Is this Another Backroom Deal to Force Obama’s Bill Down the American People’s Throats?
As a vote approaches on Obama and Pelosi’s government takeover of healthcare, Code Red is now considering two supposedly “undecided” California Democrats, Dennis Cardoza and Jim Costa, to now be “yes” votes.
The U.S. Department of Interior announced yesterday that it is increasing water allocations for the Central Valley of California, a region that depends on these water allocations to support local agriculture and jobs. The region has recently been starved for water and as a result unemployment has soared. Not surprisingly, Cardoza and Costa had a hand in the announcement:
“Typically, Reclamation would release the March allocation update around March 22nd, but moved up the announcement at the urging of Senators Feinstein and Boxer, and Congressmen Costa and Cardoza.”(“Interior Announces Increased Water Supply Allocations in California,” U.S. Department of Interior news release, 3/16/10)
Will Cardoza and Costa come clean about this apparent backroom deal for their votes?

That is the way it looks! The sooner the 2nd of November comes the better!
This is like Stalin. Unreal.
The public in this country is so stupid. As long as they have reality TV and ball games. Sheep.
Uz will think da wayz we wants...
They voted yes on the house bill, nothing to see here move along.
It’s time to rise up.
I’m sure the state-run media will lead off with this story tonight. No way they’d pass up on a “30 pieces of silver” opportunity like this! /s/
Realistically, it is looking more and more like this thing will pass with 216 votes. All the undecideds are not undecideds at all. They want to vote no and will only vote yes if the leadership absolutely needs their vote to pass it. But they will not let Nanny down if she needs them.
That’s what it’s looking like to me right now.
Wow. Send this to every news staion and Rush.
Yep, I don’t think Obama would have sent his henchmen out to ridicule the Repubs this past Sunday if he didn’t know that the fix is in.
sounds like a dandy opportunity to unleash some envirowhackos to attack Obama
It will never happen. Demos stick together thicker than thieves, not that you can really tell the difference....
They are blackmailing citizens with their LIVES.
This is simply more evidence of how demented and corrupt our government has become. If they really need the water allocation, they should get it on its own merit; not because of a political backroom deal that locks out other viable candidates for the scarce water resource. How can a country stand with such rampant corruption that punishes the innocent?
- March 18, 1968: In Israel, Yasser Arafat led his first “successful” terrorist strike against Jews. He had achieved first blood. A bus carrying schoolchildren from Tel Aviv on a fieldtrip to the Negev Desert was blown up when it hit an improvised explosive device planted by al-Fatah twelve miles north of the southern Israeli town of Elat. Two Israeli adults were killed and 28 children had their bodies mangled, mutilated, and burned in the blast.
Arafat would eventually return to school and he would ultimately serve as a second lieutenant in the Egyptian Army - things the Muslim Brotherhood encouraged. Then the man who would become the living embodiment of terror moved to Kuwait in 1959. With the help of Muslim Khalil al-Wazir Abu Jihad, Arafat founded al-Fatah - meaning “the conquest.”.
The aspiring terrorist received all of his initial funding from OPEC Emirs in Kuwait. He must have woven a grand story of Islamic conquest because Fatah’s first terrorist act wasn’t until 1965. And even then it was a failed attempt to bomb an Israeli water-pumping station.
In 1967, following the Islamic defeat during the Six-Day War, Yasser Arafat escaped Israel by crossing the Jordan River dressed as a woman carrying a baby. It would become symbolic of his life.
Prior to the Spring of 1968, Arafat and his Fatah were relatively meaningless to Israel. But after their deadly terrorist attack on the Israeli school bus, the young nation was provoked into holding the Al-Karameh Palestinians accountable for what they had done to their children. And while the battle was won overwhelmingly by Israel, Arafat ignored the facts in true Islamic fashion, and the aspiring terrorist called his defeat a “great victory.” The battle was detailed by Time Magazine and Yasser Arafat, whose ugly mug was placed on the cover, became the stuff of legend.
The world’s most famous terrorist became an Islamic hero by mutilating Israeli school children. He was touted as “the man who could stand up to the Jews.” As a result, young Muslims desiring the thrill of jihad, flocked to him and to Fatah. That brought with it an unprecedented gusher of OPEC funding. The world would never be the same.
And so it was, the Egyptian born, Kuwaiti financed, and Muslim Brotherhood corrupted terrorist became the embodiment of Islam’s quest to rule the world and rid the planet of Infidels and Jews. The Era of Islamic terror had begun.

Bribes, pay offs, threats, we have the Chicago mob in the WH and we do nothing. Tea parties are not gonna do it.
Don’t surrender before it is decided.
Have no intention of surrendering, and still think there is a chance this thing could blow up. But realistically it looks something like 75-25 in favor of passage.

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.

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!

This proves they could have turned the water on before the suffering of all those people, and the loss of our American-grown food source.
Extortion and blackmail... Although... gotta wonder if Costa & Cardoza wouldn’t have voted Yes anyway.
