“Please sir,
can I have some more?”
Well, I don’t think this will come as any
big surprise but Speaker of the House
Frankenancy Pelosi has decided that the
healthcare plan is not dead as of yet.
Perhaps the title of this column should be
something along the lines of … “It lives, it
lives.” But I’ll save that for something in
the future. Meanwhile Mrs. Pelosi, who could
be mistaken for the crazy lady in ‘Play
Misty for Me’ has decided that we Americans
just need another dose of her wishes and all
will be right in the beltway. “If we just
keep feeding it to them…they’ll eventually
eat it” seems to be her new motto.
Even though she is losing support with
members of her own party, she seems hell
bent for leather to ram something down the
throats of the American taxpayers regardless
if we want it or not. Even though over 60%
of Americans are opposed to healthcare
reform the folks in the Pelosi bunkers are
determined to keep on shoving it in, day
after day after day. Speaker Nancy seems to
feel that she can draft a version which will
somehow escape the attention of the general
public.
Now, I realize that the current leaders of
the republic (Obama, Reid and Pelosi)
honestly think that those of us who vote are
too dumb to make up our own minds and cannot
tell what is good for us. That’s where they
come in. They feel uniquely qualified to
make those decisions for us. We should just
roll over and play dead while her office
explores a myriad of options to see which
one can be foisted off upon us without our
being aware.
The people of this country want jobs. I am
beginning to think those in control believe
that the word job is only a book in the old
testament and not connected to the 10% of
the citizens not gainfully employed.
Estimates run all the way up to 17% if you
factor in the number of people who have
stopped looking for employment. Whatever the
number is, it’s way too high and generating
new taxes while increasing the number of
government workers isn’t a text book example
of how to succeed in business.
Of course, Frankenancy has some serious
shuffling to do if she wants to get anything
passed in the dead of the night. There are
some major roadblocks to getting anything
out of this congress. Many of the incumbents
are now scurrying for the dark and trying to
get out of the light of ever increasing
scrutiny by the citizens. It will be
interesting to see how many Democrats ask
for support from Obama in the coming months.
So far their team is batting zero on having
any positive effect. Of course that doesn’t
mean they will give up trying. They seem to
be any and everywhere a camera or microphone
is placed. In my mind one of the most
dangerous places to be in America at this
time would be in between any of these people
and a news crew.
At least Senator Reid offered an opinion
that showed he wasn’t certain all of the
rules could be avoided. He made this
comment…. “We can’t go first,” Reid said. “I
don’t know how procedurally we can start
reconciliation.”
So, now it seems as if the House of Pelosi
wants to sneak a healthcare program to us
under the guise of anti-monopoly reform. In
other words, let’s wrap this stale and
rancid sandwich in a new wrapper and those
old dumb voters won’t pay any attention. In
fact they’ll be coming back for more.
Sorry, Nancy but even some things are just
too hard to swallow.
