"Now we have to focus how to undo this mess after Nov."...

Beg to differ...we now have to focus on how to undo this mess starting right da*n now!! (pardon my language - I'm just that disgusted!)

It can, will, and must be done - we'll see how the actual vote goes later, but if it goes as expected, we just move on to "part two"...despite all, I really don't feel that this will ever become the "law of the land", in reality...so let Pelosi et. al. enjoy their moment before all hell breaks loose in the courts (hehe!)...

BREAKING- WHITEHOUSE and STUPAK have reached a deal- EO will be signed ensuring no fed funds will be used...

This ain't about the promise of an EO ensuring no federal funds will be used. It's about the EO that will be signed mandating that private insurers cover abortion. Wake up, Stupak!

I have many conservative friends - though some are libs. I actually have a disclaimer on my Political Photo Album. I post what I want and if someone doesn’t like it too bad. They can ignore what I say and move on or defriend me. No skin off my nose.

The way I read it - that is just one way the demos will be able to weasel out of it without actually rescinding it.

Weezy is really getting on my nerves the way she is slobbering all over the Democratic members of the Rules Committee.

Bingo - now Pingee is just repeating her speech from yesterday. Same old sob story we heard yesterday. They can’t even gin up new material for this proceeding. Lazy bums.

BINGO!!!!

The Constitution is specific - 2/3 of the States can introduce an Amendment which the House/Senate must accept as written and send it to the States for ratification of which 3/4 much approve.

With polling showing over 80% of people in the US against this bill, we can easily do that, but we must act quickly.

Do you have another party in mind besides the Republicans?They are not perfect and we have their number. We have been sending money only to conservative candidates. If you were looking for the perfect party let me know when you find it.

what are you talking aobut? There’s no vote yet. It’s still 4 hours away.

Remember, it didn't go to debate and vote until they knew they had the votes. Stupak did his cover-his-rhetoric deal with Obama for an imaginary EO and they went to the final debate on the Rule underwhich the vote will soon be taken.

They have Stupid-pak and his shills -- they have more than enough with five or ten to spare.

It is nothing but theater now. The poster was saying he/she was glad the vote was decided, retribution can now begin. And so it shall. The next four hours will just raise your blood pressure as it will for all of us.

The debates from now on are a charade for continued employment in the House by both sides -- the economy is being federalized and we are locked into economic failure as solidly as FDR placed us for a decade and a half.

I retire in a couple of years. I paid more in taxes than half of our taxpayers declare in income. They will no longer have that as I pass from the employed ranks.

It is now our happy duty to tell our neighbors, I told you so -- to tell our youngsters, didn't I warn you -- and to hold forth Redeeming the Time to talk to all our Countrymen about what Liberty was founded upon.

The battle is over -- the peaceful rebellion loyal to our Constitution is begun.

Can you see CA EVER voting in a total conservative in Pelosi’s place? Riiight. There are NO conservative districts in San Francisco. To oust San Fran Nan will take a so-called RINO. We absolutely must know our limits realistically.
