman herself, and weighing them on their individual performance.

The good of the people come first and Americans are tired of the same-o-same-o! So Congress members should not be voting for the purpose of saving their seat in Congress. We need to get rid of the old misplaced rules that are set in Congress, and get back to honesty, and a true desire to represent the people.

Analysis By Michael D. Shear – President Barack Obama speaks in the Rose Garden

…”Given the heated and often misleading rhetoric surrounding this legislation, I know that this was a courageous vote for many members of Congress,” Obama said Sunday, a nod to the 39 Democrats who voted against him. “Now it falls on the United States Senate to take the baton and bring this effort to the finish line.”

If he needed any reminder of how difficult that remains, the week began with a blunt message for his party from voters, who resoundingly rejected two Democratic candidates for governor and sent a shock through members of Congress who are up for reelection next year…

msnbc.com:Stopping insurance companies dirty tricks

Just WHAT is being done about this Medicare Fraud…

With the FRAUD financial figures that 60 minutes exposed, one can see WHY the health care system is struggling. People have been reporting these billing discrepancies for years now and no one makes any attempt to get to the bottom of the problem. Although I do believe that the health insurance companies have taken serious advantage of the American people, my point is, we need to expose and put a stop to those involved in the fraud going on.

Here is a comment that was forwarded to me:

Annual Medicare Fraud: $60 Billion;
Annual Profits of Top Ten Insurance Companies: $8 billion
As 60 Minutes reported last week, Medicare fraud is rampant and has now replaced the cocaine (ahem) business as the major criminal activity in South Florida. Both 60 Minutes and the Washington Post report that Medicare fraud now costs American taxpayers roughly $60 billion a year. That may sound like a lot of money, but surely it pales next to the extraordinary profits of private insurance companies, right?
Well, let’s see…. Last year, the profits of the ten largest insurance companies in America were just over $8 billion — combined. No single insurance company made even five percent of what Medicare reportedly loses in fraud.

While we’re making comparisons, in its real first ten years (2014-23), the Senate Finance Committee bill would cost $1.7 trillion. At the rate of last year’s profits, the combined ten-year profits of America’s ten largest insurance companies would be $83 billion — five percent of the costs of the Senate Finance Committee bill. Eighty-three billion dollars may not buy you much in comparison with BaucusCare, but — on the bright side — that ten-year tally is somewhat more than what Medicare loses each year in fraud.

So, the next time someone alleges that government-run health care is cheaper because of “lower administrative costs” — a truly preposterous claim on its surface — these numbers would be good ones to have at the ready: $60 billion in annual Medicare fraud, $8 billion in combined annual profits for America’s ten largest insurance companies.
