Andrew Malcolm, for saying in his blog at the Los Angeles Times: "A majority of young people still approve of Obama's job performance, but a majority of seniors over 64 now don't (54%). Maybe they'll die before the next election."
Henry Waxman (D-CA) for saying, "It appears that the Republican Party leadership in the Congress has made a decision that they want to deny President Obama success, which means, in my mind, they are rooting against the country, as well." He was referencing the vote on his bill to fix the climate.
Let 's recap. It's patriotic to root against your country while it is at war, but it's not patriotic to be against something that's the biggest fraud in the history of mankind? Now you understand the Left.
Steny Hoyer (D-MD) who actually laughed when asked if he was going to read the health care bill before voting for it. "If every member pledged to not vote for it if they hadn't read it in its entirety, I think we would have very few votes".
What a quaint notion, reading something before inflicting it on the people he was elected to represent.
Mr. Hoyer, and others like him who lost contact with reality a long time ago, actually think that they will be unaffected by this. You see, they plan on exempting themselves from it. While we'll be herded into government-run plans, they will still have the choice of their private plans.
What they don't seem to understand, which is why I say they have lost contact with reality, is that people have to pay premiums to keep those private plans going. People aren't going to continue to be able to pay for those private plans, and they will go bankrupt. Then, congress will have no choice but to mix with us little people.
Of course, Mr. Hoyer plans on being long gone before that happens. His children and grandchildren are of no concern to him.
Assistant Attorney General David Kris who testified at a senate hearing and said that administering Miranda warnings to terrorists captured on the battlefield is "appropriate". When John McCain asked, "Does than infer that these individals have constitutional rights?", Mr. Kris answered, "Ah, yes."
You see the Obama Justice Department wants to prosecute these people in US federal courts and, therefore, they must be given rights that they really don't have.
Jeh C. Johnson, general counsel for the Department of Defense, explained it thus: "When you're dealing with terrorists whose, and I'm going to say this on behalf of the adminstration, one of their fundamental aims is to kill innocent civilians, and so it is the administration's view that direct violence on innocent civilians, let's say in the continental United States, it might be appropriate that that person be brought to justice in a civilian public forum in the continental United States".
Let me tell you what, and I mean what, not who, this adminstration has just given constitutional rights to: It has been reported and confirmed that the head of the Pakistani taliban has been buying children for use as suicide bombers, paying in the range of $7,000 to $14,000 a head.
Not surprising when you consider that the head of this administration thinks of babies as punishment.
