The Mother Of All Health Care Bills
by Big Dog on Oct 20, 2009 at 04:45 Political
The Senate Finance Committee filed its health care bill today and it is designated as S. 1796. The monstrosity of a bill contains 1,502 pages meaning it has about 500 more than any previous version that has been debated.
The members of Congress have shown they are unable to read bills that are this big. They admitted that they did not read the stimulus bill that weighed in around 1,200 pages and they did not read the thousand plus page cap and trade bill. Given their admission that they cannot read large bills one would think that they would make smaller bills.
But if they did that the smoke and mirrors would be gone. They would have something to read and the public would be able to digest the information more easily. However, the public’s interests are not an issue as the health care bill is a dream of Democrats intent on taking control of every aspect of our lives.
The bill has not yet been added to the web and it is unlikely that it will be posted with enough time for people to read it and express their opinions to their elected officials.
This is all by design. They are making these things more and more difficult so they can blow smoke up the collective rear ends of all Americans. These criminals are bound and determined to push this on us regardless of what we think. Fortunately, some Democrats are expressing concern over some of the contents of this thing.
The people in Congress have a very short time left. The next election is just about a year away and I see a bloodbath taking place. People are fed up with the careless manner with which this bunch is operating and have had quite enough. Even Nancy Pelosi is polling very low in her home state.
Hold their feet to the fire on this. We can win if we keep up the pressure but they must understand the consequences of their actions.
Vote them out. That is the only way short of an armed revolution to get anything accomplished.

It is the duty of every good citizen to oppose unjust laws, oppressive laws, and laws that serve no one well except the out of touch politicians and their venal grasping of money and power.
Just heard- when the two Senate Bills are merged, it will be around 2,000 pages- and none of it will help people, that is for sure.
