— Dave in Texas When all you need is something to sign, you can draw it up yourself.
This is akin to something I call in my profession "making it easier to get the 'yes'". If you want the CEO to sign off on an expense, don't send him an email and tell him "we need something". Fill out the forms and the justification and leave a place on it somewhere for his signature.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama is expected to publish his healthcare plan as early as Sunday or Monday, combining features of the two Democratic bills passed by the Senate and House of Representatives, congressional aides and healthcare advocates said on Friday.
How serious are they? In my moron opinion completely serious. They've ignored the majority opinion of the public on it for months, they've ignored their own party conflicts over the morass of the two bills. Why would they simply pick up the ball and go home?
Power grabs don't come cheap. Break a few eggs and all that. Whether they can pull it off remains to be seen, but I don't doubt for a moment that they will try.
Other news of the day, When Harry met Barry. Campaigning with Reid, Obama offers up $1.5 BN of uncommitted TARP funds to convince Nevada voters that he and Harry will save their mortgages.
I have done the arithmetic. I figured out that if I a) lost my job, and b) got a few lawyers to take $3000 bucks to renegotiate the terms of my mortgage, and c) still didn't get a job, I'd d) default on this sucker a little bit later than I was going to anyway.
Chicken hardest hit.

Here is the second part ... That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
I doubt slavery by overwhelming government debt is within those bounds.

The smartest thing for the Democrats right now is to let health care nationalization die. They've forced people who would normally not pay close attention to politics to do so and to realize Democrats are not who they want running things after all.

Let him do it. It's not written by him anyway, so it will be filled with all kinds of crap to appease his butt buddies. If he thinks folks were pissed off before, he hasn't seen anything, yet. And, if the Repubs don't call him out on it in front of the cameras, in a not so subtle way, well, I hope like hell there's a 2 million man/woman march on WA shortly after WITH actual torches & pichforks.

Yeh, see, I think that works better in an upward direction. You do all that you can and make it easier for the higher-up.
When the executive does a bunch of your type of work and hands it to you, saying "this is how you should have done it," it just doesn't come across the same way.

"The Copenhagen Accord[1] is the document that delegates at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (UNCCC) agreed to "take note of" at the final plenary session of the Conference on 18 December 2009 (COP-15). It is a draft COP decision and, when approved, is operational immediately.
The Accord, drafted by Brazil, China, India, South Africa, and the United States, is not legally binding and does not commit countries to agree to a binding successor to the Kyoto Protocol, whose present round ends in 2012.[2] The BBC immediately reported that the status and legal implications of the Copenhagen Accord were unclear.[3]"
IIRC, Captain B+ hopped back to DC proclaiming "peace in our time" when he go this, just before he changed the subject. Since then, the compliant media has done squat.

I always thought this was declared DOA too soon. He has two bills passed by a chamber of Congress to work with. It's not that hard.
The idea is to pass something, anything, declare victory, and when the world doesn't end by the midterm elections (because few if any of the provisions will be implemented by then), all the Ds have something to hang their hats on.

By all measures Obama is on track to be the worst president in American history. He only has himself to blame for his dismal record. AMERICA IS BROKE on his watch with:
Record national debt greater than the gross domestic product of the world
Government take over of the auto industry
Fannie Mae
Freddie Mac
Bailouts
Liberal policies
TARP
$700 Billion Federal Stimulus
$1.2 Trillion Federal Reserve Rescue
$6.4 Trillion Tax and Spend Budget to Redistribute Wealth
+10% Unemployment
Next Up: ObamaCare and it will destroy Health Care in America .

14 Looks to me Obama doesn't seem to get the whole "consent of the governed" part of the Declaration of Independence.
Here is the second part ... That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
I doubt slavery by overwhelming government debt is within those bounds.

