It's a Trap!

Every time I see positive or negative proclamations on health care this week, I think of Admiral Ackbar's famous warning. There have been so many pronouncements on both sides of the debate on whether or not there are the votes to pass the Obamanation of health care bill, that I believe it's all for show to maneuver politically. Drudge headlines have kept me whipsawed of late.

Meanwhile, expect more shenanigans from Pelosi, who is more desperate than a 50 year old virgin to consummate the matrimony (unholy or otherwise) of the Senate bill and some hitherto undefined package of "fixes." She has floated the constitutionally questionable idea of "deem and pass" to pass the fixes while not actually voting on the Senate bill. Demon pass would be more like it.

All I can say is that Tea Party patriots need to burn up the phone lines, in their own districts, to keep the pressure on their Congresscritter. If we can push this to the Easter recess, they can here how constituents are still angry over this monstrous crippling sucking beast of new spending.

UPDATE

In the comments, Sarah takes issue with my injunction to call only one's own congressman/women/beast. I had heard that on Glen Beck, but Sarah is closer to the issue:

But I disagree on one point. Folks often wonder if it does any good to call outside their district, and what we are hearing from staffers across the county is that it depends on where the caller is from. Since California is considered a liberal state, our calls mean more. If WE don't like the bill, it must really suck. And we are a huge fundraising state. So, I vote for call your district AND all those wishy washy lawmakers on the fence.
