The Landmark Legal Foundation announced today:

 (LEESBURG, VA, MARCH 17, 2010)Â…Mark R. Levin, president of Landmark Legal Foundation, today issued a warning to the leadership of the U.S. House of Representatives about the possible use of the so-called “deem and pass,” “self-executing,” or “Slaughter Rule” to enact H.R. 3590, the legislative version of President ObamaÂ’s healthcare proposal that has been previously approved by the Senate. If this tactic is employed, Landmark will immediately sue the President, Attorney General Eric Holder and other relevant cabinet members to prevent them from instituting this unconstitutional contrivance.

Great point! I hope he does it again, because it will make him look bad.  He's daily beating the shit out of everyone trying to gain votes for his demon ObamaCare that's so fucking important, but yet he could find the time to fill out his bracket on national tv.  Do it Barry!

I have a serious question about something that's been bugging me.  Is there some deep problem with Republicans that causes them to lose to Democrats on almost every issue?

Yes, I am aware that they have the media and Hollywood.  But I honestly wonder if it goes beyond that.

Republican "leaders" seem to honestly lack the courage to go up against Democrats.  The GOP sometimes has the majority, but always gets rolled anyway.  Are Republicans too moral to compete?  The Democrats, having forsaken belief in God, are free to do any evil thing to get their way.

This doesn't just apply to Congress either.  It applies to those of us out here on the ground as well.  I never see Republicans attacking Democrats, but Democrats attack Republicans out of the clear blue sky all the time.  When they do, Republicans complain about the unfairness of it, instead of expunging the Democrats who do evil things.

We need to start by realizing the need for serious self-defense, and defense of one another.  For instance, Republican women going to vote, or to a political rally, should be given armed protection whenever possible.  I don't doubt that SEIU and ACORN, and other similar groups, will target women, since they are cowards who prey on the weak.

We aren't going to win a political fight if we're too scared to get into a street fight.

it's a GOP problem dating back to post-Teddy Roosevelt, it's a double standard going back almost 100 years, we need to change this especially as Democrats get farther and farther to the left

Realistically if I were running right now, I'd platform on repeal of his muthafrackin' monstrosity. If an outright or even piecemeal repeal wouldn't pass, I'd state back up plan #2: it would be my mission to pass a bill whereupon we create a commission to look up everyone's voter registration info. If you voted Dem, you're stuck in this shitmess plan. Premium hikes, shitty care and all. If you voted wise, you'd be deemed exempt.

It's all about the Pussy.

Guys get suckered into the liberal shit the same way we get suckered into helping chicks move. With our cocks.

If the Republican women would all get just a bit more aggressive, we'd do better.  It doesn't help that most Hollywood fleshbots are liberal as fuck...but there is hope.

@29:  Yes, I know there's a double standard, but I'm not talking about the malfeasance of the Dems and media here.  I'm talking about us.  What are we willing to do to win? 

By we, I mean not we as in Mitch McConnell, but we as in YRM and Ken.  (I'm not exempting myself here).  It bugs the shit out of me when I hear some senile old fart calling the local radio talk show whining about how gutless the GOP leadership is, when you know the whining son of a bitch hasn't done jack shit for the past 30 years other than getting up to get  a beer.  As little as I respect the GOP leadership in Congress, they've done 100 times as much as the average person complaining.  WE need to fight back in a literal sense.

the diff. between last year and this year is that back then Obama was polling at 57%-60%, and people didn't feel like he was forgetting about the issues as the stimulus passed w/ the idea of helping grow jobs; but a year later he's polling 45%-48% and people are fed up w/ his constant ignorance of the Economy

you know what, you're right. I've been trying to go to Tea Parties and have turned a couple Obama voters into GOP supporters, but maybe we can do just a little bit more

@26: "Is there some deep problem with Republicans that causes them to lose to Democrats on almost every issue?"

Yes, and you identified a big part of it.  Cowardice is probably the fundamental characteristic of the Republican Party.  The reason? Ultimately, the rank-and-file of the party know that the folks leading it are pretty much cool with the Democrat agenda, they just don't want it enacted as fast as the Dems do.

That's why they never really oppose and never seriously attempt to repeal.  They have no desire to do so.

I wonder if the vote was put off till Sunday becuase Pelousy was skeered Tea Party types would show up en mass on Saturday.  I hope Sunday could be just as successful.

Beck aired clip after nauseating clip tonight of Ovomit pre- and post-election and of his evil minions.  No lie.  I had seen them all since the beginning of his messianic campaign and I still felt like I was going to upchuck.

@41: "WE need to fight back in a literal sense."

Fightin' means killin', son.  Therein lies the rub.

@63:  true enough, but I'm asking if it goes deeper than the assholes in Congress.  Why is it you never hear about Republicans busting into the dorm room of someone in the College Democrats and assaulting him, as a Democrat did to a College Republican a few years ago?  I'm not saying everybody should do that, but you'd think that if there were roughly equal numbers of GOP and Dems, and ten Dems assaulted random Republicans in five years, that you'd somewhere have at least nine Republicans assaulting random Democrats.  But it's zero.

We don't need to attack them, but we need to fight back.  If someone bites my finger off, he's going down.

George was smarter and could do math.

Is there some deep problem with Republicans that causes them to lose to Democrats on almost every issue?

