Watching liberal House Democrats pass the Senate’s version of “health-care-reform” last night left me in stunned silence. It was like watching an Olympic grudge match that came down to the wire. The winning team explodes with whoops and hollers jumping all over the place while the loosing team sits silently with their heads in their hands, looking forlornly at the final score. For about two seconds. Now watch as the American people (in the role of the loosing team) storm the field screaming “Oh, Hell no!”
The blatant corruption, deal making, and contempt for the Constitution during this process was on full display like a blooming fungus. Scratch the surface of this bill and it oozes. But, the government take-over of one-sixth of our economy has, and will continue to mobilize this nation’s citizenry to action. These pompous, elitist, (where’s my thesaurus?) Socialist, children masquerading in adult bodies who detest the American people will be held accountable for their actions. Their days as “public servants” are numbered.
Trying to find the good in all this I do recognize that today will be a very interesting news day. Fox will dominate, of course. State-controlled media will (predictably) spin the Republicans as heartless demons. I can’t wait to hear what Rush has to say. I’m sure my favorite local guy, Roger Hedgecock, will be in fine form as well. Tyrannical governments just have a way of making great news stories.
So, it is a fine Spring day and I will not let my heart be troubled. The Lord sets up governments and deposes them. All of this was known. He even knows all of the unintended consequences of this POS legislation. I will trust in Him alone as I set about to rid my garden of that pesky fungus which popped up. My transistor will be by my side set to “talk radio” and my neighbors will wonder why they hear me yell “That’s right,” and “You tell ‘em Rush!”
