Health Care Bill has passed


Is anyone else thinking what I am thinking?

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7mRSI8yWwg"]YouTube- Paying income tax in America is Voluntary[/ame]
 
So all it took was bribery, extortion, contorting of constitutional mandate, and possibly other high crimes and misdemeanors. Two things I hope for:
1) Conservative victory in 2010, completely gut and defund all legislation regarding this turd
and
2) Hold every single yea voter responsible criminally to the fullest extent of the law, including but not limited to fines, removal from office, and imprisonment.
 
Before the reconciliation bill can be voted on, there is a now a vote on sending the passed bill back to committee, and letting it die there, which is a last gasp attempt by the Republican leadership to kill it. This is a 15 minute vote. After this vote is done, providing the nays have it, then the reconciliation bill will be voted on.
 

Well, this vote does settle one thing - Whether or not the Great Recession will end up being a double dipper. Looks that way now.
 
next!!!!!!!!!:mrgreen:
 
I'm waiting for proponents to defend the contents of this bill.

Someone please tell me how this will make medical services cheaper, more accessible and not add to the federal deficit.
 
Isn't there a rule against that?

The mods have already dealt with that by posting a warning. Please, let's get back to topic, where the conversation should be.
 
It is truly inspiring to finally see our Representatives stand up for the people that put them in office!
 

With all due respect, and to each his own, I have to disagree with your comments. There is no solid proof that a majority of American's were against this bill. Just because you yell the loudest, doesn't mean you yell for the majority. There is no proof it will put a nail in the coffin of the USA. Again no proof it will devastate our economy and place persons out of work. And, it is not un-Constitutional.
 
Motion to send the bill back to committee and kill it has been defeated. The reconciliation bill vote will be in a few minutes.

I'll be expecting crickets on that one, since there are no ways the bill can accomplish that. BTW, I hope none of the supporters have money in the stock market, I don't want to hear all of their whining and complaining when it recedes.

I know it, I just want to eviscerate the liberal version of "dittoheads."

Most supporters don't even know whats in the bill.
 
It is so cute to see so many supporters of the Teabag Party say they are going to revolt. I picture them getting their tights and muskets on their 300 pound bodies now. Please don't die from your obesity? The bill isn't fully in effect yet, wait until it is passed. THEN! You can all walk to your local courthouse and see how many people give a **** about what you have to say. Better yet, have a rally.
 
Did somebody say "TAX REVOLT"??

Those that refuse to learn the lesson of history, are doomed to repeat it.
We already had a war between the states. The revolters lost.
 
Here is a little tid bit for those that think they are now going to be covered.....

That sounds like about two to three personal attacks right there. Hope you don't have money in the stock market, or mutual funds, or anything indexed.
 

Every poll taken over the past 2 months has the majority being opposed to this bill. Doesn't matter which side you are on in this issue, this is not what the majority of Americans want. These members of Congress are committing political suicide. And it is un-Constitutional, but we'll let the courts work that out.
 

Please, I don't want this thread ending up in the Basement, due to personal infighting. Help me out here, OK?
