Steny Hoyer, D-MD, apparently doesn’t remember his tirade – or doesn’t care that he comes off as a complete hypocrite presently over the “Slaughter Rule.”

About to be a one track trainwreck.

Oh, let’s include the Speaker on this issue as well. Just 4 to 5 years ago in fact.

Not The Senate Bill You Are Voting On

With apologies to Obi Wan.

All pretense is gone. Long live the fibbers. … Or not.

Ramming Legislation We Do Not Want Or Need

Posted on March 10, 2010 | Leave a comment

Let’s see now, POTUS is going to be in St. Louis tomorrow to push his agenda in a closed to the general public meeting with select invited citizens.

Is this how our taxpayer money is to be used now? To speak not to us, directly, about such a major change to our economy and personal health care? I want my money back.

The next ramming event is scheduled for November 2, 2010. And it is our turn.

Vote on HealthCare Maybe 16th

Posted on March 7, 2010 | Leave a comment

It could be as early as the 16th, but likely this month according to various sources.
This newly re-crafted 2,000+ page bill is likely to add back in support for abortion.

My message is – scrap it. Either start fresh, or not at all.

In Rare Form

The real world view, as expressed by Dan Riehl – in a most direct and blunt description of the nuclear option and what it means.

Now he knows how the rest of us feel about this problem as dictated by the President.

Oh, and let’s not forget. Congress, too. Most of them anyway. But not all.

How Much Is A Vote Worth?

Posted on March 4, 2010 | Leave a comment

Well, that depends.

If you vote against earlier versions of a bill, and a second time but then become “undecided” – perhaps all you need is to get your brother a judgeship. And call it paid in full.

Let’s ask Jim Matheson of Utah.

After all this, I think we are all going to need Depends.

Cap And Trade May Be Changing

Posted on February 28, 2010 | Leave a comment

At least, that’s what these Senators say right now: Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.), Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) and Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.). They plan to introduce next month an alternative to the national version of the Cap and Trade bill by focusing on industrial sectors instead.

And yet, it won’t be easy to try to pass this alternative.

Like the Healthscare bill, this is not the time to be jacking up costs that will only be passed on to us, the consumers. The economy will still be negatively affected – with more being laid off every day. The current version, and this alternate, needs to be tabled.
