Doonesbury Say What?

...have her gall bladder removed because it was less expensive than having it done in Phoenix, AND she took a friend with her! There's a very easy way to fix the health care system. Take all of the Congresscritters and put half of them on Medicare, the other half in an HMO system. It would be reformed within a year. Elizabeth Edwards was on The Daily Show a few weeks ago shilling her new book. She ...

Morons

What is wrong with our political class? They seem to enjoy wiping their asses with the Constitution. House and Senate bills are awaiting reconciliation with the purpose of giving DC a voting member of the House of Representatives. Here's the relevant portion of the Constitution (I see no overriding Amendment): Article I, Section 2: Clause 1: The House of Representatives shall be composed ...

Fricking Morons

These have to be among the most idiotic people in the world. First, they're trying to sneak into Gaza to provide aid to Gazans during an Israeli bombardment. Second, when told to turn their boat back, they elected to completely ignore the radio and tried to evade the Israeli patrol. In the ensuring pursuit, the "aid" boat wound up being hit at least once (depending on who you ask) by the ...

I am starting to think Congresscritters should be legal to hunt.

The final version of the stimulus bill, negotiated by the Democratic leaders of the House and Senate, includes a provision creating a federal database that will hold the personal medical records of every American, Katie Grant, spokeswoman for House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) told CNSNews.com Thursday. A couple of years ago, a VA employee's work laptop was stolen. I was one of the ...

A third letter to the congresscritters

That I thought I'd post here, for kicks. I hope anyone who reads this will also contact their representatives as soon as possible, as this will probably go to vote soon... I've never been a single issue voter, and have always tried to stay informed and educated as to what is going on in the world around me. I've been a flexible voter and have, in the course of my adult life been a ...

Descending into Farce

.... Someone wants to pass a bill for, say, saving the country from economic collapse. “NO”, say the Congresscritters in unison, “it shall not pass. At least, not until we get ours.” And so the pork ... often I mean “the people who supplied the campaign finance”). And the bigger the crisis, the more Congresscritters need to be bribed in this way, and the stranger their demands become. Because there is ...

Pre-Ridiculous Tuesday, and Human Horse Races

...fuck of a lot more interesting on the Democratic side, actually. See, the DNC has a special type of delegate, called a "superdelegate". Superdelegates are high-ranking Party members, Democratic Congresscritters, big muckers, and establishment flunkies. Their single vote ends up counting multiple times. You can, in this election, get a clear idea of who's the establishment candidate and Business As...

If you are a U.S. Veteran - read this and pass it on!

...two years of free health care - even if you have seen combat. After Bush vetoed the military spending bill, which contained another three years, you are back to TWO WHOLE YEARS! EVERYONE: Write to your Congresscritters and protest this asinine policy. I am a veteran - who never saw combat during the Vietnam era. I am enrolled, and as such, am entitled to whatever healthcare I need for the rest of...
