Subversion
gryffn

Everything comes down from Obama at the top. The dotted lines are the way it's supposed to work — like going through Congress. What a novel idea!

 

chart

CAP & TRADE (Energy Taxes)
The dotted line goes to the House. It goes to the House. It fails in the Senate.
Obama's Subversion: Cap and trade, he goes around the House and Senate and he goes down to the EPA.
No voting. No representation of the People.

INTERNET REGULATION (Big Brother Spying)
Internet regulation was supposed to go to the House and Senate. It fails in both.
Obama's Subversion: Internet regulation, he goes past where it fails in the House and Senate, goes to the FCC.
No voting. No representation of the People.

UNIONS
Union card check, it passes in the House, fails in the Senate. Debt commission, fails in the Senate, never gets to the House.
Obama's Subversion: he gets Craig Becker as nominee. It still fails in the Senate and so he gives it possibly a recess appointment. The Hell with the Senate!
No voting. No representation of the People.

DEBT
Debt commission, it fails in the Senate.
Obama's Subversion: He issues an executive order.
No voting. No representation of the People.

HEALTHCARE
Healthcare, the Senator Brown victory should have sent a message but then it went to the House and the Senate. We don't know exactly what's going to happen.
Obama's Subversion:  reconciliation and this latest "let's pass it without voting" a la Queen Nancy. He has subverted the process, the legitimate process every step of the way. And nobody seems to have a problem with this.

Do You?

The Old Days – When One Voted
gryffn

From Maine to Hawaii, Americans send people to Washington, D.C., to be their representatives. Let me repeat that – to be their representatives.

That means casting votes that reflect the will of the people who elected them to do the job.

In that spirit of Hope and Change, that's all going out the window.

Vote? What's that?

Obama has spent his entire first year getting around the congress and that pesky voting thing. If he can't push it through legitimately, he does a go-around and gets his Will implemented through another agency – like the FCC, the EPA.

But now, the most daring of tyranny and despotism — Queen Nancy will be pushing that Healthcare bill through – without a single vote!

Never mind the unconstitutionality of the whole thing. She does not give a crap about you — or Social Security recipients. That's going to be cut drastically to fund this. Certainly

But Pelosi and Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y. are hard at work, plotting to pass the Senate's health care bill without forcing rank-and-file Democrats to go on record by voting to support it.

Here's how the process would work:

Under a tactic known as a "self-executing rule," the House could simultaneously approve the Senate bill while voting on a package of changes to it. This would "deem" the Senate bill to be passed, without having any members to vote for it directly.

That violates Article 1, Section 7 of the U.S. Constitution, which states that a bill becomes law when it "shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate" and the president signs it.

Does anyone care?

Republicans Battle Pelosi Tricks

Pelosi

There she goes again. And what a hypocrite to stand in front of the American flag.

Now ding-a-ling Speaker Nancy Pelosi is hell-bent on using a legislative trick to pass the health care bill (that the majority does not want) without really voting for the health care bill.

Huh? In spite of the constitution stating that all laws must be voted on, she plans to go around that little technicality.

Democratic leaders are considering the option because many House Democrats don't want to cast a vote in favor of the Senate bill, which they oppose for numerous reasons.

Enter the Pelosi tactic, known as a "self-executing rule."

Pelosi reportedly told liberal bloggers Monday that "nobody wants to vote for the Senate bill," and so she's strongly considering the non-vote vote.

"I like it, because people don't have to vote on the Senate bill," she said. 

So, this is….

a "legislative ploy that lets Democrats defy the will of the American people while attempting to eliminate any trace of actually doing so. " (John Boehner)

Why do any of these hucksters still have power?
Impeach them all!

Greece Riots

greece Riots

 

Over 60,000 protesters took to the streets in Greece to protest the coming budget cuts, and it didn't take long for it to turn violent. Riot police tried to contain the crowds and avoid the homemade bombs being tossed everywhere.

Cars and stores were burned by protesters who were largely anarchists — and union members. Gee, that was helpful.  SEE STORY

Since we are doing the exact same things Greece has been doing (spending what we do not have) – why should we expect a different result?

Beck Hates the Poor
gryffn


…or so the NY Times says. How stupid. Glenn BEck

The left has come out with an interesting new attack on Glenn. In recent programs, Glenn has been talking about Social Justice and how it is synonymous for redistribution of wealth. Glenn said if your church is like Jeremiah Wright's church and preaches this type of social justice: get away from it.

But, The New York Times can always be counted on for being an organ for the White House, and claims that Glenn just hates poor people. It's bad even by New York Times standards. Glenn reads the article and responds on radio today – read transcript.

Transparency?
gryffn

They are behind closed doors again.

The Democrats.

Major arm-twisting and brow-beating going on, but you are not allowed to know what is happening.

That is what Obama calls Transparency and C-SPAN coverage.

Right.

Same Old, Same Old.

Lies and Obfuscation.
