Today, in 1413, Henry V became King of England. Hmmm…interesting considering what we’re facing today on the Hill. Good excuse to revisit this:

Today, in year 37, Caligula became Emperor of Rome. Considering the Democrat majority is planning to pass a bill without actually voting on it, this seems like an important event to note. After centuries, have we really progressed that far?

As it becomes more difficult to round up Congressman willing to end their political careers by voting for ObamaCare, House Democrat Leadership is actually considering a “rule” that will allow the health care bill to pass without being voted on. Putting a positive spin on such a desperate and unconstitutional act defies the laws of physics. Michael Ramirez at Investors Business Daily perfectly captures the “through the looking glass” world we now inhabit:

On Wednesday, President Obama traveled to St. Louis to try to revive his party’s push for government health care. Around 5,000 activists opposed to ObamaCare turned out, dwarfing the few dozen paid organizers from Obama’s Organizing for America. The activists for liberty keep making a difference, while the national GOP is indifferent. Grass roots activists and local radio talk show hosts begged RNC Chairman Michael Steele to get involved, but the RNC rejected their pleas. We guess people writing $25 checks aren’t important. (Even though, Michael, there are millions of them. Maybe your consultants just need to figure out how to take a cut of these small checks to make you guys interested.) Here’s who the national GOP left behind:

Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) has been pressured to resign his seat in Congress, due to allegations of sexual harassment. He have no information about the truth of the charges, but we find it interesting that the Democrat leadership moved so swiftly to push his ouster. Certainly, it has nothing to do with the fact that Massa was a vote against “cap-and-trade” and “ObamaCare.”

Sen. Bob Corker is close to cutting a deal with Sen, Chris Dodd to re-regulate the 5/6ths of the economy that isn’t touched by Obama Care. Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot. (Perhaps this is related to the over $3 million Corker has collected from Big Wall Street Banks. Just saying…) His office number is 202-224-3344.
