Health Care: Democrats on the take and in the dead of night pass an execrable piece of legislation that they haven't read, the public doesn't want and only socialists could love. What has happened to this country?
If we hadn't stayed up past midnight Sunday, we wouldn't have known what was going on. Here we thought a vote on the proposed health care overhaul wasn't going to take place until Thursday night — Christmas Eve.
But there they were, the United States Senate, at 1 a.m. Monday, rushing to vote in the middle of a snowstorm to close debate on the most important piece of legislation of our time — the nationalization of the U.S. health care system. And we've been scrambling ever since to make sense of it.
Let's see if we have this right:
• This was a vote on a Democrat-concocted scheme that Americans have rejected every time it's been proposed for 100 years and that is opposed again, by 54% to 41% by the public at large, by 2-to-1 by practicing physicians and by every last member on the Republican side of the aisle.

Yeah...it snuck in like a marching band with an F15 flyover!
The dumbest 52% of voters wanted this and they voted for this. Sure, some of them got buyers’ remorse since last year, but when its time to vote again, the dumbest 52% can be counted on to vote for the communists again.
I’m thinkin’ fewer and fewer folks are “asleep” today like they were a year ago.
It’s the government and the media who are asleep. It’s us who are yelling ....
Creeps in???? More like it came crashing in with 100 piece marching tuba band all wearing combat boots.
It’s time to take back the country.
You hate Bush, you get this. Asked for and received.
is it socialism or is it really fascism to fine people if they don’t buy private insurance?
There are still people sleeping through it.
It is interesting that all of this health care business is done in the dark of night. The devil’s workshop. Pure evil.
The nation will shut down completely, cannot afford this monstrosity. Impossible.
Most of us weren’t sleeping we’ve had to endure every minute of this buffon and his goons !
I don’t know that I can agree that America has been asleep while socialism has crept in. NaziEmperorObama and his ilk have been working very quickly to force Americans onto this path. If you consider that a majority of Americans are dead set against ObamaCare, yet the Democrats have crammed this down our throats nonetheless. Does this mean we are asleep or does this mean that Washington does whatever the hell it wants, taxpayers and voters be damned?
puhleese. Socialism crept in 80 years ago. You’re looking at fascism.
I called my reps this AM and told them flat out: you just voted yourself out of a job. I will not only vote against you, I will volunteer my time and donate my money to who-ever your opponent is. When I'm done fooling around on FR tonight, I'm going to be investigating how we can generate a recall in my State. Supposedly it is part of every State's constitution that their Senators can be recalled. Well, lets start the ball rolling.
“It’s the first time in our nation’s history the government has made Americans buy something. Get used to it. It’s going to become a pattern.”
Bullshit. The Leftist Dems, Libs, Socialists better get used to what’s going to happen to their asses in November 2010 before I, or WE have to get used to what they do to us.
Irrelevant, no. Witness the last election. The clueless clearly were a factor.
And it's still TBD if they will be awake in 2010.
It is NOT by accident that we find ourselves in our current situation… it is by design... the result of 40+ years of something called “Ideological Subversion”.
There are 4 stages to Ideological Subversion:
1. Demoralization
2. Destabilization
3. Crisis (we are at the beginning of this stage)
4. Normalization (which is anything but normal!).
This cancer has been growing silently (but completely out in the open) and is close to destroying our country.
Read this recent American Thinker article and watch this short video/interview. They feature Yuri Bezmenov, an ex-KGB agent and Russian defector, describing exactly how Ideological Subversion works (it should sound eerily familiar).
Video (interview from mid 1980’s... there are many videos on youtube featuring Mr. Bezmenov, but this is a great one to start with, skip to 2:12 if limited on time):

Please share with everyone you know. The video has over 120,000 views, but it needs to have 100 million.
Maybe, just maybe, if people realize that what is happening in our country right now is the result of a methodical, malicious, determined effort to destroy America, they will wake up and fight before it is too late.
I'm calling it "tyrananny."
Socialism has been “Creeping In” since the November 1932 election of Roosevelt. Nothing new here, now it is just overt and in your face ala Obama.
