House GOP Not Allowed to Call Obamacare ‘Government-Run Healthcare’
By Josh Price
This is breaking on Human Events:
Rep. John Carter (R-Texas), the secretary of the House Republican Conference and a former District Court Judge, is having his messages to constituents censored by Democrats on the Franking Commission. Republicans are no longer allowed to use the words “government run health care” in the communications to their constituents.
Carter received an email from the Franking Commission informing him of the censorship.
“It came to me from the Franking Commission and I have the email from the Franking Commission here if you’d like to see it,” Carter said. “We held a telephone town-hall… When you hold telephone town-halls you have a recorded message that introduces the town-hall and the subject matter you’re going to be talking about. You have to now submit that language to the Franking Commission.
“What we proposed as language was as follows, ‘House Democrats unveiled a government-run health care plan,’” Carter said. “Our response from Franking was, ‘You cannot use that language. You must use, ‘The House majority unveiled a public option health care plan,’ which is Pelosi-speak or ‘just last week the House majority unveiled a health care plan which I believe will cost taxpayers…’”
This is right out of George Orwell’s 1984. (I hope the Conservative Hideout’s Call It Something Else Translation Matrix has filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against the Dems on the Franking Commission).
We are on the verge of a one-party, communist dictatorship. Chairman Obama isn’t harmless. The Dems aren’t just acting like the majority party; they’re acting like the Democrat Party is the only party. They’re even threatening to shut out fellow Democrats who don’t agree with Obama’s government-run healthcare catastrophe.
Wake up people! It’s happening.

Yes. That’s exactly the point I was making. It’s this kind of Orwellian Newspeak that I’m sure inspired you to create the Call It Something Else Translation Matrix.
It was indeed Josh. Orwellian it is, but very amateurish. They really rely on the MSM to not report things like this, thought I do wonder if they will eventually leave the sinking ship.
Well, I’d think about suing for “gimmick infringement,” but they would just CALL IT SOMETHING ELSE, which, I guess, is the point anyway.
