This week Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) was paid $300 million for her vote for Obamacare by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
To show her gratitude Senator Landrieu will hold a fundraiser for Harry Reid next month.

    HA! Who would go to this fundraiser besides these two corruptocrats?

    I see it’s business as usual for the Left: steal money that you never worked for from others – and then distribute that money as you see fit. Best to see to it that you, the Leftist & thief, especially benefits from use of that money.

    Meanwhile, while home on the range, Mr. Leftist should wisely continue to generate and execute acts of fraud specifically to keep the chronic hoodwinking mechanism well-greased & in full operation mode. If the machinery is always up and running, then Mr. Leftist can expect to more easily perpetuate the frauds he has in the works while also guaranteeing his continued ability to bamboozle and/or scam the electorate (especially his own supporters) into believing all of Mr. Leftist’s frauds and even the biggest fraud of all: that the supporters of Mr. Leftist must RE-ELECT him in order keep facilitating the fraud! Yeah, that’s right!

    And THAT is a day in the life of the noble Mr. Leftist!

    I’m sure Harry Reid – or any of them – would recognize this “day in the life.”

    They don’t care anymore and are out in the open.

    We should return the favor in kind.

    I’ll start…….. slowly…….

    I have to go to the range for a bit more practice. Back later.

    It is apparent that Congress is using the U. S. Treasury as a private piggy bank. The only answer is to vote each and every one of these bast..ds out of office, and then institute term limits on both houses. Two terms in the Senate, six terms in the house, and then “out of politics”.

    Reid doesn’t have a chance in Baghdad of being re-elected.

    A teaparty should surround the “fundraiser,” which is really funded with OUR funds.

    Unless I am missing something, there are:

    From Wikipedia:
    Bribery constitutes a crime and is defined by Black’s Law Dictionary as the offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting of any item of value to influence the actions of an official or other person in discharge of a public or legal duty. The bribe is the gift bestowed to influence the recipient’s conduct. It may be any money, good, right in action, property, preferment, privilege, emolument, object of value, advantage, or merely a promise or undertaking to induce or influence the action, vote, or influence of a person in an official or public capacity.

    Friend Mary Landreiu should see tea parties in her front yard, from retirees who will loose medicare benefits, handicapped folks who will have their appliances taxed, good middle class workers who will have their company insurance taxed, Doctors that will be paid less, Women with a breast cancer history that will be denied diagnostic evaluations, and folks who choose between food and insurance risking going to jail. Mary Landriu should be asked to show how much of the 100 mill payoff will be taken away from the louisana citizens by the health care bill itself. Post office, Amtrac, Medicare, homeland security are all businesses that the fed govt does a poor job managing. Don’t give them health care also. Ask her to commit to dropping her senate rich package and using what is being proposed.

    You know, I’m really sick and tired of hearing Democrats talk about corruption in the Afghan and Iraq governments.

    Aren’t you?

    Compliments of the Democratic Party, we have massive corruption in our own government. Whether stashing hundreds of thousands in bribe money in a personal freezer and getting a police escort to retrieve the illegal money as Louisianans drowned, or the tax evasion of top ranking members like Charlie Rangel and our very own Sec of the Treasury Tim Giethner (and the list goes on and on), the Dems have NO room to pontificate.

    Now they cut sweetheart deals using OUR health care, OUR future health, as their leverage.

    Sick.

    We need to stand up and not sit here and take this anymore. It’s time for some torches and late night protests outside the Congress and Senate. At the very least, we need to bombard our representatives while they enjoy their Thanksgiving breaks back in their districts, the ones who are brave enough to not take some out of the country vacation.

    Hah!
    That’s an excellent point, the nerve of Democrats to sniff all piously and superior at Afghan politics, while openly acting like pigs busted thru the fence filling themselves at someone else’s trough.

    ANd Katrina is another phony crisis/blame game. Mayor Nagin and then Gov Blanco should be in prison for gross negligence and dereliction of duty and whatever else for the deaths of hundreds of New Orleans citizens.
    They had over a WEEK to get ready, PLUS an EMERGENCY MANUAL that not only predicted the effects and aftereffects of a direct hit, it even gave step-by-step instructions on how to evacuate, prepare and do all the necessary to get the vunerable out of the way.
    lLl they had to do to implement a standing protocol for a CAT 4-5 hurricane was to declare “EMERGENCY” status, designating all sorts of protocols to be implemented.
    Nope.
    Blaming Bush is a deliberate strategy to deflect blame from the mayor and governor, protecting them from scrutiny and prosecution.

    The media gave a hint of how this was going to be played when they shamelessly reported reports of “cannibalism” amongst “desperate” residents.

    Right. 24 hours since the last Doritos bag of nachos was looted from the corner 7-11 and they’re chomping on people’s bones. What, run out of salsa dip?

    0bama:

    What’s wrong with using the taxpayer’s money to bribe my friends in the Senate? I got away with it all the time in Chicago.

    Now, I will have control over the stupid taxpayer’s medical affairs. I cannot wait to sift through their medical records to find waste – like useless old People and Retards.

    I would recommend that you write you senator a congratulatory email and give them your opinion. Even if you just want to give them your opinion it is easy. Just go to:

    http://www.senate.gov/

    Click the pull down menu of the left Pick a Senator, find his office, then fill out the email form with an address one block away from his – same for the telephone numbers. They would be happy to hear from you.

    I am happy. The taxpayer’s got screwed and my second term in office is a slam-dunk. It’s time for new stretch limousines for all 60 donkey senators.

    Here are senators that required exceptionally large bribes: Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas and Evan Bayh of Indiana. Leave them an e-mail. They will love it.

    I have not forgotten about George Soros. I will give him helpful tips on both the Federal Reserves actions and the Treasury’s sale of bonds so he can front run them.

    Well, my take takeover of the economy is almost complete. Now, it is time to have the IRS audit all of the republicans. Up yours, you stupid taxpayers. Good day.

    Great comment #7.

    I’ve emailed the tea party activists in LA. Hope they can infiltrate the party. Heard back from one of them. Unfortunately, they are stuck with her until 2014.

    Cheers to the Dems! Hope you are in for some fun from the right….

    Increasingly and regrettably, the solution implied in comment #4 may be the only way to halt this attack on the foundations of this nation. As much as I disagree with Joe Lieberman on many issues, he may well be the last liberal with any principles. Certainly it seems the time has come to remove the rest from any position where they can affect the lives of the American people and I suspect we may not afford to wait until next November to do this. Should this band of harlots next force any version of ‘cap & trade’ down our throats in defiance of the clear evidence recently revealed it was naught but a cynically mercenary conspiracy, then I would stop suspecting.
