Democratic excuseniks in congress saying we don't have the votes are a bunch of cowards who just roll over and raise the white flag. Having and keeping a nation free is hard work and takes dedication and commitment.

Democrats are relying on a few members of the caucus and upon Obama who is hedging on this, to trash what the American people have clearly stated they want.

What the democratic caucus really wants is money. Lots of it.

Wiithout hesitation democrats and congress are willing to promote an increasingly and very obviously corrupt system of governance.

No matter what issue is under consideration, what citizens have indicated they want or what is obviously required or practical, congress very reliably chooses the money.

The bottom line is any and all of our elected offiicials have proven themselves liars and criminals over and over. The openly and obviously corrupt system of governance which repeatedly harms citizens has got to stop.

It could not be more clear that democracy is at serious risk. The choices this congress makes on health care, finance, energy and a host of other important issues will define global democracy for a long time to come. The current political makeup of our government will never be more conducive to saving democracy than it is right now. If our elected officials take a pass on this opportunity, global democracy is done. No matter what they say from here on out the chances of reversing their error are nil. The threads of corruption will have been woven so tightly into the fabric of our society that the only alternative for undoing it will be to burn it to the ground.
