I am eating yet more pseudo-Hispanic cornbread which I made last night, this time including LIME tortilla chips and GREEN PEPPAHs. I'm moving towards establishing a literal recipe...
POLITICS ONE: Conservative Instant Celebrity-Senator, Scott Brown (R), supports JOB BILL in Senate. (Although the bill is 1/10th the size of the House bill).
POLITICS TWO: Meanwhile, Progressive Senatorial Candidate Rep. Joe Sestak (D-PA) must take on President Obama's support for ALAN SPECTER, (shadow-government / new-world-order puppet), in his latest campaign ad http://www.bit.ly/bynw8J or find on u2b.
POLITICS THREE: Everybody is all grousing about the need to GO TO BUDGET RESOLUTION in order to pass the health care bill in the Senate by a majority vote, with, (see below), or without, (Obama), the Public Option. In fact, all that is needed is to play a POINT OF ORDER tactic which tables the filibuster, and opens up the ability to pass AN UNCOMPROMISED BILL by 51 votes, which will last LONGER THAN 10 FRICKIN YEARS! Why isn't anyone taking this road? Because Obama, and a great majority of Senators, beholden to BIG INSURANCE and PHARMA, (and all ON GOVERNMENT SOCIALISED HEALTH CARE), NEVER HAD ANY INTENTION OF ALLOWING A PUBLIC OPTION, from day one. This, despite the fact that, "a Public Option has CUT insurance rates IN HALF in both Oregon and RHODE ISLAND", [Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR)].
POLITICS FOUR: Obama is offering an 11-page proposal for the health care plan, a compromise of both House and Senate bills. (A "Mass. Plan"). So Republicans, who had been badgering him to put something in writing, are now complaining that he is FORCING THEM to accept his proposal, since it is writing. But at least they can't complain that IT IS TOO LONG TO READ! Of course, it includes no PUBLIC OPTION. Progressives hope Obama is "playing chess", scheming to push a public option via RESOLUTION, should Republicans reject the 11-page proposal. Obama is not playing chess. Obama is a well-meaning idiot with a gun to his head. (The eternal hopefulness, and faith in the intellectual capacity of Americans, of most Progressives, renders them dependent pawns).
POLITICS FIVE: Nevertheless, 22 Senators have signed a letter pushing Harry Reid to run and pass a PUBLIC OPTION health bill via RESOLUTION. This, I'd say, would certainly be a Hail Mary pass! And it won't hurt to demand that your Senators also sign the letter, (sponsored by The Progressive Change Campaign Committee).
