Senate ObamaCare Cloture Vote On Saturday!

Kill the BILL Today – Stop ObamaCare In The Senate!

Alert: We Have the Chance to Kill Socialized Medicine TODAY -

Reid and Senate Democrats announced they will file cloture today on the motion to proceed regarding ObamaCare. He will go to the floor for cloture on the motion to proceed to a House-passed tax bill, to begin the Senate debate on ObamaCare.

This vote will require 60 votes and will likely occur on Saturday.

Several Democrats have said they will not vote for the bill. Remember cloture is a three day process – file on day one, day two is an intervening day and the vote occurs on day three. Reid is using a House-passed tax bill as a “shell” allowing him to offer up the language he released tonight as a substitute amendment if he gets cloture on the motion to proceed.

Reid’s Senate version of ObamaCare calls for:

• Hiding the $1.8 Trillion price tag by not accounting for actual costs.
• Major reductions in Medicare befits to seniors.
• Major Tax Increases on every American to pay for it all.
• Reid called for increasing the Medicare payroll tax.

ALERT: We all know that “ObamaCare — the two thousand page Democrat healthcare bill — passed the U.S. House of Representatives last week… by THREE VOTES.

The radical leftists in the House were able to squeak their bill through…

But we have STILL have a chance to stop them in the SENATE…TODAY!

Even after a final barrage of over eighty thousand faxes from our members that POURED in to the U.S. House… a slight majority of Congressmen still voted to destroy our freedom in health care.

Those legislators will be feeling the WRATH of voters next year — but WE still have our work cut out for us NOW!

WE HAVE NOT LOST. The bill pushed by Obama, passed by leftist Democrats in the House — and rejected by all but one turncoat Republican — must now head over to the U.S. Senate…

And we CAN defeat it there!

In fact… we can stop this bill COLD TODAY. Here’s how:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) last Tuesday laid the groundwork for the Senate’s healthcare reform debate to start TODAY – Tuesday, Nov. 17th. Reid filed a motion to introduce the bill yesterday, Monday, Nov. 16. Anticipating a Republican objection, the bill would be pushed onto the Senate calendar.

BUT… Reid’s action last Tuesday sets up a critical vote this week on a motion to proceed to the bill. Such a motion would require 60 votes to succeed — and there’s a GOOD CHANCE that Reid does NOT have those 60 votes!

Reid needs a majority (51) to pass the motion to proceed so the Senate can begin debating and amending the bill.  If Republicans filibuster this motion, he will need 60 votes to invoke cloture and shut off debate.

THIS IS IT — one of our BEST chances to kill this bill, before it even gets off the ground!

Remember, this bill is the worst of all possible bills. It’s chock full of every far-left special interest socialistic dream imaginable. Here’s some of what’s in its TWO THOUSAND PAGES:

• The CBO estimates that H.R. 3962, the health bill that the House passed, would cost $1.2 TRILLION over 10 years, including the cost to states for mandated Medicaid expansion ($34 billion), the “Doc Fix” ($245 billion), and authorized discretionary spending for grants, public programs, changes and funding for a variety of agencies that would be responsible for implementing H.R. 3962.
• The bill protects trial lawyers. The bill gives money (authorized at “such sums”) to states that enact “certificate of merit” (a document signed by a medical professional that says there is a probability that the standard of care was violated) and / or a certificate of “early offer” (an early, confidential apology) laws, as long as the states don’t limit attorneys’ fees or impose caps on damages.
• The current version will give billions of dollars of taxpayer healthcare benefits to ILLEGAL ALIENS in America. It would allow illegal aliens to use the new healthcare “exchange” and would not require verification to keep illegal aliens out of the other parts of the proposed federal healthcare system. Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus fought back against reports that leaders would add Senate language to block illegal immigrants from participating in the insurance exchange.
• It will create a nationwide federal government program, the “public option,” which will pay for abortion on demand — with federal funds, of course, because that is what federal agencies spend.

Liberals in the House AND the Senate ignored us when the majority said, “NO BAILOUT.” They ignored us when the majority said, “NO FAKE STIMULUS.” Now, they’re trying to ignore us when the majority demands with a clear voice, “NO GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER OF HEALTH CARE!”

We all remember when President Obama stood in front of a joint session of Congress — and LIED. He LIED when he said they weren’t planning to set up “end-of-life panels” — his cronies have promoted the idea for a long time now. He LIED when he said his “reforms” wouldn’t insure illegal aliens — it has been clearly shown that there would be NO WAY to prevent this from happening. He LIED when he said that his “government option” health care plan would not force taxpayers to pay for abortions — the Obama-backed House bill would explicitly authorize the federal government insurance plan to pay for elective abortions and would explicitly authorize taxpayer subsidies for private abortion insurance.

