Pelosi: "pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it"
Speaker of the House Website ^ | 3/9/2010 | Self

Posted on 03/09/2010 12:53:27 PM PST by Blood of Tyrants

In a remark at the 2010 Legislative Conference for National Association of Counties, Nancy Pelosi urged the passage of the health care bill saying: “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy. "

In other words, just pass it and THEN we'll open it up to see what's in it. Trust us!

This infuriates me to no end! They want to pass 2700 pages of laws and regulations yet they don't want to even read it, much less understand what is in it.

With the level of deafness in DC it will take a revolution to get their attention.

Is this true? ....

Buried in his massive amendment to the Senate version of
Obamacare is Reid’s anti-democratic poison pill designed to prevent any future Congress from repealing the central feature of this monstrous legislation!

Beginning on page 1,000 of the measure, Section 3403 reads in part: “it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider any bill, resolution, amendment or conference report that would repeal or otherwise change this subsection.”

In other words, if President Barack Obama signs this measure into law, no future Senate or House will be able to change a single word of Section 3403, regardless whether future Americans or their representatives in Congress wish otherwise!!

No, that section is unconstitutional. You cannot pass a law that cannot be repealed.

If you consider the source, Nancy's comment makes perfect logical sense to the illogical thinking left-wingers.

Look at who they gave us as president. Someone they knew nothing about (at least what they would admit to knowing, because it was not good), someone they touted as a man of great leadership capabilities,someone who would be bi-partisan, and someone they proclaimed would "unite" the country. But, that someone had no experience or background in anything relevant, and had not been successful at anything at all.

Obama was a "pig in a poke," and they bought and paid for him. And now Pelosi, et. al. want this Health care bill to be accepted the same way -- with no one reading it before it is passed. They are really living in a fog and believing that the American public is stupid.

The country already took a chance with Obama, getting a man in the White House who was an unknown entity, and look what has happened. Once burned...shame on you. Twice burned...shame on me. That is what thinking (the few there are of them) Dems are thinking now.

From Rachel Maddow's show last night, here's a jaw-dropper from the woman who brought you, "We have to pass the bill, so you can find out what's in it."

( Pelosi interview) - "Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance."

Change the wording to what she really meant: “Think of an economy where people could be worthless bums who are dependent on the government and always vote for DemocRats.”

She looks possessed, but I guess she would have to be to promote Obama “care” to the American public.

The democrat congressmen who ultimately vote for this health care bill don’t have the slightest concern for the majority of their constituents. All they care about is maintaining a good relationship with the democrat establishment so they can get a cushy, high-paying job at some think tank or college after they ultimately lose an election some day. The liberals are totally corrupt now, with no concern for their country and the future of our nation. It’s all about them and their miserable little careers. They will go down in history as trivial people with no courage, no intelligence, and no leadership ability.
