The Congress of the United States — Marc Anthony would have called them "honorable men" — must be brought back to reality. The pink slip campaign is in full swing. The House and the Senate have passed their versions of ObamaCare — the sweeping medical "reform package" that has been hanging around Washington, D.C. in various forms since FDR's time, — in direct violation of the people's growing disdain for its provisions. The bills do not reform. They destroy. If both bills become a single entity it could bankrupt the U.S., something many nations would love to see.
The pink slip campaign is simple: if the Congress adopts a final version of the health care bill, those who vote "yes" will be thrown out of office in November's election. In essence they will get their "pink slips." Organizers of this campaign hope to send everyone of those politicians who vote for ObamaCare packing, including our own New Jersey "honorable men" who have elevated talking out of both sides of their mouths into an art.
It's time to clean house. It's time to "fire" these parasites. Remember, they all work for us including B.O. (Notice how "us" translates very nicely into U.S.?)
I'll go one step further. Even if they don't vote for the final package, throw the bums out anyway for okaying their own version of ObamaCare. Each version is filled with pork and handouts for certain states.
As an example, Sen. Bill Nelson, a Democrat from Florida, admitted making a behind-closed-doors deal to exclude about 800,000 policyholders in Florida from cuts to Medicare Advantage, something Obama told the AARP in July was an example of "wasteful spending." Why? Because it helped seniors? No. Because the cuts to Medicare Advantage were needed to fund ObamaCare.
Similar sweetheart deals were made up and down the line to secure votes. So, some states are going to benefit from ObamaCare. Makes you feel great to be an American, doesn't it? Especially if you live in one of those anointed states.
