It may be a tactical move for reconsideration, but I doubt even reconsideration could reverse this monstrosity

I suggest that everyone who is able cancel their health insurance in open defiance and then file the biggest mass lawsuit when the arrests/fines begin. This atrocity must be quashed as the unconstitutional violation which it is.

All you’ve said is sensible and correct. However, illness and death come to all, regardless of health and lifestyle. No one led a healthier life than I (no drugs, smoking, or even one glass of alcohol my entire life), but at age 39 I had a seizure, which led to a quick diagnosis of a brain aneurysm. Thank God I lived close enough to Emory to have first-class care. I just want the same for everyone else, without quotas, rationing, lines, bureaucrats, and committees interfering and thus possibly causing premature death. Now I’m 58, and I realize that good health can be controlled to a degree for a few years of our lives, but eventually it deteriorates. BTW, I’m not arguing with you; in fact, I fully agree. Guess I’m just feeling really vulnerable and pessimistic this morning. I’m on my way to church. Maybe I’ll have an improved perspective afterwards.

When I got home from work last night around 11:40 and saw it unfolding I became seriously angry...so angry that I needed to go stand in a cold shower for 15 minutes. I was watching the socialist/marxist take over of my country on live television and people were applauding.

When I saw Charlie Rangle speak it tipped the scale.

This is what we get when the Nation turns its lonely eyes to Joe Dimaggio, Kayne West, Oprah Windbag, Whoopie Goldberg, and American Idol..... instead of the Lord.

"No problem. Senate won’t pass it."

Screw that BS. I'm not buying into any more of that "don't worry" crap.

It's time to rise up NOW!

The commies have openly declared war on freedom loving Americans. Anyone that does NOT see that reality is even dumber than DemocRats.

We have totally cut eating out. And I am buying only the bare necessities. Personally, I don't want this imbecile muslim in chief to get the benefit for anything that helps the economy.

You are absolutley right. So many people walk around with earbuds stuck in their head listening to music, and I use that term lightly. They have nary a clue as to what is happening around them. Our nation has become a nation of morons.

This cheering bunch of goons in Congress are like immature adolescents who joyride while drunk. They can’t think two steps ahead about the consequences of their foolish actions. An incredible amount of both intended and unintended consequences will result from this piece of legislative trash.

Next time I get AARP junkmail, I’m going to put it in another envelope with a “don’t send me anymore of your commie propaganda - I have no intentions of joining your unAmerican organization” type letter and send it back to them.

We need to have a Atlas Shrugged week where all of us stop going to work for a week. At least as many as can do it and I suspect there are enough people and bosses out there who would go along with it, that it would send one hellofa message.

Not to mention that Hoffman is about as exciting as a fencepost.

“They are applauding themselves right out of office”

And thats the point. They don`t care if they`re kicked out of office. Their goal is to cause as much irreperable destruction to this country as possible in their time remaining. Getting re-elected is down the list on their list of priorities.

You are 100% correct.  Why do people keep talking about 2010 or even 2012?  It will be too late by then, we need to do something NOW!  We are dis-organized and walking around with our heads in the sand saying "they wouldn't dare".  Well they are ... the ARE doing it while we sit around and watch it on live TV!

About 17% of us have stopped completely and it seems to generate little concern.

They ARE thinking 2 steps ahead ... we are not. This is a plan, fer crissakes, they KNOW what they are doing and want it.

That’s why I say we start anti-incumbant ads right now, before it even gets to the Senate. Name names and keep them from hiding in their mob. With the economy the way it is, people don’t want this kind of spending, they don’t want the government to control them. We just need to get the word out in a simple format that shows what these creeps are doing.
