Casey and other members of Conservative Movement...I'm afraid I owe you an apology for imposing my liberal views into your group. Please know that my objective was not to cause a turmoil, but to report a new side to your issues. However, it occurred to me that what I was actually doing is "trolling". I understand this is considered rude and inappropriate on the internet. Let me say again that it was not my intention to just post a "zinger" and run as most trolls do. I really felt I was adding to your base of knowledge. My apologies. It will not happen again without your invitation.

1. Republican senators are meeting with lobbyists to discuss the jobs bill. Why not poll their constituents?
2. Whirlpool has taken Recovery(taxpayer) dollars and is cutting 1100 jobs here in the USA, then hiring in Mexico to do those jobs there. The US cut will include the jobs of disabled employees.

The evil one has a blue ribbon panel that has suggested that they begin auditing families with incomes $75,000 to $150,000 in income to come up with the extra money they are stealing makes you wonder if we just saw the first martyr of the next revolution recently in the headlines....What about his own cabinet who does not and has not paid their taxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FYI...The following report is an event that all political parties and every voting American citizen will find informative. February 25, 2010 President Obama will appear in a televised event regarding healthcare reform with senior members from both houses and parties in Congress. This will satisfy a request made by republican leadership and President Obama's fulfillment of his campaign promise of transparency. See you there...:

Health Care Summit: See The Official Invitation, Format, Attendees (See Take Action List Following This Article)

The Obama administration has officially invited bipartisan leadership in Congress to attend a health care meeting at the Blair House on February 25. And as part of the process, they have asked Republican congressional leadership to produce "their own comprehensive bill" and place it "online as well."

In a letter from White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to the top ranking Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate, the broad ground rules are set for what is sure to be a closely-watched summit.

The session will begin at 10:00 a.m. and be broadcast live in its entirety. Although it is impossible to include every House Member or Senator who has played a pivotal role in the health care debate, the President is inviting the most senior House/Senate bipartisan leadership, as well as the chairmen and ranking members of the committees that oversee health insurance reform legislation in both chambers... The President would like each of you to designate an additional four Members to attend the meeting and be available to participate. It is also important that each of you have one staff member specializing in health care policy in the meeting.
We will have a representative from the Office of Management and Budget to provide technical assistance, and hope that representatives from the Congressional Budget Office and the Joint Committee on Taxation will also be able to attend.

In addition to the President, attending and participating on behalf of the Administration will be the Vice President, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and Nancy-Ann DeParle, Director of the Office of Health Reform.

The President will offer opening remarks at the beginning of the meeting, followed by remarks from a Republican leader chosen by the Republican leadership and a Democratic leader chosen by the Democratic leadership. The President will then open and moderate discussion on four critical topics: insurance reforms, cost containment, expanding coverage, and the impact health reform legislation will have on deficit reduction.

The rest of the letter contains the usual talking points and framing about the need to finalize reform. What seems worth watching is how GOP leadership responds to the request that a comprehensive counter-proposal be presented and posted online. House Republicans produced a short plan of their own. Senate Republicans have yet to do so.

Here is the formal letter:

And below is the list of the House and Senate lawmakers formally invited to the summit:

I spoke to a college student yesterday and she told me her business professor says that the empty suit is the most brilliant business mind in history hell he has never even had so much as a paper route much less a real job or run a business, the alums at Columbia in the business program that he was allegedly associated with never saw him at the school something fishy about a guy on a foreign scholarship that is only provided to non- Americans, being declared a natural citizen... by who and why and what is there agenda and why is he trying to do everything Hitler did to a tee hmmm I have not been a religious man but I see a very strange manifestation that makes me wonder is something sinister about it all.
The NEA are for the most part in this Religion of those that keep creating lies like global warming to get power $$$ I wonder what Evil is at the head of the snake.

It really sucks that it took an empty suit in the office for the Greater America to wake up Free Man. We will destoy there agenda by far. But changing history in the schools text books was way to far. Teaching more on King Jr. then the founding fathers and Robert E. Lee. We have to make it a point to interupt everything they want. Just as they have done to us.

I guess the problem we are facing in this country is that the Socialist's have an agenda and they will lie and steal and kill to get what they want and that is control , to micro manage everyones life, it does not work in business and it doesn't work in reality it looks like a new revolutionary war is brewing eventually.
