You know, given the utter failure of Maine’s version of statewide healthcare, you would think that Snowe would seriously consider voting against this piece of garbage ObamaCare they are attempting and WILL shove down our collective throats.
I have said it once and I will continue to say it: I will vote for any GOP-type candidate that guarantees to repeal, remove, whatEVER this and any other thing like Cap and Tax, etc.
Maine’s system is broke. That’s why Snowe is willing to vote for the Federal takeover. She’s wants the rest of us to bail out Maine. I absolutely despise these morons. Central planning of one-sixth of the American economy is what they’re forcing down our throats. Socialists are losing all over Europe because of the failure of their policies. And we’re hellbent on adopting them.
Republicans started all of this. George Bush made it acceptable for government to take over education and banks, to spend like there was no tomorrow, and to guarantee all kinds of benefits to people who are in the country illegally. He trashed the Republican brand more effectively than Richard Nixon ever did. And the Republican lemmings in Congress allowed him to do it. Now they’re bellyaching because the Democrats are taking over and extending everything they started.
How do we stop this madness?
The problem is that our national elite, which imcludes many so-called conservatives like Cornyn, WANT this. because of the sheer power it puts into their hands. When they call Palin, who is really a moderate Conservative, a “populist,” as if she were Tom Watson dedux, you know what they are about. They are probaly going to get their way because Conservatives—in the end—will not fight hard enough, will not use all the weapons they have in their hands. They could delay this thing into January— though I doubt they will—and let public opinion kill it. But if that happened, there would hell to bear, and they don’t have the nerve.
Except that to those who are voting for it they know it isn't about "health care" at all. Control.
