Do you believe that a congress removed from the people behind a wall of lobbyists within the so-called beltway is the way for the people’s house to do our business?  If you do, then you probably need to join a PAC.  But if you believe in freedom, then join Ralph Benko’s great idea of taking congress out of DC ONCE AND FOR ALL!

DON’T STAY In DC!

To get special interests out of politics, get Congress out of Washington

We send our elected representatives far from home to conduct the people’s business. We send them to Washington, D.C., where they form what our flyboys (and flygirls) call “a
target-rich environment” for the lobbyists and for the political party
leadership.

We send them far from us … to conduct our business. There was no other way in
the 18th and 19th centuries and most of the 20th. In the 21st century, of
course, this is absurd.

Study shows how Medicare rewards MDs for overuse- Reuters

Medicare’s move in 2005 to pay doctors to do bladder cancer surgery in their offices rather than in hospitals dramatically raised the number of procedures and overall health costs, U.S. researchers said on Monday.

U.S.  |  Health

The findings reflect the complexity of cutting health costs in the United States, showing how in some cases Medicare — the insurance program for the elderly and disabled — gives doctors incentives to provide too much care, they said.

Iran Gas Emgargo languishes-

A little more than one month ago, the US House of Representatives passed legislation that would ban the exporting of refined gas to Iran in an effort to put pressure on the Iran regime to stop building a nuclear bomb. According to the National Iranian American Alliance, this bill passed with overwhelming support

House Approves Gasoline Embargo
Written by Matt Sugrue
Wednesday, 16 December 2009

Washington, DC - The U.S. House of Representatives last night passed the Iran Refined Petroleum Sanctions Act (H.R. 2194) by a vote of 412 – 12, with 4 voting present. IRPSA targets Iran’s ability to import refined petroleum, which accounts for up to forty percent of the petroleum consumed in the country. Speaking in support of the sanctions bill, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), said “we must impose sanctions so painful they threaten the [Iranian] regime’s survival.”

The overriding opinion expressed by supporters of IRPSA was that sanctions are necessary as a result of failure to reach a diplomatic solution since talks began in October. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) supported H.R. 2194 saying that Iran has ignored the nuclear enrichment offers put forward by the P5+1 countries, and, therefore, the time has come for “the international community to consider stronger options.”

 ObamaCare on Life Support- from the collapse of the Senate Bill to the last resort- reconciliation- has Obama shot his political capital already?

With the election of Scott Brown, and now the opening up of the politcal war coffers on the right through the death of Mccain-Feingold, dems are running scared from their own far left agenda.  Witness the recent machinations in the ObamaCare wars.

Pelosi has announced she can’t pass the Senate bill through the House.  Barney Frank, whose MA district voted for Scott Brown,  is calling for a reboot, and they are now down to the last desperate act, but one that will, in essense, require them to take ObamaCare through both the House and the Senate again, reconciliation.

Here was their attempt to cram the bill through the House to avoid resolving the differences between the Senate and House Bill:

Politico: Democrats’ ObamaCare talks collapsing?

Part of the negotiations center on whether Reid can provide an ironclad guarantee that the Senate will not leave the House in the lurch, aides said. If the House agrees to pass the Senate bill with a companion measure — or a “cleanup” bill — to make fixes, they want to know that the Senate will indeed pass it, too.

There was some talk among Senate leadership on Thursday of putting together a letter signed by 51 Democratic senators pledging to pass a cleanup bill if the House would pass the Senate bill. But that effort fizzled when support for it didn’t materialize, insiders said.

“The Senate moderates’ viewpoint is, ‘We passed our bill. We’re not going to spend three weeks on some other bill,’” said a Democratic lobbyist who represents clients pushing for reform.

“There’s a real possibility it doesn’t get through,” said another Democratic lobbyist.

Nancy Pelosi announces the death of ObamaCare in its present form:

This report confirms the obvious—namely, that Obamacare is crumbling before our eyes:

As top Democrats cast doubt for a way to get health care back on track, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took one option off the table Thursday, saying her caucus doesn’t have the stomach to pass the Senate bill unless changes are made. “In its present form, without any change, I don’t think it’s possible to pass the Senate bill in the House,” Pelosi said. “I don’t see the votes for it at this time.  .  . ‘Unease’ would be a gentle word in terms the attitude of my colleagues toward certain provisions of the Senate bill,” Pelosi told reporters Thursday morning.

Speaker Pelosi announces she cannot pass the Senate version of the bill through the House:

There are certain things that, um, members just cannot support. So in its present form without any, uh, change, I don’t think it’s possible to pass the Senate bill in the House…”- Nancy Pelosi

Faced with the prospect of an arrogant one-party government running the country, the people responded the only way they knew how: at the polls. On Tuesday, for the first time in over 30 years, the people of Massachusetts elected a Republican to fill a Democrat’s seat in the Senate thus snatching away that critical 60th vote needed to pass a bill without threat of a GOP filibuster.

Rising Conservative star, Representative Paul Ryan, has revealed the desperate attempt and commitment of the far left to cram this government takeover through Congress, even without the consent or will of the people:

NRO reports:

Rep. Paul Ryan (R., Wis.), the ranking member of the House Budget Committee, tells National Review Online that House Democrats are planning to use the budget-reconciliation process in order to pass Obamacare. “They’re meeting with each other this weekend to pursue it,” says Ryan. “I’ve spoken with many Democrats and the message is this: They’re not ready to give up. They’ve waited their entire adult lives for this moment, and they aren’t ready to let 100,000 pesky votes in Massachusetts get in the way of fulfilling their destiny. They’ll look at every option and spend the next four or five days figuring it out.”

If the Democrats pass a health-care bill through reconciliation, it means they would need only 51 votes in the Senate for final passage. To start the process, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) would need to bring a new health-care bill to the House Budget Committee with reconciliation instructions, with the Senate doing the same.

ObamaCare will not pass in time for the next summer break, our prediction, meaning that the congressmen and senators, now closer to election, and going back to a second round of Town Halls, will have even less of a backbone to do the unthinkable, defy the will of the people, meaning that unless the dems somehow hold on to the house and their 59 to 41 majority, ObamaCare is dead.

It is like watching a team down 49-0 with a quarter of football left to play, still hurling hail mary after hail mary, desperately trying to win.  Rather than resting its star players for the next big game, the left will continue to exhaust its resources, time, money, and dwindling political capital on a losing cause.

Hail freedom, Hail the people.
