Any congressman or senator that votes for healthcare “reform” now will be sent packing in the next election. This is now crystal clear.

Healthcare is dead.

Watch for Dems to distance themselves from both healthcare and Obama starting now.

Anyone that was a seen as a leader on this is probably already beyond saving and if Obama doesn’t drop this immediately, he will become the next Jimmy Carter.

Will the Democrats finally mount a challenge to their leadership? Despite a (former) super-majority in the Senate, a comfortable majority in the House, and a willing White House, Reid and Pelosi have accomplished NOTHING!

One year is long enough to prove yourself, and they have FAILED! Reid’s leadership: The Louisiana Purchase and the Cornhusker Kickback! What a loser!

Time to turn the page, and Move On!

Last night’s election was a referendum on, among other things, politicians not listening to the people that they represent. Nancy is not listening, has no intention of listening because she has her agenda and knows what is best for us. She has her constituents in California’s 8th district that re-elect her with 70-80 % of the vote. They obviously don’t have a problem with her.

The one thing Nancy Theloser has going for her is that since she has that dazed and confused look on her face all the time, it’s hard to tell if she’s just putting up a good front or truly clueless about the significance of last night’s election results. One heckuva poker face….I guess.

Celebrating the defeat of health care is similar to cattle celebrating the gate to the pen being closed closed and the slaughter house resuming its schedule. I find little joy in celebrating the death of 44,000 Americans who will die this year from lack of health care, or the untold bankruptcies as the pharmacutical, medical, and insurance industries drain an individual of their life’s assets. The fireworks and cheering will continue until those celebrating realize they’ve been had. Unfortuantely, it will be too late then.

The HC industry is the elephant everyone ignores. They have proven that a profitable industry is stronger than our government. They have forced a long stalemate in congress and leveraged a bill that has so many disparate elements that disliking something about it is consensual.

Some equate money with liberty and happiness, but it also imbues them with misanthropy and the poor ethics of sociopaths. They align themselves with big health to gain political advantage against the current government; their patriotism is twisted by their desire to win.

Nancy and the other left wing dems are basically telling the American people that election or no election, they know better and like it or not they’re going to pass healthcare reform. So we are to just sit down and shut up while they figure out a way around this minor bump.
Then after they force this monstrocity down our throats, Harry and his buddies are going to start dealing with cap and trade, another trillion dollar boondoggle
which they know we need to save the planet
from impending catastrophe whether we know it or not. Seems like Nancy and Harry still haven’t gotten the message.
After all, the Mass. senate seat was lost only because Martha was a lousy candidate who called Curt a Yankee fan, GOD forbid.

Ironically in Barack Obama i see a man who has taken the worst traits of two very different Presidents, Jimmy Carter and Richard Nixon……Like Jimmy Carter,Obama saw his victory as a sign that the people wanted the Democrats and specifically the candidate,rather than a sign that they were currently dissatisfied with the republicans,and not too excited about the opposition candidate. Like Nixon,Obama is showing a paranoid concern over secrecy,closed door meetings,and a habit of thinking that he is so important to the nation that he must get HIS way……I wonder if Obama has his own version of the Plumbers?

Hopefully though unlikely she also needs to be fired. The only reason I can imagine she is kept in office by the voters of her area has been her seniority in the House which has resulted in her being able to muscle many federal $$$ into her area. She has no idea how the blue collar everyday folks are struggling. But she will do the talk of someone that does

Rudderfish – There is no attempt at liberal propaganda, just trying to point out that many Americans die today from lack of available health care. While hospitals will not reject a life threatening injury, they are not obligated to provide treatment beyond that. For example, suppose you are dignosed to have cancer requiring chemotherapy to survive. No insurance, no treatment, early death. It is an illusion that all Americans can simply show up at a hospital and have an equal chance at survival as someone with insurance. While it is comforting to believe that those without insurance are the illegal aliens, or the lazy, or those too cheap to buy it, or those who don’t choose to work, it is most likely your neighbors who lost their jobs and now only can find part time work without benefits. It is people who’s COBRA ran out and they can’t buy insurance because they have high blood pressure, etc. No, while you may sleep at night pretending that all Americans without insurance are covered by a humane safety net, 35,000,000 fellow Americans are probably awake trying to figure out how to survive. I recall a Larson cartoon showing cattle lined up to enter the slaughter house, and one objecting that someone was taking cuts. I see this celebration almost as insane. Enjoy the victory and reap the rewards.

If you should have Cobra, stop your belly aching and give thanks for your 4-5-6-$700/month preimum and the compromised service it delivers. Remember though…don’t miss that premimum payment, because the rest of us are going through life with blinders on not wanting to know what exists on the other side of them.
