What We Must Do! Obamacare: The New Vietnam

HELL NO,  IT WON'T GO!
No Where With ObamaCare! 
The Blueprint is there, it will just be a bit wrinkled. m/r

The American Spectator : Obamacare: The New Vietnam


By  on 10.17.13
Anti-war, civil rights movements a role model.
It was the law.
And liberals were determined to sabotage that law.
To hold America hostage — in the middle of a war no less — until the law was repealed. Until the war was stopped.
To do it, they used the Three C’s.
Civil Disobedience.
The Culture.
The Congress.
Let’s start with the law the Left was determined to overturn.
That would be the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, passed by Congress on August 10,1964 at the request of a popular president, Lyndon B. Johnson. The resolution authorized the president “to take all necessary steps, including the use of armed force, to assist any member or protocol state of the Southeast Asia Collective Defense Treaty requesting assistance in defense of its freedom.”
The vote? 416-0 in the House. And in the Senate? The resolution passed by a margin of 88-2.
The Vietnam War, already quietly humming along with some 16,000 U.S. advisers deployed, was now on. Big Time. And to say the least, the votes in Congress to stop the Vietnam War weren’t there.
In the aftermath of yesterday’s GOP cave to President Obama and the onrushing machinery of Obamacare, this is a moment to look back again on that most reliable of guides: history.
