How does one reverse this if it passes without it bankrupting us first?

Every Socialist program that Zero wants is hidden in one or the other of his massive spending bills. I’m sure the public actually thought there would be debate before he nationalized all our industries, our health care system, our banks, etc. He knows if held up to the light of day, none of these would pass. So he has to hide them in amongst the pages of totally unrelated things.

I just don’t see historical precedent for government growth being reversed short of revolution.

Obama’s quote from last November: He said he would cause energy prices to skyrocket - and tax costs would be passed down to the consumer:

“When I was asked earlier about the issue of coal…under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would NECESSARILY SKYROCKET …even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad, because I’m capping greenhouse gasses, coal power plants, natural gas…you name it…whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, they would have to retro-fit their operations.

That will cost money…they will pass that money on to the consumers. You can already see what the arguments are going to be during the general election. People will say Obama and Al Gore …these folks...they’re going to destroy the economy.”


So he knew - ‘they’re going to destroy the economy’.

George Bush is the one that put that stupid bear on the list. Even though the bear population has increased many times over the last 20 years.

It was discussed here at length that this action by Bush would lead to exactly this end result.

Bush the RINO socialist.

“Thank you George W. Bush!”

Why Bush? Did he vote in the 2006 election? Remember how us Conservatives “stayed home or voted only on local issues” because we wouldn’t vote for RINOS?

Bush didnn’t do this. The voters did. So we got what we deserved.

They could have hidden the construction costs for concentration camps in this bill and no one would catch it.

Nobody voted to put the polar bear on the list. It was an administrative decision by a RINO administration.

Bush did his share to bring in the socialists, being he is one himself.

One can deny his actions, but to do so only adds to the problem.

Bush put this stupid bear on the list, you cannot deny this fact. And we knew once he did that this is what the left would use it for, and so did he.

Bush isn’t a Socialist. He has done what pretty much every President has done. He gave his friends the keys to the candy store.

Now Obama is a Socialist. But more than that, he is a criminal. He is going to steal everything and use ideology as his cover. Just like the Soviet Politburo.
