Listening to the debate on the floor today, it was clear that Democrats considered it a moral and ideological obligation to pass this billconsequences be damned. The leadership is congratulating itself nowPelosi is already the greatest speaker of all time apparentlybut there's a tough rough ahead in the Senate. Pelosi could lose 39 votes. Reid can't lose any. Passage in the House definitely creates more pressure on Reid to get it done, but the slender margindespite the size of the Democratic majority in the House and all the arm-twisting and deal-making (what did Cao get?)has to make Senate moderates even more nervous. There's a long string yet to be played out here, and it's still likely to stretch into next year, by which time Pelosis historic accomplishment of Nov. 7 may look foolish.
Here is the email I just sent my “rep” Braley
For your reading enjoyment
Dear Sir,
With your vote for the wholly UNCONSTITUTIONAL death care bill last night (and why so late, are you all cowards in the house of horrors?), you have effectively declared war on the people of the United States. You SWORE an oath to uphold that sacred document, and yet, you use it as toilet paper at every turn.
I live and work in this city, the one that you puport to represent, and I can assure you that your constituents are ANGRY, sir. You have desecrated your oath to uphold the US Constitution, and have declared war on the good people of this great nation. I assure you, sir, that we are doing everything in our power to send YOU to the unemployment line next November. This tyranny will not stand, sir. You have declared war upon the citizens of the United States. Notice has been served.
Thank you for your humor, but I’m not going there. No one has to spell it out that this whole Obama presidency has reeked with corruption from the start.
Thanks!
I agree that it has...yet you still have yet to tell what charges you would bring for the impeachment you advocate.
RE :”I couldnt believe my eyes. My stomach just completely twisted when I saw the number reach 218.”
Yep, I was rooting for more no’s and a bit disappointed at that same point. But that is just the first step on the long ladder for them, and that anti-abortion amendment the choicers (pro-abort) had to swallow was incredible. I cant imagine they will let that in the final bill.
Nancy Pelosi.
Who I usually write off as a liar.
Don’t count your votes before a bunch of Liberal judges do....
