I hope the average sucker taxpayer notices the switch to perfect binding and the increased size. I hope as they bring this atrocity into their home they think about our renegade out of control government. I hope as they spend hour after hour, working on their taxes, they get angrier and angrier at the criminals running congress.

And I pray that they will resolve to become politically active in this crucial year. As for doing so respectfully, I don’t think most of our representatives pay any attention to respectful letters and emails. I don’t think they respect respect. They just think we’re suckers. So take action. Do something – write, call, visit and demonstrate. I made three trips to Washington last year and I expect to make more this year.

A trip to your senator or representative’s home office when they are in town, is much better than a letter. Try to make an appointment to see them in person. Make them see your intensity. Make them look you in your eyes and lie to you in person rather than by a return form letter.

Demonstrate that you’re watching what they do and how they do it. And make sure they understand that you are ready to take action and encourage others to take action to kick their asses out of office if they continue to ignore us. Make 2010 a pivotal year for America.

I think its wonderful what Alan Grayson is doing to prove that the mentally challenged can serve in Congress.

Even after he stopped his phone call, the phone rang again, and Schumer was said to have stated, “It’s Harry Reid calling, I guess health care will have to wait until we land.” Yeah, right bitch, America’s health care depends your wisdom. It shouldn’t be surprising that Schumer would think nothing of abusing and potentially endangering his fellow passengers. After all the bill he’s working on will screw over the entire country.

Everyone on the plane should have picked the bastard up and thrown him out the door. Unfortunately, the voters in New York are unlikely to show him the electoral door.

This legislation must be resisted, disrupted and overturned. As the hidden details of this monstrosity are dragged into the light of day I believe that there will be enough public backlash to turn sufficient seats to overturn this 15 months from now.

These people are clueless as to the fury that they are unleashing.

The exclamation point on the pure evil of this is found in the comments by readers. Comment 5:

That is not an issue we must face as a society. You have no goddamn right to make those decisions for another human being. That is the individual’s decision. Read the full comment for a dramatic demonstration of ethical perversity.

These people think they are entitled to repeal freedom. They see no problem in making life and death decisions for other people. Statists see no problem in stealing livelihoods and the products of an individuals life. So why should they hesitate in stealing life itself?

Pure evil.

Republican members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committtee are pointing out that the stimulus bill was largely sold as an infrastructure and job creation bill. But the amount of the dollars targeted to infrastructure was only between 7 and 8 percent of the total bill. And as yet only one percent of that amount has gone out.

Even though it takes many years for highway projects to go through the planning process, at any one time there are many projects in the pipeline simply waiting for funding. But out of the 48 billion allocated to the Transportation Department, only 523 million has been disbursed.

It is inevitable that a few years from now, a study will show that nearly all of the “stimulus” was worthless. It will have been a total waste that will take a generation to pay back. If by some miracle, control of congress goes to adults, this bill should be reversed and used to lower the deficit. Any sign of fiscal responsibility will do more to restore confidence and help the economy than the combined pet projects of all the clowns in Congress.

They damn well better end up being charged with more than tresspassing. Once the damage, if any, is ascertained, they should be hit with every possible charge to the fullest extent of the law. These people are dangerous extremists out to destroy lives and end the freedom entrusted to successive generations by the leaders honored on Mt. Rushmore.

If she has some grand plan, we should know within a few months. My guess is that she isn’t that complicated. Many reports have cited her disgust at the wasteful expense both for herself and the State of Alaska, in defending against the frivolous ethics complaints brought by her hate-filled opposition. She has now dispensed with that.

As for the vile treatment of her family by everyone from bloggers to past their prime late night hosts, stay tuned. Palin can now respond as mama bear, not hamstrung by the governor’s seal behind her. Pretty simple.

Is there much to gain politically from completing the last year and a half of the term. Not really, considering the circumstances, and if you have no intention of running for re-election, why not give your chosen successor a leg up on the competition. She said she was passing the ball, and that is what she has done.

The meritless complaints against her are reported to have personally cost her as much as a half million dollars. She can now make that back with a handful of speeches. She’ll very quickly be a multi-millionaire while her detractors and complainants will still be worthless trolls. Palin can now make so much money her family will never need moose stew again.

And whatever support she loses by this move, she can recapture many times over by being free to campaign for candidates and issues wherever and whenever she likes. She may love Alaska, but I sense a new found appreciation for the lower 48. So is there some complicated grand plan? It looks more to me like some straight forward common sense.

Do not misunderestimate Sarah. How many governors can have their positives drop thirty points and still be in the SIXTIES? She was the top draw during the McCain campaign, and that is not about to change. The demand for Sarah appearances will continue to far outstrip the available supply of Palin hours.

Her surprise speech several days ago invoked MacArthur and spoke of advancing in a new direction. However I don’t think the end target has changed.

The new monthly payout would go to those whose income is no more than 150% of the poverty line. The provision appears on page 1193 of the bill which was raced through unread by nearly all of the so-called representatives voting on it. The current modus operandi of Polosi’s most irresponsible congress in history is to make sure the public has no opportunity to comment on proposed legislation.

Dupree also writes in his blog about the bill making provision for loss of funds to the Medicare and Social Security funds because of the job-killing nature of the bill. Dupree, unlike the lapdog official state media, is going through the bill line by line and reporting what he finds. His full blog is on the WSB site here.
