Well…it seems that Bami is scared.

He is asking the congress not to “jam” through the healthcare vote until Scott Brown is sworn into office.

Bami also said that the same sort of anger that put him in office contributed to Brown’s win.

Well…He’s sort of right…  The problem with his thinking is as follows:

They’re mad at Obama.

Now, he is doing something really well.  Damage control.

If he had not said anything about the healthcare vote, people–myself included–would have been very upset, if he had told them to jam it through…it would have been the end of him.

Let’s just hope that Brown will turn out to be a champion for the people.

With Brown’s victory yesterday, it makes the headline in the picture that much better…

Mass. Senator Scott Brown in Cosmo...

UPDATE: 11:58:

Harry Reid had this to say regarding the healthcare vote,

“…We are not going to rush into anything. We’re going to wait until the new Senator arrives before we do anything new on healthcare.”

Read–Politico

UPDATE: 7:12:

Now, I realized when I was at work that I may have made this sound like a victory for us…It is far from it, ladies and gentlemen.  By the simple fact that they continue to try and pass healthcare shows how out of touch they are with America.

These clowns think that if they continue to do the same thing, there will be a different result…

Which is quite unfortunate for them because come November, they will be out of a job.

UPDATE: 9:03:

The liberal wind machine that is Joseph A. Palermo has been cranked up and is a-blowin’…he might just be the cause of the Left Coast’s storms…

In his article he just posted to the Huffington Post, he said that Brown won, not because of his ability to connect with the people and his stance against the President’s agenda, but, rather, because of Obama’s failure to “[listen] to his progressive base.”

So…let me get this straight, Prof., Scott Brown, Republican Conservative Anti-Progressive, won against Martha Coakley, Democrat Liberal Progressive, because Obama, Progressive Kingpin, didn’t listen to his progressive base?  Are you serious?

Let me guess…

The Conservative wins in New Jersey and Virginia were caused by Bami’s lack of Progressiveness?  The American people want more Progressivism, so they elect die hard Conservatives?

Palermo also blames Teddy himself for, “not cultivating an obvious heir.”

Hmm…Now, I’m no scholar like Professor Palermo here, but if I recall my third grade civics class, Kings cultivate heirs, and the Patriots revolted against the King…

But I could be wrong…

Here is his opening paragraph:

So the Senate seat that John Fitzgerald Kennedy won by defeating the incumbent Republican Henry Cabot Lodge in 1952, and then passed on to his brother, Edward Moore Kennedy, in 1962 has fallen to a Republican far more rightwing than Cabot Lodge. It’s partly Ted Kennedy’s fault for not cultivating an obvious heir. It’s partly Martha Coakley’s fault for being Martha Coakley. But mostly it’s President Barack Obama’s fault for not listening to his progressive base and forsaking us to follow the Rahm Emanuel path of cutting deals with every corporate special interest in Washington in an attempt to perpetuate Democrats in power the same way Republicans do.

UPDATE: 10:10:

I just checked Drudge and saw that Barack Obama said,

“…we lost some of that sense of speaking directly to the American people…”

Hey, Palermo, Speaking to the American People…not the fringe Progressives!

Progressive Lunacy…

UPDATE: 10:35:

On a just-as-crazy note, check out what Keith Olbermann had to say…

This is idiotic.  Frankly, it’s the Liberals who are attempting to frighten the American people.

Bami actually said to the GOP, “Stop trying to frighten the American People.”

Are you serious?

Now, that was December 9th.  It’s now the 16th and what does Bami do?

Fearmonger.

“If we don’t pass it, here’s the guarantee….your premiums will go up, your employers are going to load up more costs on you.  Potentially they’re going to drop your coverage, because they just can’t afford an increase of 25 percent, 30 percent in terms of the costs of providing health care to employees each and every year.”

If the Healthcare bill doesn’t pass…“the federal government will go bankrupt.”

