Barack Obama's HHS Secretary -- Katherine "Plan B" Sebelius -- followed orders to a tee this morning, Sergeant Schultz-style. She announced that America needs socialized medicine because, well, she just made some s*** up.
In her honor, I created this motivational poster that I hope you will copy and forward.
Could a single member -- just one! -- of our beloved mainstream media ask Sebelius how we will pay for the $57 trillion in unfunded entitlement programs... before we create a gigantic new entitlement program?That $57 trillion represents $190,000 for every man, woman and child in the United States at this very moment!
How are we gonna pay for that? Any of you drones care to explain the magic behind the madness?
Cue the crickets.
Check out some of the recent headlines from the U.K. and its "National Health Service" (NHS). This is the type of system that Obama, "Plan B" and the rest of the Democrat-Statists intend to implement. Feel better yet?
