Time To Get Out The Pitchforks!
In an email from my Rep:
Final Health Care Vote Passes 31-28
Friends,
Despite a close fought and valiant debate, ultimately Chairman Waxman was able to pull enough liberal Democrats and Blue Dogs together to pass his health care bill out of Committee. It is up to all of us to make our views known on this bill in the next month, before Congress returns to Washington in the Fall. For your reference, my official statement on the bill is here.
My best,
Marsha
HOME!
Whoo hoo! And tomorrow is going to be my own personal vegetable day! In other words, I’m going to do my very best immitation of a kumquat!
To say I’m pooped is an understatement!
WHAT THE………………????
“Nullification Acts”
ObamaCare Brings “Nullification Acts” from Sovereign States in America
by J.D. Longstreet
Just a snippet:
Back before the War for Southern Independence, Americans understood the power of the tenth amendment to the US Constitution. They understood the people of the states had the power to nullify actions of a US Congress which did not represent the people of the United States as they had been sworn to do… you know, sorta like the crowd we have in the US Congress today.
It was bound to happen. Americans are beginning to consider attacking the ObamaCare HealthCare Overhaul, sometimes referred to as: Nationalized Healthcare, Universal Healthcare, and Public Option Healthcare. (They’ll call it anything but what it is: Socialized Medicine!) through nullification acts of the states.
Yeah you heard correctly… nullification Now, that’s a word we haven’t heard tossed around much since the days just prior to the “Late Unpleasantness.”
See, this is what happens when the American people feel they have a government that is NOT REPRESENTING THEM! And frankly, not since the early to mid 1800’s have I read of a US government less inclined to listen to the people it purportedly represents than the current crowd we have taking up space in Washington DC.

I honestly don’t believe it’s just ObamaCare that is the reason that people are getting angrier, although, it does seem to be the catalyst. I’m afraid those in D.C. are even aware we’re out here, mad as hell, at their actions in the last 7 months. Even if they did know, they apparently don’t give a flying flip. That means, we need to take a good hard look at the original Declaration of Independence, and oddly enough, wouldn’t have to change too many words to have it apply to today’s environment!
