As I wrote here on March 02: Bottom line. The Democrats will pass this sweeping legislation that will take over 1/6 of our economy, over the clear majority of the American people that don’t want it. They will do it on a purely partisan basis using a procedural process never used before on big legislation […]
Early in the week, I thought the odds were heavily in our favor in the health care battle. But, the odds changed as the week went on. Pelosi and Obama engaged in one of the most shameless displays of open corruption in American history. Democrats in extremely red districts proved to be ready and willing […]
Image courtesy of cafepress.com The second lesson that should be learned is that there is no such thing as a Pro-Life Democrat. Partisanship and agendas over-ride all. Thus, it should come as no surprise that Bart Stupak sold out for an Executive Order;: a piece of paper that holds absolutely no merit, particularly when coming […]
If anyone at the Tea Party on Capitol Hill dropped the N-bomb, used any other kind of offensive slur like “f@ggot or wetback, or spit on anyone, I uncategorically condemn their behavior. Moreover, let me add that I don’t think it’s impossible that such things could have happened. The world’s full of idiots and it’s […]
One of the things that happened yesterday when the health care bill was passed was that the pro-life Democrat was proven to be almost as much of a mythical creature as the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, and: the: Loch Ness Monster. The Stupak block spent weeks of steadfastly opposing the Senate bill because they freely […]
Last night, I was doing a Google search for Bart Stupak and look what came up first:
The Heritage Foundation responds to the health care vote. They say it better (and with less cussing) than I could: As for the States filing suit? YES. South Carolina, where I live, has already committed to doing so. Our Attorney General, Henry McMaster, released a statement on Friday and again tonight. After the U.S. House’s […]
Last night, right before the health care vote, House Minority leader John Boehner gave an absolutely inspired speech. It was one of the best I’ve heard in a while and so I asked his staff to send me a copy of his remarks. They complied and here they are: I rise with a sad and […]
Watch it and weep… The United States of America was murdered today by a vote of 219 to 212. I should note how ill-mannered the Democrats are by their hoots, catcalls, and generally immature behavior the evidence of which can be heard on this video.
* One of the Stupak block, Marcy Kaptur just became an ex-pro-lifer by supporting the health care bill. That’s a key pick-up for the pro-health care side. * Ron Kind came out in favor of Obamacare, too, although most people thought he’d go that way. * Supposedly Loretta Sanchez is going to make the vote […]
Of course, nothing could be better than the Tweet I saw from Sky_Bluez: “Stupid is as Stupak does.” That about sums up the whole day so far. But here are a few others from various folks on my Twitter feed that are worth noting… buelldawg said: “Tea Party protesters who gathered on the Capitol lawn […]
Regular readers of all things Trog knew that I couldn’t see Lori’s new billboard without bringing this back out: (TrogloPundit loves his automotivators.)
