CHECK OUT THE LINK – IT IS EASY TO FLAG YOURSELF:

They want you to turn in your neighbor for speaking out against health care reform. Forget that. Turn yourself in. Let’s flood the snitch inbox everytime we think, say or write a negative thought about the legislation.

Think of it as reporting yourself to the local PD for speeding. We’d all be emailing about 5 times per day.

Operation Go Flag Yourself is already getting a huge response from bloggers. Michelle Malkin has reported herself. Now, so have I. Here’s the e-mail I sent to flag@whitehouse.gov:

Dear White House Snitch Czar,

I wish to turn myself in. I have negative feelings and thoughts about the health care legislation and I obviously have no idea what’s good for me. I realize now that I should leave highly personal health care decisions to the federal government instead. While I’m at it, I should also admit that I was and still am against the stimulus. I admit now that the federal government will probably spend my money better than I ever could.

I’d also like to turn in my friends and relatives, from whom I have heard what you have called “disinformation,” directly contradicting what the administration has been telling us. They embarrass themselves with their blatant opposition to President Obama and the Democratic Party. They flaunt their First Amendment rights as though they are entitled to them.

While I’m at it, I should mention that my doctor was saying negative things about the health care legislation. I also heard two ladies discussing it on the bus the other day with obvious reservations. I didn’t get their names, but it was the 156 Lasalle that left Union Station around 9 a.m. My dentist, florist and even a few co-workers have all been saying how they think the legislation is a bad idea. It’s all been in casual conversations, but I think that counts.

I wish to thank you for what you’re doing. People who have no idea what’s good for them may never admit it, so turning them in is really the only option. According to recent polls, there are 52% of such people out there, so you’ve got a lot of work to do.

Good luck.

To say that our health care issues are due to prosperity is laughable. Poverty rose under the bush administration by 26% from 2000 to 2005. That may be alright with you, but for the rest of us, depending on the kindness of others for charity is a joke — especially when we see the generous attitude of those people at the town hall meetings.

Now that the media is calling the right and private health insurance companies on their behavior and shown them for what they are, there is a tactic change — they want the deathers to APPEAR NON-THREATENING! APPEAR — what about be non-threatening? They have to pretend not to be inciting violence!

WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?

Yes, we have people dying from diseases that aren’t as common elsewhere. Like Diabetes and Heart Disease. But this is due to our prosperity, not our healthcare.

Please stop confusing insurance for healthcare.
Insurance is not a prerequisite for treatment.
You can go see your doctor and pay cash. You can work out a payment plan with the hospital.

We used to have this thing called “charity” that took care of people who couldn’t pay. If Government Spending wasn’t so out of control. we’d have it again.

We don’t want Government Mandates. We want choice in healthcare. Restoring the free market to healthcare is the only way to bring prices down and improve quality. Reward innovation, allow competition and we will have more affordable healthcare.

Today, we have price fixing by the government, and we are charged the highest price, not the lowest. The high cost of malpractice encourages wasteful defensive medicine. Mandated Insurance Coverages reduces choice and competition and raises premiums.

Unfortunately, ObamaCare addresses none of these issues and will raise the cost of healthcare even higher. Republicans are right to oppose this plan.

We have the 37th worst quality of healthcare in the developed world. Conservative estimates are that over 120,000 of you dies each year in America from treatable illness that people in other developed countries don’t die from. Rich, middle class, and poor a like. Insured and uninsured. Men, women, children, and babies. This is what being 37th in quality of healthcare means.

I know that many of you are angry and frustrated that REPUBLICANS! In congress are dragging their feet and trying to block TRUE healthcare reform. What republicans want is just a taxpayer bailout of the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT health insurance industry, and the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT healthcare industry. A trillion dollar taxpayer funded private health insurance bailout is all you really get without a robust government-run public option available on day one. Co-OP’s ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A GOVERNMENT-RUN PUBLIC OPTION. They are a fraud being pushed by the GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT health insurance industry that is KILLING YOU!

YOU CANT HAVE AN INSURANCE MANDATE WITHOUT A ROBUST PUBLIC OPTION. MANDATING PRIVATE FOR PROFIT HEALTH INSURANCE AS YOUR ONLY CHOICE WOULD BE A DISASTER AND UNETHICAL, CORRUPT, AND MORALLY REPUGNANT. AND PROBABLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL AS WELL.

These industries have been slaughtering you and your loved ones like cattle for decades for profit. Including members of congress and their families. These REPUBLICANS are FOOLS!

Republicans and their traitorous allies have been trying to make it look like it’s President Obama’s fault for the delays, and foot dragging. But I think you all know better than that. President Obama inherited one of the worst government catastrophes in American history from these REPUBLICANS! And President Obama has done a brilliant job of turning things around, and working his heart out for all of us.

But Republicans think you are just a bunch of stupid, idiot, cash cows with short memories. Just like they did under the Bush administration when they helped Bush and Cheney rape America and the rest of the World.

But you don’t have to put up with that. And this is what you can do. The Republicans below will be up for reelection on November 2, 2010. Just a little over 13 months from now. And many of you will be able to vote early. So pick some names and tell their voters that their representatives (by name) are obstructing TRUE healthcare reform. And are sellouts to the insurance and medical lobbyist.

Ask them to contact their representatives and tell them that they are going to work to throw them out of office on November 2, 2010, if not before by impeachment, or recall elections. Doing this will give you something more to do to make things better in America. And it will make you feel better too.

There are many resources on the internet that can help you find people to call and contact. For example, many social networking sites can be searched by state, city, or University. Be inventive and creative. I can think of many ways to do this. But be nice. These are your neighbors. And most will want to help.

I know there are a few democrats that have been trying to obstruct TRUE healthcare reform too. But the main problem is the Bush Republicans. Removing them is the best thing tactically to do. On the other hand. If you can easily replace a democrat obstructionist with a supportive democrat, DO IT!

You have been AMAZING!!! my people. Don’t loose heart. You knew it wasn’t going to be easy saving the World.

God Bless You
