From Wesley Smith: Medicare in Trouble

Medicare is in deep trouble because it is a single payer health care system that seeks to cut costs by, among other ways, restricting physician and facility compensation. As a consequence, we are seeing the ongoing collapse of the system as doctors restrict their patient load and cease providing optimal care. From the story:

Want an appointment with kidney specialist Adam Weinstein of Easton, Md.? If you’re a senior covered by Medicare, the wait is eight weeks. How about a checkup from geriatric specialist Michael Trahos? Expect to see him every six months: The Alexandria-based doctor has been limiting most of his Medicare patients to twice yearly rather than the quarterly checkups....Medicare in Trouble

Rebranded ACORN Network Will Target Battleground States in 2012

By Kevin Mooney — Political operatives connected with renamed ACORN affiliates remain strongly positioned to help swing close, competitive races for left-leaning candidates in 2012 elections, according to former insiders and policy analysts who are familiar with the network’s operations.

Even as the organization known in full as the Association of Community Organizers for Reform NOW (ACORN) files for bankruptcy, it continues to reconstitute itself on the state and national level with the same leadership, same staff, same offices and the same financial backers, sources say.

U.S. Senator Sam Brownback -- Press Release

Recently elected Kansas Governor Sam Brownback commented on the health care bill in July:
Brownback, the committee's ranking member, said, "This updated chart illustrates the overwhelming expansion of government control over health choices and the bewildering complexity facing everyone affected by this law. It doesn't take long to see how the recently signed health care bill causes a hugely expensive and explosive expansion of federal control over health care. Personal choices that should be between a doctor and a patient will quickly be strangled in a never ending web of bureaucracy."

Brownback appeared today on Gretta Van Sustren's Show and pledged to oppose Obama's health care directing his Attorney General to join the lawsuit against Obamacare.

'I'll make sure Obamacare never, ever implemented'

Boehmer: "This health-care bill will ruin the best health-care system in the world, and it will bankrupt our country," Boehner said, "And secondly, let's not forget, this is also about jobs. And if you look at all of the requirements [the bill places] on employers, you can understand why they're not hiring new employees, because we've raised the cost of employment."

New Jersey Residents: Urgent Alert from New Jersey Right to Life! PP Funding Bills Scheduled for Hearing on Mon. Nov. 8. Take Action Immediately!

**11/03/10 Update - Urgent Action Needed! The Assembly Appropriations has scheduled a hearing on Bills A3273 and A3274 to fund Planned Parenthood/family planning clinics for Mon.Nov. 8, 2010 at 2 p.m. in Committee Room 11, 4th Floor of the State House Annex. These are the Assembly versions of the bills which were supposed to be heard at the October 7 Senate Budget Committee that was cancelled. See below for further details.

Bill information: Bill S2293/A3274 transfers $5M of unexpended balance from Purchase of Service for Inmates Incarcerated in County Penal Facilities account from the budget and appropriates that amount for Women's Health and family planning services. Bill S2294/A3273 requires the Department of Human Services to file a permanent waiver application to expand medicaid coverage to persons up to 200% of the poverty level. The bills will ensure that Planned Parenthood/family planning clinics get reimbursed 90% for every service they provide.

An important fact that the sponsors of these bills won't mention is that a U.S. Inspector General audit found that from 2001-2005, Planned Parenthood improperly billed all outpatient services to get the 90% reimbursement rate. The State had to reimburse the federal government a total of $3M for this billing error. Their arrogance knows no bounds.
These bills are on the fast track.

1. If possible, please plan to come down to the Assembly Appropriations Hearing in Trenton on Monday, November 8 for the Hearing to show your opposition to funding Planned Parenthood/family planning clinics. Please email me at mtasy@njrtl.org if you plan to come to Trenton.
2. Please email and call the members of the Assembly Appropriations Committee listed below and the Governor with suggested message(s) as soon as possible, but before Monday. See below for list of members and suggested message.
3. Please phone and email your own State Senator and 2 Assembly persons with the same message. You can also send a pre-written email to them directly by clicking on "Take Action."


On September 20, the NJ Senate failed to override the Governor's VETO of S2139. Thanks to all who contacted their Senators. Immediately following the vote, Democrats in both Houses introduced two new bills, S2293/A3274 and S2294/ A3273 to fund Planned Parenthood. Please call and email the following members of the Assembly Appropriations Committee and Senate Budget Committee and the Governor. See messages for each below.

Message for Members of the Assembly Appropriations and your three State Legislators: As a NJ taxpayer and citizen, I urge you to vote no on Bills A3273 and A3274. I don't want my tax dollars used to fund Planned Parenthood/family planning clinics. Thank you.

