Organizing for America, a propaganda arm of the Democratic
National Committee, is lying to Americans
about leftists' proposed so-called reforms of the healthcare
system.
As the Politico reports,
a new fundraising email from the group (full email
here) claims TV ads from Conservatives
for Patients' Rights are distorting President Obama's
Big Government healthcare proposals:
We knew healthcare reform would face fierce opposition -- and
it's begun. As we speak, the same people behind the notorious
"swiftboat" ads of 2004 are already pumping millions of dollars
into deceptive television ads. Their plan is simple: torpedo
healthcare reform before it sees the light of day by scaring
the public and distorting the President's approach.
We need the resources to take them head on with an urgent,
grassroots campaign to pass real healthcare reform in 2009.
When the swiftboaters flood the airwaves with distortions,
we'll flood the streets with volunteers armed with facts. When
they send lobbyists to tell Congress to back down, we'll send
millions of calls, letters, and stories from real Americans
asking them to stand up.
That ObamaCare, like HillaryCare before it, would destroy the
nation's healthcare system, is beyond dispute. It would turn
hospitals and doctors' offices into the DMV. Patients
would receive treatment --even in life-and-death
cases-- at the whim of bureaucrats, and would be forced to
line up to get it.
This
isnot
hyperbole. To make matters worse, Canada is being bankrupted
by its universal healthcare scheme and Canadians, including
politicians who routinely mouth platitudes in support of the
government-run system (e.g. billionaire MP
Belinda Stronach, former Quebec Premier Robert
Bourassa), routinely flee to the U.S. to receive
treatment they can't get in their own country.
Quebec, incidentally, doesn't even have an air ambulance system
to bring patients to emergency rooms, a fact that may have cost
British actress
Natasha Richardson her life. (Wild animals take priority over
people in Quebec. The provincial government does use
helicopters to air-drop rabies vaccine to
skunks).
Conservatives for Patients' Rights is trying to save Americans
from this socialist healthcare Hell by sharing the real-life
horror stories of physicians and patients in Britain and Canada.
