Dems sources: 218 is on the way (We are doomed)

At this moment, Democratic sources say their internal head counts have them breaking through the 218 mark this afternoon. Whether that will mean that more Democrats will come on board, or that Pelosi is going to cut other members lose, is still unclear. But Dems are confident they have won.

When it gets to the Senate, we storm DC a million strong. It has to be a Saturday for maximum turnout.

“and they only want to start the gathering of the money in 2010”
Which will disappear into campaign coffers and paybacks, including those to Hasan’s handlers. “We can get you even at Ft. Hood” while forces are ‘delayed’ from going to Afghanistan. If the bill passes, I bet we’ll hear about deployment soon.
After all, did we really think the stimulus was about the economy when it’s being used as a campaign war chest?

If they didn’t have the votes I doubt they’d bring this to the floor and look like idiots. RIP America.

Come November 2010, theyre gone.With ACORN thugs stuffing the ballot box, don't be so sure.
And really, this treasonous act goes WAY beyond the effects of the ballot box. People need to lose a lot more than their cushy politician jobs over this.

“These traitors have no idea what theyre starting.”
I think you’re right. If you’re playing along, your political affiliation doesn’t matter. The only ones who are happy about this are the ignorant who think that health care crafted by this administration will be in abundance at dollar store prices.
To: BornToBeAmerican
Even then, what is done can be undone. Simple.When are we going to undo Social Security? When are going to undo Johnson's "Great Society"? When are going to undo AmTrak, Medicare, Medicaid, or the rest of the communist/socialist programs that our government uses to steal votes with our money?
There's only one way to undo all this, and nobody's got the balls to do it.

These traitors have no idea what theyre starting. Well, let's see now. One other time in US history the same puzzle pieces were all in place. There was elite who insisted that they had rights superior to those of others including the right to totally control their lives and take away their wealth on a whim. That elite decided they were going to go their own way and do what they damn well pleased no matter what the Constitution and/or the majority of the US said about it. That same group of elites proclaimed even though their chosen path was going to work an economic hardship on everyone except the elites themselves they didn't care, they had the right to be better off than everyone else and they also knew what was best for everyone else. Last but not least, they had spent decades defending their belief that they had every right to murder voiceless millions who they called sub-human while having their huge plantations run by black folks theyd brainwashed into worshiping their Massa. So if these traitors don't know what they're starting, they should given the clear lesson in our own history. One thing I am sure of, though, theyre not going to like the more than equal and opposite reaction theyre building up for themselves. have a nice day

Every Dem that is in a swing district can count on this ending their political careers! Most Americans do not want this.
