Thanks to everyone who attended our protest of Steny Hoyer on the 22nd. Over 125 people were there thanks to our efforts and those of two other conservative groups.

The September 12 national tea party in Washington D.C. is fast approaching. Keep this important event in mind as the date approaches.

Steny Hoyer Protest

The far-left is faltering. But this is no time to stop. It is now more important than ever to make sure our representatives know how we feel.
We will be protesting at Steny Hoyer's office on August 22. Not only is he a leader of the push for nationalized health care, but has publicly accused our entire movement of being un-american.
We will be at his Waldorf office from noon to three. Everyone is welcome but we would appreciate if you emailed us an RSVP to let us know you are joining us.
Carl Zimmerman has created a facebook page for our group, please take the time to join it when you have the chance.

Here are the health care talking points we went over.

The Government Option is not about improving health.

• It is clear American health care is the best in the World.
• The US enjoys strikingly higher survival rates for common cancers than all other developed nations.
• The United States has higher survival rates for all four major cancer killers (colon, lung, breast and prostate) than any European nation. According to the national center for policy analysis Breast cancer mortality is 52% higher in Germany than in the United States, and 88% higher in the United Kingdom. Prostate cancer mortality is 604% higher in the U.K. and 184% higher in Canada.
• An American man has a 66% chance of surviving a malignancy, the European average for malignancy survival is only 47%, meaning one is more likely to die.

The United States has the most important health care in the World.

• The top five American hospitals conduct more clinical trials than all the hospitals in any other single developed country.
• In only five of the last 34 years did a scientist living in America not win or share part of the Nobel Prize in Medicine.
• American ingenuity is vital to the human race’s betterment of existence. If American healthcare is brought down to the level of Europe’s, hopes of curing cancers or diseases like MS, and finding causes for disabilities such as autism become far less likely.

Liberal Claims of Scores of Uninsured are false

• The 46 million uninsured (always claimed to be 50) is made up of non-citizens, people already eligible for government programs, people of incomes above $75,000 a year or are uninsured for less than four months.
• Both the Congressional Budget Office and the Congressional Research Service place the actual number at approximately 9 million or 3% of the total population.
• Statistics Canada reports that 3% of the Canadian population’s only access to healthcare is through the emergency room.

Prostate mortality is 184% higher in Canada than in the US and 604% higher in the UK. The national cancer institute predicts 27,360 deaths from prostate cancer in 2009. That number multiplied by 1.84 is 50,342, by 6.04 is 165,254. If healthcare quality in the US drops to the level of Canada 22,982 more men would be much more likely to die of prostate cancer each year. If it drops to the level of Britains 137,894 men (The cost of the battle of Gettysburg*2.4) would be much more likely to lose their lives each year.

Obama has been an advocate for a single payer system and an end to employer coverage for his entire political career.

Government Health Care is a direct threat to freedom and the pursuit of happiness in the United States of America. These bullet points describe inclusions in the current house bill.

• On page 16 of the bill it is made clear once any aspect of your coverage changes you will be put on the public option and not allowed to leave.
• On page 29 the bill states that health care will be rationed.
• On page 42 it states that a health choices commissioner will make important health care choices for individuals.
• On page 58 it states that every person will have a national id health card.
• On page 59 it states that the federal government will have direct real time access to personal bank accounts.
• On page 72 it states that a person without acceptable health coverage will be taxed 2.5% of their income.
• On page 95 it states that officers of government health care will access to all American personal financial records.
• On page 429 it states that the government will have the power to order the beginning of end of life care as a patient’s health deteriorates.