“Because if we don’t do this, nobody argues with the fact that health care costs are going to consume the entire federal budget.”

Read

Woah…who’s fearmongering now?

And…as a quick aside…

He said this the same day he signed a $1.1 Trillion spending bill…

Read

And the same day that the House approved a $155 Billion jobs bill…

Read

WHAT THE HELL WAS THE FIRST BILL FOR?  All the shovel ready jobs?!

I thought we already did this…

But to bring it all back…

When Bami says that the federal government will go bankrupt without the Health care bill, does he mean that they’ll stop spending?

UPDATE:  I forgot to mention…

The debt exceeds the debt limit…Good job, folks!

Maoist and Global Warming Alarmist Diane Francis.

Canada’s Financial Post writer Diane Francis wrote an article called “The real inconvenient truth. The whole world needs to adopt China’s one-child policy.”

“The “inconvenient truth” overhanging the UN’s Copenhagen conference is not that the climate is warming or cooling, but that humans are overpopulating the world.”

“A planetary law, such as China’s one-child policy, is the only way to reverse the disastrous global birthrate currently, which is one million births every four days.”

Read

I contend that this is an argument propagated by socialist-totalitarian-power-grabbers who want the rules to apply to other people…not themselves…

The woman who wrote the above article…has two children…

And the Hypocrite of the year award goes to…

Diane Francis!

“Humans are the only rational animals but have yet to prove it.”

Francis goes on to say that the population fix is “simple” and “dramatic.”

“China has proven that birth restriction is smart policy. Its middle class grows, all its citizens have housing, health care, education and food, and the one out of five human beings who live there are not overpopulating the planet.”

And here comes the fear-mongering to drive the point home!

“For those who balk at the notion that governments should control family sizes, just wait until the growing human population turns twice as much pastureland into desert as is now the case, or when the Amazon is gone, the elephants disappear for good and wars erupt over water, scarce resources and spatial needs.”

Now…I wonder if this power-hungry Maoist is aware that China’s one child policy leads to a higher ratio of baby boys to baby girls being born, child abandonment, and infanticide…

Not to mention that China is the home to a laundry list of human rights violations…

Yes, to this stooge, China is a model society…

Nevada Senator Harry Reid tried to redo his comments about health care and race relations–saying that his point was distorted..

“At pivotal points in American history, the tactics of distortion and delay have certainly been present,” Reid said. “They’ve certainly been used to stop progress. That’s what we’re talking about here. That’s what’s happening here. It’s very clear. That’s the point I made — no more, no less. Anyone who willingly distorts my comments is only proving my point.”

Now, for those of you, by either my fault or yours, who didn’t hear what he said to cause all this “feigned outrage…”

“You think you’ve heard these same excuses before? You’re right.  In this country there were those who dug in their heels and said, ‘Slow down, it’s too early. Let’s wait. Things aren’t bad enough’ — about slavery. When women wanted to vote, [they said] ‘Slow down, there will be a better day to do that — the day isn’t quite right. . . .’”

“When this body was on the verge of guaranteeing equal civil rights to everyone regardless of the color of their skin, some senators resorted to the same filibuster threats that we hear today.”

Umm…I’m not even going to touch the first part…race-baiting isn’t my thing…

Now, the second part…

He is also trying to Reido history…

He must be speaking of his ideological colleague, Robert Byrd.

Let’s not forget that Mr. Byrd was an Exalted Kraken Kleaglet…or something…in the KKK…

And let’s not forget that Mr. Byrd filibustered the Civil Rights Bill in 1964–20 years after joining the Klan.

He filibustered the bill for 14 hours…

And he also opposed the Voting Rights Act.

Tell me, Mr. Reid, who resorted to those same filibuster threats?

Those evil Republicans?

Taxing “Cadillac” health plans in order to pay for universal healthcare?  What does that sound like?  Let’s hope this proposal does not pass.

