Will Harry Reid Pull a "Bait and Switch" on the American People and The Constitution ?????

From The American Thinker via The Western Rifle Shooters

"Watching the Constitution Disappear"
"A senior aide to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told CNSNews.com that it is "likely" that Reid will use H.R. 1586-a bill passed by the House in March to impose a 90-percent tax on bonuses paid to employees of certain bailed-out financial institutions-as a "shell" for enacting the final version of the Senate's health care bill, which Reid is responsible for crafting.

Under the procedure, the substance of House Resolution 1586 would be removed and replaced with the entire Senate health care package."


If you haven't heard about this yet and probably haven't since the media fails to report this kinda crap, you should read the entire article.
It's not long so go read it.

The quick and dirty is this - Reid is contemplating taking a bill that has already passed the House (HR 1586) that has nothing to do with anything related to health care, completely removing the content of that bill and replacing it with his version of a national health care plan.

Then it can be pushed through the Senate if he can get 60 Senatorial AssMunchers to manipulate procedures and rules and be sent straight to a vote and then to the presidents desk for signing.

No debate.
No one gets to see it.
Down, Dirty and Done.

It really is a shell game as they take the original bill and leave only the shell before they fill it up with something else and ram it through the Senate and straight up our asses.

I may be wrong about this, but that doesn't sound like Representative Republic to me. Howzabout you?

No, I didn't think so.

It sounds more like a declaration of war against both, the Republic and the American People.

This is so wrong an idea I find it hard to believe that Reid or anyone else could seriously entertain this.

And I'll make a prediction here.

If Reid follows through and stuffs this health care bill through on the sly like this, he won't have to worry about being reelected.
He'll be a dead man walking because someone will put a bullet in him.
Right, wrong or otherwise someone will reach their saturation point, line in the sand or whatever you want to call it and dink his ass.

And G-d only knows what the hell will happen from there. Once shit like that starts there's no telling where it will go.

So let's hope this doesn't materialize or go through. Better for everyone.
