"We should both deny liberals their cause and give them martyrdom."

I like the idea, but it is unlikely that we will get the White House and a large enough majority in both houses of Congress to kill this before it becomes so entwined with our lives that the system cannot be unraveled.

Here is what is happening.

Mary Landreau of Louisiana was balking on the plan and got her state $300 Million.
Lieberman is balking and who knows what he has secured his state.
Dick Durban secured Gitmo North for Illinois. Now Burris is balking some, so what is he going to get for Chicago?
What will Ben Nelson deal for? Base expansions at NorCom?
What will the price be for a vote on this 2000 page monstrosity? Brokered behind closed doors, with nothing but vagueness and abstract benefits and Enron style accounting.
It’s only 20% of our economy they want to control. They only want access to our bank accounts to determine how much our fair share will be and zap it from our accounts with no oversight.

The pattern is suspicious. It seems that anyone who acts like they are going to fudge their vote, even remotely casting doubt, is going to get something in return for their state as an enticement in exchange for their vote.

And we have no idea what the ultimate additional cost to American taxpayers will be to pay for this political fascism and bribery. Money is no longer the issue. For America, it begins the end of liberty and prosperity, and sets up a socialist bureaucracy of left wing fascism.
This is war being waged on liberty. If this is pulled off without a shot fired, considering the 50 year perpetual stand off with the Red Commies in the USSR, this may end up being the all time easiest conquest of any civilization.

NOT ON MY WATCH! I hate COMMIES!

My email to Senator Kay Hagan:

If the Senator from Louisana can get 300 million for for her state for voting the same way you are, why are you giving yours away for nothing. I think we got screwed, don’t you?
