Guest bloggers at Iowahawk’s tell a tale of woe of the Big Voter booboisie on the march in ever-increasing numbers with the goal of limiting their rights as Government-Americans:
Certainly, legislators and government officials have always had to deal with the annoyance of obtrusive constituents. But there was always a belief that somehow, between election campaigns, we would muddle along despite the constant threat of voter interference. Those of us who survived the horrors of November 1994 worked hard to design important safety net protections, such as revolving doors, redistricting, earmarks, and franking privileges, in a bipartisan effort to insure “Never Again.” And with the inauguration of President Obama in January, there was an optimistic sense that the era of Big Voter was finally over.
And for the background story, just mosey on over to The Sundries Shack for the video, or check out Roger Simon, who provides a transcription of the money quote:
“I look at this health care plan and I see nothing that is about health or about care. What I see is a bureaucratic nightmare, Senator. Medicaid is broke, Medicare is broke, Social Security is broke and you want us to believe that a government that can’t even run a Cash for Clunkers program is going to run one-seventh of our U.S. economy? No sir, no!” she said.
I am very glad to live in a House District where a real American in my Congressman, Sam Johnson. Too bad both my Senators, Cornyn and Hutchinson have been infected by Washington. I can remember when they were both pretty good. Unfortunately it’s been way too long since either of them had a job in the private sector.
I’ve greatly enjoyed all the video I’ve seen of various town meetings, and especially appreciated the Specter/Sibelius fiasco. I was so proud of the woman who made that articulate and accurate statement and question.
Now they are trying to tell all of us that it is “manufactured” and that those “mobs” are “bussed in.” IMO, just more evidence that they don’t know what to say. I think they have underestimated many, if not most, of the American citizenry from the start.
