We’ve sure come a long way from Ronald Reagan’s “It’s morning in America,” to Obama,Reid & Pelosi, Inc... It’s MOURNING in America!!!

” The national democraphics with the opiate of Obamacare will have shifted inalterably against the Republicans with the institution of the leviathan Welfare State centered upon propping up and buying off the entitled addicted on the public teat, upon the backs of the producer class.”

Remember the elections just last month. Republicans won overwhelmingly because people are horrified at how the Democrats have been behaving, drunk with power. People will not take this lying down, and the entitlement class will not be so easy to motivate.

I think a couple of pointed, in your face emails to John McCain might help the effort.

God, have mercy on our souls, we ask for direction for we have failed the unborn, your creation, your likeness, forgive us father, for we have failed you, once again. Please God, let the Lamb open the seven seals and cleanse the world of the prince and his worshipers, so help us God.

Trust me, I’ve said plenty of curse WORDS in the last hour or so, especially. I was talking about a good old fashioned “pox upon their houses” type speech...

So if the health care conference report is not attached to a budget bill, then cloture will require 60 votes when it returns to the Senate?

Is that your understanding?

I’m just wondering if America realizes what this means, not just regarding healthcare?

China issued a warning just yesterday that they are not going to be able to continue buying our debt. We just enacted a TRILLION dollar bill that can only be bought by selling more debt.

I hope America understands (doubtfully) they are celebrating the bankruptcy of the United States of America.

Obama’s statement of if this doesn’t pass, we will go bankrupt is the typical “Whatever Obama says, know the exact and equal opposite is true”.

They sounded like whimpering dogs. Even worse. I never saw a pack critter whimper so low

Well, at least the hot dogs and the country music at the Tea Parties were a nice touch this year. Everyone had a such a grand, nice, fun little ol' time at those get togethers. My we really scared the bejesus out of Capitol Hill with those myriad of gatherings, and 1 million people on the Mall later, didn't we? /sarc

Maybe the Lord will arrange some immediate healthcare experiences for those who voted for this.

Without any painkillers.

Then stop posting.

If you’re going to roll over and play dead, I don’t need to hear from you.

Until this thing is in the Rose Garden with a gloating Obama holding a pen, we still have a war to fight.

And even after that, we have to fight. Move for our candidates to vow to gut this thing little by little or all at once.

Get over the defeatism. It doesn’t do anything but distract.

We are talking about our liberty and our republic. This is not something we can concede. Ever.

We’re going to lose battles like we did tonight but we cannot EVER surrender. The left never gives up. Are we? Are you going to just lie down and play dead? Bury your heads in the sand and mourn for our republic?

If so...iif you don’t have the guts to go out there and fight for our nation, our children and our liberty, stop posting and let the rest of us do the work.

For those of us who realize that we cannot ever give in regardless of the battles won and lost...

CALL YOUR REPUBLICAN SENATOR AND TELL THEM TO OBJECT TO THE APPOINTMENT OF THE CONFEREES

What if we don’t have a republican senator? (can’t wait til Arlen Specter is voted OUT!!!) Only four more months...

Some of us are NOT saying we are laying down the fight.

Some of us are saying THE TACTICS TO DATE DID NOT WORK.

Thanks all for being here together as we mourn the passing of this legislation. I’m going to sign off for now — tomorrow (later today) is another day, God willing! This is FAR from over — we may have lost this battle but we will NOT lose the war!

At 1AM on the longest, darkest night of the year, the demons do their dirtiest work. I just don’t think that this is merely a coincidence.

St. Michael the Archangel, protect us in the time of battle,
Safeguard us against the wickedness and the snares of the Devil. Rebuke him we humbly pray, and by the Power of God, cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl the world seeking the dominion of souls.
