"I've got lots of things I want to do" [in a lame duck] --Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D., W. Va.)“If I can’t have you then nobody can!”
Those are the words of a crazed obsessed murderous rejected lover with crimson knife in hand standing over the bludgeoned body of a wife who rejected him and was going to file for divorce. He’d been abusing her for years and she finally summoned the courage to protect her and her children from this psychopathic monster.
Likewise fearing that the American people have had enough and will abandon them in November 2010 Democrats are planning to get their last stabs in on the American people before the people can file for divorce.
What are the partisan legislative slabs that Democrats plan to bludgeon the American people? I’m glad you asked, they are: Cap and Trade, Card-check—the measure to curb secret-ballot union elections, Federally mandated universal voter registration system to override state laws, Deficit commission recommendations, New taxes, Ratification of the New Start nuclear treaty, Budget resolution to lock in increased agency spending and of course more pork sending.
Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin, chair of the Senate committee overseeing labor issues, told the Bill Press radio show in June that "to those who think [card check] is dead, I say think again." He told Mr. Press "we're still trying to maneuver" a way to pass some parts of the bill before the next Congress is sworn in.—John Fund
What I am talking about is Democrats plans to use the anticipated upcoming lame duck session to traumatize the American people with more unpopular partisan legislation. These plans are in the works as partisan Democrats begin to plan their fates. This tact is now made possible because the legislators who will be voting for these highly damaging bills have either retired or polls indicate that there is no way that they will be returned to Congress. Therefore, these rejected Democrats feel they have nothing to fear from the American electorate any longer. (see article)
The rush to recess gives Democrats little time to pass any major laws. That's why there have been signs in recent weeks that party leaders are planning an ambitious, lame-duck session to muscle through bills in December they don't want to defend before November. Retiring or defeated members of Congress would then be able to vote for sweeping legislation without any fear of voter retaliation.—John Fund
So in the most anti-American “in your face” one finger jester that Democrats can muster they are going to muscle through as much of their agenda as possible while they lock down the measures which they’ve already passed before America can send them packing.
These unconscionable acts fit only for saboteurs and traitors place ideology and partisanship above the welfare of country.
To which I say if Democrats really want a bloodbath this November now that the American people are warned, the people should grant them their wishes. Any Democrat running for office this November in local, State or National elections should bear the consequences of their psychopathic Congressional Democrat leadership.
If Democrats feel that they are going to go out while destroying democracy on their ways to the exit doors the American people should rid their government of as many of these psychopaths and possible.
Moreover, if Democrats proceed with their plans to muscle through more of their partisan agenda before they leave, then let the voters send so many Democrats out this November that no other party would think of lifting a contemptuous middle finger at the American people because the people had enough and voted the scoundrels out!
