‘Kill The Bill’ Live Chat Event

Posted on | March 21, 2010 | 68 Comments

UPDATE: The chat is lots of fun. Stephen Green at VodkaPundit says, “It’s Like Group Therapy for Angry Racist Tea***gers.” He means that as a compliment.

UPDATE II: Well, it’s over now, and I’d like to express thanks to our friends at Ui2 for setting this up, to Smitty for his technical work, and to all who participated. While the bill, alas, was not killed, our first live chat was nevertheless a success.

    I think I’m going to send a package to Bart Stupak’s office tomorrow. Inside it will be a bag filled with 30 nickels (30 pieces of silver).

    I’ve posted this on my blog today. Sorry for the style, English is my second language.

    I want my country back!

    It seems like the ultra-liberals have been able to bribe and coerce enough congress-scumbags to pass the Obamacare. And as I said before, there would be hell to pay for this monstrosity. Obamacare is the very definition of unlimited government – the threat of which was forwarned by the Founding Fathers more than two centuries ago. The federal government, which is up to its neck in debt and unfunded liabilities, decided to launch the biggest entitlement of all times – the medical care for all. The spending on this new entitlement will surely dwarf many if not most of Federal programs and will make the bankruptcy of federal and state governments inevitable. The time of reckoning is at hand, brothers and sisters. Obamacare is the last breath of the liberal order – and it’s time to take back America from the party of thieves and looters.

    All patriots of this nation must stand together and fight back. United we will win! There is no blue or red America anymore – there are only those that believe in America the beautiful, America the free, America the shining city on the hill – and those that believe in welfare socialism and government tyranny. Today, we fight not only for our personal well-being – but for the dignity and honor of this country, for the right to look into the eyes of our children and say – we defended this nation from the perils of socialism. In November 2010, we will answer the crucial questions of our times – are American people worthy of the efforts of the Founding Fathers? Will American people have to right to proudly say “We are Americans” – or they will forever live in infamy and indignity of welfare socialism?

    I am glad that the Democratic Party passed the Rubicon. From now on, there is no coming back for the liberal elites, no talk of compromise and middle-ground. Today, it is abundantly clear that we either will live in Obama-America or America that our Founding Father envisioned. You cannot have both.

    The November elections will be the most important elections in our lifetime. If you don’t vote for America in November – you don’t deserve to be called an American.

    Great job with the chat Stacy. Major thanks to you, Smitty, and Ui2 for setting it up. The only reason I didn’t have a major stroke last night was because I got to spend the afternoon and evening with all the folks in the chat.

    Bloodied, but unbowed!
    WOLVERINES!

    Congratulations USA! You are on your waay to universal health care for all your citizens. No more suffering for those that can’t afford to pay. Next step, as we do in Canada, Government take over the insurance companies and regulate fees imposed by your private hospitals. No hospital should be able to pick and choose, or refuse service to any person.Lots of your polititions critize the Canadian system, let me tell you, I pay $84. per month for self and my wife. I have full service. I have had cancer as has my son. My son spent 40 days in isolation with 24-7 one on one nrsing care in a Canadian Cancer Hospital. How much would Americans pay for that service? I wouldn’t want to guess, but it cost us not one penny more than my monthly premium. I’ve talked to many Americans who pay several hundreds of dollar in premiums, and even some in thousands. Obama is on the right track people, take control of your destiny.Get rid of the fat cat money gougers. You will never regret it.
    Good luck!
