216

I just got a tweet from Fox that says the Dems just got their 216th vote.

Obama's Health Care reform will be law in mere days.

If you sit on the couch and smoke pot all day watching TV, rejoice. I'll be paying for your health care.

If you work, like I do, and see much of your pay go to taxes, get the lube and bend over. This is going to hurt like nothing before.

Crazy times ahead.

P.S. If this is true, I expect they'll call the vote sooner than Sunday. I bet they'll vote the second they're SURE they'll get it to pass. Maybe tonight?

Unless something recently has changed the working man will be paying 2 to 3 thosand more a year in tax's and health care cost.. possible more than that.

What I want to know is the Illegals going to get free Health Care ???

Somebody please tell me they will not !!!! I'm peeved enough as it is maybe it's best you don't tell me.

If any of you guys feel strongly about this, take a few minutes this weekend and write your STATE representatives.

Ask them what your state plans to do about this. Tell them your concerns and tell them you want them to get organized and team up with other states to rebel against this takeover of states' rights.

Every letter and every phone call matters. Please don't just sit back and hate what's happening...it's not enough. Get active.

Even if this BS passes and is signed, the fight isn't over. We still have the courts and the states. We can still beat this.

Seems to me another country did this to their citizens and the citizens took appropriate action and remedied the situation...yep, they ignored a tea party too.

Don't unfurl the "Don't Tread On Me" flag and head for Concord Bridge just yet, folks.

According to the Christian Science Monitor, as of 8:15 PM EDT tonight it is still very much up in the air whether the Wicked Witch of the West Coast can summon enough of her Flying Monkeys to get that magic 216 votes she needs. A number of Democrats who she thought would vote "yes" have changed their positions to "no" or "maybe" due to glitches in the bill they say neither they nor their constituents can live with.

Here's the link:

Welcome to the real world. I've been doing that for 40+ years, my father before me and his father before him. In every society, there have always been those who do less than others but expect the same benefits. In the old days, before Christianity and all this help out the poor crap, the lay abouts and losers would've been dead from starvation or stoning for not helping the tribe to survive and illegals would've been run off.
We need to go back to survival of the fittest and cast out these scourges on society. Put Grandma on a hill with a blanket and one days rations and be done with her. No Death Panels needed.

As I've said, a number of Representatives have changed their positions from Yes, to Maybe, or even No based on what the bill would do to their districts or their states. It may not be too late. Fire up the email, get on the phone and tell your Representative to vote not only No, but HELL, NO!

These clowns are supposed to pay attention to what their constituents want. If 84% of the People are against this legislation according to all the surveys, there should be a lot more than the 35 or 40 Respresentatives on the fence here. What we need to do is be sure they vote the way we'd prefer - but they won't know what that is unless you get on the keyboard and the phone and TELL them.

Angry

Just remember, that scaly zombie queen, pelosi, is the 'leader' of the House - she decides the political fate and career for every Democrat House member and even decides what committees the GOP members will sit on, if any. She can put an independent thinker into the 'broom closet' for his term, then make sure he doesn't get re-elected. She is the very definition of "Malevolent Evil" in the political system today. So, she is brow-beating and bullying many into "Towing the party line".

We really need to send that heathen hussy packing her stinking meat back to San Franfreako where she can sniff the magic powder and waste the rest of her sordid life away in peace and OUT of POLITICS.

Fox has 217 now for DemObamacare.

It is going to pass. If they don't have the votes, they won't vote.

Enjoy your Saturday. Our freedoms and wallets take are taking another huge hit tomorrow. America is changing in a way the people don't want (at least the ones not lining up for free government stuff)...again.

I've been on some other forums this morning. Damn...there are some people REALLY pissed off. I wouldn't be surprised if that tree doesn't get a little food in the next couple days.

So far, 37 states are getting ready to sue the feds for this atrocity, And tie it up in court, until it can be tried and hung. The people spoke, and the elite in DC didn't listen, so we may see some REAL change in November. I can't believe that these people want 16,000 more gummint agents hired, to police the people, and fine them for making what should be a personal choice. I watched the congress critters parade their "folks in need", yesterday, and one of them was grinning like a monkey as he fumbled with his unneeded crutch. The guy had three chins, and aside from being overweight from too much couch time, looked healthy enough to get out and find a job. Talk about stretching the BS line!

It will pass. They have decided that regardless of what the American people want. Senators and Congressmen no longer take the will of the people into consideration. It will pass even if they have to lie (already doing that), cheat (thats what they will do Sunday), or steal (which is how they got all the votes... stealing money from the citizens to pay for pet projects for graft-ridden politicians).

I will now quote from the most sacred American document...

.."Governments are instituted among men, DERIVING THEIR JUST POWERS FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED, -That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."...

...."it is their right, IT IS THEIR DUTY, to throw off such government, and to provide new GUARDS for their future security."...

We are witnessing the destruction of American life. The destruction of freedom. The end of what we now know as the United States of America. God help us all.

They will not stop here. They won't stop until we submit to their vision of a socialist collective. These people have NO regard for the constitution, or the sovereign rights of the states to make their own decisions.

I'm afraid this is the exact case, that we the people no longer have a voice in the government that is supposed to do our will. I tried to listen to the witch of the westcoast, yesterday, and had to turn it off before I puked. The old biddy is giddy with power, and needs to be voted out of office. She is 100% out of control, as is her leader. They simply refuse to listen, to we the people, to continue to pay off those who help them do their evil work. The destruction of our nation is at hand.....

I am unemployed at the moment, and I do not have health coverage. It scares me. Passage of this bill would benefit me.

But, I DON'T want this bill to pass! It is wrong for this country. It costs too much. It covers too many people.

And, as I have said many times before...the government will promise you the world, and then when you say OK, they will hand you a bag full of dog sh!t.

Public Schools, IRS, DMV, Medicare and Medicaid, SS....just about every government program sucks, they are poorly run. Funds meant for them are funneled to other places and programs. When have you ever heard ANYONE say: "Yea, the government got that one right!" NEVER...

This Government DESERVES NOTHING! They DESERVE NO MORE MONEY FROM TAXATION...I don't care what it is meant or what they say it is for.
