Now Some Progressive on Progressive Action

>> March 22, 2010

The man who sold Massachusetts Government health care now disses it. For once, I agree with Mitt Romney.
  
From NRO:
"A Campaign Begins Today [Mitt Romney]
America has just witnessed an unconscionable abuse of power. President Obama has betrayed his oath to the nation — rather than bringing us together, ushering in a new kind of politics, and rising above raw partisanship, he has succumbed to the lowest denominator of incumbent power: justifying the means by extolling the ends. He promised better; we deserved better.
 He calls his accomplishment “historic” — in this he is correct, although not for the reason he intends. Rather, it is an historic usurpation of the legislative process — he unleashed the nuclear option, enlisted not a single Republican vote in either chamber, bribed reluctant members of his own party, paid-off his union backers, scapegoated insurers, and justified his act with patently fraudulent accounting. What Barack Obama has ushered into the American political landscape is not good for our country; in the words of an ancient maxim, “what starts twisted, ends twisted.”
 His health-care bill is unhealthy for America. It raises taxes, slashes the more private side of Medicare, installs price controls, and puts a new federal bureaucracy in charge of health care. It will create a new entitlement even as the ones we already have are bankrupt. For these reasons and more, the act should be repealed. That campaign begins today."

Also at NRO:
 
 
I loved this headline, as far as headlines go. I do not however, like it’s implications.


UPDATE: This email posting thing sucks quite frankly.

LC: Romney is SO right.
This is a disaster, I am really disgusted right now,
and am trying to keep cheerful.
Anyone who voted for BO should be deported.

Sometimes we gotta laugh to keep from crying Bunni. Somehow I think you'll be able to keep yourself ^ahem^ amused. ;-) Stay positive. God does have a plan, even if we don't know all the details.

The title is most appropriate, isn't it?