Supporters claim that the tax will cause employers to hunt for cheaper plans in order to avoid the tax, forcing insurers to lower their prices.  Critics claim that this will lead to rising costs for employers, and by extension, families and individuals.

But wait, there’s more!

Nancy Pelosi offered up an alternative, which would be to tax insurers’ “windfall profits”.  Genius!  Let’s take away the incentives for running a successful business to pay for healthcare for everyone.

Sound like anything to you folks?

Check out the video here.

Here’s what’s going on here.  These youths from Ron Clark Academy are on the set of CNN, singing a song for health care reform to the tune of Miley Cyrus’ “Party in the USA.”

According to these youths, the reason there isn’t bypartisan support is because of Joe Wilson…

I don’t really know what to say about it…

Rep. Alan Grayson from Florida claimed Tuesday night that the Republican’s health care plan simply calls for Americans to “die quickly” should they get sick.

Republicans are now demanding that he apologize and that Nancy Pelosi and the House publicly discipline Rep. Grayson for his comments, just as Rep. Joe Wilson was reprimanded for his “You lie!” outburst.  They claim that this is a chance for Nancy Pelosi to denounce this sort of behavior that she has spoken out against during the health care debate.

So an entire summer of pissed off protesting wasn’t enough to get the point across… now supporters of Barry’s health care program–deserving of a death panel in its own right–are asking folks like you and me (well maybe not me) to submit 30 second videos to barackobama.com detailing why you support health care reform for their “Health Reform Video Challenge”.

So what do they want you to talk about? They tell you!

•  Personal stories: It’s hard to get more powerful than sharing a personal story about how the broken status quo has affected you and the ones you love.

•  The cost of inaction: There’s lots to cover about how spiraling costs are breaking the budgets of families, governments and businesses, and the high price we’ll all pay if we don’t act.

•  The opponents of reform: It’s amazing the levels some will stoop in order to score political points or protect their profits. This is your chance to call them out.

Man, nothing makes me want to call my representatives and tell them to mushroom the nation’s defect like a 30 second video from Penny Prius telling me a story about how her grandma died. Didn’t realize that appeals to emotion were logical forms of argument.

BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!

Thats right, folks there are fabulous prizes involved with this contest!

According to the official rules:

One winner will receive the following prize: all or part of the winner’s video may be used in a TV ad associated with DNC’s health reform campaign (approximate retail value: $0).

(emphasis added)

So… you get a prize worth ZERO dollars and the entire nation gets to see you on television calling people out for stooping “in order to score political points”, while the DNC trots you out to… score political points. And you would have consented to having your image and likeness broadcast on television for the purpose of… scoring political points.

Here’s a Harrington Report Top Tip: When recording your video, make sure your camera is positioned correctly so the DNC will be able to clearly see you and your moral high horse in the shot.

          The reason you are unfamiliar with the name Joseph A. Palermo is not a failure on your part. It is because of Palermo’s failings to rise up in the liberal ranks to make a name for himself. But believe me when I say this race-baiter has done everything imaginable to be recognized by the delusional left, and the public in general.

This is from his Huffington Post bio:

            “Associate Professor, History, CSU, Sacramento. Bachelor’s degrees in Sociology and Anthropology from UC Santa Cruz, Master’s degree in History from San Jose State University, Master’s degree and Doctorate in American History from Cornell University. Expertise includes political history, presidential politics, presidential war powers, social movements of the 20th century, movements of the 1960s, civil rights, and foreign policy history.”

            I actually had the displeasure of experiencing Palermo’s preaching my sophomore year at California State University, Sacramento. It wasn’t the fact that Palermo was saying things I’d never heard before, but his zeal and brazenness that made him stand out among the other patchouli loving professors. In the ideological monopoly known as College, Palermo stood out as a Chief Executive Officer… or at the least a store manager. Palermo is a perfect product of academia: A non-thinking person plagued with the disease of Marxist regurgitation.
