Pallone Pulls Out Of Health Care Forum
By Art Gallagher
Congressman Frank Pallone has pulled out of the Monmouth Medical Society’s Health Care candidates forum, siting a scheduling conflict. A call to the Congressman’s campaign office to find out what he will be doing instead has yet to be returned.
The forum will go on as scheduled Thursday evening at the Oyster Point Hotel in Red Bank at 7PM. GOP Candidate Anna Little will be there and a chair will be available for Pallone should he have a change of heart.
While we don’t know where Pallone will be tomorrow night, we know where he will be on Sunday night and where he learned about pulling out.
Planned Parenthood of Central Jersey is celebrating their 75th Anniversary on Sunday. Falsetto Frankie is being honored with the Baby Killer’s Leadership Award.
I’ve never had any first hand experience with Planned Parenthood. I always figured it was a place where people went to get cheap (subsidized) contraceptives and abortions. Little did I know that they have an education program for teens, parents and educators.
Here’s what Planned Parenthood teaches teens about pulling out:
Pulling out, or the pull-out method, refers to withdrawal, which is one of many ways to prevent pregnancy. Read on for the scoop on withdrawal: how it works, how well it works, and why it may not be the right choice for teens.
What is withdrawal?
Also known — more scientifically — as coitus interruptus, withdrawal may be the world’s oldest way to practice birth control. When a guy performs withdrawal, he removes his penis from the vagina before he ejaculates, or comes — that’s when semen spurts from his penis.
How does that prevent pregnancy?
The idea behind withdrawal is simple: If sperm is not released into the vagina, pregnancy is impossible.
Read the rest here.
Somebody should tell Phoney Palloney and Planned Parenthood about the dangers of pulling out. They should all show up tomorrow in at the Oyster Point in Red Bank where there will be some good doctors who might explain it to them.

From Rasmussen Reports:
Incumbents, beware: The major votes you’ve cast in Congress over the past couple years appear likely to come back to haunt you this Election Day.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that most Likely Voters think their representative in Congress does not deserve reelection if he or she voted for the national health care law, the auto bailouts or the $787-billion economic stimulus plan. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Those votes also appear to be driving factors in the GOP’s consistent lead over Democrats on the Generic Congressional Ballot. Most strong supporters of President Obama believe those who voted for the measures should be reelected. Even more of those who Strongly Oppose the president disagree.
Forty-three percent (43%) of all Likely Voters say someone who voted for the health care law deserves to be reelected. Fifty percent (50%) oppose their reelection.
Thirty-six percent (36%) say if their local representative voted for the taxpayer bailouts of General Motors and Chrysler, he or she deserves to be returned to Congress. Fifty-three percent (53%) say that person does not deserve reelection.
Similarly, 41% say their representative in Congress should be reelected if he or she voted for the stimulus plan. But 50% don’t see it that way and say the individual should not be reelected.
The partisan divide is predictable since virtually no congressional Republicans voted for any of these measures. So Democratic voters overwhelmingly think those in Congress who voted for them should be reelected, while Republicans feel just as strongly that they should not be reelected.
But, tellingly, voters not affiliated with either party also feel strongly that supporters of the health care law, the auto bailouts and the stimulus should not be returned to Congress.

NJ-6 Congressional Candidates Anna Little and Frank Pallone will face off in their second debate on Thursday evening October 21 at the Riverview Medical Center’s Blasisdal Auditorium in Red Bank. The debate, sponsored by the Monmouth County Medical Society is open to the public, however registration is required. RSVP to Cathy: [email protected]
Little has made the repeal of ObamaCare, she calls is PalloneCare, the cornerstone of her campaign to unseat her 11 term incumbent opponent. Pallone boasts that the health care reform bill passed by the 111th Congress was his bill, not Nancy Pelosi’s and not President Obama’s.
A National Research poll by pollster extraordinaire Adam Geller has the candidates in a dead heat 44%-43% with a 5.66% margin of error. Little leads Pallone 58%-32% among voters who are aware of both candidates.

(HIGHLANDS, October 19) – Republican Congressional challenger Anna Little – responding to news reports indicating that Boeing has joined a growing list of major American corporations that have decided to curtail their employees’ health benefits in the wake of the government takeover of healthcare – today reiterated her determination to repeal Obamacare when she gets to Congress in January.”We said from the beginning,” said Little, “that if this monstrosity passed, companies would be forced to make a hard choice between dropping coverage for their employees or raising their employees’ contributions to their benefits. Yesterday, Boeing announced that it is joining the long and growing list of companies that is already beginning to curtail benefits for its employees – in this case, for their 90,000 non-union employees.
“The government takeover of healthcare – ‘Pallonecare,’ in honor of his declaration that ‘This is not Obama’s bill. This isn’t Nancy Pelosi’s bill. It’s MY bill’ – was wrong on several fronts. It is bad medicine, and it is bad for business. And I cannot for the life of me understand why our Representative would think it was a good thing to raise the cost of doing business at a time when we’re trying to dig our way out of a jobless recovery.
“Washington just doesn’t get it,” continued Little. “Rather than take the right kind of actions – like voting to extend ALL the current tax rates for EVERY federal taxpayer, so that the entrepreneurs and job-creators in our economy know what will be the tax rates they face next year, and can make investment decisions accordingly – our leaders focus on growing the size of government and the reach of government, pushing it into areas it has no business being.
“Repealing Pallonecare will be the first step to restoring our nation’s economic growth,” said Little. “And the second step will be to extend the current tax rates for ALL of America’s taxpayers, so that NO ONE faces a tax hike in the middle of a jobless recovery.
“Remember, you cannot change Washington without changing the people we send to Washington!”

(ABERDEEN, October 18) -Republican Congressional challenger Anna Little – buoyed by the support of a crowd where her supporters outnumbered 22-year incumbent Frank Pallone’s supporters by at least 10-to-1 – handily dispatched Pallone in their League of Women Voters debate last night at the Temple Shalom in Aberdeen.
Usually, a post-debate press release includes some chest thumping by the campaign, claiming victory. And our headline certainly engages in a bit of that chest thumping, to be sure.
But a picture, as they say, is worth a thousand words – and a YouTube clip, as we say, is worth even more. So rather than tell you what happened last night in Aberdeen, we’re going to let last night’s encounter speak for itself. Simply click on the links below to see the exchanges between Anna Little and Frank Pallone on each of the key issues addressed.
