Punishment either way you go!

   Just recently congress, against the majority of the US citizens will, voted for and passed the health care bill. They won by 5 votes an extremely small number. Leading up the the vote Moveon.org  was threatening to punish the democrats who voted against it. They have raised 3 million dollars to back it up. Obviously they have not been paying attention lately. You see in the New Jersey  race the incumbent democratic Governor spent about 3 million and lost. The democrats also spent a lot of money on the races in VA and the republicans celebrated a sweep. Basically what they are finding out is that money does not always buy votes. What the republicans are finding out is that values win. In proverbs 13:24 it says " 24He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes". Now if we love America we will not spare the rod. So if we have the votes they may have the money lets see who wins ;). FYI the whole house is up for election next year i believe! ;) lets do it!!!!!!

  2. No wonder The United States of America has a debt of close to 4 trillion dollars! I never knew they used so much money just to help them win.
