To listen to the liberal media, you would think conservatives had won the first and only battle on ObamaCare repeal –- but already lost the war.

The Washington Post, echoing the almost universal media theme (including Fox), called the vote “largely symbolic.” Over and over again, we have been told that ObamaCare will never be repealed and we are wasting our time to even think about it.

And, incidentally, the stupid Republicans reinforce this theme when they concede at the beginning of each interview that they are too flaccid and ineffectual to prevail. Compare this to the “We will win!” mantra Obama used to pass ObamaCare in the first place.

Ironically, we are probably only about four Senate votes short of sending the repeal bill to Obama’s desk in the 112TH Congress. And, if Republicans have the courage to tack repeal onto the debt limit or continuing resolution, even without those four votes, the House will have the capacity to present Obama with a choice:

* sign the ObamaCare repeal; or
* shut down the administration’s rule-making powers for the next two years.

That’s right. No regulatory cap-and-trade. No NLRB requirements that employers encourage unionization. No BATF gun registries for multiple sales. No massive new administratively designated wilderness areas. No taxpayer funded TV commercials touting ObamaCare. No ObamaCare implementation.

In September, 2009, Obama was more than four votes short of passing ObamaCare. He initially fell more than four votes short of ratifying START, repealing don’t-ask-don’t-tell, creating a 9/11 entitlement, and regulating small farms. Yet, he moved ruthlessly and methodically to pick up the votes he needed. And the Hypocrite Press, not surprisingly, didn’t whine that these initiatives were “symbolic” or “a waste of time.”

Here are the steps to repealing ObamaCare:

STEP ONE: BRING THE HOUSE BILL ONTO THE SENATE CALENDAR

A single senator can use the Senate rules to force the House-passed bill onto the Senate legislative calendar. And my understanding is that Jim DeMint has committed to us that he will do this.

This is done under Senate Rule 14, which allows any senator to object, on two successive legislative days, to further proceedings on a House-passed bill. After the first objection, the bill is held at the desk. After the second objection, the bill is placed on the calendar.

This is important.

Sure, DeMint can introduce a similar bill with a Senate number. But, even if that bill passes the Senate, it will be “blue-slipped” in the House, because it is a revenue measure which originates in the Senate in violation of the Constitution.

STEP TWO: TARGET FOUR DEMOCRATIC VOTES

Once H.R. 2 is on the Senate calendar, ANY SENATOR can move to proceed to it at almost any time -– and any senator can file cloture on the motion to proceed.

(This assumes that Udall and Merkley are not successful (They were not successful), on January 25, in their effort to abolish the filibuster of the motion to proceed. If that were to happen, a switch of four votes would make H.R. 2 the pending business of the Senate. And, incidentally, if Merkley and Udall pull the trigger on the “constitutional option” on January 25, H.R. 2 goes to final passage and Obama’s desk. I am not advocating this, but I am saying that Merkley and Udall will be held to the rules-related implications of their own sleaziness.)

True, if a GOP senator makes a motion to proceed, Harry Reid will squeal and whine that Republicans are interfering with “his prerogatives.” But as the Manchins and Nelsons and McCaskills stare into the face of electoral defeat, Reid’s “prerogatives” may not be that important to them.

How do you target senators?

With the same ruthlessness that Obama employed in passing ObamaCare. Democratic bills and treaties like the START Treaty, don’t-ask-don’t-tell repeal, the 9/11 entitlement, and ObamaCare itself started out without the necessary votes. But guess what? Barack Obama moved heaven and earth to pick off the votes he needed to prevail on these bills.

Start with all but three of the so-called “Blue Dog” Democrats who won reelection by swearing that they were “independent” and not just “Pelosi puppets” –- only to see their “independence” vanish Wednesday as soon as the Democrat Left pulled on their puppet strings. Talk about giving a big, fat obscene gesture to the suckers who have just been stupid enough to reelect you…

In the Senate, “independents” like Ben Nelson, Bill Nelson, McCaskill, etc., during the ObamaCare battle and the post-election session, jumped over and over again when ordered to by the Far Left. Any argument that a vote for McCaskill is anything other than a proxy for Barbara Boxer should be met with withering resistance.

STEP THREE: AS OBAMACARE COLLAPSES, SHOUT IT TO THE HIGH HEAVENS

The primary impact of ObamaCare has been to drive premiums through the roof. Employer-provided premiums, which were supposed to DECREASE, according to CBO, have increased as much as 9% or more IN ONE YEAR.

The only reason the insurance industry has not already collapsed is the hundreds of waivers of ObamaCare given by the Obama administration to employers, unions, and AARP.

And guess what? The biggest “gotcha” is yet to come: In 2014, tens of millions of former Obama voters will find out about the bloated premiums they will have to pay, under penalty of law.

STEP FOUR: TACK OBAMACARE REPEAL ONTO A MUST-PASS BILL

If Republicans choose to tack ObamaCare repeal onto the federal appropriations bill (the “continuing resolution”) or the debt limit increase, Obama will have no choice but to repeal his treasured legacy or shut down his rule-making agencies for the remainder of his term.

