Health bills fail to block illegals from coverage
Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants could receive health care coverage from their employers under the bills winding their way through Congress, despite President Obama's explicit pledge that illegal immigrants would not benefit.
Democrats who wrote the House bill said that employer coverage for illegal immigrants is not intentional, but rather the outcome of people breaking the law.
How to deal with immigrants, both legal and illegal, remains one of the thorniest issues in the health care debate. In his address to a joint session of Congress in September, Mr. Obama specifically challenged Republicans who said his plans would extend coverage to illegal immigrants.
"This, too, is false -- the reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally," Mr. Obama said.
You know that we are on the winning side of this issue when Obama and Pelosi will publicly denounce the idea of intentionally giving health insurance to illegal aliens. You know that we have a problem with our Republic when the politicians privately scheme to contravene their public statements.

So are you saying that this is somehow a new development in the history of our Republic, or are you just now figuring this out?
Either way, you're an idiot. And no, I didn't just figure that out.
Frankly, I tell the staffers that answer the phones in Wyden and Merkley's office that I wish them the best after their bosses get fired by the voters, and they are unemployed in Barrack Obama's economy.
Too bad Barry got high the day the taught econ 101 at occidental college.
IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT THROUGH ATTRITION! THIS SOVEREIGN NATION DISPARATELY NEEDS MANDATORY E-VERIFY! IT MUST BE COMPULSORY, NOT TEMPORARY OR AT THE EMPLOYERS DISCRETION? IT MUST BE FOR EVERYBODY WHO WORKS? In time unable to find a job, illegal workers in large and small business will leave. Criminal penalties for--NOT--installing E-Verify must be extremely severe for incorrigible companies who think they are above the law. ONLY CITIZENS AND LEGAL IMMIGRANTS NEED APPLY!
TODAY! GET--YOUR--POSTCARD WRITTEN OR PHONE WASHINGTON. TELL FAMILY MEMBERS, FRIENDS, CO-WORKERS TO DO THE SAME? ANOTHER AMNESTY WILL DECIMATE CITIZENS AND LEGAL LOW INCOME WORKERS. THOUSANDS LEGITIMIZED IN AGRICULTURE WILL VACATE THEIR JOBS AND HEAD FOR MAINSTREAM EMPLOYMENT, AS HAPPENED IN 1986. MILLIONS MORE WILL APPEAR ACROSS THE UNDERMANNED BORDER, AND AS SUSPICIOUS TOURIST FROM EVERY POOR COUNTRY BY JET. WE WILL BE OVERWHELMED ONCE DEMOCRATS PROCLAIM THE IMMINENT COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM.
The open border movement has started a relentless campaign for approval of another disastrous AMNESTY, by sending postcards to Washington. Anti-illegal immigration, pro-sovereignty organizations are intending to fight. They state--NO--Comprehensive Immigration Reform. No BLANKET AMNESTY. Patriotic opponents of AMNESTY should call their politician at 202-224-3121, or go to offices in person. GOOGLE---NUMBERSUSA that will illuminate your misgivings on the issue of illegal immigrant costs, Sanctuary State policies, with expenditures on health care, education, prison, along with enforcement gradings of those in Washington. CAPSWEB will explain irreversible population growth in California and nationwide. Other sites of interest on Immigration enforcement is ALIPAC and AMERICAN PATROL and THE DARK SIDE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. OH! YES! DON'T FORGET THE 28 CENTS POSTCARD TO THOSE WHO THINK THEY CONTROL US.
I wonder if the house will apologize to Rep. Joe Wilson for telling the truth? Not fucking likely. When Obama's lips are moving, he is lying. I would prefer he not say a damn word. Those criminals in DC don't give a shit if we have jobs, health care or are dead. All they care about is money and power. In a sane world 95% of them would be in prison for life.
Non-partisan fact-checking organizations and the Congressional Budget Office determined at the time that Obama, in fact, was telling the truth, and that it was Wilson who was wrong -- at least insofar as HR 3200 was concerned, but that is beside the point: Wilson was not rebuked because he was telling the truth or because was thought to have lied himself; he was rebuked because he violated rules established by the political body in which he served. Bottom line: He was rude. He was childish. He was an asshole on the floor of the Congress during a national televised presidential address -- and then went on to use his notoriety as a fundraising tool, a move reeking of cynicism and political opportunism. Let's not rewrite history, Dave. Your man fucked up. Get over it.
If those jerks in DC think I will contribute one thin dime for abortion they have another thing coming. Obama better get those shovels ready to build the prisons.
ANON 4:56 PM.
That is technically correct. However, the bill did not check for US citizenship. The reason we have jails is because people do not follow the laws. Do you think the criminal aliens or our government will make sure only Americans will get the health care? You are a fool if you believe that.
He was telling the truth. If you don't believe it, find in that bill where it checks for US citizenship. Criminal aliens get a lot of public money that they ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO GET AND THEY GET IT ANYWAY. He was not rude. He was speaking for me in the people's house. The reason Joe Wilson as you say used his notoriety as a fund raising tool, is because a lot of us Americans are pissed off about the way the country is being run, the lies that are being told and the theft of our money. Our country is being bankrupt right before our eyes and you simply say obama was not lying.
You need to take off your rose colored glasses, Obama is a liar of the first class. He has promised everything to everyone and is now breaking every promise except taking his wife to dinner. America is taking it in the ass because of him. We are not even getting to use lube, we are just getting fucked.
You have just lived that history and you are still trying to rewrite it instead of learning it. You must be a graduate of the fucked up schools in the last few years. Your man obama lied, get over it. There will be a lot more. When his lips are moving, he is lying. He was an attorney and he's a politician from chicago. Chicago is one of the most corrupt places in the country. Use your common sense.
One last thing anon 4:56 PM that I almost forgot. It is the FACT that obama's illegal alien aunt was living in public housing. Now you are telling me she won't get health care paid for by US taxpayers. The criminal aliens are stealing from our children and you don't even know it's happening. You are a typical liberal, mentally ill.
