How A Bad Idea Becomes A Bill And Moves Closer To Becoming A Law – You May Want To Sit Down And Put Away All The Throwable Objects
If you think our Republic took one below the belt round midnight Saturday when Pelosi got the Government takeover of health care passed, you may not want to see how she did that. This is the work of a political tyrant and bully. Congressmen and women were bribed. Oh yes, there were bribes, paybacks, backscratching, and vote packing shell games.
Deal makers pushed limits
Rep. Dennis Cardoza just couldn’t take yes for an answer.
Democratic leaders thought they knew how to lock in his vote. They’d add a last-minute provision authorizing up to $500 million to create medical centers that could benefit a college in Cardoza’s California district.
He’d vote for the health reform bill.
Read the rest at Politico, and for those of you out there harping on rules and ethics, you may want to look in the mirror, or where all those talking points come from. This make me sick and angry. This is not Democracy, nor how a Republic is supposed to operate. This is the behavior of a tyrant.
The Democrats were so desperate to pass their terrible bill that they had to play dirty, dishonest, and vicious to pass it.
That’s the story you should be running right now, how far Pelosi had to go to force, bribe, and coerce people to vote for her Health Care takeover.
Sidenote to morons who thought Stupak was good enough: You didn’t get it in writing like Cardoza. Congrats, you’re idiots. You could have killed the bill if you just voted present like Shaedag.
Seriously folks, read this Politico story that details some of the extreme measures pelosi took in order to pass this bill. This is not the honest work for the people, this is hoodwinking them. We should all be ashamed of what we have let our government become.
We know the lone GOP vote already has a visit from Transportation Committee Chair Oberstar arranged, I wonder what so-called moderate (really a Pelosi lapdog) Tim Walz got out of the deal.
That my friends, would be what inquiring minds should want to know.
For those that voted yes to the health care takeover, what were your motives?
was your vote bought by a half a billion earmark, or was your heart really into the idea of a Govenrment takeover of the Health care industry?
