WASHINGTON, Dec. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 6th, 2011, on page A3 of the Washington Times, Glenn Morton, Desert Storm Veteran and author of Passing Obamacare, placed the most confrontational political advertisement in American history…directly challenging President Obama to a televised debate in an effort to stop Obamacare. Calling Obamacare a "domestic enemy" and the "Biggest Civil Rights Issue of Our Time," Mr. Morton promises that, if President Obama does not accept the challenge by December 31st, 2011, he will release, on Martin Luther King Day, "the most serious written attempt a person could possibly make" to end Mr. Obama's presidency.

Inspired by his participation in the Occupy DC and New York movements, and after almost 2 years spent developing a better solution to the issue of high premiums and swelling ranks of uninsured than Obamacare, Glenn Morton is attempting something never before tried by an American citizen: directly confronting a sitting United States President, and publicly challenging him to a debate, in an effort to stop legislation.

Literally nose to nose with President Obama in the ad, Mr. Morton says that Obamacare gives health insurers a "permanent financial stake in the earnings of every person, and every employer over 50 employees, in America," and allows the federal government to "take money from American families and employers, give it to private corporations, and neither the government nor the corporation has to provide any services or products in return."

He points out that, if the Supreme Court rules the individual mandate constitutional, then repealing Obamacare after the election will no longer matter, as the federal government will "always be able to take as much money from us as they want, and for whatever they wish."

In a preemptive move, Mr. Morton requested that President Obama ask the Congressional Budget Office to "reassess the cost and penalties in Obamacare based on 25%, 33%, and 50% exchange participation in 2014...so we see the potential impact of PPACA on our bank accounts, our businesses, and the economy."

In a November 22nd, 2011 speech at Manchester Central High School in New Hampshire, President Obama told the audience the Occupy protesters were the reason he "ran for office in the first place." (link: http://youtu.be/fhS1oa06mYM). There has been no response yet from the White House as to whether the President will accept Mr. Morton's offer to debate.

There will be a press conference at McPherson Square Park in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, December 8th, 2011 at noon. Mr. Morton will speak for a few minutes, then open the conference to questions from the media.
