Well, the next time you run across one of those Democrats who clawed and climbed over each other to sign on to the Health Care Bill that nobody wanted… you know them, they’re the ones who refuse to talk about the Bill in their reelection campaigns because they know we’re more than a tad ticked off about it… ask him or her this question:
“Mr. or Mrs. Candidate, assuming that the Republicans take control of both houses of Congress in November, and assuming that they enact a Bill to cancel the Health Care Bill, and assuming that President Obama vetoes that Bill, how would you vote in a Congressional attempt to override the veto?” In other words, are they embarrassed enough about the damned Health Care Bill that they voted for to retract it? Or, are they only embarrassed enough to duck the issue during the reelection campaign?
Now let’s play some nice, soft music: This one’s called, “The Squirm Dance Rhumba.”
More and more Americans who were ambivalent about the Bill are now coming to the realization that things are not turning out exactly as Barry, Harry and Nancy were saying they would. In fact, Madame Pelosi, now that we’ve had a chance to read the Bill to find out what’s in it, most of us would rather suck on a lemon. How you had the audacity to do this dastardly deed to your fellow Americans is beyond me.
Candidates are well aware of the fact that the Bill is very, very, very unpopular and, although they thought we’d get over it, they’re discovering that their vote for the Bill may have sealed their political fate. While that fact is making them a tad uncomfortable, the plain and simple matter of fact that this was just the straw that broke the armadillo’s back. It was just one more affront to the American intellect, one more bad piece of legislation, one more put-down of a citizen’s right not to have government involved in his daily life and one more example of total government irresponsibility.
Now that we have our Tea Parties, it seems that no one in Washington wants to come for tea?
November 2nd is virtually just around the corner. Short of a declaration of war, the stage is set for the people to extract their pound of flesh. Many incumbents have already been knocked off in the primaries and many more are staring their own unemployment straight in the face. If unemployment kicks back up to 10.0% and it’s because so many incumbents got pink slips, we’ll all be delighted.
And, we’re not to blame.