The deal is secured by a pledge from Reid and the Senate's Democratic caucus that they will make "fixes" to the Senate bill after it becomes law with Obama's John Hancock.
Reid will provide to Pelosi a letter signed by 52 Democratic senators indicating they will pass the major changes, or "fixes," the House Democrats are demanding. Again, these fixes will be approved by the Senate only after Obama signs the Senate bill into law.

They found the missing file. http://tinyurl.com/yzq9bso
The Braintree Police Department, the Norfolk County Prosecutor and the Massachusetts State Police are trying to get their stories down as to why no charges were filed against Amy Bishop in the 1986 shooting death of her brother. Although the police file that had been missing for more than 20 years was found among the papers of a retired police investigator, now deceased, the case remains highly controversial.

This is a fight for the very heart of America. We can win this fight! With Senate Republicans now forcing Democrats to "ping-pong" the ObamaCare bill back and forth between the two Houses, we can capitalize on the divisions within the Democrat Party itself. If we can stop Reid and Pelosi from getting enough votes in either House -- that means THE BILL WOULD DIE!
This is outrageous and exactly what voters in Massachusetts voted against. BE ENCOURAGED -- remember that the majority of the American people are with us. Call your Reps!

Remember that awful bill with the myriad harmful provisions that you voted to pass last November? Do you remember me writing you to beg you not to pass it because of:
A.) Whatever was the main argument in the letter against the House Bill.
B.) The specific "unforeseen" consequence of foundational provision Y.a(b) that the writer tried to make Rep. X "foresee".
C.) The "personal story" and the exact ways in which this would prove to be harmful to one of Rep X's constituents?
You wrote me back and told me that you knew that the Bill that you had
helped to pass wasn't perfect but that it was a good start and that you were happy to send it on up to the Senate so that they could make improvements.
I saw what kind of "improvements" the Senate made and as hard as this is to believe I find it even more unacceptable than the version passed in the House.
Even some the particular issues and provisions that I used to be somewhat agnostic about, I now regard with deep suspicion after seeing the unprecedented arm-twisting and flat out bribery that had to take place to get the votes of a few pretty reliably Democrat Senators.
I mean, how bad does it have to be if it takes the Corn-husker Kickback to sway Nelson for Pete's sake? What did he and Harry Reid know, that we don't (and by we I mean you too Congress{being}) about how badly this bill will hurt the states?
In short, Representative X, I have not at all been happy with the main gist of either the House or Senate versions of this "reform" and can see serious problems with many of the specifics.
And I assure you that whatever feculent stew the White House means to concoct of "features" of both bills and the interests and imperatives important to those special interests who are powerful enough lobby the Administration directly will not become suddenly more palatable because it has been newly branded as "The President's Bill".
If you don't believe me, then how helpful to the President do you think that the ideas put out by congress and reviled by the public this past year, referred to in short-hand as "Obamacare", have been?
Don't be fooled into helping to shove this down the throats of your constituents by means of parliamentary trickery.
We will not thank you later.
It matters not whether you believe the contents of the bolus to be harmful or helpful to the patient in the long run.
Clearly, people can disagree on this point. You and I certainly do.
It is the action that you contemplate, the force feeding of citizens "for their own good", as if you were a prison nurse in Edwardian England acting on orders from the "Doctors" of your party.
It is a violence. A bad faith violation that will cause all of your patients, wards, prisoners, constituents to not only spew out the immediate concoction but to also, be suspicious of any potion you offer, and wish nothing more than not to ever see your face again, no matter if you outsource the force-feedings to a rotating shift of functionaries.
We will always remember you.

Was "debating" a libtard on healthcare today. The man said this, and I quote:
"Just raise the taxes on the top 3% who have been getting a free ride the past eight years. Bring the top rate back to Reagan levels. And raise the Social Security cap to $1,000,000. Health care paid for in a snap."
A snap. Raising the SS cap will pay for healthcare.
Don't libs usually accuse conservatives of giving simple answers to complex questions?

If the government is having problems coming up with any way to pay for this program, it mean we cannot afford it.
