Rush: If ObamaCare Repeal Fails, ‘We Go Egypt on Obama’

Commence liberal outrage in 3… 2… 1… (h/t DailyRushbo)


CALLER: If nothing changes as a result of the recent elections, and the Tea Party doesn’t get what they want, Rush, what happens next?

RUSH LIMBAUGH: Then more Republicans get defeated in 2012. And Obama, of course, loses, but more Republicans get defeated in 2012 as well. This is something that, you know, let me put it to you in terms you can understand, all right? Final comment of the day during the substantive programming content portion of the program. After the election in November, repeal Obamacare, defund it all, doesn’t happen, number of other things that voters who sent all these freshmen to Washington to stop, arrest, cease and desist, if it doesn’t happen, we go Egypt on Obama.

I tell you, folks, if it all bombs out, if all these promises — look, if the attempt is not even made to defund Obamacare, repeal it or whatever, then we go Egypt on Obama in the next election. That’s what happens next. And, by the way, Obama can’t complain if we go Egypt on him because he said that’s how democracy works, that’s what he said on Friday. This is the way real democracy works, so he can’t complain if it happens to him, and it will.

    Here comes a new double back spin in the POTUS blame game to satisfy all the libs and the tanker press until the peaceful and insignificant, secular Brotherhood crashes their elitist neighborhoods and be-heads a few of their women. How’s that for violent rhetoric? They are here, they are armed and they have pledged to kill us infidels. Lock and load, America! Rocks and sticks aren’t enough here.

    Well no worries then Rush–Republicans already tried to repeal Obamacare and it failed; they tried, which is all you said you wanted, an honest try.

    But in all honesty, lol–even as “dedicated” as the Tea Party is, I don‘t think the’re Egyptian protester status fierce. And besides, isn’t conflating healthcare reform and 30 years of autocratic rule, elections fraud, and police brutality a little extreme? Obama’s healthcare reform, no matter what you think of it, is HARDLY 30 years of repressive tyranny.

      You’re correct. Why have tyranny when you can have a control over people’s lives while making them pay for it against their will… and it’s for all of eternity, so to speak, not just 30 years.

      “Love” you “avatar”; visit the country i am from (former USSR), they’ve always loved useful idiots. Oh, and they used to have their own “obamacare” but it didn’t turn out too well for them.

      Rush answered that one in Jan. and most Tea Partiers agree. Don’t just try & fail, bring it up every week until they get tired of debating about it and pass it Then add it to every Senate Bill, that comes on the floor until they give up and repeal it.
      Maybe they can pull a Pelosi, and refuse to do anything else until it passes.

      No…. but it‘ll usher in 30 years of IMF Tyranny to pay off the bankruptcy of the US treasury that Obamacare will bring about in less than a decade’s time (unless of course overwhelming the capatilist system was the plan from the get go). The cost for Obamacare is being vastly underestimated (scored)…everytime the CBO revises the numbers they go nowhere but up……right now with the DR fix they are saying 1.4T per year with the first 4 years of the plan paid into without paying out a dime in benifits…the last 6 years of the 10 year paln will run a huge deficit…nevermind what the costs will be in the second decade…some are saying as high as 3.5T per year without taking any other expense (the budget) into account. A yearly expenditure of this magnitude is utter lunacy by anyones standard. The costs of Health Care were not addressed in Obamacare…not a single common sense idea was adopted…the Republicans and the public were completely frozen out…….and liberals wonder why so many ordinary citizens are disgusted and appalled ?

      @OPTIMISTICALLYPESSIMISTICREALIST.
      The Soviet Union did not collapse, and wasn’t awful, because it had universal healthcare–the Soviet Union was awful, and collapsed, because it was led by a psychotic schizophrenic for much of its history who established a legacy of entrenched and unaccountable “closed circuit” elites as leaders without incentives for them to provide good policy.