The American people are TIRED of being lied to — which is why over ONE MILLION of us went to Washington, D.C., to bring the voice of the MAJORITY to the doorstep of Congress. You see, the “sleeping giant” in America has been awoken… and we aren’t going back to sleep… not while our own government tries to cram a socialist health care plan down our throats!

And on top of all of this… the fact remains that we can’t AFFORD this plan! In the face of an estimated $1.85 trillion federal budget deficit for FY2009 and projected trillion dollar annual deficits for the foreseeable future, how can anyone in Congress vote for this health care plan, which will cost over $1 trillion over the next ten years? Plus, Congress is facing at least $53 trillion of unfunded liabilities due to its passage of the previous entitlement programs, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the recent addition of prescription drug coverage for Medicare. How can anyone in Congress vote for a new entitlement program for health care when Congress has not even begun to face up to this unfunded liabilities problem?

Well, they’re trying to — but WE can stop them, with YOUR help!

TAKE ACTION: Even the Democrats are now admitting that it’s conceivable that we might not even get passage this week on the usually perfunctory motion to proceed to debate. That’s because Republicans will filibuster even that, requiring 60 votes… and there are at least two Democrats who could join that filibuster.

BUT THEY NEED TO HEAR FROM US TO BE CONVINCED!

We CANNOT let the radical liberals in Congress — and the White House – force this plan for socialized health care on the American people! That’s why we’ve set up our website to enable you to send a strong message to every single member of the U.S. Senate, OPPOSING this outrageous plan.

For about what it would cost you in time and telephone charges, you can send Blast Faxes to Democrats, Republicans, Independents — EVERYONE in the U.S. Senate, DEMANDING that they REJECT this socialized health care plan NOW

We CAN do this! In 1993, First Lady Hillary Clinton tried to force a less radical form of socialized health care down our throats, thinking that they could do it since the Democrats controlled Congress AND the White House.

What was the result? 1994, and the Republican Revolution. The liberal Democrats are “shooting themselves in the foot” again by trying to pass even more radical socialized health care this time — but we CAN stop them!

According to a survey of 1,000 likely voters released by the group Conservatives for Patients’ Rights, 53 percent of those who say they are likely to vote in the November 2010 election oppose the “public option” type of plan just passed by the U.S. House, compared to 39 percent who like the idea.

THIS ATTEMPT BY LIBERALS TO SHOVE “OBAMACARE” DOWN OUR THROATS IS OUTRAGEOUS — and it MUST be stopped! Send your faxes right away to make sure these Senators get a STRONG message, to REJECT the socialized plan of “Obamacare” NOW — Thank you!

Obama knew Hasan prior to the Fort Hood shootings.

The things that make you go Hmmmmmmm….

Ahhhhhh, so this is why Obama’s saying “Let’s not jump to conclusions..” – Hasan was on Obama’s Presidential Transition Team!

This means Obama worked with Hasan personally and got input from him. Think about that for a second…..

Here is the Presidential Task Force document:

http://www.gwumc.edu/hspi/old/PTTF_ProceedingsReport_05.19.09.pdf

“Thinking anew—Security Priorities for the Next Administration”

~~Look at page 29.  There’s Nidal Hasan~~
He was clearly on Obama’s Transition Team.

Smell anything fishy yet???

Now of course, all the leftist liberals blogs and sites are down-playing this, saying “he was on the list of Participants but might not have actually been part of the team..“  Yeah right! If you believe that bullhockey, I’ve got a beautiful 1 carat Cubic Zirconia diamond ring on ebay — the bid starts at $15,000.00 LOL

Will 9/11 Justice be served or….does something smell fishy.. hmmm…???

I just got this question from my mom via e-mail (and her permission to blog it lol) This is a very interesting question, and an excellent point…. Please tell me what you think, and if you know the answer to this, thanks!

My mom’s question:

My reply was this:

I haven’t researched this alot, and I’m certainly no Constitution expert, but doesn’t it boggle the mind that this is happening?? Why is Obama wanting them to be tried in NYC in a civilian court? They should have already been tried and convicted in a Military court and executed. But that’s my opinion…

I’m not even sure which ones of them were American citizens and which weren’t (I thought some were on Visas right?)  Can non-citizens be tried in our courts?  If they were citizens, could they get a “fair trial” in NYC?? (not that my mom or I *care* if they get any of their rights, they are terrorists….)

There’s got to be more to this story of bringing them to NYC, you know???

If anyone has any good info on this please share it in the Comment section below, or Tweet back to my blog tweet thanks!

