Obama wanted soldiers to buy private insurance.

This email has gone around a few times but it is worth examining again.
Here is the story from TruthorFiction.com (I think they do a better job than snopes on this)
The Obama administration plans to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for the treatment service related injuries of military personnel -Truth! – but Cancelled
Obama said “Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn’t compute… I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country. I wasn’t asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I’d have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation’s deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans.” – Fiction! & Satire!
News release from the American Legion national service organization:
WASHINGTON, DC (March 16, 2009) – The leader of the nation’s largest veterans organization says he is “deeply disappointed and concerned” after a meeting with President Obama today to discuss a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of military veterans who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries. The Obama administration recently revealed a plan to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in such cases.
“It became apparent during our discussion today that the President intends to move forward with this unreasonable plan,” said Commander David K. Rehbein of The American Legion. “He says he is looking to generate $540-million by this method, but refused to hear arguments about the moral and government-avowed obligations that would be compromised by it. …”
I am glad the second block was satire. If he had actually said something that stupid and insensitive he would have to worry that one of the returning veteran war hero snipers his homeland security queen called “domestic terrorists” would have taken him out from a mile away. 
Truthfully, that he would even ask something like this of the people our country sends into harm’s way, to save a measly $540 million, just shows how shallow and ungrateful the man is. It would only take them 16.7 minutes to spend that on something else. I mean, if you want something REALLY SCARY to display on Halloween, print out this page.
Before the election some good friends said they were going to vote for Obama. They are intelligent, responsible people, so I went to his campaign website and looked at what he planned to do. I read for a long time and came away with the question “Who on earth is going to pay for all this???” I watched the campaign coverage and saw that people really believed that he was the messiah.
I wondered who would let themselves be worshiped like that? Could I actually conceive of anybody being such a narcissist? Then I saw the story about how he wanted our soldiers to pay for their own insurance. My son is a soldier, so I know how little they are paid. after paying for their own insurance most of them would qualify for food stamps. (actually, many of them already qualify for food stamps)
Thats when the epiphany kicked in. I understood that this man had an ego the size of Jupiter and truly hated this country and wanted to completely destroy it. The way he would do that would be to fundamentally change the way America works, by destroying the free market, taxing the citizens to death and making everyone dependent on the US government for a handout. To pay for all this he would just print money because he knew he would not be able to sell the US debt for much longer.
Throw in a treaty or two, like the one he will sign in Copenhagen this December, to give away US sovereignty and the US would crumble to ashes and all the third world countries would cheer because they hated our success. Well, maybe cheer for a little bit, until they figure out they are ruled by this one world government they created. With the US destroyed, who is going to support this government? OOPS the rest of the world is going to have to do it. Since we will be a third world country at that point, they will have to pay to support us. And everyone melts into a Marxist nightmare.
