Comments on: Crucial test vote on health care reform tonight http://www.capitolhillblue.com/node/20255 The oldest political news site on the Internet Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:29:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Carl Nemo http://www.capitolhillblue.com/node/20255/comment-page-1#comment-55607 Carl Nemo Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 #comment-55607 The very concept of a 'test' vote is repugnant, allowing them to massage the outcome for this POS legislation. This is so they can identify the holdouts and figure some way to pitch more "pork bait" their way not within the bill, but some other way; ie., a defacto "bribe" in the event they go for the final vote. Supposedly Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana is licking her chops for the $100 million bucks embedded in this healthcare shakedown, possibly swaying her against constituents' negative sentiments concerning this bill. It's hard to believe that a "feelgood" healthcare bill, just might be the coup de grâce (death blow) to the United States of America and our way of life as we know it in the months and years to come. I feel so along with many others, based on my reading and research concerning this nightmarish piece of statist legislation. The little bit of good it might generate will in no way offset the grief it will cause us all in the years to come. Once it's passed, we're screwed! It will also be just a matter of time before we read how billions of tax dollars are being pilfered by scamsters etc. with little oversight on the part of our out of control, rogue government. We have evil men and women in high places, who's only interest in this country is their self-interest first, national consequences be damned...! : | Carl Nemo **== The very concept of a ‘test’ vote is repugnant, allowing them to massage the outcome for this POS legislation.

We have evil men and women in high places, who’s only interest in this country is their self-interest first, national consequences be damned…! : |