Thomas Sowell has written about this and I agree with him. It's a different "world view". They think that anything that they do to gain their desirable and noble ends is justified. Lie, cheat, steal, lie more, manipulate, destroy other people's lives, and, in the extreme, murder (see Stalin, et al), are all fine actions as long as it gets them closer to their goal which is a state controlled utopia. They don't believe in the individual.

We think that we cannot commit crimes against natural law to achieve our goals because then the result would be illigitimate. We believe in the individual and his worth.

It is morality but we see morality differently.

Would a republican just go out and tell a completely fabricated lie to influence this vote? No

Would a democrat? Yes

You'll get used to it. The only one I watch regularly on tv is Beck, and then not every day.

I suggest substituting with less stressful programing like "Monster Quest" or any of the true life ghost stories where these morons end up scaring each other saying "Did you hear that? Did you hear it? What was that?" Highly entertaining and not stressful at all.

laceyunderalls, I'm depending on you to be my surrogate drinker today, OK?

So, basically, the MSM is trumpeting the yes votes making it sound like it's a go, in order to rattle the cage of the still undecideds and get them to vote yes as well, make them feel like they'll get cover fire?

The time for talk is over bitches.  It's time for bribes.   Obama is a Marxist, he cannot step back from the ledge.  Pelosi is a fucking idiot, she is going down in flames too.

There is no good ending for LIBTARDS on this.  We get fucked, we fuck back hard.

They are projecting an AURA of INVINCIBILITY.

That means they don't have the votes. When they have the votes they will vote, right then, not days later.

They aren't doing anything differently than making themselves sound bigger and scarier than they are: see peacock, bag pipes, puffer fish.

"...rattle the cage of the still undecideds and get them to vote yes as well, make them feel like they'll get cover fire? "

Or maybe an unintended consequence.  They'll get their votes, so I can be a NO.

@78: "We don't need to attack them, but we need to fight back.  If someone bites my finger off, he's going down."

You've already conceded the initiative to the enemy and limited yourself to playing defense.  Defensive warfare leads to defeat.

As I see it, we are very close to a crucial decision for the nation: What is more important - the process or the result?  If you value the process (read: democratic process) more than the result (read: liberty), then you must be prepared to accept the Glorious Socialist Utopia that awaits.  If you value the result more than the process, then you must be prepared to resort to much more stern measures.

Even assuming that the GOP is actually opposed to the Glorious Socialist Utopia (and that is far from a given IMHO), its members, and most of the Right in general, value the political process more than freedom and independence.  It's a fair call, I suppose, but perhaps not one I am wholly square with.

The Left?  Well, they value the result (the Glorious Socialist Utopia) far more than the process.  To them, the democratic process is simply a tool to be used.  Whenever it proves to be less-than-useful, it is immediately discarded.

I think the race hammer is their kryptonite.

Here lies America, dead because people were afraid of being called a name.

Today, Sen. Kent Conrad (D-ND)–chair of the Senate Budget Committee–didn’t provide them much peace of mind.

Conrad addressed a meeting of Senate Democrats to explain the reconciliation process to them. On his way out, I and several other reporters caught up with him. I asked whether the package being assembled by House and Senate Democrats will survive the Byrd rule, which requires a reconciliation bill to amend tax or entitlement law, without increasing the deficit.

“We haven’t finished the process of going through things that are Byrd-able,” Conrad said.

“Is it a close call on some of them?” I asked.

“Oh yeah,” Conrad said.

I've never called myself a Republican.  I'm Conservative.

If someone tells me I'm racist,  I smile and tell them.  Says who?

The Republicans need to get rid of leather faced alcoholic looking entrenched hacks like John Boehner and put in young good looking fresh intelligent people like Paul Ryan.  (who happens to be a friend).

Nullify other "laws" in retaliation?  And then what will eventually need to be done.  For the lucky few. 

I believe it's in the works in my state of SC now too, but what good would it ultimately do if the states say NO and then the feds just withhold Medicaid, etc. funds?

I think the race hammer is their kryptonite.

Heh, I lol'd when I got my paper this a.m. and there was a front page article titled "Obama's New Partner:  Al Sharpton", complete with a picture of said sleazeball, Al Sharpton.  (Article by Peter Wallsten, WSJ)

"'The president doesn't need to get out there and do what we should be doing,' Mr. Sharpton told [Tavis] Smiley during the testy exchange.  He argued that expecting Mr. Obama to become a black exponent of black views was 'just stupid,' because it would create fodder for conservatives looking to defeat legislation that could ultimately help blacks. 

...Mr. Sharpton is an unlikely White House partner, given his racially polarizing history and efforts by Mr. Obama's 2008 campaign team to steer clear of the civil rights leader....Mr. Sharpton has been to the White House five times since Mr. Obama took office, most recently this month as part of a small group meeting with economics advisor, Lawrence Summers.  Mr. Sharpton's radio program, which airs in 27 markets, has become a friendly platform for administration officials to address black listeners...

Now there are signs that Mr. Sharpton will play a role in this fall's midterm elections.  DNC Chairman, Timothy Kaine conferred with Mr. Sharpton this month on sending him to black churches and neighborhoods in politically important state to register and mobilize black voters."

Fauxmentum?  Everything about Obama is fake--from the styrofoam columns to his distancing himself from Al Sharpton during the presidential election.  He is cut from the same cloth as brother Al.  A racist, money grubbing, grievance mongering con man.
