12,500 new IRS employees. They are the nasty, most unconstitutional collection agency ever known. They can zero out your bank account, attach your wages and confiscate (sp) your property without due process. Of course they are part of the health care bill...penalties are part of the package for those of us that “Will ...Not Comply”. Torches and Pitch Forks will march on the White House.

I think the ammo shortage is about to get bigger...

They were losing votes on Deem and Pass (Cardoza was the first) so they dropped it.

Now Pelosi needs 12 votes or so. Thus, the trial balloon on the executive order to try to get Stupak.

Last topic was regarding undocumented....illegals and how they would get coverage....they still go to emergency rooms....meeting now breaking up.

I don't think they wanted to talk about that....

Short recess...not breaking up.

and with no 'Demon Pass' COVER, these House Dems will vote YES in enough numbers to get to 216??

There is so much crap being flung around right now it's impossible to even know what the truth is or what's really even going on, I don't even think Congress knows.

Bammie has turned this into a turd world bananna circus, this is just un freakin believable.

Chaos is the left’s middle name.

I think the NEO-LENINISTS miscalculated. But they will not cease and desist.

OTOH We may be on the verge of something positive.

Looking for a way out that would save face? If the Blue Dogs balk on the Senate bill, Nancy would say they are painted into a corner. In the meantime Bummer will have something else dramatic to distract the people.

I’d like to add a noobie who has shown a very Constitutional stance to the list - Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah.

He publicly declares his CCW permit and was glad to see that the local stores were finally carrying increased inventory of .40 cal. I forget which Glock he carries, The G23 or G27.

He’s also rated pretty highly (#3) by gradegov. http://www.gradegov.com/

Now it looks like Deem and Pass is dead, Jim. If it ever was alive and not just a gimmick to divert attention away form the end game plan.

you post "hubris of his is going to bite him back just like a Greek tragedy"

Indeed. 'tis the fate of narcissists.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissus_(mythology)

Narcissus or Narkissos (Greek: Νάρκισσος), possibly derived from ναρκη (narke) meaning "sleep, numbness," in Greek mythology was a hero from the territory of Thespiae in Boeotia who was renowned for his beauty. In the various stories he is exceptionally cruel, in that he disdains those who love him. As divine punishment he falls in love with a reflection in a pool, not realizing it was his own, and perishes there, not being able to leave the beauty of his own reflection.

PS: I HATE these vermin more than Osama Bin Laden.

Sure, Osama only wants to kill you, or convert you. But these guys want to enslave you, and worse your children and grandchildren.

okay ... re: my last post, “conspicuous by absence”, I must have misunderstood the statement when someone mentioned only Ryan and Cantor were worth sending back for re-election. Lost in translation, sorry FRolks!

My husband used to have a small business. He gave up on it because he couldn't work full time and run a small business from home at the same time.

Anyway, he forgot to file the paperwork to close it. He didn't file taxes for it because he did not earn revenues anymore. We had an IRS agent come to our house while nobody was home. This agent walked around our property and looked into the windows of our house. Our neighbor said that there was a “thuggish” looking guy in our yard looking around. He said the guy left just as he was about ready to call the police. He left his card jammed in our front door with “call me” written on it. My husband called him and straightened it out.

I guess I'm lucky that I didn't have a rifle jammed in my face or something like that. But these people literally walked around my property like they owned the place. That would be because they believe that they do.

Now you know why there is a 2nd amendment. Thank God for it!

This is so reminding me of the BUSH vs. GORE, count the Chads debacle. Remember that every time GORE or his Attorneys tried something, they were so confused and stopped by another court, til finally ONE Great Judge made the correct decision put this to an end. This is happening before our eyes once more. Thank you Lord. There is just no way for them to find a way around all of their criminal activity under any law, yet they keep digging. <\i>

I think the exact same thing. If this bill goes down, we have only God to thank.
