No one disputes that some changes needed to be made to the health care industry...
But having Big Brother take it over and run it into the ground is not the solution to the problem.
So here we go...Down the slippery slope.
Government control, regulation and administration is not the solution to every issue.
Unfortunately- the only tool in the Democrat's toolbox is a hammer, and they think everything is a nail.
Our government used to be OF The People and FOR The People...
Obviously they have now turned a deaf ear to The People and and transformed it to a government OVER the people.
The Democrats/Progressives are passing legislation that is good for them and their buddies and their campaign contributors, and ignoring the voice of The People.
If the Town Hall meetings last year weren't enough of an indication, if the message sent by the election of Scott Brown early this year wasn't a clear enough message to scrap this Piece of Shit bill, if the fact that the House and Senate switchboards were clogged by HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of calls to the Assholes in office this past week hasn't shown them the light, then obviously nothing will.
The legislation couldn't stand on it's own... They needed a SuperMajority to pass it- and even then it didn't work. And instead of scrapping the bill that an overwhelming majority of people didn't want and starting over with both parties having input- maybe less government control, maybe some tort reform? No, they absolutely HAD to get it done before the congresscritters head home for spring break...
(Because you know what's going to happen when they get home... The defecation will be impacting the ventilation. You thought the Tea Party crowd was vocal before? Just wait.)
When it became inevitable that normal methods weren't going to work, they started to drag out the arcane legislative Dark Arts like Reconciliation and then the Slaughter maneuver...They just bullied, intimidated and bribed the round-heeled weasels and moved on.
With mountains of pork, favors, entitlements and stinky deals, there is a monstrous shit sandwich coming right at us and, as Lt. Lockhart said in Full Metal Jacket, we'll all have to take a big bite. And another and another.
No one wants to stand between The Lightworker and his need for self-aggrandizement.
Legislation being driven by the Narcissistic Traitors, Scoundrel, Liars, Cheats, and Crooks, so they will be know by their legacy...
(Which they will... We will know them. We will remember them.)
March 21st will be remembered... Not unlike December 7th, September 11th, and the Fifth of November...
So, now, what will they cram down our throats next?
Immigration reform? Check.
And you can bet it will be invasive and abusive and geared to bring as much glory to His Oneness' legacy as is possible.
Can & Trade
Like a dog returning to its vomit.
Maybe some Education Reform?
Let's let The Fed take over the funding and then content, curriculum, and enforcement. THAT's a good idea, huh?
And, since we can now pass legislation on anything without approval from The People, does anyone think some new Gun Control laws might be dancing in the Progressives dreams? You betcha.
So remember the date, Children...
March 21st.
As we rush headlong toward Civil War in America (The Sequel)
remember this little ditty from Jennifer...
Remember, Remember
Health Care in November
Vote Buying, Treason, and Plot
I know of no reason the Slaughter House Treason
Should ever be forgot
TBG- ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒE
"arcane legislative Dark Arts like Reconciliation?" Were the Bush tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 passed by these same dark arts? Yes. Funny how reconciliation is convenient to both parties when they need it.
ReplyDeleteAnd another thing. Do I want my congress voting based on public opinion? No. If that were the case, the surge in Iraq would have never happened. I was against it and so was the majority of the US. But it passed; and it worked.
"pass legislation on anything without approval from The People?" Seeing that the Dems have a majority in the house and the senate and they were elected by the people... I don't get it. Simple majority or not reconciliation or not; the majority has spoken.
In a few years (or less) the Republicans will win back control of the house and senate; and then you'll tell me that the people have spoken; and then the republican controlled congress will vote regardless of what FOX News/MSNBC polls say and you'll say the same things I am just as I will bicker about the will of the people.
T-Rav, you are an ignorant, misguided asshole.
ReplyDeleteOnce again you feel the need to invoke the Bush card.
You do this every fucking time-
Everything is Bush's fault, or GWB did that too, or the GOP is guilty of this transgression also...
You're equating the Tax Cuts of 2001 and 2003 to this nightmare? Cracker, please. The Tax Cuts boosted GDP, added jobs and lowered unemployment by stimulating business growth and increased real personal income.
The only boosting this is going to do is increase taxes (probably a national sales tax) and increase the number of .gov workers. Starting with 17000 more IRS employees.
Please, stick to the topic-
That government absorption of the health care industry is going to be a fucking nightmare, and that the "most ethical, bi-partisan, transparent administration evar" is a gigantic hunk of bullshit.
Also that Our Beloved Reader is so self-centered that the narcissistic fuckwad LightBringer is probably planning on changing the designation of Sol-3 to "Obamaworld".
Example of your ignorance:
TRav: "Seeing that the Dems have a majority in the house and the senate and they were elected by the people... I don't get it. Simple majority or not reconciliation or not; the majority has spoken."
Sorry, dumbass- that's just a majority of the assholes in congress, not the American people. The majority of the people are the ones that protested in the streets and called & wrote their congresscritters overwhelmingly, and were ignored.
The ENTIRE idea of an elected representative is that he LISTENS TO HIS CONSTITUENTS AND VOTES BASED ON THEIR INPUT, not on what he is told by his peers or by a large contributor or business interest.
(At least when I contacted my reps I got letters back from Rep. Ander Crenshaw and Sen. LeMieux... no response from Sen. Nelson on the 3 different attempts at expressing my opinion. I guess if you differ in opinion, he's no longer your representative?)
If you can remove your head from your ass long enough, and quit sucking Democratic dick long enough to explore public opinion,
take a peek at the non-partisan Rasmussen polls-
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/september_2009/health_care_reform
"The partisan divide remains constant as well. Seventy-four percent (74%) of Democrats favor the plan, while 87% of Republicans are opposed. As for those not affiliated with either major party, 34% are in favor, and 59% are opposed."
And from your last paragraph you seem to believe that I am lockstep with the RINOs? You need to step back and examine political ideologies that aren't just mainstream Democrat or Republican.
There's a hard rain comin'...
I'm guessing that you're going to sit back and relax and wait for the Government to come to your house, stock your fridge, and put up your storm shutters.
Is Obama gonna stop by and wipe your ass for you too?
I repeat: You, sir, are an ignorant, misguided asshole.
TY&FY
Mr. Young, Doctor Barney Frank is ready for your colonoscopy exam.
ReplyDelete1. I'm not trying to compare tax cuts with health care or Bush v Obama. I'm simply stating that reconciliation happened then just as it is happening now. But it must only be Evil when the democrats do it.
ReplyDelete2. Public opinion will only count during elections - you'll have it your way in a few years and then we'll see if the republican majority votes "with the people." C'mon - you know better.
3. At least you didn't yell 'baby killer' during your response!
