NR is trying to putting a nice shine on the turd, but the reality is this: Freedom just got closer to extinction in America tonight.
They passed a horrible, horrible bill.
Think about the position the Democrats were in after the election. The Dems and Obama got their “clocks cleaned” and the Left (Obama, Pelosi & Co) could not afford to lick their wounds. They had to do something like this right after the election because they knew there was no way this would have passed if the Dems would have had time to think about how they got destroyed on Tuesday.
The Dems have declared war on the American people and hopefully the American people will now awaken out of their slumber. We will see.
We get to study it, and tar the Reps who voted for it with what they have done. We get to tar the Senate with this as they try again to come up with something they think they can pass and then they all have to vote on this crap storm again for real.
In that time, we have to impress the Bluest of Blue stater Representatives that they aren't safe. This isn't just the blue dogs in trouble but every Donkey in the corral.
Of course it'll pass the House because by tradition the House is the faster of the two deliberative bodies.
...and are awakening the sleeping conservatives who are the majority in this country even more! This travesty will affect ALL Americans from ALL walks of life—negatively. Oh, sure, it sounds great “FREE!!” health care! But it isn’t free—the devil will have his due.
And payback will NOT be what liberals and ignorant voters out there will be expecting when they go to open their paychecks and see huge chunks removed!
When this hits the wallets of America, you will hear a different tune beside the gloating one coming from the liberals right now—an angry response to what these people are doing to this country. And that won’t be pretty.