This morning it was announced that Nidal Malik Hasan (I refuse to address him as Major)  is to be charged today with 13 counts of murder and dozens of counts of attempted murder. He’ll be tried in a Military Court. (what do you bet the trial will be Classified?)

This was my Tweet: “Hasan to be charged 2day w 13 counts of murder & dozens of attempted… Why not 14? Soldier lady was about full term #tcot”

Since that tweet, I’ve been talking about this with people on twitter, and got a reply that got me thinking and wanting to blog (sometimes 140 characters isn’t near enough, tis why I blog *s*)

@mercifulexodus said: “@FoxieNews it is a trial that will be backed by the Obama Admin. He doesn’t count life unless it has taken a breath”

My thoughts:  (grab a snack, this is a long one lol) Hasan should be charged with 14 counts of murder!  That mommy he killed had the right to have her child, and the child had the right to life!  Obama and Liberals who don’t consider “fetuses” babies are cold and turning a blind eye to the evidence that babies are babies from as early as 8 weeks gestation.  Science has proven babies breathe in the womb very early, as early as 8 weeks. Amniotic fluid was designed by God to give the baby oxygen and give them practice in breathing so they can live outside the womb.  Amniotic fluid fills the lungs and until they fully develop. Anyone who’s watched an ultrasound has watched babies as early as 8 weeks along breathing, sucking their thumb, even crying. 

A baby is a baby no matter how small. I lost a baby at 6 months gestation in ’96.  When I held him it was clear he has all there, down to hair, fingernails and my nose.  I’ll never forget that nose…  My son got a name, birth certificate, death certificate and a full funeral as every human being deserves.  Women (and girls) who have abortions are lied to and told their babies are “just tissue”.  They almost always realize or learn later that was a lie.  Women who have abortions usually end up with depression and mental disorders, and many commit suicide.

It’s a baby, not a choice. If you don’t want your baby, I can direct you to 5 couples I personally know who can’t have a child and who’d love to give that baby a loving home.  I support making a woman watch their child on ultrasound before getting an abortion.  I’d bet anything the abortion rate would plummet, because it’s clear on ultrasounds those babies are adorable tiny little babies; moving, kicking, hiccuping, breathing, LIVING babies. They have moods, and you can find vids on YouTube of them in there bouncing and playing, and responding to us on the outside.  I am proudly pro-life.

What do you think of Hasan being charged with 13 counts instead of 14?

This just in:  The NY-23 race from November 5th is not over yet.

This is because Votes are still being counted 7 days later. There is now only a 3,000 vote difference between Owens and Hoffman.  Absentee ballots still remain uncounted. I’ve heard that a recount may be requested.

Of concern, in addition to the uncounted Absentee votes, a voting machine went down during the vote on November 5th, and Fulton County voted via Paper Ballots.  The votes from the machine and Fulton County have not been counted yet.

Doug Hoffman might still win! Owens has reportedly stated that if the count ends up giving the win to Hoffman, he will step down.

UPDATE: November 16th: Doug Hoffman now only trails Owens by 2,000 votes. There are over 10,000 ballots left to count.  The final count will be complete by Thursday.

Another update: AT 9:30 am CST on the Glenn Beck radio program, Doug Hoffman said he’s “UN”-conceding and looking forward to the vote count! The un-conceding is of course unofficial, BUT Owens has said that if the vote count goes to Hoffman, he will step down.

We all need Hoffman in NYC’s 23rd district!

Tragedy at Ft Hood
by  Allen West
11/09/2009

Last Thursday, 13 American Soldiers were killed and another 30 wounded at a horrific mass shooting at US Army installation, Ft Hood Texas. As I watched in horror and then anger I recalled my two years of final service in the Army as a Battalion Commander at Ft Hood.

My wife and two daughters were stunned at the incident having lived on the post in family housing.  A military installation, whether it is Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine, or Coast Guard, is supposed to be a safe sanctuary for our warriors and their families. It is intended to provide a home whereby our “Band of Brothers and Sisters” can find solace and bond beyond just the foxhole but as family units.

A military installation is supposed to be a place where our warriors train for war, to serve and protect our nation. On Thursday, 5 November 2009 Ft Hood became a part of the battlefield in the war against Islamic totalitarianism and state sponsored terrorism.  There may be those who feel threatened by my words and would even recommend they not be uttered. To those individuals I say step aside because now is not the time for cowardice. Our country has become so paralyzed by political correctness that we have allowed a vile and determined enemy to breach what should be the safest place in America, an Army post.

We have become so politically correct that our media is more concerned about the pre-shooting stress on the shooter, Major Nidal Malik Hasan. The misplaced benevolence intending to portray him as a victim is despicable. The fact that there are some who have now created an entire new classification called, “pre-virtual vicarious Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)” is unconscionable.

