I watched several hours of c-span debate on the bills. Left wing dems did what was expected. They spoke of grandness, history, nanny actions based on emotions. So typical that they spoke of nothing in the bill. I was surprised and truly impressed with John Boehner's speech. He spoke at length of what is actually in the bill. When, in our history, has congress every passed legislation that penalizes the hard work of ordinary American taxpayers? This is a precedent most Americans have not yet understood or have not yet been told if they watch the Fringe media. It is becoming more evident that this administration has every intention of destroying capitalism as its main agenda. Rush was right. Obama is a walking talking destroyer and the "useful idiots" of media are co-conspirators. Somebody please tell me Im wrong.

I'm sure the President will be on TV praising Congress today, in spite of the whisker-thin margin.

I wonder if he will have in there, like he had one for Global Warming ---oops----Climate Change skeptics....a veiled threat for those who disagree,   a shot across the bow of the Senate?

Last month, President Obama gave a somewhat chilling, if somewhat
ignored, speech on climate change at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. He stated that any scientific debate about the magnitude of
global warming is unscrupulous, decrying “those who . . . make cynical
claims that contradict the overwhelming scientific evidence when it
comes to climate change, whose only purpose is to defeat or delay the
change that we know is necessary.”

Then, the president talked tough, saying, “We’ll just have to deal with
those people,” language familiar to anyone who knows the vagaries of
Chicago politics.

(emphasis mine)

Indeed.

With some minor word-changes, it will fit perfectly.

This was a Democrat party operation. It was staged to occur on a Saturday night because they knew (and hoped) that attention was focused elsewhere. The compliant media avoided the debate. The Democrat party leaders pushed through a bill that the American public determined they didn't like, then turned around and said they were doing it because the people had "voted for reform." 

Now, let's be clear. Studies show that a crucial component of Obama's election was that conservatives stayed home. Obama had convinced them that he was a modest, moderate, middle of the road guy. He wouldn't do anything excessive or wildly "liberal." That's how the media portrayed him, ignoring every piece of evidence to the contrary. They ignored Bill Ayers, Reverend Wright, Saul Alinsky, and any evidence that showed Obama in a negative light.

This is what happens when you listen to and trust the media. They sold us a fraud. 

Rep. Cao represents a majority black district. He is in only because he beat out Bill Jefferson, who was going to jail. His vote says more about Cao than the bill.

Blacks in Lousiana are represented by A** Holes

Joe Wilson proven right...Obama is a liar (bold mine) -

Obama - (In a speech made to Congress recently)"The (healthcare) bill would not contain support for illegal immigrants."

AP Article Nov 8, 2009 - House leaders said that, in keeping with the Hispanic Caucus' demands, there was not likely to be any prohibition added to the House bill against illegal immigrants shopping in the exchange.

I think that he (Obama) got our message," Rep. Nydia Velazquez, D-N.Y., head of the Hispanic Caucus, said afterward.

Rep. Wilson was severely chastised for his comment at the time though it would now seem to be true.

So much for Obama's pledge of "change" in the way Washington does buisiness...not to mention his pledge of "transparency".  Will the establishment media point this out?

passing new legislation stating that evey working American's pay check is to be directly deposited into a Government Account and from there a check will be cut back to the "WORKER".

EASY AS THAT!

NOTHING TO STOP THEM EITHER!!

I watched the debate intermittantly.

  The first one I have ever watched I believe.

It was more a running commentary than a debate.

 A lot of claims and counter claims...

  But debate?  I didn't really think issues were brought to the floor and examined for content to any great degree. I can't really call it a debate.

  Stupak is admittedly bait to be thrown overboard as soon as this ship sailed, as upon being pressed, not only was a guarantee not possible...of course, but you would think that one of the Democrats would have at least stood up and said.." I know I cannot guarantee it's retention, however I guarantee to champion the amendment to the limit of my ability" ---or at least something along those lines.

 I would have preferred that Stupak not have been adopted as it only gave cover to a couple moderates, which is exactly what it was included to accomplish.

  A lot of posturing...a bunch of fluff..

  It was cut and dried before they entered debate.  Looked more like a public relations gathering to me. Put a camera on a politician...what would you expect I guess.

As usual, excellent reporting in the British press over the terrorism at Fort Hood:

Fort Hood Shooting: Inside Story... : http://www.telegraph.co.uk

"Alice Thompson, 53, who manages the two storey block of simple dwellings with her husband John, told The Sunday Telegraph: "It was very unusual because he [Hasan] had never had anyone round before. His visitor had long black hair and a moustache and a dark complexion. He stayed about five minutes and then left. We'd never seen him before."

Hasan also attended the same mosque in Virginia as some of the 9/11 hijackers:

Malik Hasan Tied to 9/11 Hijackers:  http://mypetjawa.mu.nu

"Hasan attended the radical Saudi funded mosque in Virginia who's now oft quoted and shocked-and-horrified imam is also a big supporter of the ISNA. What we didn't know was that Hasan attended that mosque at the same time as two of the 9/11 hijackers -- Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour."

Every single person that enters that goddamn mosque should be identified, and followed by the FBI. The fact that someone in the US military was able to attend there and not raise red flags points to incompetence and negligence in our own government. Let's hope that Republicans are able to start a congressional investigation of this outrage.

How Obamacare will bankrupt health insurance companies and ensure that government healthcare becomes a monopoly:

PelosiCare's Price Controls Will Bankrupt...: http://directorblue.blogspot.com

Devious, as you would expect from the snake Pelosi. This way when private insurance goes out of business, they can claim it's not their fault that 'insurance companies can't operate efficiently'.

If only we could keep administrative costs of government agencies to 15%, rather than the usual 100-150%.

Fear not, Napolitano is all over the Hasan case:

"Janet Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday's rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan."
