The ONLY good thing about this vote is that for the time being OBAMA and OBAMA alone, owns it. He went up to Capitol Hill; beat his chest; kicked the butts of hold outs and he got what he asked for.

He can’t blame Bush or anybody! When it goes to hell, he has NO excuse; the Dems have NO excuse.

Stick to your guns Republicans! Make Obama own the whole thing and choke on it!!

Brown is worried that four Democrats will dictate to the other 56? Funny how the duplicitous jerk never complained about the gang of 13 holding everybody hostage during the Bush years when it was to their advantage.

Likewise, Nelson is a joke that nobody is laughing at because his vote, among other things, approved of Reid paying for his lady of the night deal with Landrieu...at least David Vitter paid for his whore with his own personal money. Reid used taxpayers money to pay for his whore.

I say BOYCOTT Louisiana with everything you can! NO Mardi Gras; don't even pass through the state; no get-away conferences, etc. Make their tourism industry scream. No fishing; no hunting; no NOTHING!

To paraphrase someone else, what we are seeing throughout the nation is an outbreak of common sense.

Americans are rejecting health care, cap and trade, et.al., on the lack of merit. If a dog has rabies, you don't put a flea collar on it to cure it. You put it to rest.

It's time for the health care bill to be scrapped completely and eat this elephant one bite at a time. First bite, deal with illegals who are a major portion of hospital and medical woes. Then, tort reform.__

There’s a Rick Santelli in all of us. We just don’t have the microphone like him.

However, we DO have the internet and the means to let our representatives know how pissed we are about the direction of the nation under Obama. Just by being on these boards we also give encouragement to each other by revealing that we are not alone in this fight.

I have the same overwhelming sense that something needs to be done...like a tea party as suggested by Santelli. There would be SEVERAL from my state. If it takes civil disobedience as in the 60’s, so be it. Civil disobedience was not limited to civil rights activities.

I see nothing wrong with getting madder than hell ... as long as we can channel the energy into something productive.
