House Democrats' 'no' votes are piling up on healthcare reform

More than two dozen Democrats are expected to vote against the healthcare reform bill that will hit the House floor in the coming weeks.

Hoping & prayin' that enuf Dems vote NO to stop this country-killing fiasco. We keep saying that if we can take Congress in November that we can reverse it... but that's not necessarily so. We'll need a strong enuf majority to override a Prez veto. We can stall, we can make some changes if the Dems see that they lost 'cause of this vote, but we may have to wait until Obama is booted out to really undo the damage.

I hate to be a paranoid sounding type, but I don't think they'd be putting all their eggs in this basket if they didn't think it was a very strong basket. I read headlines, articles, listen to stories, discussions, just like all of you... when you pay attention it's easy to see how Obama and friends are chipping away at so many pieces of the foundation of our country. What will our world look like in 2012?

Think about it. There's the Census and all the ramifications. There's the new 4th arm of government, the Unions. Cap & Tax. Czars nudging, shoving, pushing the limits. All the known arm twisting, threats and the normally unknown chest-thumping shower visits. The land grabs. The take over of the health system, the bank and auto industry take-overs. The powers held and enlarged by BHO of the Federal Reserve, etc. I could go on and on.

We are being attacked from so many different directions it's virtually impossible to figure out which battle to fight. We get focused on one battle and they attack in another area under cover of dark.

Ah well, we are all doing the best we can do and fighting as hard as we can. Keep it up, if we choose our battles wisely, if we work together, we can stem the tide long enough to get some sanity back in our government. Of course, I'm not saying that putting Republicans back in there is the answer to everything. We all saw what happened when they had the reins... Hopefully they were adequately chastised and know that we will be watching very closely if we entrust them with our votes once again.
