Hello, I’m from the government and I’m here to help.
Our “cash for clunkers” has proven to be so successful that we’ve decided to extend the program for cars – and for people. Of course there is no place to trade in your elderly, people, in other words, that have too much mileage on them. You cannot simply dump and deposit seniors in some lot, get cash for them, and then go home.
So as part of our new and improved healthcare bill, we’ve inaugurated a set-up where people over the age of 65 will be – speaking frankly – at the mercy of the government. Since we know best, we the government will decide who shall live and who shall die. If, for example, a person begins to stutter, or if, for example, a man or a woman has already served his or her purpose in life, well, it’s time to go.
Some people simply aren’t worth the bother.
Americans (old or even young) who walk too slow or suddenly need help tying their shoelaces are unnecessary and disposable. The fine print in our Bill takes care of such useless individuals. We will, in a word, refuse to provide the proper remedies to whatever ails these people. That’s in the program even in bold print.
We have heard rumors that some people are against this new and improved system. These people are obviously malcontents. We have no room for such people. In this America, there is no place for differences of opinion. We must all think alike! We urge you to tune in and learn from the experts, people like Al Gore and Bill Maher and Bill Moyers. They have all the answers.
Pay no attention to real doctors, like Dr. Zane F. Pollard who wrote an article online for the American Thinker. This is what he said in connection to the Obama/Congressional Healthcare Bill, “For those of you who are over 65, this Bill in its present form might be lethal for you. People in England over 59 cannot receive stents for their coronary arteries. The [American] government wants to mimic the British Plan.”
This doctor (along with many other doctors) disagrees with our Plan and therefore he must be crazy and therefore he must be reported.
We hope that you paid attention to what our Linda Douglass had to say about malcontents. She said, “If you get an email or see something on the Web about healthcare insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag/whitehouse.” Linda Douglass used to be a member of the press (ABC) and now she is a member of the government, which is actually the same thing.
The government and the press are all in this together. We are a team. This helps us all – all Americans -- to think alike.
Notice that when our beloved leader needs to make another speech the mainstream networks quickly hop-to. We are one nation under Obama.
We are happy to inform you that this administration is determined to stamp out any form of interference and discord. Can we do this? Yes we can!
The doctor who spoke up against us, please be sure to heed Ms. Douglass and report him immediately.
He and millions like him are a threat to the Collective. They are counter-revolutionaries. Please remember that we voted for Barack Obama to revolutionize America. We voted for this. We voted for change. Change is what we got. Be happy about this. Do not complain. In this America there is no place for dissent and there is no tolerance for individualism. Never mind Emerson and Thoreau. We do not need and we do not want free speech, not in this makeover.
People who complain about this program or any other program will have to answer to Linda Douglass, and that’s just for starters. We do not want to talk about what comes next. We will not mention other plans in the works, like sending malcontents to re-education camps and re-conditioning centers. These Americans must be re-programmed and re-tooled. (This is only for people who disagree with us.)
Obviously, they must be sick.
You, the American voter, have given us a fail-safe form of government. (Thank you, by the way, for letting us run the whole show with no possibility of checks and balances. We are liberals and this is our country! We barely allow others to visit so please shut up.) We are one Party and we can do whatever we want and if we want to pass this healthcare bill, we will do so even above the complaints of the contrarians.
We know exactly what to do with clunkers.

Report Your Neighbors If They Dissent on Obama’s HealthCare Package
By Jack Engelhard
The White House is asking us to inform on people who disrespect the current bill on health care, a bill which nobody has read in full – but never mind. According to reports in the news media, Americans are to be on alert for anything that sounds “fishy” in connection to this proposed legislation. In other words, if you, a walking-talking citizen, voice any sort of objection, you are to be reported.
As the official word has it, if you, an upstanding liberal loyalist find any email message that is deemed as “disinformation,” you are to notify the White House immediately. Some might refer to this sort of tattling as “White Terror” – a system once employed by the KGB to have neighbor spy against neighbor, in which case nobody can be trusted, hence the term “White Terror.”
This system is still in operation in Hugo Chavez’s Venezuela and has proved to be so successful that 100 radio stations have already been silenced and shut down.
George Orwell spoke about this in “1984” even though this is “2009.”
Some may refer to this as a chilling infringement on free speech but so what, the government knows what’s good for us, so please shut up.
Who needs free speech anyway?
If you complain about this or any other government legislation, or proposed legislation, then obviously you must be crazy or be some part of an organized conspiracy. Only the government is legitimate and only the government has all the answers. The news media will tell you all you need to know, from the government’s point of view.
Remember the new slogan – In Obama We Trust.
So as for you, a citizen – you are permitted to have no point of view (except maybe in private), so just shut up, please.
(Be careful even when you whisper. Someone may be listening.)
Town Hall meetings are set up for the single purpose of allowing your lawmakers to state their case WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. Your job is to listen and pay attention respectfully, even reverentially, even if you have no idea about what’s being said – and if you object to what’s being said then obviously you are part of a mob or part of some lunatic fringe.
Don’t be silly. That is, don’t be so silly as to expect your lawmakers to sign a bill and ACTUALLY read what they are signing – never mind the small print, even the big print is too much to ask. Rep. John Conyers says it’s ridiculous to expect congressmen to actually read legislation. Here is Conyers in his own words:
“I love these Members [of Congress] that get up and say ‘read the bill.’ Well, what good is it reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read the bill.” There you go, citizens, – it’s ridiculous to expect our lawmakers to know what laws they are making.
In the face of all this, there is absolutely no chance that you may have honest questions, concerns or grievances. You must be a bigot. You must be crazy. Or, you must be an old man or an woman who is afraid that under this proposed health care legislation – well, you will not necessarily be put to death BUT, the government will decide whether you may live or die.
Do not let this trouble you. You are in the hands of the government and the news media which means you are in good hands.
Who needs old people anyway?
How dare you speak up? Democrats control the entire White House and the entire Congress and we, we voted for this, a system without checks and balances, which means that this is the government we got and this is the government we deserve. Some might say that by voting for a single party to control EVERYTHING we have installed a tyranny. Not so. We elected people to speak for us and our job is never to talk back.
If anybody does talk back, be a good citizen, be a spy, and report on your neighbor. Make us proud.
