Our elected officials never cease to amaze me with their cavalier attitudes about the legislation they pass which affects some of the most important aspects of our lives. Our access to healthcare is currently the necessity targeted to be FUBAR by Congress and The Messiah. Several versions of another one of those gargantuan bills that none of them even read or make the slightest attempt to understand are making their way through the legislative process. And the Democrats are getting so good at this game they are now not even bothering to hide their contempt for the voters.
First we had Henry Waxman’s smirky response ridiculing concerns that legislation was being passed without sufficient examination of the provisions contained therein. He hired a speed reader to come in to make a mockery of the whole process.
And the ranking Republican member of the Committee was equally offensive in going along with the joke. It’s just a party a day with these scumbags; they don’t give a second thought to the effect their actions have on our lives. As long as the lobbyists and their great leader The Messiah are all happy, all is well in DC-land.
But not to be outdone, John Conyers has now openly announced that “we don’t need to read no stinkin’ legislation.”
Wow. Two whole days and two lawyers he says he needs. Excuse me, but aren’t many of those officious little twits working as staffers in most Congressional offices lawyers? What exactly do they do if not advise them on legislation? How exactly do they decide which legislation to support? Just seek advice from lobbyists bearing gifts?
If we do not vote these jackasses out of office at the next election, our country and our lives and rights are going to be changed, and possibly irreversibly changed, so dreadfully that we probably can’t even comprehend the extent of the damage we will suffer. And yet they have the audacity to continue with the letters requesting campaign contributions from us. I have two on my desk right now from Mike Ross, who seemed to be spearheading the little show of defiance the Blue Dogs staged in order to get a few meaningless cosmetic changes in the healthcare legislation. Of course, then they promptly rolled over for the obligatory tummy-scratch from Obama and his cronies. I don’t know why he sent me the request; I don’t live in his district and can’t remember contributing to him before (although as a recovering Democrat, I probably did). I’m seriously considering sending him a Snausage.
