Powerful video, grenadier. Thanks for posting it.
I knew many of those details, but not all. This healthcare bill is all about control of the people. It's not the will of the people... only 25% of Americans still want the bill to pass. At the time of the presidential election, only 5% considered healthcare to be an important issue. The White House maintains that Obama will "make good on his promise to the American people." |

As a Canadian I can't vote in the U.S. but I sure hope they'll get it right in November 2010. If election results in Mass. N.J. and Va are any indication, U.S. voters are waking up. |

They are waking up - and almost half the population was already awake before the presidential election. But if the dems ram this health bill through as they're obviously trying to do, it will be in place, and it will be too late.

Yeh, its seems they're going the ''reconciliation, or nuclear, or simple majority rule" route (or whatever they want to call it for the day) and it will be virtually impossible to stop the health-care train wreck that will be set in motion. My prayers are with you Key, and for your country. I honestly mean that

Thank you, meagin. On the forum, it feels funny being the sole spokesperson of over 300 million US citizens, but I do appreciate your well wishes.
I personally think all hell is about to break loose across this country and in Washington, not necessarily violence, but a lot of people are upset. As you probably know, this "reconciliation" procedure is usually reserved for budgetary issues, not for life changing events for all Americans. That's what Republicans have used it for in the past. At least there's still the slightest bit of hope that the dems might not find the 51 votes needed to pull off this scam. |

We'll hold on to that 'hope' with you Key. What side is your representative on? Have you been having to burn his fax, or telephone lines to be heard? I still can't believe all of this is happening to such a great nation! mindboggling. BUT, somehow I still have faith in the phenominal way your founders have set up for checks and balances..IF they are lawfully followed, that is..and even then, can they be judicially challenged?
