The gloater-in-chief: “Another stone laid in the foundation of the American dream;” Pelosi jokes: “No money exchanged hands (laughter);” Slaughter: “There is nothing now that we can’t tackle”

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 21, 2010 11:56 PM

President Obama actually said this in reaction to passage of the Demcare monstrosity:

It’s “another stone laid in the foundation of the American dream.”

And this: “This is what change looks like.”

Never mind that the “changes” don’t start until 2014 — but the tax hikes and pain start now.

No, Election Day 2010 is what change will look like.

Remember in November.

***

As if the night couldn’t get more nauseating, Geraldo on Fox News right now is shilling for Demcare and peddling the Slacker Mandate provisions.

Crikey.

***

It. Just. Got. Sicker.

12:08am Eastern. Pelosi is holding her victory speech. Gloating about the 220 votes she whipped up, she joked: “No money changed hands, of course.”

Mark those words.

***

Waxman moans that “Democrats had to do it alone.” Er, you forgot to reconcile your talking points with the White House, Henry.

Update 12:20am Eastern: Delusional Democrat Sandy Levin: “We spread the American wings of opportunity and community.”

Louise Slaughter: “There is nothing now that we can’t tackle.” Shudder.

Corruptocrat Dems can cackle now. They will eat crow later.

    Our nation “struck the iceberg” a long time ago. It’s just now beginning to dawn on most that “Hey. This ship is really going to sink.”

    Then abandon ship and get out of the way. There are those of us who intend to repair the damage and get back underway.

    I am sick and tired of this defeatist “bolshoi” as the Russians would say.

    Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

    Right on. Generations have made great sacrifices for our way of life. I’m not going to be moaning that the ship is sinking; I’m going to get busy bailing water.

    True.

    Know your enemy,
    the best defense is a good offense,
    and know how to put on the full armor:

    Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

    Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

    Ephesians 6:10-20

    All this talk about backlash and Republican landslides is very premature. The Democrats just purchased 30,000,000 new votes.

    It’s a good bet they alrady own those votes.

    I am glad people are getting fired up, but I don’t know if this is going to do much good, especially if Obama and the RINOs pass amnesty.

    I thought I was depressed last night, but I just read the latest Buchanan column and I don’t know if I could feel any lower. He cites statistics which seem to prove the overwhelming advantage democrats have in naturalized citizens.

    The correlation seems absolute. The more immigrants who come in and become citizens, the more Democratic the country becomes.

    None of the rest amounts to anything if we lose on amnesty.

    If we lose on amnesty, there will NEVER be another GOP President.

    It will be the end of America as I have known her for 50 years.

    Once you abandon the rule of law, there’s no going back.

    Once you surrender your sovereignty, you are done as a nation.

    Amnesty is national
    suicide
    .

    And those who force amnesty on us are committing national homicide.

    I have pointed out to our worthless DC “representatives” many times that the U.S. Constitution says it is, “a job of the federal government to protect all the states from invasion.”

    There was a time when that alone would have prompted real action to retain our sovereignty. However, since the Constitution has been kicked to the curb and is about to be picked up illegals and thrown in the trash truck, quoting the Constitution is a waste of time.

    I am proud to say that my Congressman, John Boozman, gets an A+ from http://www.numbersusa.com for his efforts to secure the borders and prevent amnesty.

    If we conceed the language we have lost before we’ve begun.
    There is NOTHING Democratic about the Democrat party! The push to change the label (and thereby steal a pass to the highground by habituating the citizenry’s thinking to consider those Tyrants as “democratic and for the people”, ie the Democrat party…) is a recent one, and one I have never and will never conceed!

    Flyoverman, elections almost don’t matter anymore and won’t if people

    Phil, for a while I believed as you do.

    I have, after much rabid disagreement within our family been convinced that Levin is right: we need to take back the “R” party.(yes I find saying that highly distasteful…).

    The R’s have the apperatus all in place, it would require less expenditure of resources to take it over rethaer than create our own. That includes the the time factor.

    Another (few) point(s):
    We are out of time. The R’s move slowly and are timid enough to allow us to sway them. After we rebuild the “R’s”, we can use their majority to dismantle the roadblocks they (and the Dem-Progs) have set in place to keep the field limited to two viable parties. George Washington’s words have proven true, and we must reverse the damage done to our Constitution to alllow us to follow his advice.

    So, unfortunately, we must (w/provisos) support the R’s. McCain & Grabbag Lindsey Graham, for example MUST GO! More so than Snow or the Northern Traitors. These two (McCain & Graham) are the Progressive Leaders within the Repubs. If we cut the head off that snake, we’ll have atleast 2 election cycles while the remaining Progressives within the Repubs fight for control.

    We need the time that the R-Party will buy with their “slowboat-to-hell” to be able to work. That is the only reason I would reverse course & vote LOTE, that is, with an eye to replacing the LOTE-Lout ASAP.

    Dr. Appointment, have to go!
    (How much longer will someone in their 90s still be able to say that? Well maybe the “Got to go”, but with a different meaning…)

    I will remain engaged and fighting up until amnesty passes, then it will be time to stock up and hunker down. Congress will have given away my country. Then it becomes a matter of survival in the new world order. Foreign nationals were never intended to decide our fate as a nation. Amnesty will do exactly that. Swearing in an ineligible man as President makes it possible. It was the PRIMARY purpose of the phrase Natural Born Citizen. The founders rejected native born as insufficient. Too bad we no longer can understand plain English.