      @PUDDLE DUCK
      1. We OWN the IMF–we fund about half it’s operation budget and loan fund, and besides that only Americans are eligible to be IMF President. What you’ve said is silly, but if it came down to it, we have more than fair claim to raid the IMF.
      2. Our national debt is much smaller as a percentage of GDP than most industrialized nations’. Even if the nominal value of our debt remains the same, the real value, in contemporary purchasing power, erodes as a function of time due to inflation. Governments, unlike individuals, are continuous. To give you some perspective the annual federal deficit for this year is 9.2% of the same year’s GDP. And the TOTAL debt, which is ALL the money we owe as a federal government for ALL Bush’s wars in the last decade AND Obamacare AND TARP AND the stimulus, AND the auto-bailouts, AND all the other programs, not to mention the growing (demographically inevitable) draw on Medicare and Social Security as the inevitable tide of retirement continues, the TOTAL DEBT since Clinton, when we started taking on debt, is ALMOST the same value as what we made THIS YEAR. That’s, what, 2 DECADES of debt, and we make that in a single year…not an issue. Yeah, you should watch it, yeah if you‘ve had payment reliability problems then it’s an issue, but the U.S. has never missed a payment–we have a platinum credit line, we don’t have to be such conservative ninnies economically, we have tremendous economic power.

    Oh how Rush loves to weave an aggrivating comment. I hear heads exploding right now and I have to say, it causes a bit of a chuckle.
    But he’s right. If things don‘t change and our public servants don’t start listening to what We the People are demanding of them, in 2012 we will do to them as Egypt demanded of their dictatorial leadership. We will stand up and demand that they leave, by voting someone else into those positions.
    So when we stand up and demand Obama’s departure from the Office of the Presidency, he’ll be proud of us for standing up against him, right? He’ll smile deep inside, just knowing that We the People stood up and exerted our right to overthrow our sitting government by the vote of the American people!
    So in 2012 I encourage us all to take to the streets and gather in number at our polling places and make sure that we excercise our right to vote! Make sure that each and every one of US are heard!
    They’ll all be so proud of US :P

      But, with computerized voting machines, who’s writing the programming that records the votes? Remember all the people in NV who found machines with votes already recorded. We found out in 08 that the machines OH uses were made in “Venzuela” and insisted on a paper copy of our votes, but like was posted above and attributed to Soros, it’s who counts the votes that matters. and Al Franken taught us to add, and recounts, and decides what gets counted and recounted, ad infinitum!

      But Obamacare still needs to go away regardless of what Rush says or does in his free time. Its a bill that the Senate didn’t even intend on having as the actual law. The House was forced into passing it “as is” because they couldn’t send it back to the Senate with changes due to the election of Brown.

      If Obama was smart, both politically and socially, he’d lead the charge to overturn/replace it.

      It has become a needlessly divisive issue that is hampering Obama on every level of governing.

      True, Obama most likely will declare the elections null and void, or the Senate will attempt to defeat them just as it attempted to do so when Bush took the 2000 elections; I hope it does not come to the ‘over my dead body’ moment, yet somehow I feel that an event is coming soon – maybe in the next few weeks, that he will use as a state of emergency and overturn the courts and civil rights via the executive order fiat.

      That being said, I think you hit the nail on the head about creating unrest now in case of a loss. In WI, the new governor has been in place for less than 2 months, and already he‘s had to talk to the National Guard about possible unrest over state worker’s unions having to pay for (gasp) SOME of their health care premiums.

      I would also say that we’ve seen it before. When the left loses, it’s like a 2 year old the size of Illinois stamping its feet and crying, “no fair!” Just look at 2000 and 2004.

      I hate to contradict Rush, but we need to be reminded that every other Democracy on Earth has something like “Obama Care.” Universal health care is not an extremist idea but one that Presidents – both Democrats and Republicans – have been try to put into place for at least 60 years. Massachusetts has a similar law already in effect on the state level.

      Preventing an insurance company from dropping your insurance when you get sick isn’t a radical concept. Requiring insurance companies to not deny health care to your child born with some condition – pre-existing condition – isn’t radical. If you lose your job, get another one, you can’t be denied now and forever more from insurance because you have high blood pressure. That’s not a radical idea. Every other democracy in the world embraces these ideas.

