The Obama Administration Is An Abortion of The American Tradition

(In case anyone wonders what I mean by the American tradition, it is defined in our sidebar. All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth, were born with the same inalienable rights, to life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.)


So, Obamacare is going to pay for abortions, huh?

Well, then I submit to you two videos, the first from the Sex Pistols, performing "Bodies" live in Dallas, circa 1978:






Here are the lyrics:

She was a girl from birmingham
She just had an abortion
She was a case of insanity
Her name was pauline she lived in a tree
She was a no one who killed her baby
She sent her letters from the country
She was an animal she was a bloody disgrase

Body Im not an animal
Body Im not an animal

Dragged on a table in factory
Illegitimate place to be
In a packet in a lavatory
Die little baby screaming fucking bloody mess
Its not an animal its an abortion

Body Im not animal
Mummy Im not an abortion

Throbbing squirm, gurgling bloody mess
Im not an discharge, Im not a loss in
Protein, Im not a throbbing squirm

Fuck this and fuck that fuck it all and
Fuck the fucking brat
She dont wanna baby that looks like that
I dont wanna baby that looks like that
Body Im not an animal
Body Im not an abortion

Body Im not an animal
An animal
Im not an animal...
Im not an abortion...

Mummy! ugh!

The second video is from PJ Harvey, performing "Down By The Water":



Here are the lyrics:

I lost my heart, under the bridge
To that little girl, so much to me
And now I moan, and now I holler
She'll never know, just what I found

That blue eyed girl, she said "No more"
That blue eyed girl, became blue eyed whore
Down by the water, I took her hand
Just like my daughter, I'll see her again

Oh, help me, Jesus, come through the storm
I had to lose her, to do her harm
I heard her holler, I heard her moan
My lovely daughter, I took her home

Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water
Come back here, man, gimme my daughter

Will our country become China? Will our country mandate population control through "passive Euthanasia", which inevitably results from bureaucratic panels determining whose life is viable according to cost analysis. Will bureaucratic panels determining how many children our "environment" and our "economy" can sustain?

I don't want to find out.


In our current system, the Insurance companies already attempt to ration healthcare. I have, personally, been the victim of this. When I was 27 I was having terrible chest pains complete with numbness and pain down my left arm. A physician administered an EKG to me and determined that my heart had damage consistent with "having suffered multiple heart attacks already." He told me, in no uncertain words that I "would be dead by the time you're are 35-40 years of age."


He wrote me a prescription for a visit to a Cardiologist. The insurance company I was with (an HMO) told me the Cardiologist was booked two months out, so I would have to wait.


So, I demanded the HMO release my EKG into my possession, and I paid my old time family physician out of my own pocket to read the EKG for me.


His diagnosis of the same EKG was absolutely different. I do have a congenital defect in my heart, which is, as I understand it, electrical in nature. One side of my heart does not pump as strongly as the other. My family Doctor explained to me that that was likely the cause, along with stress, of my chest pains. He said that from having read my EKG.


To be sure, he ordered a Stress EKG for me.


When I went in for the Stress EKG, I was experiencing a full-fledged panic attack, brought on by the chest pains which were, by then, almost constant. My blood pressure was skyrocketing.


They hooked me up to the EKG machine, and put me on a treadmill, and had me running uphill.


After having run uphill for five minutes, my blood pressure had actually gone down. And, the resultant EKG readings proved that my heart was strong.


However, it really did not matter to my HMO. I would have had to wait for two months for an appointment, had I listened to them.


The point is, even in an HMO, one presumably has a Physician who is a compassionate intermediary between himself and the cost analysis people. (Clearly, that was not the case in my situation. My Physician seemed completely dispassionate on the subject of whether I, a young man, would live or die - you should have heard the ridiculously happy voice in which he delivered my inevitable death sentence).


I do not trust our bloated government as far as I can throw them on this point. I do not believe they would allow a compassionate Physician to be my intermediary. And, clearly, according to Obama's plan, ultimately, we would all be on the government plan.


Many of us would be determined to be expendable for cost analysis reasons.

Bodies, I am not an animal.


Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water, come back here and give me my daughter.
