Congress usually clears out of Washington for the holidays, but members could be working a little overtime this year.
Speaking at her weekly press conference on Thursday, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco said she’s willing to do “almost anything” to get a health-care bill passed this year, even if it means keeping the House in session during Christmas week.
“I think we would do almost anything if it meant that we would pass health care for all Americans before the Christmas holidays,” she said. “It may be that we can't, that we have to do it for a New Year's present to the American people. But as soon as we can, we will.”
Pelosi is feeling very good about the work Congress did this year.
“We are very proud of the work of this legislative session,” she said. “We are not sad that it is coming to an end. I think people are ready to go home and be with their families, and as we do so, I want them to do so with great pride because we had a plan, we had an agenda that we set out to do, and we accomplished it.”
Health Care Reform = New Social Conflict between Law Abiding Taxpayers and Treasonous Governments?
This health care reform bill is nothing more than a power grab and a government’s structure, for the beginning of the fundamental change from our present free market and capitalist system to one of a fascist socialist form of big government, by the government for the people.
A power grab being constructed in the middle of darkness, behind closed doors and private deals and payoffs being directed from a corrupt Chicago gang of political insiders and unelected czars from within the white house itself.
It contains clauses which are clearly unconstitutional and contrary to the very oath of office these politicians from all parties and independents alike took and swore to uphold. Not in a free country and nor in the peoples constitution does it give government the right to force or demand citizens to buy healthcare or any other service that the government deems appropriate, or be jailed for failure to do so!
Our Senators, Congress members all are governing like diminutive Kings and Queens, which they are not. If Senator Joe Lieberman, a Jews independent member of Congress sitting with the democrats, succumbs to personal threats that have already been made against his wife and himself and does not continue to uphold the wishes of the majority of the people, which presently stand s at 61% against this structural reform of Americas heath care system, Joe will become a member of the gang of sixty.
History will record this gang of sixty Senators as the treasonous bunch of politicians who themselves succumbed to blindly following the orders of paid political special interest groups, unions and lobbyists indirect opposition to the voters and a violation to the constitution they all have sworn to uphold, but apparently have not read.
Any final passage of this structural reform health care bill will be the end of the start of this administrations illegal and unconstitutional attempt, to fundamental change and circumcise and castrate the Constitution of the United States of America. God help them all.

The public now knows for certain through a new scientific measurement that the effects of C02 and all greenhouse gases on temperature globally is less than 1/6th of what the UN says it is!
A new paper published just last month by Professor Richard Lindzen of MIT, with his formidable authority behind it and because he did it by straight forward measurement of the comparison between changes in surface temperature and changes in outgoing radiation, hopefully this should be the one scientific analysis that brings this scare finally to an end.
What is actually happening is that nearly all of it is getting out into space just as before. So the warming effect of C02 over the whole of the next 100 years or more is going to be far below 2 Fahrenheit degrees and it might even be only 1 Fahrenheit degrees.
So,now that there is a known actual scientific measurement result, all the previous UN reports are out of date and were further based on computer models and computer models are another word for guesswork and their guesses were wildly implausible.
So, because the facts have changed and there is now a scientific measured result, there should be no argument with it and to date no one has dared to argue with this paper and his scientific analysis, which is not a computer model, by Professor Richard Lindzen of MIT. Why and why has the media not been reporting on this non global warming scientific study????
