Harry Reid's Holiday Jam
Wall Street Journal ^ | 12-15-10 | WSJ

Posted on 12/15/2010 7:58:15 AM PST by WOBBLY BOB

The lame duck Congress was supposed to limp out of town this Friday, but yesterday Mr. Reid announced that in the dwindling days before Christmas he plans to pass the bipartisan tax deal, the New Start arms treaty with Russia, the immigration Dream Act, a "lands bill," and a bill to let gays serve openly in the military. Oh, and yesterday he also dropped on his colleagues a 1,924-page, $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill for fiscal 2011 that no one but a few Appropriators have read, if even they have.

Yes he can be stopped. If the Senate passes this we need to descend upon Congress and all be willing to go to jail. This creep was put back into office with Mafia and Union money and he needs to be stopped at any cost along with any in Congress that goes along with it.

Another TRILLION DOLLAR secret tax bill that can only be read after it is approved.

I just do not understand. We ask so little of Congress:
1. Pass a budget every October.
2. Protect our borders.
3. Read bills and treaties before you vote on them.

But rather than do the job they are elected to do; they insist on trying to micro-manage everyone’s life.

If the rank and file demonic-rat wants this group of pin-heads to tell them what to eat, what to drive, not to smoke, etc... Fine!

But stay out of my life, because I do not buy into your sniveling “We are all just slugs and need big government to protect us” attitude.

Most of these corrupt bastards would probably think missing some Christmas ham the equal sacrafice of a tour in Afghanistan.

Nevadans sold this country out. The Casinos and Unions fed and bought votes it appears. I read that the Casinos forced their people to work for Reid. I would not spend a penny in Nevada if my life depended upon it.
