Obamacare’s systemic dishonesty

Was anything in this bill of goods known as ObamaCare done in highest good faith with the American People?

Anything?

Going back and looking at the record is helpful. And sickening. And infuriating.

Here’s a great example: Whatever happened to those 4 million jobs created by Obamacare, “400,000 almost immediately.”

Tar, feathers, and pitchforks are called for. Period.

Hoping for change? McCain +10

A new Rasmussen national telephone survey shows that the approval ratings for the current do-nothing Congress has tied the all-time low.

“Just nine percent (9%) of Likely Voters give Congress positive ratings, while 51% say it’s doing a poor job.” source

I find it interesting that the most liberal member of the Senate, Barack Obama, has in fact voted with the Democrat leadership 92% of the time in his brief career.

And, speaking of polling data, Drudge is reporting the USA Today/Gallup poll of likely voters showing a whopping 10 point lead for McCain-Palin. Going into the RNC, McCain was down by as much as 8 points in some polls. To go up by 10 at this point shows just how enthusiastically the American people have embraced Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

It also adds fuel to the dump Biden movement.

The real Nancy Pelosi — multi-millionaire, non-union resort, dining and winery baroness

By Mick Gregory

Nancy Pelosi’s radical political views are exactly what have kept her elected in San Francisco, along with the flow of union campaign money. The staunch “union supporter” Pelosi has even received the Cesar Chavez Award from the United Farm Workers Union. But her $25 million Napa vineyards and winery, she and her husband own is a non-union shop.

The hypocrisy doesn’t stop there. Pelosi has received more money from the Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees union than any other member of Congress in recent election cycles.

The multi-millionaire investors own a large stake in an exclusive resort hotel in Wine Country, the Napa Valley Auberge Du Soleil Resort. It has more than 250 employees. But none of them are in a union, according to Peter Schweizer, author of Do As I Say, (Not As I Do) Hypocrisy of Democrats,  and a regular contributor to the New York Times.

Pelosi is also partners in a restaurant chain called Piatti, which has 900 employees. The chain is  (you might have guessed)  a non-union shop.
