It's Only the Beginning -- Long Battle Ahead
Political Blog ^ | March 18, 2010 | Raquel Okyay

Posted on 03/18/2010 8:26:50 AM PDT by Raquel

Obama et al. refuse to give up the fight to pass health care “reform” even though they have lost the battle in the public square in what has become a year- long war between Tea Party Patriots and Washington D.C.

Delaying a planned trip overseas this weekend, the President will wait for Congress to “vote” on Obamacare and has demanded an end to debate on the issue. “The time for talking is over, let the bill have a vote” the President begs.

But this isn’t about an up or down vote anymore, so determined to pass the bill, it doesn’t matter to the President that the People have rejected it, it doesn’t matter to the President that the People are lining the streets in protest, according to Obama et al., the bill WILL be shoved down your throats, one way or the other, like it or not.

The President pretends he’s not paying attention to procedure. He balks at the idea that the bill is too expensive or too intrusive, he continues with the same talking points he’s been spewing for a full year, yada, yada, yada,”If you like your health insurance you can keep it” is just one example of the lies Obama et al. have been telling. (This claim, among others, has been debunked by the experts time and time again.)

Obama’s perspective: The ends justify the means.

They will never quit on this. If it doesn’t pass now, they will try again in November after the elections. Defeated Democrats won’t have any reason not to vote for it.

If they keep this up either one of two things will happen:

1. There won’t BE REAL elections in November

2. If there are real elections, there won’t be any Democrats to worry about. The stinkin’ sewer dwellers will become extinct.

Pelosi is telling waivering reps in the House that they will address their concerns in the reconciliation bill that will follow if they will only vote for the Senate bill.

The dirty little secret is that after the Senate bill is passed and Obambi signs it, the reconciliation will not come up until after the Nov. election, and when all the Blue Dogs lose their seats there won't be a reason to address their concerns.

The author reminds us of George W. Bush famous words: Bring it on!!

Well, here's another one:

We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.

The socialist usurpers will only escalate - just like they have been.

It’s BEEN up for Votes. That didn’t work. Then it was Reconciled. Then it was promised to be revisited. Now it is “Deemed”. Next, it will be “Declared” by Obama himself.

He won’t give up. The constitution is nothing more than a roadblock to these “People”. It WILL get passed, and it WILL be the Obama version. It WILL include all the things we have fought against (immigration, education reforms, Cap and Trade) and possibly more ! I think it will include Card Check !

Your point number 1. may be right, in which case, we must hope it’s blatant enough that it provokes either a coup to restore the Constitution or a popular uprising.

2. is flat wrong: the deemin’RATs can hold a lame duck session of Congress in late November or December before those elected in Novemnber take office.

We shall not flag nor fail, we shall go on to the end.

We shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air...whatever the cost may be.

We shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in fields, in streets and on the hills. We shall never surrender.

I suppose you’re right, the Dems could hold a lame duck session after the Nov. election, but at that point, I would hope they would be so utterly demoralized, they wouldn’t dare, but nothing is off the table with these cheaters!

He understands using mobs to get his way, he helped his cousin do that in Kenya. I would not be surprised if mobs are part of his strategy in November. That, together with a surge in TARP money, ACORN registrations and fraudulent ballot boxes will be used to minimize losses. That’s his plan anyway. We will have to overcome it.

The elections come down to one thing. Who will control the vote count? Soros is going to make sure that every state has a dim SOS, while we don’t even know the name and party affiliation of our SOS.

After the elections, if the Dems lose, they won't care about their seats anymore, but they will care about where they are working after January. They will want to get those plum lobbying and administration jobs that will be offered to them if they vote yes. They will be mad that they lost their seats, and want to send a big "f-you" to the voters who threw them out. It will be a lot easier for Pelosi to get a majority when she is on her way out, and they will not have another chance for decades.

The House can just pass the Senate version then.

In fact, I am surprised that the Dems haven't just dropped the health care fight and decided to wait until November and December. It would be a smarter move.

If they do try this, by the way, the response of the people needs to be so huge and overwhelming that they change their mind. We will need to shut down DC, maybe surround the capitol with 2 million people.

Soros learned from Stalin that it not who votes that counts but who counts the votes.

Exactly. We need to alert all Tea Party org. to be aware that the dems are actually training people to take these offices. We will have to be super active with boots on the ground to defeat anyone the dems run for SOS.
