The Case Against Romney Builds
The Republicans have been desperate for leadership these past 14 months since Obama took office. While the GOP leaders may think former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney is “next in line” to head the 2012 ticket, there’s is a growing awareness among the unwashed barbarians: If Romney is the de facto leader, why isn’t he leading?
It’s been Sarah Palin doing the interviews, writing articles & Tweets, making appearances, taking the grief from the left and MSM. Ditto Paul Ryan and Jim DeMint and Newt Gingrich. But Mitt? He kind of shows up weeks later and says, I’m your man, just tell me where you want me to lead you…
With the passing of Obama’s health care plan, Mitt can’t shake the fact that he was the author of Romneycare – the model for Obamacare that is bankrupting Massachusetts just 4 years after it was launched. (Although, Mitt says the plan is working well, despite the fact that it is costs over $2 billion more than what was budgeted”!)

It Only Costs $940 Billion
If his lips are moving, he’s lying. Obama wants you to believe that his Obamacare plan will save money in the long run so they are pulling numbers out of their ass – when in truth, there is no way to know how much this frankenstein of a bill will finally cost – but it’ll be north of $2.5 trillion when you add in government waste plus fraud.
Here’s the take from Investors Business Daily:
By presenting the CBO with incomplete, inaccurate and misleading data, the Democrats in Congress were finally able to come up with a cost score they like: $940 billion.
That’s the estimate the CBO arrived at. Like a used car dealer pricing a car at $9,999 instead of $10,000, the hucksters in Congress were anxious to get the official cost below the scary $1 trillion level at which things suddenly sound very unaffordable.
Using the rigged $940 billion estimate, Democratic leaders now hope to force a health care bill through as early as Saturday, seizing 17% of the U.S. economy by simply “deeming” the bill is passed — rather than actually passing it in an up-or-down vote.
In fact, the real cost of this health care takeover is more like $2.5 trillion over 10 years — not $940 billion. That’s off by, oh, 166%.
Here’s a better idea: KILL THE BILL. Cost? …. ZERO
Sarah Palin Draws her Sword
It is time to take the final stand against the unconstitutional ObamaCare. On her Facebook page, Sarah Palin writes:
If Senator Reid, Speaker Pelosi, and President Obama get their way, soon our country will be changed forever. Using every partisan parliamentary trick in the book (including some they invented just last week), Washington’s Left intends to ram through their takeover of our health care system regardless of the consequences.
The latest twists and turns in the Obamacare drama seem almost surreal. One minute the Democrat leadership is trying to amend a bill before the president has even signed it into law, and the next minute they’re trying to draft a new rule that will allow the House to “deem” a bill passed without actually voting on it! They’re determined to use the Senate reconciliation process as a parliamentary trick to bypass the regular voting procedure (and by the way, to add insult to injury, they’re now going to ram through federalization of America’s student loan industry with this same reconciliation vote). Is there any other wildly unpopular legislation they’d also like to sneak in? Perhaps the anti-energy-independence policy “Cap and Tax” (aka Cap and Trade) is next?