Yes, yes, I know. The GOP Senate leadership is terrified of threatening a government shut-down, for fear of repeating the 1995 Gingrich debacle.

Let’s ignore the argument, for the time being, that Gingrich lost the political debate not because he stood up to Clinton, but because he cowered and lost. The fact is that the GOP can preempt this problem by introducing legislation that will keep debt payments, entitlements, and defense funding flowing, even if there is not continuing resolution or debt limit increase.

Within the past two days, Pennsylvania Senator Pat Toomey has, at our urging, announced legislation to allow the debt limit to expire -– while requiring that the U.S. continue to pay interest on the debt, thus avoiding default.

Thus, if Obama vetoes the debt limit bill (with ObamaCare repeal attached), the international financial system will not collapse. An even more expansive version of the Toomey proposal could guarantee payment of interest on the debt, entitlements, and defense. Exactly what justification would Obama use to veto that?

So the net impact of killing the CR or the debt limit would be that BATF will not be able to illegally create gun registries of multiple sales. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will no longer be able to implement job-killing “cap-and-trade” by administration fiat. Obama will no longer be able to ban guns in a major portion of the U.S. by designating “wilderness areas” by regulation.

STEP FIVE: DO NOT LET BEN NELSON, ETC., OFF THE HOOK BY ALLOWING THEM TO CHERRY-PICK AT THE REALLY UNPOPULAR FEATURES OF OBAMACARE, LIKE THE 1099 REQUIREMENTS

Repealing the mandate is fine, because it is so central that its repeal will collapse the entire system.

But if the GOP allows ObamaCare to be “cleaned up,” (1) we will never repeal ObamaCare, and (2) the Nelsons and McCaskills will use their votes on these efforts to nibble around the edges to defeat Republicans and retain control of the Senate and the White House.

Let me give you an example. Republicans were in the cat-bird’s seat in the post-election session. At the behest of the liberal media’s call for “bipartisanship,” they capitulated on a variety of issues in order to obtain a tepid two-year extension of the Bush tax cuts. And what did that get them? They revived the Obama administration, opened the floodgates to a raft of Obama priorities, and sent their own numbers plummeting through the floor.

So, the bottom line is this:

The successful legislative strategy of the Far Left over the past year is to pronounce, like a mantra, “We’re going to win. You’re going to lose.” And sad-sacks like Mitch McConnell have all-too-often responded by conceding that he’s going to lose. Which he does -– with unbending regularity.

But we have all the legislative tools we need to repeal ObamaCare –- or shut down the Obama administration — in the 112th Congress.

And guess what? If Republicans can prove that they are not sad-sacks and losers, maybe they will control the White House and Senate in 2013.

73% of Voting Americans haven’t wanted this monstrosity thrust down their throats, but the Obama  WH Progressives-Liberals-Democrats, better known as left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum voted for the monstrosity bill, despite 73% not wanting the stinking legislation.

If anyone thinks this is for health care, than you better think again. The entire legislation is about “absolute” control over every aspect of our lives. Make no mistake about it, that’s exactly what the left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum are wanting. And I suspect that’s what they will be proceeding to next. Pelosi has already stated there will be a lot more legislation coming. She made that promise already. Do you want to guess what kind of legislation that might be?

Take for example, if they don’t want you smoking in your own house, then they will just add another amendment to the current bill outlawing smoking in your own house, or any where on your property. Same thing for your automobile. Canada has already passed just such a law under their health care bill.

If they don’t like guns, which they don’t, then they will simply write another amendment outlawing guns, because guns are bad for your health. If they don’t like you eating potato chips, well guess what, another amendment and you can’t eat potato chips or any other food they deem inappropriate. If they don’t want you fishing in that lake, then they will add another amendment, stating that fish from that lake are bad for your health. So no more fishing there. If they don’t like you playing football in that park, well guess what. No more football in that park. After all, it’s bad for your health. Don’t you see, they can simply add anything they want to add. You’ll likely never know about it, until its too late. The police will be hauling your ass off to jail, because you violated their law.

And the list goes on and on and on. There will be no end to the legislation the left-wing bastards and bitches will be adding as amendments under the so called Health Care Bill. Mark my words folks, that’s exactly what will be happening….and soon!

The only redeeming issue at this point will be taking back our House and Senate, starting with the 2010 elections. Let’s make it a real point to vote out ALL Progressives-Liberals-Democrats, you know all those left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum. You notice democrats comes last. You see, there aren’t really any “caring” democrats in the United States of Obama any more. It used to be the peoples party…Now that’s a JOKE! None of them listen to the people! Many democrats are switching parties as well. We welcome them. Right?

It really makes me sick folks. We used to have the best health care system in the world, bar none, in the United States of Something, but that is no more, if we allow them to get back by with this treason. And it is treason! All of those left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum swore to uphold the Constitution, but they’ve completely ignored that wonderful paper written by our Founding Fathers. It’s been replaced by the left-leaning bastards and bitches.

As for Obama, Pelosi and Reid and the remaining left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum, they will all go down in history as absolute degenerates who had no regard for the Constitution or our Rule of Law in this country. I suspect that GOD has a special place for all of those left-wingers in HELL, not HIS Heaven. They won’t stop, just GO straight to HELL. We can thank GOD for that event. I’m certain GOD is aware of this plight.

Perhaps one day we will get back to the United Sates of Something. Only the Conservatives and maybe Republicans can handle that for us. It must all be done legislatively. But so far they haven’t been doing much for the RIGHT side. In the meantime let’s vote all the left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum out of office starting November 2010. Then vote out Obama and all his Chicago gangsters in 2012. When Obama goes, they all go. This must happen and I believe that it will. There are tens of thousands of good conservatives that can make this happen.

We have some fantastic Conservative-Republicans  that will make extremely good candidates for President. So let’s vote that person in along with ALL Republicans in the House and Senate so we can take back our country from the left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum. Note heavy on the word CONSERVATIVE!

May GOD Bless us all. Right now we need all the conservative help we can get to fight the left-wing Bottom-Feeder Scum!

During his campaign, Barack Obama often spoke of his desire to “remake” America, to be a “transformational” President.

Not “restore,” mind you. Not “rebuild.” “Remake” — as in, turning America into something it wasn’t before.

Transforming it.

And over the next few months, President Obama and the Democrats in Congress plan to deliver on that promise.

Under color of “solving” an economic crisis that their buddies helped create and their policies will only make worse, they are engineering the most radical change in the relationship between our government and its citizens in America’s 233-year history.

This is not “change” as you and I want it.

And if they succeed, the country you and I know and love will no longer exist. Everything we conservatives have fought to defend and preserve will have been lost.

In its place will be a country we scarcely recognize. What will it look like? Let me give you a glimpse…

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where a majority of citizens receive lavish government handouts and benefits but pay no federal income taxes, meanwhile voting themselves still more benefits from the shrinking minority who do pay taxes — at ever more “progressive” rates

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where “universal health care” means waiting months, even years, for urgently needed treatment — unless you happen to be politically powerful or connected — and where all your private medical information is on a government database (don’t worry: they promise never to use it against you!)

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where “green” ideologues and other nanny-staters dictate what we drive, what we eat, home energy usage, the size of our houses, and even how many children we can have

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where our major industries, crippled by government mandates, taxes, and regulations, end up becoming taxpayer-supported dinosaurs that can no longer compete in the global marketplace

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where all employers will be forced to hire and promote not according to ability but according to race, gender, and ethnicity — all in the name of “diversity”

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA where our once-great centers of finance, industry, culture, and innovation — from New York to Silicon Valley — will have gone to seed, while only Washington, D.C., and its environs prosper

IT WILL BE AN AMERICA, in short, where only politicians, government bureaucrats, and their favored constituencies are able to thrive — and where the only “liberty” that remains is the government’s unlimited freedom to control every aspect of your life

I ask you now, my friend: Would you want to live in such an America? Would you want to bequeath such an America to your children and grandchildren?

Neither would I. But guess what? We don’t have to. Because believe me when I say…

We CAN stop this nightmare from coming true

But we’ll have to fight. And we’ll have to pull together — as conservatives, as patriots — as never before.

Because make no mistake: Our would-be masters in Washington will stop at nothing to secure the power they’ve come to think of as theirs by divine anointing. They will do everything they can to harass, intimidate, and marginalize any conservative opposition that stands in their way.

Already, they’re preparing to use the full force of federal power to stifle their most influential opponents — by reviving the “Fairness Doctrine,” for instance, to silence conservative talk-radio… by enacting “card check” laws that would expose anti-union workers to intimidation and harassment… by passing the so-called Freedom of Choice Act to force pro-life medical professionals to refer patients for abortions.

And who will stop them? The “watchdog” mainstream media? The ACLU? Don’t make me laugh.

But all is not lost — far from it. For as bleak as things may seem right now, freedom of speech and of conscience is not dead in America. It’s just gone underground…

… to The Conservative Underground — where people like you and me are free to think, say, and believe whatever we wish, no matter what the forces of political correctness may have to say about it.

Here in The Conservative Underground, you’re free to speak your mind even if…

* … you don’t believe that Barack Obama is the Second Coming of J.C. (unless that J.C. is Jimmy Carter)
* … you don’t believe that America needs a “New New Deal” — in the form of a trillion-dollar “stimulus package” — to solve today’s financial crisis (knowing that, in fact, it will only make things worse)
* … you don’t believe that bans on oil drilling in ANWR and off our coasts serve America’s need for energy independence — or that wind and solar power are better for our country than nuclear power
* … you don’t believe that the U.S. Constitution is a “living document” that means whatever any Supreme Court majority declares it to mean
* … you do believe in all the old-fashioned virtues and principles — such as faith, family, freedom, and self-reliance — that made America great, and can help restore that greatness once again.

If those are the things you value most — and that you think are still worth fighting for, no matter how bleak things may seem at the moment — then let me be first to say…
