It's official, we're Socialists!

[miniman82]

Hope you Progressives had fun destroying the U.S. Constitution, and turning the last bastion of Freedom that used to be America into a European-style whorehouse for Governmental control. Your time will come- I welcome the Ides of November with open arms.

[Phil Dally]

RIGHT ON NICK!!!

Now that they got away with this on H/C...wait till you see what's next.

All the policy crap that has been talked about will be passed with a simple majority.

Immigration

Cap & Tax

Gun Control

Welfare

etc...etc...etc!!!

And it will all be on the table before November.

The only good news yesterday was the Attorney General of Texas announced as many as 40 states are together on a lawsuit to block H/C.

Never in the history of our great nation has the government told you what product have to buy.

I suppose those BWL wont get it until they are told they have to buy GM.

H/C could be tied up in the courts for a vairy long time.

p.s. The executive order signed yesterday isn't worth the paper it's printed on!!!!

Just before the vote, Princess Pelosi said, "We'll be joining those who established Social Security, Medicare and now tonight health care for all."

More prophetic words were never spoken. Two bankrupt and broken entitlements -- and now a third is now being added!

[KASEY VANDENBERG]

I AGREE WITH all of you, these dam guy's in washington are killing us, and the country as a whole.

I hope to hell we get every son of a bitch out of there in Nov.'

I'll be voting, that's for sure...............................................................

Craig T. Nelson has a solution, but the threat of tax evasion charges doesn't sound like a very good plan to me.



No, I think voting all the corrupt a$$holes out of office will be enough. What we need is a Conservative revolution, and a return to our basic principles to get us on the right track. At this point we've come so far from where we should be, a revolution is the only way to get back to where we were. We're losing more and more individual liberties day by day, how long will it be before the rest of the country comes out of it's slumber? I mean my God, the IRS NOW CONTROLS YOUR HEALTH CARE!!!!!!!!!

[Scott H]

I don't even know what to say anymore. I am ... at what our leaders are doing to our country.

[Phil Dally]

We must not relax...it's our turn to double down!!!

They broke all the rules and payback is a bitch.

Well Said.

Comrades! Comrades!

It isn't all that bad... look how well the system worked in the Soviet Union.

Seriously though... you know the funny thing about this is that the politicians from the McCarthy era... were actually right. They may have gone about it wrong but at the root of it they were right. Slowly but surely this country has been permeated by socialistic and communistic precepts. If you don't believe it just take a look at our universities. Living here in Denver... CU springs immediately to mind.

It's comforting to know that so many of my Corvair brethren are free thinkers!

Yep, we left the Communists and other Left Wingnuts back on 'that other forum'.
Some people can't take a hint.

[Gregory_Miller]

I'm not a left wingnut...(really) But, haven't we been "socialists" since Social Security and Medicare became law? Those are social programs IIRC.. The biggest problem is we have bums on both sides of the aisle, more interested in padding their own pockets and getting re-elected than doing what's best for our country.

[miniman82]

If I could get out of paying into Social Insecurity, I would. I'm positive I'll never see that money again, and I'm sure I can put it to better use than the Progressives... Just think: every month that's $250 I could be putting into the stock market, or a college fund, or my bank account, or hey here's a funny idea- I COULD SPEND IT BECAUSE I DAMN WELL EARNED IT!!!! But no, it's not mine. The current administration has no concept of 'mine' and neither does any other Progressive (read: Marxist). They would rather take what I have, and give it to other people who (for the most part) don't deserve a fair dime.

[flashpoint]

vote out ALL incombants......................ALL ...............time to send a message!

Never in the history of our great nation has the government told you what product have to buy.

I don't know about where you all live, but in my state, you are required by the Government to purchase auto insurance. You're also required to purchase a helmet if you want the privilege of riding a motor cycle. You're required to buy a hunting licence, fishing licence, etc. You're ordered to pay taxes for services, *weather you want or need them or not*. This nation is no stranger to ordering you to buy or pay for something you don't want.

I'm not defending this bill, mind you. Just making a point about how we've become so used to complying with being told what to do here, that we take it for granted now. It's exactly the mindset and apathy that they are hoping we'll fall into later.

We've been more and more socialist since this nation was built. All one has to do is look at California to see how things end up when you go *too* liberal. We're broke, powerless to fix it, and pretty much hoplessly screwed now. This is what happens when the liberals get full reign.

While that is a big win for the conservatives to point to this state and say "see? your liberal ways will screw us all" Remeber there's an equal and opposite side of that coin. There's such a thing as *too* conservative. Dry counties? Porn and ownership of sex toys outright banned? Radical ethnic hate, police stopping people who "look like they might be an illegal" and demanding papers?
That's a bit too extreme the other way for me at least. (hey, NO ONE is taking my porn. LOL)

So all I'm saying is that there needs to be a middle ground. a common sense answer to this type of situation. Why we cannot find one these days, in this age of connection with SO many people, boggles my mind.

In Oct 08 when it became obvious what was happening I said, "Too much of any one thing is a bad idea."

On Nov 2nd we will get our system of "Checks and Balances" back...it cant come soon enough.

The damage done in the two years of radical left-wing agenda will take at least generation to correct.

This Congress has been passing "progressive" laws everyday that we don't hear about...vairy scary!!



Anybody think it's a coincidence we have a major oil spill less than a month after drilling was opened up?
