It seems that we are headed to economic, governmental and Constitutional disaster. The Anchoress and Peggy Noonan can see through the nasty murky haze that has enveloped Washington D.C.
What is in Washington scares me almost nto the point of crapping myself. That ain’t likely to happen. I am one of those people who keep eyes and ears open, guns loaded and knives at the ready. Come and get me Erik Holder, I fuckin’ dare you.
A Must Read by The Anchoress at First Things
I have a great deal of fear of what is going to happen next in our country. With Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats cramming this monstrosity down our throats. It almost seems like the Senate Republicans are caving in and allowing them to pass the subsequent votes needed to get it passed and sent to the House for Conference. Our only hope is that the 2010 elections give the Republicans a super majority in both the House of Representatives and Senate. If they can get a veto proof majority in both houses they can overturn this monstrosity and get things back where they belong, I like my health insurance, and I don't want anybody screwing with it. Below are just a few of the monstrous things in this bill. 2012, cannot get here soon enough for me, our only hope is that someone like Sarah Palin could be elected in 2012. If she decides to run. I am pretty confident that she can win.
I honestly and foolishly thought that it would take him at least. His first term, or only term to destroy this country. Now he's on the doorstep of destroying the country in one year, one vote away from destroying the healthcare of the United States. The people in the House of Representatives and the Senate who voted for this piece of crap can not be punished enough. I honestly don't know if this thing could be overturned. Once past and put into law, because we all know the President Zero will sign it. He is absolutely desperate to get anything passed, no matter what kind of piece of crap that is.
I don't know who wrote this I found it on Newsbusters in light of things it seems quite appropriate. I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, enjoy it while we still have the freedom to do so.
Congress' Night Before Christmas
"Twas the week before Christmas and those sly little elves,
Our congressmen, labored to better themselves.
They cared not a whit what the public might think
"Let them eat cake," some said with a wink.
And putting their thumbs to the tip of their nose,
they waved as they shouted "Anything goes!"
They scoffed at the thought that we might object,
to a tax cut for the wealthy of a posh percent.
They've got prerequisites-franking, per diem, and more --
bargain-priced haircuts and gyms (three or four!)
Paid speaking engagements and meals on the cuff,
celebrity status -- (they've sure got it tough!),
Yet they claim they're in touch with the man on the street,
as John Q. Public struggles to make both ends meet.
If all workers decided what they were due,
they'd be getting those fat paychecks too!
But while we take cutbacks or raises quite small,
and one out of 20 has no job at all,
our millionaire Congress decides on the budget
land trimming Medicare and Medicaid will do it, they say.
In this season for giving, our Congress is taking.
We've had it with them and our backs are breaking.
With hard times, disasters, and layoffs on our dockets,
we bit the bullet and they fill their pockets!
Oh jobless, oh homeless, oh desperate and needy -
dare anyone say our Congress is greedy?
If in this feeling I'm not alone,
take up your pen or pick up your phone.
As dry leaves before the wild hurricane fly,
let the road of your anger mount to the sky.
Indignant, outraged, appalled and beset
let your congressman know that you won't forget!
When election times comes -- and certain it will --
you're voting him out for passing that bill.
More rapid than eagles, their elections assured
they toasted each other and laughed at the herd.
And I heard them exclaim with adjournment at hand,
"Merry Christmas to us, and the public be damned!
