BART GORDON PROMISED A JOB AS NASA ADMINISTRATOR FOR A HEALTHCARE VOTE? Rand Simberg is not a Bart Gordon fan.

If true, this has at least two implications. First, the administration is willing to throw Charlie Bolden under the bus. Second, they’re also willing to throw the new plans for NASA under the bus for health care, because Gordon (who just happens to be the relevant committee chairman) has expressed skepticism about them.

There’s also a rumor that another retiring Tennessee Rep., John Tanner, has been promised a job as Ambassador to NATO. I wonder if Republicans in the Senate will interfere with appointments like this? I’d say so.

Maybe bamacare is a good thing!
Being THE leader of the teaparty I was thinking perhaps we should hope they do get Bamacare past. It will raise such a ruckus that maybe it'll sweep all the progresives out all together. If it does pass we have to use a technique that the very progrssive Rahm Emanuel suggested: "Never Let A Serious Crisis Go To Waste." This will activate many more people into the tea party, and we surely should start working on getting rid of other progressive ways in our government that go back at least a century. This means we have to stay on it. We do have the perfect mechanism for this built into the government (because it is a republic), we just have to keep the right people in it. We have to remember that left leaning progressives lead to communism, while right leaning progrssives lead us to fascism (Nazis). We need to eliminate progressive Ideas from the federal government(i.e. we need to get back to a small central government) For me they would control national defence and a very little interstate commerice. We could not just make those changes 'right now', it took a over a hundred years to get here, it'll probably take even longer to back out of all the damage that was done, plus there will be more resistance from the progressives to get there than they got from the rest of us getting here. It may need several hundred years to succeed, that is the dedecation we need to keep from the slavery they will put us though if we don't stop them. In there fullness both communism and fascism is marked my a lot of mass murder by the government, and a complete breakdown in the end. The Chinese have a creeping capitalism going on, so they may excape the disasterous downfall the Germany and Russia found (Note how many very rich Russians there were when the USSR fell! (so much for the worker's paradise)) The Chinese had their killing splurges before Nixon went over there. After centuries, the Roman empire fell because of their entitlement programs were taking so much money they could no longed defend their borders. We have to make sure our schools teach this because we need them to carry on for us.
