Oooh, I think that's a fine for you!

Oh my! Apparently, lawmakers are a bit flummoxed by their own handiwork:
The law apparently bars members of Congress from the federal employees health program, on the assumption that lawmakers should join many of their constituents in getting coverage through new state-based markets known as insurance exchanges.
Well, since those insurance exchanges do not yet exist, that leaves them without an insurance plan. *gasp!* What?!
(Maybe a "Read the Bill" piece of legislation should have passed BEFORE the healthcare vote?) These are the folks who kept telling their constituents at Town Hall meetings across the country during their August recess that they knew what was best for us?!

When John Yarmuth, Louisville's Congressman (District 3), held a Town Hall for doctors only during the August recess, he told them that he knew they didn't want the legislation but he was going to vote for what he thought was best. I suppose he was right. Trust fund babies ALWAYS know what's best for everyone else, don't they? Well, John, I personally hope you get fined for being without a healthcare plan.

It's time to bring 'em all home, folks. Obviously, they care more for their party than they do for their constituents. It's time for them to GOOOH!

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste
