Fuck these bastards. I mean fuck them. No lubrication, no mercy.
The Blue Dog Depublicans have no agenda other than derailing an effective health care reform. They’re not trying to cut costs, they’re trying to cut America’s throat.
Like their Republican cohorts, Blue Dogshits have promoted “compromise” that is good for HMOs and other such abominations of American health care, but decidedly bad for the average American.
With the Blue Dogshit plans, roughly 85% of “small” businesses (500,000 and up is NOT small biz) will be exempt from the mandatory aspects of the legislation as opposed to exemption for real small business (less than 250,000).
This will put working Americans right back where they are now if they’re employer decides not to participate. Having to pay roughly $12′000 per year for health insurance or be penalized.
Fuck the Blue Dogshits.

They have made it easier for medium and big business to refuse to provide health care plans for their employees, and at the same time, made it more expensive. Yet without easing up on the individual mandates which will break the backs of working Americans. Especially those who make lower wages.
These are not Democrats, they’re dogs. No matter what the color they are scurvy, Jackal blooded dogs.
Thankfully, the Progressive Caucus has finally stood up and put their foot down.
No public option, no useless health care legislation.
From the LA Times:
“It’s the moderates that give [Democrats] their majority,” said Will Marshall, president of the centrist Progressive Policy Institute. “The bigger the Democratic majority grows, the more moderate it becomes. Democrats are a center-left coalition, so big legislative initiatives need to be shaped accordingly.”
House leaders bowed to that reality this week. Facing the prospect that a group of conservative Democrats in the 52-member Blue Dog Coalition might block a healthcare bill from moving through the Energy and Commerce Committee, they modified the bill.
The backlash was swift and severe.
“We’re at a point where there’s no retreat, and we can and must hold the line,” said Rep. Raul M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.), co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.
In a letter, the liberal lawmakers attacked the deal.
“We regard the agreement reached by Chairman Waxman and several Blue Dog members of the committee as fundamentally unacceptable,” they wrote. “This agreement is not a step forward toward a good healthcare bill, but a large step backward.”
Will Marshall. Do you folks remember Will Marshall? The former founding member and Iraq War Signatory of the infamous bastion of treason known as the PNAC.
Now it’s all clear. The Blue Dogshits/DLC/PNAC war on the American people is in full tilt boogie trying to help the Republican micro-minority defeat progress and discredit the President.
It’s time to wage war on these vermin. Time to shout and blog them down just like we did BushCo until they are no more.
These people are the enemy and must be subjected to as much of our derision as we can possibly muster.
We must expose them and aim our efforts at their political demise.
Netroots and the Progressive Caucus must stand firm regardless of the consequences. We must crush these traitors and ram the Public Option, which is favored by a vast majority of Americans, down their reptilian throats.
Our future, our economy, our children’s health is on the line. We must not allow these sub-humanoids to destroy the dream of a healthier nation and people.
That’s their objective, destroy. But only if we allow them to.
Comments, Pingbacks:
We have the 37th worst quality of healthcare in the developed world. Conservative estimates are that over 120,000 of you dies each year in America from treatable illness that people in other developed countries don't die from. Rich, middle class, and poor a like. Insured and uninsured. Men, women, children, and babies. This is what being 37th in quality of healthcare means.
I know that many of you are angry and frustrated that REPUBLICANS! In congress are dragging their feet and trying to block TRUE healthcare reform. What republicans want is just a taxpayer bailout of the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT health insurance industry, and the DISGRACEFUL GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT healthcare industry. A trillion dollar taxpayer funded private health insurance bailout is all you really get without a robust government-run public option available on day one. Co-OP's ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A GOVERNMENT-RUN PUBLIC OPTION. They are a fraud being pushed by the GREED DRIVEN PRIVATE FOR PROFIT health insurance industry that is KILLING YOU!
YOU CANT HAVE AN INSURANCE MANDATE WITHOUT A ROBUST PUBLIC OPTION. MANDATING PRIVATE FOR PROFIT HEALTH INSURANCE AS YOUR ONLY CHOICE WOULD BE A DISASTER AND UNETHICAL, CORRUPT, AND MORALLY REPUGNANT. AND PROBABLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL AS WELL.
These industries have been slaughtering you and your loved ones like cattle for decades for profit. Including members of congress and their families. These REPUBLICANS are FOOLS!
Republicans and their traitorous allies have been trying to make it look like it's President Obama's fault for the delays, and foot dragging. But I think you all know better than that. President Obama inherited one of the worst government catastrophes in American history from these REPUBLICANS! And President Obama has done a brilliant job of turning things around, and working his heart out for all of us.
But Republicans think you are just a bunch of stupid, idiot, cash cows with short memories. Just like they did under the Bush administration when they helped Bush and Cheney rape America and the rest of the World.
But you don't have to put up with that. And this is what you can do. The Republicans below will be up for reelection on November 2, 2010. Just a little over 13 months from now. And many of you will be able to vote early. So pick some names and tell their voters that their representatives (by name) are obstructing TRUE healthcare reform. And are sellouts to the insurance and medical lobbyist.
Ask them to contact their representatives and tell them that they are going to work to throw them out of office on November 2, 2010, if not before by impeachment, or recall elections. Doing this will give you something more to do to make things better in America. And it will make you feel better too.
There are many resources on the internet that can help you find people to call and contact. For example, many social networking sites can be searched by state, city, or University. Be inventive and creative. I can think of many ways to do this. But be nice. These are your neighbors. And most will want to help.
I know there are a few democrats that have been trying to obstruct TRUE healthcare reform too. But the main problem is the Bush Republicans. Removing them is the best thing tactically to do. On the other hand. If you can easily replace a democrat obstructionist with a supportive democrat, DO IT!
You have been AMAZING!!! my people. Don't loose heart. You knew it wasn't going to be easy saving the World. :-)
God Bless You

I REST MY CASE (http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/25/why-markets-cant-cure-healthcare/)
Republican Senators up for re-election in 2010.
* Richard Shelby of Alabama
* Lisa Murkowski of Alaska
* John McCain of Arizona
* Mel Martinez of Florida
* Johnny Isakson of Georgia
* Mike Crapo of Idaho
* Chuck Grassley of Iowa
* Sam Brownback of Kansas
* Jim Bunning of Kentucky
* David Vitter of Louisiana
* Kit Bond of Missouri
* Judd Gregg of New Hampshire
* Richard Burr of North Carolina
* George Voinovich of Ohio
* Tom Coburn of Oklahoma
* Jim DeMint of South Carolina
* John Thune of South Dakota
* Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas
* Bob Bennett of Utah
But I swear, I expect to be stabbed in the back by Republicans. Getting it from so called "Conservative Democrats" is like getting it from one of your own, ya know?
Like the difference between getting shanked by a stranger and getting it from a family member. The one that's supposed to be on your side hurts more and makes you angrier due to the betrayal.

And thanx, jacksmith. We greatly appreciate your comments and support.
We'll be rid of more Republicans. Those who enable them as well.
