Massachusetts Republican - contradiction in terms?

Wanted to write about this for the last several days, but haven't had time.

I cannot believe that a Republican is actually a very potential candidate to take over the senate seat that had belonged to Teddy Kennedy in "Taxachusetts."

What is the country coming to?

That Senator Nelson from Nebraska, who got his state excused from the coming crushing Medicaid expenses under socialized medicine, is now trying to broker the same deal for all the states -- since his own constituency is embarrassed about him.  Apparently he's trying to make good by spreading the swill around. I don't know. Would you agree to share in his corruption if it gets you off the hook for paying for health insurance?

And also, under one recent version of the socialized medicine bill, the unions don't have to pay the 40% tax on "Cadillac" health insurance until 2018 or something like that -- when the USA will be over and done with, apparently.

So who is going to pay for this piece of crap? Apparently only those who refuse to vote for it.

What the hell kind of legislative representation is this?

No one wants socialized medicine except the Comrade and his minions. So why are the democrats in congress pushing it so hard? It very obviously will mean the end of their political careers.

This is insane. No one wants this legislation. I think the dems support it only to display what they perceive to be their "power." We'll see how much power they have next November. And we don't even have to wait that long -- the Massachusetts special election is Tuesday.

The dems are telling themselves and others that "once this passes" everyone will like it.

Think again. "Once this passes," if it does, it means four to five years of new and/or increasing taxes before anyone sees any benefits at all -- and I seriously doubt anyone will see any benefits, EVER, based on the results of socialized medicine in other countries. This pretty much guarantees Republican majorities in congress in perpetuity.

So, sure, go ahead, vote for "Maetha" what's-her-face. Then when the Reps win big in November, they can repeal it all, and the dem party will be dead in the water.

Sounds good to me. I've been predicting the demise of the dems since Bill Clinton. So go ahead, make my day.
