Misdirection -- Business as Usual

The US media, in all the words they used to describe Obama’s “Stimulus Bill,” failed to tell the American people anything of significance about an included provision that will affect the health care of all Americans.  Fortunately Betsy McCaughey of Bloomberg News has written an article that will likely scare anyone who works for a living.  Or one who cares about the future of this country.  The compromise bill as finally approved by the House and Senate runs to over 1,000 pages.  Obama told congress and the American people that this bill was just too important to spend time discussing its finer points and debating the disagreements.  Despite Republican objections, the Democrat majority insisted on an immediate vote.  Never mind Obama’s promises during the election campaign that he would always allow at least 48 hours for public comment, this issue had to be, according to Obama, Pelosi, and Reid, passed and signed immediately for the sake of the country.  How many other provisions do you think are in this travesty?  I mean other than the $8 Billion for a high-speed railroad to bring suckers from Los Angeles to Las Vegas (in Harry Reid’s home state).  Hmmmmm?
