Beck ran video clips of these individuals and quoted from their works. He connected organizations by identifying specific individuals who have participated in them. He informed America which is something so many of us have struggled to accomplish. I have written at length about these influences from as early as 28 October 2008 and will not reiterate them here. But Beck has the ear of the White House, I do not. He presented a series of reasonable questions that any decent journalist would ask and any transparent administration would answer. The White House offered that Peter Orszag is not a czar because he was confirmed by the Senate. Thanks for that clarification guys. Left-wing bloggers pointed out a misspelling.

Obviously, some of us are aware of the raging battle for liberty and have been throwing our hat in the ring whenever possible. What about the moderates and the disengaged? When will they break for a side and really shift momentum? What will it take for them to look up from their daily lives and engage in decisions which will impact their ability to ever again be submersed in their individualism?

Now that we know the facts of who is influencing policy, I pose a question to Obama supporters of 2008; is this what he promised you? Did he tell you he would appoint communists, socialists, and anti-capitalists to key advisory roles? Did he tell you he would consult with views of population control, internet police, placing a dollar value on human life, and global governance for the environment? Did he tell you these things? Are these the platform pieces that attracted your vote?

If so, stand proudly for these ideals as you have that right. If not, call your representatives, write them to express your concern, email them. You will not sound crazy! These are facts!  Always be respectful but brief when writing them.

Our hands are bound by the Constitution until election-day but these leftist ideals cannot infiltrate further. The People’s power rests within the States and the Congress which have checks on the Executive Branch. They cannot allow this administration to advance policy. 

Let your voice be heard.

THE PRESIDENT (continuing) “Now, I actually think that the tougher issue around medical care — it’s a related one — is what you do around things like end-of-life care.”

NYT: “Yes, where it’s $20,000 for an extra week of life.”

THE PRESIDENT: “Exactly. And I just recently went through this. I mean, I’ve told this story, maybe not publicly, but when my grandmother got very ill during the campaign, she got cancer; it was determined to be terminal. And about two or three weeks after her diagnosis she fell, broke her hip. It was determined that she might have had a mild stroke, which is what had precipitated the fall.

So now she’s in the hospital, and the doctor says, Look, you’ve got about — maybe you have three months, maybe you have six months, maybe you have nine months to live. Because of the weakness of your heart, if you have an operation on your hip there are certain risks that — you know, your heart can’t take it. On the other hand, if you just sit there with your hip like this, you’re just going to waste away and your quality of life will be terrible.

And she elected to get the hip replacement and was fine for about two weeks after the hip replacement, and then suddenly just — you know, things fell apart.

I don’t know how much that hip replacement cost. I would have paid out of pocket for that hip replacement just because she’s my grandmother. Whether, sort of in the aggregate, society making those decisions to give my grandmother, or everybody else’s aging grandparents or parents, a hip replacement when they’re terminally ill is a sustainable model, is a very difficult question. If somebody told me that my grandmother couldn’t have a hip replacement and she had to lie there in misery in the waning days of her life — that would be pretty upsetting.”

NYT: “And it’s going to be hard for people who don’t have the option of paying for it.”

THE PRESIDENT: “So that’s where I think you just get into some very difficult moral issues. But that’s also a huge driver of cost, right?

I mean, the chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80 percent of the total health care bill out here.”

NYT: “So how do you — how do we deal with it?”

THE PRESIDENT: “Well, I think that there is going to have to be a conversation that is guided by doctors (E. Emanuel, Complete Lives System), scientists (J. Holdren, population control), ethicists (et al). And then there is going to have to be a very difficult democratic conversation that takes place (town hall meetings). It is very difficult to imagine the country making those decisions just through the normal political channels (clear & concise legislation, Cass Sunstein). And that’s part of why you have to have some independent group that can give you guidance (HR3200, Sec. 1233, Advance Care Planning). It’s not determinative, but I think has to be able to give you some guidance. And that’s part of what I suspect you’ll see emerging out of the various health care conversations that are taking place on the Hill right now (yep).”

Admittedly, the President never suggested unplugging grandma but he admits openness to “society making those decisions.” He has appointed advisors sympathetic to cost-benefit planning and attempted to railroad a bill through congress for his signature three weeks ago. HR3200 and the appointee charged with its execution, Cass Sunstein, hardly ride the cusp of constitutional prudence.

On 30 October 2008, Obama said “we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” Just flip two words…”transforming fundamentals” is really what he told you.
