I was dying to write a quick post all week about the non drama of the Obama care bill.
While I'm not saying it was going to be easy for the President it is pretty clear to me that this thing will in fact pass, er become law....whatever.
He has too much TARP money at his disposal to spend to not make this happen.
No chance that an additional one sixth of the economy isn't going to be government run. Anybody who really thinks otherwise is a moron.
To me......seriously..........the bigger question in light of all this process, never really getting anything done for the American people, killing ourselves with debt that our grandchildren will have to pay, never changing the way Washington works (or maybe this is what he meant) is truly...........is our way of government really the best way? It really might be time to seriously rethink this whole thing. Not this whole thing like Health Care. I mean like the WHOLE THING....like the Constitution. We were raised to think it is perfect. Check and Balances. Compromise. Will of the people. Of the People. By the People. I'm not saying this as a conservative that is getting ready to lose. This shit didn't work when we were in control either. We borrow money from the Chinese every god damn day and have no plan on paying it back in our lifetime.
This clearly isn't working. This is broke. FAIL.
Knowing what we know now and we were drawing it up from scratch what would it look like? Seriously. We wouldn't do it like this would we? Earmarks. Borrowing for everyday operating costs. Reconcilliation bills. Super majorities. One guy holding up the entire government. Voting for bills nobody has ever read. We wouldn't do it like this again......would we? Certainly not like this fucking mess we call a government.
