Pelosi: 'Once we kick through this door,' more reform will follow
Washington Examiner ^ | March 16, 2010 | Byron York

Posted on 03/16/2010 2:53:43 AM PDT by gusopol3

If you have any doubt that the Democratic leadership of the House views passing the current health care reform bill as the beginning, not the end, of the process of creating a national government health care system, just note what Speaker Nancy Pelosi told a group of bloggers on Monday. "My biggest fight has been between those who wanted to do something incremental and those who wanted to do something comprehensive," Pelosi said, according to an account by Washington Post reform advocate Ezra Klein. "We won that fight, and once we kick through this door, there'll be more legislation to follow."

She’s betting that won’t happen. She expects a lot of squawking but nothing more. Once it’s done, she doesn’t think we will have the moxie to undo it.

I am for a national shutdown by every productive person. Let the marxists try to do something about it and that would be bad for them. Hopefully the end for a few generations.

These freakin scum have no lives except forcing their socialist schemes on the American people whether they want it or not. They are termites constantly burrowing and chipping away because they have nothing else to do with their nutty neurotic lives. That’s also why they latch onto global warming hysterics.

They have warped messiah complexes where they will save people via socialist government schemes. Control them too

Liberals and Democrats are truly the party of big government

Tea Party are planning a protest at the Millington TN office of Rep John Tanner tomorrow just before noon.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

On the Bubble (Major developments from the “yes” and “no” columns in the House)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2467046/posts

Congressional Dems on Twitter
http://www.arrghpaine.com/congressional-dems-on-twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!
1-800-828-0498 , 1-866-220-0044, 1-866-338-1015, 877-851-6437, 877-210-5351

Well, Pelosi is about as safe as they come with San Fran being her district. But maybe in a year that saw the “Kennedy” seat go to a Republican, there is hope to unseat the Wicked Witch of the West.

John Dennis is running against her and sounds like a big improvement to me. Not perfect, but a big improvement.

No, she’s fine in the heat, but throw a bucket of water on her and she’ll melt into a puddle. Dropping a house on her will also work. I saw both methods in a movie once.

The Dims have proven they have no respect for bipartisanship.

I hope we can achieve a 2/3rds majority in both House and Senate in November.

With a 2/3rds majority, any bill becomes Veto-proof. The President must sign or veto any bill within ten days, then it goes back to both houses and they can override his veto with a 2/3rds majority. “Neuter Obama” should be a rallying cry for November.

The ONLY reason there might be any money is because the older people, ill, injured, disabled and unborn will face rationed or otherwise severely cut medical care. Money saved by not covering them will lead directly to their deaths. Opening up estate monies will lead to spending by the heirs.

This proposition endorses the ABSENCE of life-reaffirming measures. While perhaps not yet euthanasia, as in Soros' project on Death and Dying in America, the intentional absence of care, starvation and perhaps even dehydration due to regulation of water in a certain area, or making people choose between power and provision, it is the removal of life support guaranteed in the phrase "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."

It is amazing these 'representatives' think they will not be affected, or that their families will, in turn, not end up among those hardest hit, is it not? Do they REALLY think there is no reckoning, anywhere? Eventually, there will be no one not affected, after all.

You fall in a category of

tobacco use

advanced aged

obesity

disability

anxiety

depression

pick a category, etc.

Add to the list what NEMDF sent me....

Add:

* history of voting GOP

* history of not donating to DNC

* history of not paying taxes, no matter the reasons

* any history that can be translated as subversive, anti-union, etc.

* and so on.......

...and 1st, there'll be a counseling session

...then, you'll be assigned to a 'doctor' or comminty aide or some such to evaluate you, and you'll get a 'mark' or patch or a cross to wear on an armband. Maybe even a red cross.

...then, you'll be told that you're not making the correct amount of progress

...then, you'll be grouped into some facility to participate in 'active' treatment

...then,...you're out of the way.

And, your heirs will get your money to spend as they wish.

She's not worthy of a final resting place. I suggest letting the buzzards pick her rotting carcass clean, if the buzzards will even have her.
