Do you see where Nancy Pelosi is standing? Do you see the building that she is front of? Do you understand that "We the People" own the property on which she stands? Do you understand that the "plan" she was there to "champion" will be enacted upon the people to whom she answers to?
Does she understand that we are her boss, and not the other way around?
A few facts to remember about Ms. Pelosi's dog and pony display today...
1. The bill she was discussing, lauding, and claiming to be the ultimate solution today was crafted entirely in secret.
2. The "three committees" that she praised for doing the hard work on the bill met in private and excluded any and all Independent or Republican input on the initiative.
3. Pelosi did not even allow "We The People" aka "The Public" to be present at the announcement of her "public plan" today on public grounds at the publicly owned Capitol building grounds where I myself stood on 9.12 and addressed 1.2 million people.
Arrogance personified are the democrats at present. They believe that in proclaiming the emergence of these health care reform measures, that the announcements of these bills drafted in secret will somehow satisfy the issue of transparency.

In just one little aspect, two of the documents Pelosi released have different figures for the high risk pool program. One says it’s $5 million, the other says $5 billion.* This is their carefully thought out, unrushed, decision making, huh? If they can’t keep the millions straight from the billions, maybe they ought to slow down a little.
*”detailed summary” vs. “section by section summary” as reproduced here: http://www.politico.com/livepulse/1009/Your_must_read_supporting_documents.html
I think it is high time for States to come forward and tell Premiere Pelosi, Reid and Hussien that if they try to cram this “legislation” down the throats of American with NO input, NO comment, NO time, etc, that the states will invoke their powers and not honor this bill.
I do believe that this will happen this fall.
I can hardly wait to be shoved into a boxcar and hauled away.
