The Parlementarian can be overuled by Biden (pressuming he doen't get lost on the way) and also Reid. Thing is, it virtually never happens. If it does, it will be an even more naked power grab.

And this would be surprising????? At this point, the "Nuclear Option" will become common fodder, as they know that falling on the sword, is what good Progressive Liberals do....

Back to Reading the Federalist Papers, especially Madison (10) and (51)....

Madison thought of this very scenario, allowed for a potential correction with SCOTUS, and than of course there is always the tar, feather, and run out of town on a rail method,....

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Tar and feathers (or rope ) is the only practical solution. The next big project is Immigration so that they NEVER have to worry about getting reelected, all our "new citizens" will be so grateful.
If you think they will let you vote them out your a fool.
The only way to get rid of a socialist infestation is to drag them out in the street and kill them.
and leave the bodies lay as a reminder to the replacements.

I always liked the image of Mussolini after the partisans got hold of him. It leaves a telling image for all politicians to remember.

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Sad to say, but this has left me feeling discouraged.  Much of what I feel is expressed in the comment I found over on Brigid's Blog, posted in response to one of her posts....

I also work three people besides myself. If this bill passed I will lay my guys off and slowly back out of buisness. I will also sign my belongings over to my children to own nothing and just find a hole to crawl of in till I'm needed. I do not know this country that we are becoming nor do I want the stench of it on me. Beaks my heart that we ended up here.I pray that someone with more foresight than me can see a way out of this gator hole.


I ordered a blender today.  I need it to make Hazeritas....


Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."

It ain't over and the fat lady has yet to warm up her pipes. The Senate can kill this thing by a point of parlimenterary procedure since the House changed the bill. This will send it back to the House for another vote. Not a done deal, but if I were you I would stop bitching and start calling my Senator. It will be done by Tuesday at the latest. Now is the time to act. This can still be stopped, but only by an unelected official.
FQ13 who is pissed about this whole thing. Pissed about healthcare that wasn't what was on offer in the election, pissed at Dem tactics in passing it, and pissed that the fate of a large chunk of the American economy now lies in the hands of the Senate Parlimentarian! WTF? I'll pay $100 to anyone who can name him without looking it up. Yet, he decides whether this whole thing goes through. His name is Alan Frumin (yes I looked him up)  and his call on whether the House bill is out of order or not will probably tell the tale. This is one for future lectures on how weird American politics can get, but now I'm just pissed. >:(



Why the hell are you pissed?!?  YOU voted for this!!!
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!

Just like saying "oooooops" after the girlfriend says "I'm late."

Doesn't help or change things  >:(
