The Beginning of the End

I can't believe what the U.S. House of Representatives did last night. I've been in shock all day. I haven't listened to the radio or watched the news or anything. This wasn't supposed to have been able to happen in this country. The United States of America becoming western Europe? This isn't the country I grew up in or have had the privilege to defend.

There are a few things that I am most certainly sure of. The first is that this will not be allowed to stand. The first time I heard that folks would be required to purchase insurance I knew it was unconstitutional and eventually I will be proved correct because this will go to the US Supreme Court.

The next thing is that this bill is a public option bill. If people are required to buy insurance, who the hell are they supposed to get it from? Blue Cross? I don't think that Obama would allow that. So who does that leave? The only answer is, the government. If anyone has a different opinion I would love to hear it.

Then there is the fact that the American people will rise up at the polls in November. Not only are the folks upset that this massive entitlement package has passed, but the way votes were secured is found to be reprehensible. I understand that deals have been made since the times of the first Continental Congress, but the way it was done in the past year, so openly and with no regard to decency was just despicable. I have heard many people call this bribery, I can't say that they're wrong. Every Representative and Senator that voted for this bill had better run for cover. Almost all have cut their political throats. They're just too dense to see it.

Another reason people will revolt in November 2010 and November 2012 is that the majority of people now know Barack Obama is a liar. Joe Wilson was right. Almost everything this president said on the campaign trail has been proven to be a lie. There has been no transparency in this administration. There has been no change in the way Washington operates. There is no way in hell that Obama can reduce the deficit after four years the way that he has obligated us to almost eight trillion dollars ($8,000,000,000,000) this year. He was going to be the most bi-partisan president ever, remember? We see how well that's worked.

So I hope that the pinheads enjoy themselves for the next little while. It won't last long.

The American people won't let you.