This is not a “man caused disaster”. It is what it is: an Islamic jihadist attack.We have seen this before in March 2003 when a SGT Hasan of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) threw hand grenades and opened fire into his Commanding Officer’s tent in Kuwait. We have seen the foiled attempt of Albanian Muslims who sought to attack Ft Dix, NJ.

Recently we saw a young convert to Islam named Carlos Bledsoe travel to Yemen, receive terrorist training, and return to gun down two US soldiers at a Little Rock, Arkansas Army recruiting station. We thwarted another Islamic terrorist plot in North Carolina which had US Marine Corps Base, Quantico as a target.

What have we seen done with all these prevalent trends? Nothing.
What we see are leaders paralyzed and refusing to confront the issue, Islamic terrorist infiltration into America, and possibly further into our Armed Services. Instead we have a multiculturalism and diversity syndrome on steroids.

Major Hasan should have never been transferred to Ft Hood. Moreover, he should have been administratively discharged from the Army. His previous statements, poor evaluation reports, and the fact that the FBI had him under investigation for jihadist website posting should have been sufficient proof. However, what we have is a typical liberal approach to find a victim, not the 13 and 30 but rather the poor shooter. A shooter who we hear was a great American, who loved the Army and serving his nation, and CAIR stating that his actions had nothing to do with religious belief.

We know that Major Hasan deliberately planned this episode; he did give away his possessions. He stood atop a table in the confined space of the Soldier Readiness Center shouting “Allahu Akhbar,” the same chant as the 9-11 terrorists and those we fight against overseas in the Iraq and Afghanistan theaters of operation.

No one in leadership seems willing to sound the alarm for the American people. Our Congress should suspend further action on the preposterous and unconstitutional healthcare bill and resolve the issue of “protecting the American people”.

The recent incidents in Dearborn Michigan, Boston Massachusetts, Dallas Texas, and Chicago Illinois should bear witness to the fact that we have an Islamic terrorism issue in America. And don’t have CAIR call me and try to issue a vanilla press statement: they are terrorist apologists, not a civil rights organization.

We have Saudi Arabia funding close to 80% of the mosques in the United States, one right here in South Florida, Pompano Beach. Are we building churches and synagogues in Saudi Arabia? Of course not.  Because they aren’t allowed by the Saudi government. So much for peaceful coexistence.

Saudi Arabia is sponsoring radical Imams who enter into our prisons and convert young men into a virulent ideology….one resulting in four individuals wanting to destroy synagogues in New York with plastic explosives. Thank God the explosives were dummy. They are sponsoring textbooks which present Islamic centric revisionist history in our schools.
We must recognize that there is an urgent need to separate the theo-political radical Islamic ideology out of our American society. We must begin to demand surveillance of suspected Imams and mosques that are spreading hate and preaching the overthrow of our Constitutional Republic……that speech is not protected under First Amendment, it is sedition and if done by an American treason.

I make no apologies for these words, and anyone angered by them, please, go to Ft Hood and look into the eyes of the real victims. The tragedy at Ft Hood Texas did not have to happen. Consider now the feelings of those there and on every military installation in the world. Consider the feelings of the Warriors deployed into combat zones who now are concerned that their loved ones at home are in a combat zone.

Ft Hood suffered an Islamic jihadist attack, stop the denial and realize a simple point.

The reality of your enemy must become your own.

Steadfast and Loyal,
Lieutenant Colonel Allen B West (US Army, Ret)

Look what just went by my house….

I was almost too late to get a pic.

Country livin’s pretty cool

I need to go for a drive sometime and take some pics around “town” and share them.  This town looks like those quaint little towns you see in movies where there’s the obligatory diner but not alot more, -we don’t even have one traffic light lol – but the nicest people you could ever know.  Everyone knows everyone.  That’s usually a good thing, ha! This is where I was raised, and I’m so glad my family lives here (being so close my parents is a definite plus too!) We just got this house (a bit of a fixer-upper but large & comfy) and an Acre of land. That’s plenty, takes two days to mow but my dogs and kids love it

At night, you can see all the stars.  It’s beautiful, like diamonds on black velvet.  The air is crisp and clean and most everyone has horses  (we plan to get a horse this spring, and some chickens too ha!)

Image via Wikipedia

Neighbors actually talk to each other and look out for strangers lurking around.  People in the country put city ‘citizen watch’ groups to shame.  We know when someone doesn’t belong out here, and we don’t hesitate to display our guns and call the cops.  Us “country folk” don’t encounter too many criminals, they’re scared of US, teehee!

So there’s a little about me and my life. I’m a country girl and I love my country =)

This is home

I’m curious: Do you live in a Small Town or a Big City?
