There's nothing better than when real world events squelch hype and smoke and outright lies, especially when it comes to so-called national figures. That's why I've found it so satisfying that we've had no spring in the Northeast for the last several years, because temperatures have been so low it completely debunks the colossal fraud called "global warming." It almost makes it worth it that it's been too chilly to play any golf.
And then today it was noted that, according to Fox, "Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco district was the hands-down winner in the latest set of health care law waivers announced by the Obama administration."
More than three dozen businesses in Pelosi's district were granted temporary exemptions from the law in April, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. Mostly restaurants and cafes, along with a few upscale hotels and clubs accounted for about 20 percent of all waivers granted last month.
Ms Pelosi wasn't alone however because Nevada, the state represented by her counterpart, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, also just received a partial exemption from a provision in the law requiring companies to spend at least 80 percent of premium money on medical care and related expenses. HHS will allow Nevada to keep that rate at 75 percent in 2011, out of concern that major insurers could otherwise withdraw.
So, these clowns not only rammed a bill through that's one of the most horrendous ever passed, their own constituents are at the top of the list of those who can't or won't comply.
I'll tell ya, if it wasn't so tragic, it would be pretty funny.
Then it dawned on me that we may be on the verge of a perfect election for the citizenry. Because if things stay the way they are, the Republicans won't be able to dig up a candidate that can beat O'bama. But, they're doing very well in the states and might squeak through in Congress. So, just like in the Clinton years we'll have what's best for all after the next election -governmental gridlock!
Since Slick Willie was hemmed in by the other party, he did very little real damage though the potential was huge. And by the time he left office, since he could do no lasting harm, W quickly got the country moving again on the right track.
So, I think we should all just keep our fingers crossed and hope that stalemate comes to fruition. Because, who knows, if no new legislation gets passed, sooner or later the U.S. might even be able to pay its bills.
That's it for today folks.
Adios.
