It matters not if you are liberal or conservative…We all had better start to pay attention to this lesson…..

I was in Washington DC yesterday. With 20 other restaurateurs we visited with the Louisiana congressional delegation. We had an enlightening talk with United States Senator Mary Landrieu, if you’re interested in what a member of the Democratic leadership of the Senate had to say to her constituents, then read on.

Talking directly to me because of a question I asked her, concerning the fact that we will be forced to shrink our workforce and lay off several hundred employees if Obamacare takes effect she put me in my place. She said the following:

· We are paying for your employees health insurance now, if you cannot stay in business and pay for them, then we will just continue to pay for them after you are out of business. I think she really believes she is paying for it…she forgets that we…you and I are paying for it.

· We believe people need insurance more than jobs. I seriously doubt the folks I will have to terminate will agree with that, especially since I pointed out to her that many employees in hospitality are otherwise unemployable since they are unskilled and their alternative is welfare.

· The law does not differentiate between companies in industries with single digit profit margins like hospitality and industries with much higher profit margins…you have to learn to deal with it.

· If you don't like the bills we are passing then elect others.

· The bill is law, I do not want to discuss it, deal with it.

As God be my witness that is what she told us…of course I am not quoting her, we were all in too much shock to remember her exact words. But this is from a Senator with 5 more years in office, and the arrogance was unbelievable.

Everyone is for Health Reform, but if the cost is putting hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work, surely we can find a better way.

Everyone is for helping our environment, but if the cost is putting hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work, surely we can find a better way.

If you believe the cost being forced on businesses by our current regime in power is not going to be passed on to the consumers---and that is you and I--- then you need to stop and take another look.

When government action causes the things I buy to go up, they may not call it increasing taxes…but the effect is just the same.

I hope you will find the item below informative…because you had better believe that is where the Democratic Party is trying to take us. And if you believe as I believe that what they are doing is going against what America stands for, then you have one final chance to stop this madness and it comes in November. Go out and vote for a Conservative so they can first STOP the madness and then begin to curb it.

“The bill is law, I do not want to discuss it, deal with it.”

Senator Landrieu isn’t up for re-election until 2014. No doubt she’s saying what many Dems wish they could say, but for those pesky voters they will face this fall. After November, a lot more Dems are likely to take the same posture. Remember “let’s move on” during all the Clinton scandals?

Unfortunately, too many of them in the House are gerrymandered into safe districts.

Fat pig Moon-pie Mary is an arrogant, dishonest, despicable excuse for a US Senator.

This is the way the democratic elite think. Few of them have ever held a job outside of government nor ever had to complete in the real world.

Dear employees. As a result of my recent meeting with senator landrieu, it will be neccesary for me to lay many of you off very soon. The senetor said it was more important for you to be on welfare.

Here is the senators home address and phone number.

Here is her husband’s business and home numbers and address.

She has two kids, here is the info on them.

You will soon have more free time to visit with her and her family.

Sincerely, the guy who used to sign your check.

She'll simply deny the veracity of the Mr. Hamer's report. Essentially, she'll call him a liar.

I don't think her attitude is surprising at all. It's commonly held, and not just by the elite in the chambers of Congress, but also by those who draft the legislation, enforce it, judge its application, and so forth.

Excellent response.

The arrogance of the Democrats sure works in a trickle down manner from Nobama on down.

How many other Democrats have learned the important thrust of the uplifted chin?

“..she’ll call him a liar.”

which is why ALL such meetings, of We the People, with our federal and state employees need at least recording, if not taping.

If there were ever a need for necktie parties I’d say this is it.

He sounds suprised. Why would anyone expect a whore to have any class? She got her bribe money.
