I urge my fellow Minnesotans to call Senators Klobuchar & Franken to get them to actually read Harry Reid’s Senate Health Care bill before they will vote on it. The bill is almost 2100 pages long now. Of course freedom loving [...]
If you go to Recovery.gov. you will see the wonderful contributions you as a taxpayer have made to the betterment of our economy. Like all the wonderful contributions, for example, made to the 57 congressional districts here in the great State of Minnesota:If you go to Recovery.gov. you will see the wonderful contributions you as a taxpayer have made to the betterment of our economy. Like all the wonderful contributions, for example, made to the 57 congressional districts here in the great State of Minnesota:The Washington Post has a front-page story today about Sen. Blanche Lincoln, the Arkansas Democrat and her plight as a "centrist in [the] health care debate." According to Post reporter Shailagh Murray, if Lincoln "does not embrace the party line on the health issue, she could face a" [...]
If you think our Republic took one below the belt round midnight Saturday when Pelosi got the Government takeover of health care passed, you may not want to see how she did that. This is the work of a political tyrant and bully. Congressmen and women were bribed. Oh yes, [...]
If the "jobs stimulus" can do this in Massachussets, just imagine what it can do for health care.
“We see $15 million construction projects with no jobs, and a $900 shoe sale that created nine jobs. Both are obviously wrong,’’ said Michael Balsam, chief solutions officer for Onvia, a Seattle [...]

Here is the portion of the floor proceedings I wanted to highlight from last night. It starts with Democrat Waxman introducing Democrat Dingle. (emphasis mine) I didn’t highlight all the blatant lies, distortions, or misleading rhetoric, but just some of the more scary portions that expose how this is [...]

If only Democrats had run on such a measure.
It was closer than I thought: 220-215, 39 Dems voting no and a solitary Republican — Joe Cao, who replaced “Dollar Bill” Jefferson in a blue district in Louisiana — voting yes. Take heart, righties: Reid is incompetent, which makes the [...]
For those not watching the debate on the House Heathcare, Democrat Rep. John Dingle gave the closing for the liberals, it was called Nationalized Health Care.

Byron York has been following MoveOn.org's effort to enforce left-wing conformity on the Democratic Party. The latest news is that MoveOn has raised nearly $3.6 million to defeat any Senate Democrat who has the temerity to vote against government takeover of health care. Then there's this:
