A very ANGRY Z follows this excellent new addition of Priscilla's Post on the Health Care vote.....

When Franklin D. Roosevelt was President, the Democrats did agree to much of what we're suffering from today, but, I think the left wasn't what it is today. The Congress did stop him from loading the Supreme Court, and they did vote to limit the Presidency to two terms. I think they did that because they saw the power Roosevelt was attempting to wrest from Congress and the people.

Today, the left is a real threat to this country. More powerful, more entrenched and ruthless, and I think during the late 30's and early 40's there were Democrat statesmen who believed in the Constitution and had the influence to call a halt to Roosevelt's power grab.

Yes, the sun will come up, etc. But if this bill passes, America will be changed forever. Furthermore, if Obama and the Democrats successfully use the Slaughter rule, they will use it again unless the planned suit stops them. This would effectively nullify the sixty vote filibuster. We're experiencing what tyranny is at this very moment. Some seem a bit resigned to this, and that is a mistake.

Here is what Dennis Prager said. He said, "If this passes Sunday, regardless of how it passes, it will be the beginning of a second civil war". Not a violent one, but a civil war nonetheless. I agree with him. I've felt it coming as if it's inevitable.

Thirty seven states are set to sue the federal government to opt out of this health care bill. That's a shot across the left's bow. So now, we have to pray hard that the resistance remains and becomes a force they can no longer ignore. My greatest concern is that those now in power may become more militant, and descend into violent suppression. But, we cannot give up. Never. If that should happen, God help us all....By Pris

Thanks SO much for another terrific Priscilla's Post, Pris...well done. I want to add something since I read this and am hearing the television in the other room:

I don't know if any of you are watching the Democrat pep rally right now, but Harry Reid just referred to Pelosi as "The greatest leader of the House in America's history". This is the kind of mentality we're dealing with....to be 'great' the Democrats apparently believe you must be excellent at deals behind closed doors, lying to the public, and excluding the other party and telling the media to tell Americans the other party wouldn't get involved, not could not. Also, IS IT CONSTITUTIONAL TO HAVE AN EARMARK SAYING THAT ONLY THE GOVERNMENT CAN GIVE STUDENT LOANS NOW? IS IT CONSTITUTIONAL TO DEMAND THAT EVERY AMERICAN BUYS HIMSELF HEALTH INSURANCE? Does shredding the constitution really make a GREAT SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE?

I want to also add another thing here; It's going to pass, I can't imagine it NOT passing if Obama's there with Reid and Pelosi now and acting as if it's going to pass; he couldn't risk this, otherwise. BUT, as fearful as I am about what this bill will do, I'm more fearful that we have a president and others who actually think the American government can do a good job running health care and that it actually will save us money!! Amazing that they can't figure out that 30,000,000 more on the dole and many fewer doctors will work. I can't say much more right now, I'm hearing Obama and he's been so utterly INSULTING to this country that I have no comment....except to add that he is TRULY the first American president to disrespect us so much that I hear him now actually suggesting we will be able to keep our health insurance. After Blue Shield has to close because of what he's done and mandated, I'll be out of insurance. Will you? Is he this uninformed or only this dishonest and desperate? And, he's bashing cable television again....you know that's not CNN cable viewers, don't you. He's bashing for their supposed "fear mongering" and "misinformation", saying the Right's afraid that this whole program might work and the Dems will be a huge success. I'm done. Some president, huh? I hear him now saying "If you think the status quo is better, you shouldn't vote for this bill." It's either this bill or we're doomed?? Some thinking going on there, huh? Tell me what you think.
