Obama goes Atlas Shrugged in health care debate
Today, President Obama, our Dear Leader, has declared that health care is a moral obligation. He held a conference call with 1000 rabbis, and after telling them he’d love to hold more calls like this to talk about Israel (because he’s such a big fan don’tcha know!) he then pressed them to lead the charge in the moral obligation of health care coverage.

President Obama sought Wednesday to reframe the health care debate as “a core ethical and moral obligation,” imploring a coalition of religious leaders to help promote the plan to lower costs and expand insurance coverage for all Americans.
“I know there’s been a lot of misinformation in this debate, and there are some folks out there who are frankly bearing false witness,” Mr. Obama told a multidenominational group of pastors, rabbis and other religious leaders who support his goal to remake the nation’s health care system.
Politico adds these quotes:
“These are all fabrications that have been put out there in order to discourage people from meeting what I consider to be a core ethical and moral obligation: that is that we look out for one another, that I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper. In the wealthiest nation on earth right now, we are neglecting to live up to that call,” Obama said.
We are God’s partners in matters of life and death,” Obama said during the call with Jewish leaders, according to a post on Twitter by Washington-area Rabbi Jack Moline.
I’m not even sure what to make of that super creepy last quote – maybe Ezekiel Emanuel and his DEATH CHART can add some more clarity?
Folks -we are truly living in the world of Atlas Shrugged -as John Galt said in his radio speech:
And then there’s your ‘brother-love’ morality. Why is it moral to serve others, but not yourself? If enjoyment is a value, why is it moral when experienced by others, but not by you? Why is it immoral to produce something of value and keep it for yourself, when it is moral for others who haven’t earned it to accept it? If it’s virtuous to give, isn’t it then selfish to take?
I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.
We must take the same oath that John Galt did – before it is too late…
Watch this video – we are living Ayn Rand’s frightening future-world of Atlas Shrugged! Wake your friends and neighbors before it’s too late!
