Deeming

It sounds like a fraternity prank....Deeming. "We got caught deeming, and were put in jail overnight to get over the hang-over." Deem and Pass. If you say it fast enough it sums up the Obama Administration: Demon pass.

I truly thought someone was pulling my leg when I heard this and had them explain it to me. They want to WHAT?!?!?!?! This has got to be a joke. This is NOT constitutional. This is blatantly against the constitution, how in the world can they get away with this?!?!?!?!? Did I step into the twilight zone? I feel as if I am living two lives. I have my normal life that I live at home, because most of the people I know have their heads firmly buried in the sand and are sleeping through this whole thing. I couldn't wake them up if I planted a bomb under them and it exploded congressmen. They wouldn't wake up if President Obama himself "deemed" their land his own.

And then I have the news glaring me in the face. Congress wants to Deem into law a piece of legislation that no one but a few die-hard liberals/socialists want. A few who want to fundamentally change our nation into something that no one else wants, and they can't do it the way our founding fathers set it up to do, and want to go around the rules, so they're desperate to find a way, have found Deeming. "We know that no one will vote for this, so we are going to Deem it passed. We've talked about it and talked about it and we can't convince you it's good, so we're going to pass it anyway. Because you just can't see our way of thinking. You don't have the guts to get voted out of office and sacrifice yourselves." Yea, right.

Can't you see? They know that once put into place, this will not be able to be reversed! They know it. President Obama knows that he's a one term president and he doesn't care. He will have turned this country into a socialist nation and his job will have been done. In his mind, that will have made him great. He hates a Republic. He wants a Socialist Amerika.

The Democrat/Socialists (not the average Democrats on the ground - the ones who died for our country, but the ones who lied to average Americans) have always fed us with the lies that they were for the average guy....they are the ones who started the malarkey that America was a Democracy. Do you know the definition of Democracy? If America was a Democracy then ALL of AMERICA would be voting for every single bill that went before Congress and we wouldn't have a Congress at all. We are a Republic, with elected officials to run our country and do the voting for us, with the electoral college to elect those officials. We are supposed to make informed decisions on who we elect, and they run the government so we can run our households. They vote on all those bills that come up, not us. AND NOW the Democrat/Socialists are saying you are too stupid to know anything about health care and they need to vote for you. So, now that they want to take over the government, it's a Republic? What, did they suddenly become Republican/Socialists?

So, whatever they are, they are not for the little guy. They have shown their colors, and they are not red, white and blue. They are yellow. And they are formed in a streak right down their back. They don't want to vote on this bill. So they said, "Daddy, (President Obama) we don't want to vote, can't you just pass it without our vote?" You know what this tells me? They can't even get a simple majority. We are doing our job....the real Democrats are standing up for their country. Either that, or the politicians are afraid of not having their gravy train and being voted out of office. I don't care which it is. The politicians should be afraid of the People. Because when the people are afraid of the politicians, you have Tyranny. And that should never be the case in a free country.

I'm the eternal optimist....I like to believe in my daddy's Democrat party. I like to envision the meetings going something like this: the door closes and the Republicans are locked out. When the press has access, the Democrats are united, but when no one is looking, things fall apart. There are three kinds of Democrats: the socialist who wants a socialist Amerika and thinks the health care bill isn't socialist enough (like Massa), the politician who just wants to get elected and will do whatever it takes and is weak, and there are a few who present a united front in public, but behind that closed door, they would die for America and they won't pass this bill and they are the ones stalling this bill. I am clinging to that picture, with everything in me. I have family members who are Democrats. They fought in Viet Nam. They don't want to see this country fall. They are very patriotic. I can't believe that all the congressmen behind those doors are socialists.

We have to be ever vigilant. When you write, call and email your congressmen and representatives, include that Deeming is not constitutional. It is stomping all over the constitution. Oh, how our founding fathers are turning over in their graves.