The last book of the famous Lord of the Rings Trilogy is ripe for some updating, so here’s a proposal to that end. The Dark Lord Sauron is a perfect evil villain, of course. He’s shadowy, unseen, hard to grasp, but pervasive and the personification of oppression and evil. But his name needs to be […]
It’s going to be one of these two guys. Scott Walker, currently Milwaukee County Executive: The highlights: Walker was a conservative member of the State Assembly, then ran for County Exec after a big pension scandal both ruined the prior Exec’s career and made County Executive something people actually paid attention to. Since then, he’s […]
Robert Creamer of the HuffyPost penned a very revealing piece that proves that Democrats simply don’t care at all about anyone’s “health,” but that this whole fiasco is solely about political “wins” and power. If someone happens to get a little healthcare out of the thing, that is purely incidental to the actual purpose of […]
Today is the day they are finally going to put the economy and jobs as priority #1. Just kidding, of course. Though these ObamaCare twits actually believe that this will generate large amounts of jobs. To be fair, it will. Government jobs. Jobs for bureaucrats. Jobs for IRS agents, who are expected to increase the […]
Just a quick update: despite what you may be hearing from Fox, which has strangely had a more optimistic count for Democrats than even liberal websites, Pelosi DOES NOT have the votes yet. “They’re still short on votes. There’s still time and they still need votes.” — Rep. Dan Lipinksi (D-Ill.) Lipinksi is right. The […]
…and then they pass it? Is that why it smells so bad? I was just getting to understand the whole “deem and pass” (or, if you must, “demon pass”) thing when the news broke: the Democrats have dumped “deem and pass” and will instead take an up-or-down vote on the bill… …um, which bill? The […]
Mark Knoller, the award-winning White House correspondent for CBS News, was in Washington today covering the President’s attempt to rally Democrats to pass his government-run health care plan. In the course of describing the scene, Knoller shucked off his role as objective reporter so he could drop a casual slur on a significant chunk of […]
Image courtesy of storyballoon.org Poor Jimmy Carter, bless his bitter, old, anti-semitic heart. President Barack Obama has totally stolen his thunder. First, Obama had to horn in on Carter’s “I received a completely unwarranted Nobel Peace Prize” mantle. Now, this! What does Carter have left now? A few rancid cases of Billy Beer? From Story […]
Why do we need bribes, threats, and possibly illegal emails? Undecided Democrats are being promised campaign perks and lucrative committee assignments. They are being threatened with decreased fund-raising support, primary opponents and the loss of committee chairmanships. President Barack Obama has even lobbied members one-on-one aboard Air Force One. The White House Office of Health […]
Nancy Pelosi, I think, has got them all liquored up on sake and you know, they’re making a suicide run here. — Lindsey Graham I’ve been extremely skeptical that Nancy Pelosi could pull in enough votes to pass Obamacare by Sunday. That’s in large part because up until yesterday, they were having very little luck […]
Nurse Betty – Does Hollywood; as Health Care continues to be the only agenda Obama wants on the TV screens non-stop – here is episode #2 of Nurse Betty. Showing the hypocrisy of the Liberal Hollywood Elites on the subject. For other episodes of the show or more info check out- http://www.restrainednomore.com/
And also, to mix my metaphors: There’s no crying in baseball. The Democrats want you to believe it’s all over. And really, if they didn’t suck so bad, they’d have the votes. But this vote and their philosophy and their means and their actions DO suck that bad and so, still, after all these months, […]
ACU has a list of Democrats that are undecided on healthcare. CALL THEM and tell them to vote “no.”
A Democrat memo reveals that the Democrats are intentionally misleading the public on the CBO analysis of Obamacare. While we knew this, this is proof that they know it and are purposefully lying. RedState has the memo, scanned into pdf format. You can find it here. Key excerpt (emphasis by Ed Morrissey at Hot Air) […]
Ezra Klein has this to say about “the process” now under fire by Republicans: So far in the health-care debate, Republicans have attacked the legitimacy of private negotiations, parochial dealmaking, the budget reconciliation process, self-executing rules, the Congressional Budget Office’s analyses, and even the constitutionality of the legislation. It’s a good theory: Make people hate […]
Yet another example of the consequences of putting a moonbat ideologue who doesn’t particularly like this country in charge of it: oil in the Gulf of Mexico has been surrendered to Russia: The Obama administration is poised to ban offshore oil drilling on the outer continental shelf until 2012 or beyond. Meanwhile, Russia is making […]
The indispensable Jake Tapper of ABC News took an interview with Vice President Joe “Foot in Mouth” Biden that contains a nugget of information that tends to prove that Barack Obama intends to destroy America’s insurance industry and place it under the full control of the federal government. Tapper asked VP Biden what he’d been […]
Jon Voight, the exception who proves the rule regarding Hollywood moonbattery, calls on fellow patriots to flood DC in opposition to the healthcare power grab: I am calling to all of you freedom-loving Americans to come once again to Washington D.C. to gather at upper Senate Park, across from the Capitol on Saturday, at 12 […]
