The Zombies in the Senate insist on doing Obama’s dirty work
And tidings of comfort and joy from Harry Reid too. The Senate Majority Leader has decided that the last few days before Christmas are the opportune moment for a narrow majority of Democrats to stuff ObamaCare through the Senate to meet an arbitrary White House deadline. Barring some extraordinary reversal,it now seems as if they have the 60 votes they need to jump off this cliff,with one-seventh of the economy in tow.
Mr. Obama promised a new era of transparent good government,yet on Saturday morning Mr. Reid threw out the 2,100-page bill that the world’s greatest deliberative body spent just 17 days debating and replaced it with a new “manager’s amendment”that was stapled together in covert partisan negotiations. Democrats are barely even bothering to pretend to care what’s in it,not that any Senator had the chance to digest it in the 38 hours before the first cloture vote at 1 a.m. this morning. After procedural motions that allow for no amendments,the final vote could come at 9 p.m. on December 24.
Even in World War I there was a Christmas truce.
The rushed,secretive way that a bill this destructive and unpopular is being forced on the country shows that “reform”has devolved into the raw exercise of political power for the single purpose of permanently expanding the American entitlement state. An increasing roll of leaders in health care and business are looking on aghast at a bill that is so large and convoluted that no one can truly understand it,as Finance Chairman Max Baucus admitted on the floor last week. The only goal is to ram it into law while the political window is still open,and clean up the mess later.
what more can you expect from people we elected but for got to ask if they can see,hear,read before we put them in office.because i dont think they can do any of those things.there worst then the mafea,at least they would shoot you not shove laws down your throat.BUT WE MUST REMEMBER WHO VOTED FOR THIS BILLTHAT TAKES AFACT IN 2014 WE SHOULD BEABLE TO GET RID OF EVERYONE INCUDING OUR COMUNIST PRESIDENT,THAT IS WHY HE WONT SHOW ANY BIRTH SATIFICT,SCHOOL INFORMATION BESIDES WHAT SCHOOL HE WENT TO ,THAT HE MARCHED IN A COMUNIST PARADE,HIS MENTOR WAS A COMUNIST AS HIS PARENTS PROPABLY WERE TO

Great links thanks,spread them around.
If Congress is the body who impeaches the president,who impeaches Congress? We the People? What about the people who voted for the bozos once or twice? Remember the CNN interview of the Black Panther 'security guard'in Philly?
Looking forward to 2010 and 2012…hope we survive until then…where is John Galt?

It would seem to me that the American people would have a good case for a class action lawsuit against Congress for negligence and dereliction of duty.
Would like to hear from some attorney that isn't afraid to tackle that one. That is a cause I would contribute to.
