Our premiums will go through the roof along with our income taxes and other fees and fines while we wait for another three years for nothing. We are not going to realize any improvement in anything from this illegal action. I say it is time to claim sovereignty as States and push back. Several Senators sold their mortal souls for some porridge, and got sweet deals for their states only. How is this legal? This is out and out bribery. <br />Besides that, it is all illegal and unconstitutional. We should not even be considering health care and cap and trade legislation. If any government entity says we can afford this, a red flag should immediately pop up in your brain. They have been bought and paid for too. This whole process has been an outrage from the beginning. Believe me, these mopes to whom we write and call are not listening. They have purposely blocked all their avenues of communication so they won't have to listen to those who they were elected to represent. The government has never done one thing successfully except raise and collect more taxes. <br /><br /><br />To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature,<br /><br />It is now official you are ALL corrupt morons: <br /><br />The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775 You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke. <br />Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke. <br />Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke. <br />War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more. <br />Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke. <br />Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke. <br />The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure. <br /><br />You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-58800782967563249852009-12-22T14:28:56.426-05:002009-12-22T14:28:56.426-05:00Beth, I wish we didn't have to have these mood...Beth, I wish we didn't have to have these moods(I'm not going to get into the HC Bill, I don't want to write a dissertation right now). I'm famous for moods this time of year. Stan can attest to that. Maybe we need them so we can keep perspective? Take some of that "fiyah" and burn the edges off the doldrums.

When it comes to this area of spending, they seem to think big government is magically efficient simply by dint of patriotic fervor. <br />I've been on both private insurance and now on Medicare. With one I was incessantly on the phone arguing to get claims paid; the other has been prompt and never given me the slightest problem. Guess which is which?Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17173711110500689117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-17047411989010791002009-12-21T22:17:50.831-05:002009-12-21T22:17:50.831-05:00I hate it when I get in moods like that.

When I think about all the pain and misery experienced by millions, I understand that my problems and frustrations don't amount to a hill of beans.<br /><br />I may have to use that soon. Trying to minimalize your discomfort because it may not seem as great as someone's else, only works for so long. How things are registered in regards to 'agony and discomfort' still is a factor for each individual to make. While the consequence isn't the same, it is difficult to grade THAT MOMENT, when something becomes too much for someone to handle.<br /><br />Anywho, 'clink', that's my nickle to go with my opinion!!Big Mark 243https://www.blogger.com/profile/10974573439218884164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-91483732603975968922009-12-21T14:25:29.966-05:002009-12-21T14:25:29.966-05:00I had an email from DB saying that he couldn't...I had an email from DB saying that he couldn't comment here, so here is his comment. And thank you, my friend:<br /><br />I say you sure show your doldrums in a feisty manner.<br /> <br />You are right to be outraged by this stupid fight over national health care, something that should have been part of this country years ago. "Let 'm die. If they're sick and poor they're just a drain on the economy. So let 'em die so we can preserve our 'way of life because it's perfect." <br /> <br />I'm also sick of those creeps who are praying and encouraging their congregations to pray for Obama's failure, just because he's black, or liberal or that he won the election. I wonder how those fools will handle the remorse if and when they ever wake up.<br /> <br />But remember Beth, 'Tis the season to be jolly.<br /> <br />DBBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149068921334726430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-60440441346825355932009-12-21T12:58:55.724-05:002009-12-21T12:58:55.724-05:00I dig the "balls" cartoon!

I confess as to not being the brightest crayon in the box when it comes to politices. I do believe something must be done, but I'm not sure if the plan offered is the best way to go.<br />And Beth, I am really missing your smile :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03242354503126154979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-30966578374009312612009-12-21T08:17:34.342-05:002009-12-21T08:17:34.342-05:00Righteous fiyah, if you ask me!Righteous fiyah, if you ask me!Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302478126147924237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736448434152217111.post-54484705277546814692009-12-21T03:17:51.130-05:002009-12-21T03:17:51.130-05:00I like Ken's reactions !!!