      But Rush is suggesting we overthrow the government for adopting a watered down version of what every other industrialized country in the world provides their people. I agree. Any government that prevents insurance companies from denying you or your family or your newborn from coverage any time they have an expensive condition to treat (which would reduce their record high profits) should be overthrown.

      It greatly saddens me to have to declare this, but, Obammy care ain’t getting repealed. Ever. People need to come to grips with the fact that The United State of America, as we knew it, is over. I don’t like it any more than you do. I’ve been waxing nostalgic for those ultra conservative CLINTON years. Just like in Rome, they’ll keep the Senate in place to give us the illusion of representation, but, the book’s already been written. Even if we (Republicans) sweep the next election, they ain’t repealing Obammycare. It was a crucial powergrab that the powers that be needed for further enslavement the masses. Here’s how it will eventually work: No one will be able to afford health insurance (by design), so private health insurace will cease to exist, and everyone will be required by law to be on Medicaid. Children and pregnant women will be fully covered, and everyone else will be basically covered. If you need optical or dental work, you’ll pay it all out of pocket. If you require any medical attention, the State will pay for it (up to a point) and then when you die, your assets will be liquidated and confiscated by State to repay what they spent on your care. It‘s what’s already happening to Medicaid recipients now, but will eventually (in 10 or 20 years) be expanded to everyone. Not a pretty picture, but, an impending reality. I’m just the messenger. Don’t blame me.

      If people decide to go Egypt on Obama, then they’d best be doing it for the “all” of the right reasons, not just based on this one concept.
      There is a much bigger picture here, and it involves much more than this insurance scam. :(

      @jzs,

      “Preventing an insurance company from dropping your insurance when you get sick … Requiring insurance companies to not deny health care to your child born with some condition – pre-existing condition … If you lose your job, get another one, you can’t be denied now and forever more from insurance because you have high blood pressure. That’s not a radical idea.”

      But those ARE extremely radical ideas. What you don’t understand is that insurance is NOT supposed to be available all the time – that’s not how insurance works. It’s only supposed to be available SOMETIMES.

      Denying insurance coverage for pre-existing conditions makes A LOT of sense. Other people are paying for someone else’s coverage, and health care DOES cost money because it does cost the health care worker time and resources; Which is also why health care is NOT a right.

      Health insurance keeps going up because of frivolous lawsuits and overregulation of the health care industry. To make health care cheaper – just like how you make anything else cheaper – the market must be free to allow what ANYONE who works for money does – including health care workers – innovate for their own benefit. And yes, health care is a for-profit industry – no one is going to provide health care if they’re not getting paid.

He won’t even acknowledge the Tea Party showed up to protest the healthcare bill, he won’t acknowledge Beck drew hundreds of thousands, so if people showed up to “Go Egypt”, he would simply fly somewhere else, and put his fingers in his ears and say “Lie, Lie Lie Lie Lie” until the bad people go away. Then fly somewhere and have a big rah rah rally to tell him how special he is. That is our President, that is our Govt.

      Please, please learn about the healthcare coverage you have, if you have employer coverage, or if you have a fully insured policy. The only way that this administration sold this outrage to the American People at all is that people DO NOT know what the insurance they have provides. The only additional thing people received is that their children could be covered until age 26……big deal, they have been covered on fully insured policies for years until the age of 25. This gives you NOTHING else. Put a newborn on parent’s insurance within 30 days of birth, its covered period. Change jobs with less than a 63 day break in service, your covered with NO pre-existing conditions. Pre-existing conditions only apply if the condition is something you were treated for 3-6 months before becoming covered on new policy and didn’t have insurance before–then the pre-existing limitation only lasted 6-12 months. This is the biggest HOAX that I have ever seen perpetrated on Americans. They could not have done it if people understood their health insurance coverage!!!

      I hate to contradict Rush, but we need to be reminded that every other Democracy on Earth has something like “Obama Care.” Universal health care is not an extremist idea but one that Presidents – both Democrats and Republicans – have been try to put into place for at least 60 years. Massachusetts has a similar law already in effect on the state level.

