I remember Bill Owens being whisked off to Washington for his swearing in before the House vote – even before the NYS Board of Elections certified the election. My, what a difference a few months make. I keep saying they’ll stop at nothing to ram this through. They keep proving I’m right. It’s a thumb in the eye of the American people, but they’re not too worried, they have a plan to get around voter anger. Just find more voters – illegals and felons will do.
Should Scott Brown win the special election to fill the seat of Senator Ted Kennedy, the democrats have let it be known there’s no way in hell he’ll be sworn in before the ObamaCare vote.
The Boston Herald reported:
The longtime aide and confidant of the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who was handpicked by Gov. Deval Patrick after a controversial legal change to hold Kennedy’s seat, vowed to vote for the bill even if Republican state Sen. Scott Brown, who opposes the health-care reform legislation, prevails in a Jan. 19 special election.
[...]
The U.S. Senate ultimately will schedule the swearing-in of Kirk’s successor, but not until the state certifies the election.
Today, a spokesman for Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, who is overseeing the election but did not respond to a call seeking comment, said certification of the Jan. 19 election by the Governor’s Council would take a while.
“Because it’s a federal election,” spokesman Brian McNiff said. “We’d have to wait 10 days for absentee and military ballots to come in.”
Another source told the Herald that Galvin’s office has said the election won’t be certified until Feb. 20 – well after the president’s address. …
And well after a vote on ObamaCare. I wonder if William Gavin is part of the Soros-funded Secretary of State Project?
Scott Brown isn’t happy.
Yesterday, Brown, who has been closing the gap with Coakley in polls and fund raising, blasted the political double standard.
“This is a stunning admission by Paul Kirk and the Beacon Hill political machine,” said Brown in a statement. “Paul Kirk appears to be suggesting that he, Deval Patrick, and (Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid intend to stall the election certification until the health care bill is rammed through Congress, even if that means defying the will of the people of Massachusetts. As we’ve already seen from the backroom deals and kickbacks cut by the Democrats in Washington, they intend to do anything and everything to pass their controversial health care plan. But threatening to ignore the results of a free election and steal this Senate vote from the people of Massachusetts takes their schemes to a whole new level. Martha Coakley should immediately disavow this threat from one of her campaign’s leading supporters.”
Needless to say, Coakley didn’t respond.

Shocker; from those behind closed doors, voter fraud, generational theft, and countless other assaults on America and liberty. Why would we expect anything different from those that are too low to kick and to slimy to step on?

The Dems have been in the castle on the hill too long and are out of touch.
They don’t think the peasants will come calling with torches and pitch forks.
The key is we unseat the Dems in spite of the Repubs who,frankly, aren’t too far away from the Dems. Passive agressive not voting or voting no is NOT the same thing as taking the fight to to other side.

Dems have been waiting to pull off this healthcare scam for over a hundred years. This thing is twenty-five hundred pages of crap that virtually no one has any idea of what’s inside! I think they’re well prepared to lose some of their power if they can ram this monstrosity through. Perhaps there are emmergency clauses therein that could relate to the ’10 and ’12 elections. I’m aftaid it’s the ‘Chicago Way”……

The only thing about this whole fiasco that surprises me is how close the race is. The law providing for the special election was written under the assumption that Jean Francois Kerrie would defeat Bush in 2004, and since that obviously became a non-issue it was mostly forgotten until the Liberal Lion (or was it Lyin’ Liberal?) went off to his final reward last year. Shows that even a few months ago, the Bay State hacks weren’t secure enough to play by the rules that they called for in the first place and decided to play it safe with a hand-picked appointee. So naturally, it comes as no shock that they’d contrive some sort of procedural delay to get their way even if they get their asses handed to them by the voters.

Doesn’t Scott Brown support requiring people by law to obtain health insurance? That’s what the 2006 Massachutts health care law (signed in by Mitt Romney) requires and he says he supports that. All you have to do is check Scott Brown’s own website under Issues
Scott Brown seems like another politician who uses partisanship to get elected. I do not see him as the type to stand on principle if elected.
This kind of reminds me how conservatives were so excited about getting Arnold Schwarzenegger elected Governor in California. Well they aren’t too excited about him now are they?
Conservatives seem to be doomed to repeat history over and over again
