BREAKING - One Step Closer to Obama's Healthcare
The Liberal Healthcare plan is one step closer to reality. On a rare Saturday night vote the Senate voted 60-39 to take the Healthcare debate to the Senate floor.
FOX News-
"Sweeping health care legislation has cleared its first hurdle in the Senate on a party-line vote.
The 60-39 vote clears the way for a historic debate after Thanksgiving on the legislation. The measure is designed to extend coverage to an estimated 31 million Americans who lack it and crack down on insurance industry practices that deny benefits."
POLITICO-
"Senate Democrats pushed ahead with President Barack Obama’s vision of health reform Saturday night – but at the same time, exposed significant divides in the party that make it all but impossible to complete work on a plan by year’s end.
Democrats voted strictly along party lines, 60 to 39, to send an $848 billion health care bill to the floor after Thanksgiving, but not before a clutch of moderates served notice that they couldn’t back the bill in its current form."

What a waste of public showing. Everyone already knew this bull___! was going to go thru. The libs have twisted so many arms and given away so much of our tax dollars to push thru this bill that is fundamentally going to bankrupt America.
Where are the politicians who could say - yes lets do something to help those who don't have insurance...but do we have to change the whole system for such a small few? What about regulating the insurance companies, offering competition over state lines, and paying for those small few who don't have?
What we are doing is "fundamentally changing 1/6th of American's economic system for a few." That sounds to me like an opportunity to TAKE OVER the system and CONTROL THE SYSTEM. Like Social Security & Medicare....who are going to end up bankrupt...when you let the Federal G take over they DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RUN Anything!!
I fault both the Republicans and Democrats!! We need some strong Conservative Revolutionaries who believe in the Constitution and who can get us on track without a lot of Government intervention.
When have we seen the Government run anything RIGHT? The only thing I can think of is the MILITARY and that's because they keep the stinking politicians out of there most of the time.
Glenn Beck is giving a play book on the Obama administration, the debt, and how America is sinking --- and it's pretty scary!! Do the politicians not see this coming or do they feel that they are SAFE and they will be protected by whatever storm happens.
LETS VOTE ALL DEMOS/REPUBLICANS OUT OF OFFICE and get people in who want to work for the people who put them there!! Term limits should be inacted immediately. Those who vote against term limits, pay increases for themselves, pouring money into stimulus bills that are fraudulent should be TARGETED FOR IMMEDIATE REMOVAL!!
DON'T JUST TELL YOUR POLITICIAN YOU'RE GOING TO VOTE FOR SOMEONE ELSE - TELL THEM YOU ARE GOING TO AGGRESSIVELY WORK AGAINST THEM TO ENSURE THEY ARE VOTED OUT OF OFFICE!!

Louisianans might want to surround Mary Landscrew's offices. Start chanting "bye-bye" for her tipping the scales toward the money, rather than the will of the people.

We need a complete turn over in congress, term limits, make them accept the sub-standard healthcare they are forcing on us and no vote for ANY politician that won't demand that Obama prove his citizenship.
They're all in on this coverup, including the phony Fox News Conservatives. The only guy with enough balls, Lou Dobbs, to even mention Obama's eligibility was booted from CNN.
The Tea Party must DEMAND he release his records, it's the ONLY chance we have to undo the damage this Commie Muslim has done to our once great Country.

i've already started my campaign. i went tax exempt. if enough people will join in they can't put everyone in jail and we can crater this obamacare crap. he's a maxest along with reid and pelosi. they used their influence to buy off the fence sitters. the lousiana senator and representive were given over a hundred million dollars for their votes, therefore they don't need my income tax. besides if pelosi gets her way it's a fifteen thousand dollar fine if you don't take the gov't insurance program. i figure if i go to jail for income tax invasion i'll have health care anyway. what really makes me mad is i'm 68 years old and i had a medicare replacment policy. now that's going to be gone. everyone that belongs to aarp should withdraw. they sold us out. triple a will get you the same thing aarp does and it's not costly.

Under Bush the Dems always threatened a "Filibuster". Why wasn't this done by the Rep.???? I call it fair play. Somewhere in my gut I feel that the Rep. could have done something more. I don't feel that a NO vote is any guarantee to re-elect them.
Hey Bonnie Z, let me know when the motor home is heading out cause my fifthwheel won't be far behind.

Today's news was so very, very depressing. The bill was purposefully rushed through in 2009. The administration believes the negative emotions generated by this bill will subside by the 2010 elections, the impact will not be so raw, and people will forget, or perhaps, accept total government control of our healthcare. We must keep the fire going.

WARNING!
Each Senator or Representative who votes for "The President's HealthCare Proposal" will be sent home at the next election! "You will not like the way it turns out, I guarantee it!"
