Something's Rotten in Congress
Mark Levine intended to appear today to discuss on “Sound off with Sasha,” a National Public Radio station in South Florida (WGCU/WMKO), Congressional procedures in the recent ominbus legislation. Although technical problems in Florida prevented the show from taking place, you can still discuss the issues below:
Do you think Members of Congress read legislation before it’s passed? Not in this Congress.
Do you think bills supported by the majority of legislators voting in the House and Senate become law? Not in this Congress.
Do you think provisions rejected by solid votes in both Houses of Congress still become law? You bet.
Do you think that massive amounts of taxpayer money goes to fund pork to special interests who turn around and use the money to finance Congressional campaigns? Yep, barely concealed bribery.
Do you think that if the Majority Leader is indicted for taking illegal corporate cash and diverting the resources Federal Homeland Security agency to monitor Democrats trying to prevent an unprecedent gerrymandering scheme that he can still lead Congress? Absolutely. The Republican Caucus would not even allow a documented vote on this.
The $388 billion omnibus legislation and its provisions includes:
– allowing Congressional aides to examine your tax returns
– ending overtime for millions of workers
– supporting job outsourcing
– overruling all state laws requiring abortions to be part of health care plans
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Summer–have you? Don’t confuse your angels or their monikers (Lucifer and Satan are different creatures)–I don’t believe I quoted any scripture on this blog–am careful about that–what’s your correction or are you just going to make blind innuendo?

Urantia, Tell us more Good Dr. —–
Have you ever heard of Satan showing himself as an Angel of Light.??? You should be careful what you quote as the “gospel truth.”

So I take it, Randy, you are “An Observer,” (surprise, surprise)–it’s the Urantia Book’s lineage for Jesus don’t lose a testicle about it–it’s just a little information for an expanded mind–you are wound a little tight about semantics
Actually Urantia is earth–and the Urantia Book is sortuva encyclopedia of the Universes of Universes (It’s not for the small of mind) But it seemingly is a good supplement for the Bible and doesn’t contradict it, while offering an interesting perspective for the dance of man
When you understand who the authors are, Randy, it will blow your mind–don’t try to read the book without an open one.
Oh, by the way–after establishing yourself as an easily provable fuckin’ liar you are now coming off as a ranting, roarer–attacking out of complete ignorance–you stink of senseless vendetta–your vibration is low and slow (You ache for an ass-kicking that the Universe will certainly deliver in one form or another–your continuance of hate will seal your fate)
My sincere condolences to your condition–at this point it’s about not hurting yourself or others–you have lost the respect of thinking people.

OH YEAH DR. FREUD – I KNOW ABOUT JESUS, THE MESSIAH AND THE MT OF OLIVES THING – WHAT I’M CHALLENGING YOU ON IS YOUR REFERENCE TO THE INCARNATION OF MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL.
I RECALL SOMEONE ELSE CHALLENGING YOU ON THAT VERY THING ELSEWHERE ON THIS SITE – YOU MENTIONED URANTIA – IS THAT A NEW AGE WAY OF SAYING YOU RANT????
POSSIBLY WHAT STINKS IN CONGRESS IS OLD DIRTY DIAPERS LEFT THERE BY THE DEMOCRATS WHO HAD THEIR ASSES KICKED OUT???? HO,HO,HO

I talked with Sasha after the show. They blew a fuse. The problem was with ALL callers, not just me. And then their lines were tied up when several callers tried to get through (hence, the busy signal).
Rest assured, Sasha appreciates what I do and will have me on as a guest at a future time. I myself will address many of the issues in the omnibus bill on Monday’s show: “The Death of the Republican Moderate”.
