Got to get around the "political class"

Today is Election Day in several states. Mostly primaries, but also a special election to replace John (the oaf) Murtha, who just might be second only to Harry Byrd of West Virginia when it comes to piling up pork. Sorry, though most legislators seem to think that's a noble pursuit, I find it a disgusting abuse of the US government.

At any rate, just today got around to reading the Rasmussen Report from yesterday. You can subscribe to it free, you know, if you're interested in keeping up with the polls.

Found this interesting: 

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% favor repeal of the [socialized medicine] law, while 39% are opposed. Support for repeal is unchanged from a week ago. That support is also proving to be just as consistent as opposition to the health care plan before it was passed into law....

The health care bill produces an enormous perception gap between the Political Class and the rest of the country. While most voters nationwide favor repeal, the Political Class is opposed to repeal by an 88% to eight percent (8%) margin.

Overall, 39% of voters believe the law will be good for the country, and 50% say it will be bad. Among the Political Class, 97% see the law as good, while 64% of Mainstream voters say it will be bad.

So what does this mean? Exactly who is the "political class"? All the buttheads in Washington? Do they actually believe Dick(head) Durbin, that since citizens have socialized medicine now, we'll never let it go?

You know what? Socialized medicine is not yet a reality. It's something we can all discuss in a somewhat leisurely way.

Wait until 2014 when this particular pile of shit hits the fan.

Then it will be too late?

No. I don't think so. But it will be much easier to dump it now before the Comrade and merry marxists have hired 300,000 more federal employees to advise us on how many jumping jacks we need to do every morning.

So please, let's not forgot the horror of this bill going into today's and any other upcoming primaries, and surely not in November.

We need to get rid of this crappy socialist legislation before it drags the nation into the black hole of unsustainable debt, slavery to the state, and last but not least -- Death panels, rationing, and the demise of quaity medical care in the USA. Remember -- there will be no place else to go for that surgery or cancer treatment.

If the "political class" is unwilling to commit to this, we can always find a different set of legislators. And I'm so happy to see that that is already happening.

Save the republic.
