healthcare bill idiocy on facebook....
omg! if the health care bill passes, we are all going to be MICROCHIPPED!!! it's the mark of the beast!!

one of my facebook "friends" posted this screed about the bill, and how she dared the CIA to come get her for talking about it, blah blah... i suspected she was s religious fruitcake, not just a normal religious person before this, but now it's confirmed.

should i unfriend her, or toy with her?

"If this health care bill passes,u will b microchipped which btw is the mark of the beast,abortions will be legal & funded by all even if you stand against it BTW its murder. This will seal all of the worlds fate for the NewWorldOrder.Bring it on CIA kill me for speaking about this. u people(CIA, NWO, FEMA, EU, NATO) wi...ll all burn in hell. Read Revelation 13 if u dont beleive me!"


and that's the short paragraph... it gets longer and crazier...

1. I have to hide most of my family member's rants. Today got a "no taxation without representation"
argument from a cousin. Wanted to send, "you've got representation, they just lost this last time. you dont get to cry 'tyranny' just because you dont like the way things are"

13. Ahh, but our secret plan is to make them *mandatory*!
Even for men!

The evil conservative-scaring surgical procedures to allow such scenarios will be rolled out on the first Ramadan after the bill passes!

Or something!

8. here's some more....
And he caused all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond,to receive a mark in their right hand, or in the foreheads:and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast;for it is the number of a man and has number is sixhundred threescore and six.
Revelation 13:16-18


I am not afraid of these people, they can kill me like they killed the beloved Jews and dear armenians, but my spirit in heaven will be proudly praising my Lord and Maker of all. God spare this bill from being passed for more people need to know of your true and wonderful Name Yeshuah HaMassiach, Yahweh, Elohim of elohims, Lord show your favour ... See Morejust once more on these people, let not this bill be passed until more people can hear your word and truly have the wisdom of it, let them not take the mark oh Lord, Let them be willing to die in Your name! We do not expect silly virgins for us in heaven oh Lord, we are not stupid, But we know Your love and Your mercy will be shown when we die in Your name. God you are merciful, and You are awesome! My praises alone can not do justice! I pray that more people will raise their voice to you.
In the Name of Yeshuah, whom you sent and was perfect for He was is and always be Your Son. He died for all, He carried our burdens and paid for all of our sins with His death, blood, and resurrection so that we too could be esteemed saints! Lord i thank You for all that You have done. I thank You and will continue to praise You in all of this storm that is on the earth. For Your ways are perfect and Your timing is always right. In Yeshuahs name i pray all these things.
AMEN!



Woah unto all you feminists! I do not want to hear a womans right of choice, because if i have to hear what you choose, let me tell you if you cannot be responsible in the first place, have your uterus removed. pluck out your ovaries, every life is precious and you know the outcome of what grows in you for 9 months and life starts at conception. If... See More it wasnt life it wouldnt grow! you kill a larva because you know that inside it is not yet a bug but give it a few days and it will be. You are murders, you are killing people. Do you say that the holocaust was a travesty!? You know how many lives have been snuffed out because you are so careless, so selfish, and so pathetic? Dont start with me. You can defend that to your death, and guess what, your death will be eternal HELL. Enjoy that. and of course repent and turn to Jesus, because even if you have had an abortion Jesus died for your sins. He cares about your life, turn to Him, repent of your sins. Remove your pride and your excuses.

Please if you stand with me on this feel free to copy this into a note or onto your page. God bless you my friends. Stand with Israel, stand with God, allow the Holy Spirit to live in you! Be set free from the pain of this world!


No one was even commenting yet, she was just talking to herself i guess!

24. The mark probably will be on our right hands because isn't Obama left-handed?
That would make sense to me. To make everyone get marked on their right hand.

yep..yep...it makes perfect sense. Enjoy that.

10. I would respond with one of the best replies ...
... I've ever read here on DU. It was from The Magistrate, on a thread about a DUer's paranoid coworker, who was convinced that the evil Obama thugs were out to get her.

I wish I'd bookmarked it (I just checked, and I didn't - doh!), so I will paraphrase from memory:

"Tell her not to return to her home after work tonight - they'll be waiting for her. Warn her to travel light, use only cash - no credit cards or debit card withdrawals that can be traced. With a little luck, she might make it to the border before sun-up."

11. that'a great! i might try it ... but she's CANADIAN!
she's oh so grateful to have HER health care mind you, even though she has to "pay through the nose" for it, and had to wait in the emergency room and she could have DIED!!!

15. I am an American living in Canada ...
Edited on Sat Mar-20-10 07:28 PM by NanceGreggs
... and I can tell you that anyone who categorizes what we pay for healthcare coverage as "paying through the nose" is either lying, or insane.