"Alaska Senate election results 2010 could favor Murkowski over Joe Miller, but so far that’s not known..and... may not be determined for some time. �Why not? Because the “write in” candidate won the election, which seems to suggest that Lisa Murkowski won. The votes must be hand-counted because the write-in ballots could include a number of different candidates."

"Our country was founded on a revolutionary concept -- a new kind of government both empowered and controlled by its citizens.

This idea, the very foundation of our great experiment in democracy, was betrayed with enactment of the new healthcare act. Every poll showed that a majority of Americans rejected this legislation and yet Congress ran right over the majority will of the American people and enacted it into law."

Pro-life Candidates Victorious in Pennsylvania

It came at 12:30 am on Nov. 3, the concession speech by Joe Sestak and the Victory speech of Pat Toomey, the new junior Senator from Pennsylvania. The Toomey-Sestak race was a nail-biter, the announcement coming after much earlier announcements of Tom Corbett's victory as Governor. In northeast PA, Lou Barletta won the Eleventh Congressional District seat over 26-year incumbent Paul Kanjorski and Tom Marino beating two-term Congressman Chris Carney in the Tenth Congressional district.
It was a clean sweep for pro-life Republicans!
Pro-life Toomey beat Sestak who was endorsed by the National Abortion Rights Action League. Tom Marino beat Congressman Carney who voted for Obama's health care law that contains no abortion restrictions. Carney had a poor scorecard from National Right to Life's PAC.
It was Lou Barletta's third run against Congressman Paul Kanjorski. Kanjorski chose to side with Obama's pro-abortion agenda and his health care fiasco. Seniors who lost their Medicare Advantage plans were not fooled by the Obama Health Care laws raid on Medicare and Kanjorski's attempt to trivialize it.

What does God know about loneliness?

Thoughts on Carney v. Marino Race by Jerry Birmelyn

I am sharing some of my thoughts on ... the 10th Congressional in northeast PA.

The incumbent, Chris Carney, is serving his second term, thanks to the poor behavior exhibited by his predecessor, Don Sherwood. He has since been clever enough to get re-elected in a GOP district by portraying himself as a "blue dog (conservative)" Democrat, while still having a voting record that is very liberal and in opposition to most 10th Congressional residents. Our local media doesn't challenge him at all and seldom reports on his voting record, so he has been able to deceive the public about the true nature of his votes.

Republican Tom Marino, answered a questionnaire from PA Family Institute,... but Carney did not.
I have also received an email from the American Family Association that lists 18 key votes by Carney, that you can see by going to:http://afaaction.net click on "Pennsylvania" and "House." There you will see in answers to issues .. that Carney has voted to restrict free speech in elections, expand federal gov. in education, support homosexuals serving in the military, Obamacare which includes federal funding for abortion among many other simply awful provisions and legislation that will lead to advocacy for same-sex marriages overseas. Not in this listing are his votes for the so-called "stimulus" legislation and Wall Street bailouts and many other similar huge spending bills that have caused our national debt to sky rocket out of control. So much for being a "blue dog."

His opponent, Tom Marino, is a former DA from Lycoming County and a former federal prosecutor. His positions are fairly conservative. I have attended meetings where he has reiterated these positions, so he is consistent in his public statements.

Tom's biggest challenge is to overcome his past association with a man, Lois DeNaples, who is quite controversial. Tom was employed by Mr. DeNaples after leaving the federal prosecutors office, to assist him with Mount Airy Lodge Casino. He has been attacked for that connection by Carney who is trying to make Marino "guilty by association." Carney has also made some charges about Marino being forced to leave office under a cloud of suspicion, but there is little evidence to support that claim and some evidence that it is really the opposite, that Marino served with distinction.

While I would not have gone to work for a man with the checkered past of Mr. DeNaples, especially in support of the gambling industry, I have to assess whether I want my Congressman to represent my values and what I think is best for the country. It is clear to me that Chris Carney has been supporting an agenda that is destroying the economic and moral fabric of our nation. He is a deceiver and lacks the character to defend his votes and, instead, has focused his campaign on attacking his opponent with peripheral issues.

When asked in a 2009 town hall meeting in Honesdale if he would vote for Obamacare if it allowed for federal funding of abortion, he stated that he would not. Yet, when presented with clear evidence (provided by several respected organizations) that this legislation did indeed provide for funding, he voted for it anyway and had the audacity to send out a press release stating the opposite:

"This bill also continues the longstanding ban on public funding for abortion, a factor that weighed heavily on my mind in recent days."

Yes, Tom Marino has some baggage ..., but when compared to the track record of Chris Carney and all the damage he has promoted, I see that my vote must be for Marino. Not only has Carney proven to be bad for this country, his re-election will be another vote for Pelosi and her ilk to continue their march towards more socialism and bigger government. Jerry Birmelin
