Dems Press On With Radical Agenda, Despite Voters' Objections
Posted by: Meredith Jessup at 3:53 PM
As hundreds (maybe thousands) of protestors gathered at the Capitol today to protest government-run health care options being floated around Congress, Democrats pressed onward in pursuing their agenda:

Reuters is reporting that a Senate committee led by Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) approved a "climate change" measure over the objections of Republicans.  In fact, the GOP Senators boycotted the vote en masse in protest.  The measure in question would "require U.S. industry to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases 20 percent by 2020, from 2005 levels."
"I think this is a great signal for Copenhagen that there's a will to do what it takes to advance this issue," committee Chairman Barbara Boxer told reporters after her panel voted.
Bloomberg is reporting that despite a perceived repudiation from voters in Tuesday's elections, the House Democratic leadership is proceeding with plans to vote as early as tomorrow on the massive $1 trillion government health care takeover.  To ensure support, President Obama himself plans to visit Capitol Hill tomorrow.  Forget the Dems having lost major elections on Tuesday.  Pelosi rejects the idea that the party has lost momentum: “From my perspective, we won,” she said.

And if all this weren't enough, the Associated Press is reporting that Democrat Senators voted today to BLOCK a proposal submitted by Louisiana Senator David Vitter to include a simple question in the upcoming 2010 U.S. Census.  The question?  "Are you a U.S. citizen?"  (Apparently Dems don't think we should ask...)

That's funny.  I thought the purpose of the Census was to figure out how many citizens we have living here.  It's also used to proportion congressional districts according to population.  Hm... I wonder who would benefit from the Census counting a disproportionate number of illegal aliens undocumented citizens...?

Hey Jakk
......And conservatives ran with their tail between their legs in upstate NY. Did you really think wackos like Beck and Palin were going to win people over with their hate-filled nonesense?

Hoffman didn't know his bottom hole from a hole in the wall -- people aren't that stupid


Yes they are that stupid--they elected Obama didn'they?

It Would Appear Per Mammme....
.....Boxer's comment as stated in the body of this thread and reiterated as follows: "I think this is a great signal for Copenhagen that there's a will to do what it takes to advance this issue," committee Chairman Barbara Boxer told reporters after her panel voted."...that Mammmmme Boxer is REAL ANXIOUS for her Master, BO, to sign away the sovereignity of the USA.

I do hope Mammmme Boxer's constituency are solid Americans who care deeply as to the independence and well being of our Country. If so, I hope they resent her arrogance and proceed to vote her anti-American butt out of office ASAP.

heres a radical suggestion
we urgently need to deport all muslims. they are at war with us, and we dam well better get to war with them. how many more must be brutally murdered by "peaceful muslims" before we are somehow able to figure it out?

Arch says

I agree. These muslims are a threat to our sovereignty. If we do not reject them from our nation, we will continue to suffer insanity and destruction. They will never fit into our Christian nation as their false religion dictates that they convert us or kill us.
They are true sick fanatics and primitive classless cavemen. Roy Rogers educated me well on their system of depravity!

Well then...
If you really think national voters will be unhappy with what the Congress and the President are doing, you should be ecstatic to see them press on so we poor fools who kicked Republicans out of office in 2006 and 2008 will bemoan the error of our ways and come crawling back to you begging to be saved by your fantasy real Republican president on her white horse.

Note to Congress
CarbonDioxide is NOT dirt.

You aren't cleaning anything up.
Jakk writes: Thursday, November, 05, 2009 5:56 PM
stop being such a bitter bee-yatch
"Major elections?" Losing NJ -- problem. But prop. taxes are high, Corzine is a Wall Street guy whom no one trusts anymore and the state generally has financial issue. Not good for an incumbant.

VA -- to be expected.

And conservatives ran with their tail between their legs in upstate NY. Did you really think wackos like Beck and Palin were going to win people over with their hate-filled nonesense?

“From my perspective, we won,” she said.
