The Death Of Liberty


Senator Ben Nelson(D) Nebraska announced his "yea" vote for Obama health care this morning; a plan no one has seen. The Washington Post stated that "abortion language" in the bill was changed so that Nelson would agree. In addition, the soon to be voted out of office senator was promised certain favors for his vote. I'm assuming the 'favors' would be Offutt AFB remains open.
Kent Conrad(D) North Dakota, another about to be voted out of office senator signaled his support. The question now is, will there be enough losers from the Loser Party in the '10 elections to swing the majority back to the the Republicans? According to recent polling these John McCain/Lindsey Graham semi-Losers are in dangered of being swallowed up by the Taxed Enough Already(TEA) Party. There are a whole lot of Dems who fell on the sword for Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and our Communist-in-Chief. Don't worry about those people who will be sent packing. They have a heck of a pension plan AND they set it up so they can opt out of European style medical care. As for the people, senior citizens will see a $500 billion reduction in Medicare benefits, premiums for everyone will skyrocket. We will begin being taxed immediately after signing but there are no benefits for four years. In addition, the bill adds trillions to an already unsustainable debt. Over 115 bureaucratic offices will be created adding thousands upon thousands of positions for those who contribute absolutely nothing to economic growth. One sixth of the American economy will be turned over to 535 people who have made a shambles of everything Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, established over 200 years ago.
If this scenario pans out, and I have no reason to believe otherwise, it is a sad day to be an American.