If she's Canadian, why does she think the CIA - or any other US organization - will come and get her, force her to be micro-chipped? Is she aware that Canada and the US are two separate countries, with separate governments? You might want to point that out to her, as she seems to be confused about the matter.

In 2007, I experienced what I call a "medical misadventure" - I was given pennicillin, not knowing I had developed an allergy to it since the last time I'd taken it, more than twenty years previous. I spent many a night in the ER as symptoms of the allergy progressed and manifested themselves - and yes, I had to wait my turn like everyone else - imagine that!

The hospital DID NOT push aside car-crash victims or those in cardiac arrest in order to treat MOI first - talk about a system gone awry!

As things turned out, my condition was potentially fatal - I was given a 50-50 chance of pulling through. Over a period of several months, I was treated by a number of specialists, including four-times weekly visiting RNs who came to my home and checked on my progress and advised on how to deal with what was happening, blood work on a regular basis, monitoring of vital signs, medication, even advice on the proper diet to combat the ravages of what my body perceived to have been a "poisoning" of my system.

Thanks to dedicated healthcare workers, I survived - at an out-of-pocket cost of zero, nil, nada, zilch.

Ask your FB friend if she'd like to trade places with an uninsured US resident - or show her what she'd be paying to get the kind of medical treatment she thinks she deserves. But then that would involve facing the facts - obviously something she has no acquaintance with.

20. Feel free to use the info as you see fit ...
I have many real-life Canadian friends (what with me living in their country and all), and they are APPALLED by what they've learned about the US healthcare system over the past year.

Until the revelations that have come up in the US press/media in discussions about HCR, they had NO idea that US citizens could actually be bankrupted by morally-bankrupt insurance providers.

I admit that I wasn't as cognizant of the blessings of the Canadian healthcare system until my little "misadventure" - when I realized that had I been living in the States, even with "heathcare insurance" paid for at exorbitant prices, I would have been on-the-hook for tens of thousands of dollars for the treatment I required - as my allergy to penicillin would have been deemed a pre-existing condition, despite the fact that I could not possibly have known about it until after-the-fact.

I have been berated on DU many times for weighing-in on the topic of HCR, because I live in Canada and as someone who "has mine", I've been told I shouldn't be opining on what my fellow citizens DON'T have.

It is in fact my residence in a country that has a SANE healthcare system that makes me adamant about HCR for all Americans.

25. Just wanted to add something here ...
... I thought your li'l friend might be interested in - just to add insult to injury to her claim that she had to wait in the ER and she could have DIED!

My daughter woke up this morning with severe abdominal pain. She was in too much pain to go to one of the clinics in the neighbourhood (there are three within walking distance, BTW - and, of course, we can choose any one of them, or ANY clinic or doctor in the city.)

Anyway, I simply called MedVisit and asked for a doctor to make a house call. An hour later, the doctor was here to examine her in her own home.

He immediately arranged for her to have an ultrasound tomorrow morning, to confirm what he suspects is the problem.

And yes, it's all COVERED, one hundred percent - the tests and the at-home visit.

So much for a requirement to wait your turn at an ER when you're in dire straits ...

21. ok, this part is where she's claiming it says we'll all be microchipped....
US Health Care Bill (PDF) in a “non-discussed” section titled: Subtitle C-11 Sec. 2521— National Medical Device Registry, and which states its purpose as:

“The Secretary shall establish a national medical device registry (in this subsection referred to as the ‘registry’) to facilitate analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that—‘‘(A) is or has been used in or on a patient; and ‘‘(B) is a class III device; or ‘‘(ii) a class II device that is implantable.”

In “real world speak”, according to this report, this new law, when fully implemented, provides the framework for making the United States the first Nation in the World to require each and every one of its citizens to have implanted in them a radio-frequency identification (RFID) microchip for the purpose of controlling who is, or isn’t, allowed medical care in their country.


so funny, her fiancee came in and posted that they should all ignore me, and think about godly things, blah blah ... then the original poster replied with the above, and i told her naughty girl, you disobeyed him! then he deleted the post he had made!!!! so i told her again what a naughty girl she was, and that i'd seen the post before he deleted it ... "tricky christians, did the devil make you do it?"

:rofl:

22. I'd fuck with her head..
Tell her she's *already* been microchipped, it's in the flu shots (or find out whatever kind of shot she's had recently).

The microchip has been programmed to get into her bloodstream and give her a myocardial infarction whenever the government sends the right radio signals just like a car lock remote..

Play it right and you could make big money by getting a video of her head exploding if she has a webcam.

But then I'm an evil old asshole.. :evilgrin:

23. i like the way you think, Fumesucker!
i was toying with her for a while, then her daddy/boyfriend/fiancee stepped in and issued a directive that she/they were to ignore me and think of godly things!

then she answered me anyway ... and he went back and deleted the post! :rofl: tricky christians the devil made them do it!
