I love this guy.

Love this guy.

Some members of Congress who voted for ObamaCare, and who are now telling us that they realize this legislation has flaws which they intend to correct, are missing the point.

This is Administration and apparatchik code-speak for "Add more shit on the pile"..

This election in 5 days is the STOP WORK order on this whole mess. Throw ANY Democrat out, vote for any new TRUE Republican aspirant, and vote out any RINO Republican....

[Marathoner]

Man, how this wish THIS MAN had been the first African American President.

[smoothsailing]

We have a strange man in the White House.

It's a rare day that I would accuse Dr. Sowell of understatement! :o)

[Psalm 144]

Sowell punches the center out of the bullseye each and every time.

[Jim Scott]

Dr. Sowell neatly capsulizes what's at stake on November 2nd. This election isn't just about who gets to be Speaker of the House or what party has more power but, as Dr. Sowell wrote: "What path this country will take for many years to come". Right now, we're on a path to losing our freedoms to a bunch of wannabe tyrants eager to run our lives, destroy our economy and reduce America to some Euro-weeny socialist state populated by dependents of the all-powerful government. This is not the America any of us want or will roll over and allow socialist tyrants to impose on our great nation. We must remove the cancer that is socialism being administered by congressional Democrats. We can't remove Barack Hussein Obama until 2012, but we can weaken and thwart his Marxist/Alinsky schemes intended to weaken America and destroy the American Dream. Vote on November 2nd - with a vengeance.

0bamacare was, in fact, everything that Sowell says it was and more. It was not an act of any process of representative government, it was the act of a victorious party celebrating its victory by steamrollering a bill whose contents Pelosi smirked wouldn't even be known until it was passed. This was no act of desperation, it was a blatant abuse of power intended not only to attain the contents of the bill but to rub the opponents' noses in the fact that everything the Dems ever wanted could be passed over their opponents' objections.

What is amusing at this point is anyone on the Left wondering (apparently sincerely) where the anger is coming from. It's coming from people who were deliberately and systematically slapped in the face. The people who did it knew perfectly well what they were doing - need I cite Pelosi's oversized gavel waved in the public's face? The only real surprise is how quickly retribution is coming down.

BTTT!

[Know et al]

Some members of Congress who voted for ObamaCare, and who are now telling us that they realize this legislation has flaws which they intend to correct, are missing the point.

The very reason for holding hearings on pending legislation, listening to witnesses on all sides of the issue, and having Congressional debates that will be reported and commented on in the media, is so that problems can be explored and alternatives considered before the legislation is voted into law.

Rushing ObamaCare into law too fast for anyone to have read it served no other purpose than to prevent this very process from taking place.

Touche’ Dr Sowell Pinpoint accuracy.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

“We have a strange man in the White House. This election is a crossroads, because either his power will be curbed by depriving him of his huge Congressional majorities or he will continue on a road that jeopardizes both our freedom and our survival.”

Truer words have never been spoken! I love you, Dr. Sowell!

[Hoodat]

I went to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
I went to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord above, have mercy now,
Save poor Bob if you please

Standin' at the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
Whee-hee, I tried to flag a ride
Didn't nobody seem to know me, everybody pass me by

Standin' at the crossroads, risin' sun goin' down
Standin' at the crossroads baby, the risin' sun goin' down
I believe to my soul now, po' Bob is sinkin' down

You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
That I got the crossroad blues this mornin',
Lord, baby I'm sinkin' down

"For all its sweeping and scary provisions, ObamaCare is not nearly as important as the way it was passed. If legislation can become laws passed without either the public or the Congress knowing what is in those laws, then the fundamental principle of a free, self-governing people is completely undermined."

[mc5cents]

All I can say to Dr. Sowell is STO LAT!! My he live 100 years!

[Yardstick]

We have a strange man in the White House.

We sure do. What a strange situation we've let ourselves get into.
