Republican prayer on healthcare reform blows up in their face
OPS_admin | Dec 25, 2009 | Comments 0
Before the healthcare reform vote in the Senate, Republican senator Tom Coburn, who had already distinguished himself as someone not worth listening to, urged Americans to pray that “somebody cant make the vote tonight. That’s what they ought to pray”.
Well, maybe conservatives got a message they weren’t too happy about because their prayer was answered. Except it was conservative Republican senator James Inhofe who opposed the healthcare bill who is the one who didn’t show up.
You would think that might be enough to make many conservatives, especially those that call themselves religious reconsider their positions on healthcare reform. But only those who werent blatant hypocrites and so far there have been none.

The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.-Thom(Do you think will try it? Tell us here.) -

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.
