And Now ... the "Deem and Pass" rule!
OUTRAGE!!!!
The public pressure on the Democrat House members must be intense. Many are telling Princess Pelosi that they just can't vote for this monstrosity ... if they do, they'll be kicked out of office by angry voters.
So here's the problem. Pelosi is 140% dedicated to getting ObamaCare passed. This bill is the portal through which she and other elite Democrats are going to completely re-order American society. It absolutely MUST pass. The Democrats might never have another chance to get this much control over the lives of American citizens.
So .. what we need here is a way to get this bill passed without jeopardizing the political careers of reluctant Dems. If they could just pass the bill without actually voting on it everything might work out. But how do you do that?
This is where the "Deem and Pass" rule comes into effect. Princess Pelosi has ordered her chairwhatever of the House Rules Committee to create a "rule" for the Senate ObamaCare bill that would allow it to become law without house members actually having to put themselves on the record by voting. Louise Slaughter, the Rules Committee Czarina, has done just that. It's called a "self-executing rule," or "Deem and Pass."
Here's how it will work:
If you've been paying attention you will know that the plan up until the last few days was for the House to simply pass the Senate Bill as it stands and send it to The Community Organizer for his signature. Then the House and the Senate would get together and agree on some fixes to the new law and pass them by majority votes in both chambers. Well ... that's not working any more. House Democrats are frightened. So the new Pelosi Plan is to have the House and the Senate pass the fixes without the House actually voting on the Senate bill. Buried in the fixes - which would be rammed through the Senate with 51 votes - would be a little clause which states that the House will have been "deemed to have passed" the Senate bill. So ... ta da! The Senate bill and the fixes become law without the frightened House members actually having to vote on the Senate bill!
Can you smell the absolute desperation here?
Nancy Pelosi is actually going to give the congress all of 60 minutes to read this bill before it gets voted on. This is how the Democrats seize control of almost 20 percent of the American economy.
We just have to accept that there are a significant number of American voters who are simply to ignorant to understand what this is all about. These Americans actually believe that these despots give a flying fornication about their health care. The only thing that Democrats want to do about health care in this country is CONTROL IT! They know that once they control your health care, they control you. Health care will become the ring through your nose .. and the Democrats will be holding the rope.
Is this the change you voted for? I suspect not, but it's really hard to admit that you made a mistake by voting for The Community Organizer, isn't it? You could start by taking the Obama bumper sticker off your car ... after all, that sticker has become little more than a symbol of pathetic ignorance. If you don't want to be all that obvious, you could just make a little phone call to your Democrat congressman and say "Know what? This is really beginning to look like a very bad idea. There's not much I can do about Obama if he gets to sign it, but there's durned sure something I can do about you if you vote for it. So give that some thought, whaddaya say?
