What is happening to the constitution?
As I listen to the unbelievable drama that is unfolding before us, I can't help but ask myself that question. I have seen file footage of all of the prominent Democratic players in this play, each and everyone, decrying the use of "the nuclear option" to pass things through the senate, to avoid the dreaded "filibusterer". I even heard VP Biden say, "when we are in power, God forbid we should use this". Well..... what do you have to say now? I will offer a similar argument. When the Republicans won the congress back in the early 90's, they offered the olive branch to the Democrats, and gave them seats on prominent committees. Look what that got them. Well, one day, they will be in power again. And dare I say, they may use the SAME "cram-it-though" procedures to make sweeping social and political changes? Let's see; Tax Cuts, Across the board ban on abortions, banning of gay marriages, the list could be endless. Seriously though, this is the type of thuggery that the Founding Fathers feared. A unreceptive majority, that would rule at their pleasure, while ignoring the rule of the people. Maybe we could declare a "day of protest"? Where EVERY business, corporation, and small-business alike, close their doors for a day, and protests the madness and single focus that has so consumed the left.

Healthcare?????
As I sit and listen to all the rhetoric, I cannot help but wonder "what is in it for Obama?" I mean, after all, why would he commit political suicide for no apparent reason? Surely a mere "legacy" isn't enough of a motivation to make yourself look like an out-of-touch-with-the-masses idiot.. There has to be "SOMETHING" else going on. Like the "ostrich" Al Gore, apparently standing with his head shoved into the sand, while the "Religion of Global Warming" loses more and more members each day, and their sacred scrolls are written on used toilet paper, he continues to orate that global warming will be the destruction of our plant, as he continues to be HEAVILY invested in "carbon offsets", and electric car production. Oh there is SOMETHING in it for old Al... So, what is in it for Obama? If he is sincerely concerned with healthcare reform, WHY (and I seriously mean WHY), isn't Lawsuit reform on the table? I don't mean putting a cap on malpractice lawsuits. If a doctor is guilty of malpractice, he should PAY for the mutilation, or death of a person. What I advocate, is simply a "Loser-pays" approach. If in a medical lawsuit, it is REQUIRED that the losing party pay ALL lawyers fees, court cost, and income lost from the winner, then "Frivolous" lawsuits would immediately cease, and malpractice insurance would become virtually nothing... I just wish SOMEONE would address this issue... Simple and easy. And you can take credit for it...

Obama reaches out to GOP, tests its intentions.....
Are you KIDDING ME? First paragraph from the article in the NY Times....
WASHINGTON - Emboldened by the response to President Obama’s face-off with House Republicans last week, the White House is intensifying its push to engage Congressional Republicans in policy negotiations as a way to share the burden of governing and put more scrutiny on Republican initiatives.
So.... I guess the evil Republicans have been shutting the White House out of all their "secret" policy discussions, and committee meetings? As a punishment, he should MAKE them share the burden of governing... I would scrutinize their initiatives too.... Smaller government: Who are they kidding? Lower taxes: Who will pay for all the votes bought, (I mean Legislative Give-and-Take required to pass some bills?) Don't they realize if you lower taxes, it will stimulate the economy and..... ummmm... increase wages.... and then....OH CRAP!.. bring in more tax revenue.... well, they MUST have some evil motive behind that..
The article goes on the say that Obama is inviting GOP members to the WH to watch the Superbowl... How cool is THAT? And also to camp David to Socialize... WAIT A MINUTE! Who is paying for all this "arm-twisting"?? I think that would be You and I! Well, at least they will be writing legislation that will be passed in the... OH CRAP! The Democrats STILL control both houses.... Now WHY is he doing this again? Maybe to be able to BLAME some of the bad governing on the GOP in the fall (Just in time for mid-term elections?) I would say "thanks, but no thanks" Mr. President.

Global Warming??
Over 1,000 (that's ONE THOUSAND) weather related records; Snow fall, or Low temperatures, that have been BROKEN in the last month. Not just in the U.S. , but all around the world. It's as if God is saying, "I think it's time to PROVE to you that there is no such thing as "man-made-global-warming". I think God has a bigger sense of humor than ANYONE anticipated....
