While I have been busy with freelance projects and local stuff going on in Concord, Politizine has been a bit slow. Sorry about that. I'll get back to it after the holidays (Happy Christmas everyone, BTW).
But, I did want to note two pretty huge things, especially while the health care debate is going on.
First, there is this overview of why the plan should be rejected: ["10 Reasons to Kill the Senate Bill"].
So many reasons, so little time ...
And then this, from Political Wire this morning: ["Obama Got What He Wanted"].
In other words, all of you who voted for this clown and voted for these spineless Democrats and are now upset, have only yourselves to blame. The lesser of two evils is still evil. When are you all going to realize this? What good are Democrats if they are just going to cave to the worst, craven interests controlling D.C.? It's disgraceful. It really is.

Unfortunatly, our President didn't get what he wanted. He promised he wouldn't sign a bill without a public option, and promised he wouldn't sign a bill with mandated insurance (of course, that depends which audience he was talking to during his campaign). He got the only thing that he could, including a bill cobble together with bribes, lies, and back room deals. He promised transparancy and openness, we got what we typically of power hungry politicians. We got the bill and had more of our freedom, privacy, and property taken away. Did I mention, they voted for this on a weekend near midnight when no one was paying attention.
Sorry, I forgot to add, when the far left that has demanded a public option finds out that they will be required by law to purchase insurance from those evil greedy insurance companies that just want to collect money while watching people die after paying their premiums for decades, there will be a revolt. It's going to be fun to watch of the next decade while this thing ramps up, that is if they can make the conference committee patch this into everyone will vote for. I'm not sure all the bribes to various senators will stick, and not sure if they'll vote for it if they don't get their bribes. Nov 2010 is going to be an interesting time.......
