Yesterday, thankfully, the House did not muster the votes to override the President's veto of the SCHIP (Socialist Clinton Hillary-care for Illegals and Parents as one caller told a talk radio host yesterday) program. This socialized healthcare sheep-in-wolves-clothing bill would have given health care to children from families who should otherwise be able to afford it, thereby increasing the tax need for our already overtaxing government. There has been much rhetoric in this fight, as well.
While Democrats have been calling the President, and other Republicans brave enough to fight for taxpayers, all sorts of name and spreading all sorts of lies, Rep. Pete Stark (D-CA) took it to a whole new level. The comments he made from the House floor yesterday went beyond rhetoric to the completely moronic. He need to be called on the carpet for such stupid comments.
The comment I found most interesting was his line about children growing old enough to be sent to Iraq. "[I]f we can get enough kids to grow old enough for you to send to Iraq to get their heads blown off for the president's amusement." This coming from someone who is a member of a party who has supported the killing of more than 40 million children and violently defends a procedure called, "partial-birth abortion", in which a child is nearly fully delivered, only to have its brains suctioned out while only the head remains in the birth canal. Someone in a party that has defended such procedures so that people do not have to take responsibility for their reckless behaviors, enabling them to be driven by their lusts rather than common sense, has no room making this kind of statement. It's hypocrisy of the highest order.
Yet, Democrats have no moral foundation, so they feel they can make such ridiculous statements and no one can say anything about it. Their sheer disdain for actual morals has clouded their judgment on all things. I hope they will not get away with it this time, but it seems the mainstream media is giving him a full pass, as usual.