      ***********
      Does every other country have all those thousands of new IRS agents as part of their Universal health care, with the power to withdraw from your bank accounts if they don‘t think you’re paying for the right kind of coverage or paying the right amount for your treatment? That’s only one of the little nuggets hidden in this “People Control” bill, and if d‘s and r’s have both been trying to get it for 60 yrs, I say, it was time for TEA over 60 yrs ago.,

      Here’s an idea, maybe our Freedom Square should be whereever they’d go to take him the order to declare Martial Law. Then, like in Cairo, just everyone camp out and see how much better the country works, when he’s off somewhere with his fingers in his ears, instead of whereever he prefers to read his tele-prompter.
      Let’s face it, they’re trying to encourage an Egypt style demonstration so that they can declare Martial Law: No elections, president for life! Soros saves millions, and they don’t have to swat us gnats who show up at Town Halls to upset their prepared speeches.
      Sorry folks, the balls in God’s Court now, if we’re going to come out of this with the country as we knew it, it’s because He wants to protect His own from whatever they have planned for us, and I‘d bet it’s a lot more like Iran or Yemen than Egypt.

      Hey, Rush stole my comments. I suggested the very same thing over a week ago. Ah hell, I like Rush so I’m gonna let him keep it ;-)

      Kidding aside… the left is trying to use all that’s happening in the world as leverage to nudge young progressives and anarchists into the streets. This is when we as a group (patriotic conservatives) have to put-up or shut-up. If the left goes all “Revolution in the streets” on us, it may fall to us to stop them. If Obama uses the federal government to stop their rioting, Obama will institute a clamp-down on civil liberties like nothing this country has ever seen. This will be his ‘excuse’ moment to take full control. Somehow, we have to stop the left from hitting the streets. This way Obama has no reason to call out the dogs.

      Just “food for thought”, with the whole idea being to keep us from being the main course!

      Freedom = Responsibility 
      Responsibility = Freedom

      It is not Governments (the peoples) job to take your personal responsibility of taking care of yourself. That is your freedom and your responsibility that God gave YOU. If you give Government (the people) your responsibility, Government will therefore obtain your rights for we the people (Government) are paying for it. 

      Yes insurance is a great big scam and saving lives became a profit business. But there are great kings as John Huntsman Sr who will help anyone he can for he loves his neighbor (Charity). 

      Government caused saving lives to be a profit making business. Regulation, Intrusion, Lawsuits, etc…… Your solution is to run to the one that caused the problem……or in big boy talk, doing the something over and over expecting a different solution. The solution is to return saving lives as Ben Franklin intended, Charity……..Think about it…….

      To “Go Egypt” on Obama would require the same type of coordinated organization and financing the “Egyptians” had. Some believe the RIOTS were taken over by people added from elsewhere. This is based on the fact that the Rioters were said to have the same blankets and supplies. Who fed all those OVER A MILLION peope? Where did they go to the bathroom? The stores were CLOSED. Did they ever shower? Change clothes? Americans will NOT “riot” and be hungry, unable to be clean and comfortable; and uncomfortably constipated. WE are too far beyond that. Besides, let TANKS show up and see how many remain. Won’t happen. SOMEBODY PROVIDED FOR THE EGYPTIAN RIOTERS and I venture it was Obama’s fellow “Brother of the Hood”; you, know, the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD” Obama SAID he will stand with the Muslims.

      It is absolutely imperative that we defund Barack Obama’s 2,700-page monstrosity of a “Health Care”/Redistribution of Wealth scheme!

      Of course, health care premiums are far too high for far too many Americans – especially those in the Individual and Small Business markets – but simple and obvious solutions can be made. Just one common-sense measure of allowing Americans to purchase health care across state lines alone would diminish these current health care monopolies and create competition. As with any product, the more competition, the lower the costs.

      OUT with Barack Obama’s fake monstrosity of a “Health Care Reform” bill and IN with simple, common-sense measures!
