Destruction of a Nation!

It's been a while since I last blogged, but I just had to get this off my chest...

For those of you who follow politics like I do, you no doubt have been hearing about President Obama's plan for national healthcare overhaul. I think the current bill is toxic for SO MANY reasons, and most of America does as well...

Taking that into account, the President, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid are talking about doing something virtually unheard of and unconstitutional: passing legislation without even voting on it! That's right folks. The Slaughter Solution! Passing legislation that would account for 1/6th of our ENTIRE ECONOMY, against the will of the people. But let me tell you this gang....

Its all smoke and mirrors.

Pelosi doesn't (yet) have the votes to pass the senate bill, or she already would have held the vote.

Therefore, all this talk of inevitability is just a bluff. The President delaying his trip? Bluff. Pelosi's "we have the votes"? Bluff. They know the clock is ticking so they HAVE to (repeat HAVE to) create the impression of inevitability. Anything else at this point would be a concession of defeat.

In *that* light, the "Slaughter" shenanigan is just another bluff. At this point it seems clear to careful observers that the House simply CAN not pass the unamended Senate version. So this is a way of getting around that impression. Its a way of offering the slightest fig leaf to anyone on the fence, and to convince anyone who rightfully SHOULD be skeptical that the Dems don't have the votes here, that just maybe they do.

Also, frankly, there is no downside to Pelosi or Obama for "passing" this sh#$-sandwich illegal via the Slaughter trick. For them, its a no-lose situation.

If the law passes, and it survives a Supreme Court challenged, they win.
If the law passes, and it does NOT survive a Supreme Court challenge, they can blame it on the "Conservative" court. "We tried, but the damn partisan court struck this down". Kind of like blaming the Supreme Court for the Bush victory over Al Gore.
If the law doesn't pass, nobody can legitimately accuse them of not trying every last possible trick/procedure to get it done.

Folks, I wasn't lying when I told you back in November '08 that this guy was unqualified to be President of the United States. Thankfully, more and more Americans are seeing this every day. Sure George Bush wasnt perfect, especially with his spending. But this Obama character is spending us into bankruptcy. And something tells me this is exactly what he wants...

I just hope and pray the damage already done can be fixed before we sink into another European malaise.
