The Democratic political machine and the government are one in the same. <BR/><BR/>Just like we saw recently in Congress, there is no real debate in Chicago. Deals are brokered in the back rooms among the ward leaders, the mayor and their cronies. <BR/><BR/>What the political machine decides, the public has to accept it. The city council serves simply as a rubber stamp — much the same way the Congress just acted for Obama. <BR/><BR/>And public money in Chicago is used to protect and serve the interests of the machine. <BR/><BR/>Obama — as I will reveal to you with the stimulus plan — is simply replicating the Chicago machine in Washington. <BR/><BR/>It is a frightening thought because our freedoms depend on a vibrant two-party system. <BR/><BR/>But that's what you believe, not what Obama and his crew believe. <BR/><BR/>Barack Obama and his Chicago gang, which includes his Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, also a congressman from the Chicago machine, have a starkly different view. <BR/><BR/>They want a one-party system headed by a strong man. <BR/><BR/>We at The National Republican Trust PAC are deeply troubled not only by how much the stimulus plan spends but also the way it was implemented. <BR/><BR/>We just witnessed how the basic and open democratic process of our republic was flouted. <BR/><BR/>We fear that the actions by Obama and Congress that we just witnessed threaten the very foundation of our republic. <BR/><BR/>Consider that we have long believed America is the greatest democracy in the world. <BR/><BR/>Yet Congress passed the largest spending bill in its history — by essentially suspending vital democratic processes, including debate and public examination of the pending law. <BR/><BR/>We know that the Democrats, working late into the night, secretly agreed to a “compromise” bill among themselves — and then refused even to share it with Republicans or the public until just hours before the bill went to the floor for a vote. <BR/><BR/>The final stimulus bill was 1,079 pages long. We know Barack Obama never read the bill. <BR/><BR/>Many members of Congress have admitted not one senator or congressman even read the bill before they voted for it! <BR/><BR/>The Democrats say they suspended normal procedures because the country so desperately needed to avoid what Barack Obama said was an economic “catastrophe.” <BR/><BR/>The bill apparently was so urgent that the Democrats even excluded Republican leaders from any involvement in negotiations on it. <BR/><BR/>When, in our republic, does Congress simply vote on a bill when its members have no idea what it says? <BR/><BR/>And, how could congressional leaders like Pelosi and Reid, as well as President Obama, present a monumental law but not allow even one day of scrutiny by Congress, its staffs or the public? <BR/><BR/>CHICSGO SOUNDS ALOT LIKE NEW BRITAIN, EXCEPT FOR ONE THING: TIM STEWART. WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE A MAYOR WHO STANDS IN THE WAY OF THIS CROOKED DEMOCRATIC MACHINE.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3998984924862826616.post-59497414843272360622009-02-21T13:24:00.000-05:002009-02-21T13:24:00.000-05:00How dare this reporter speak againse the socialist...How dare this reporter speak againse the socialist regime!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
