Nancy Pelosi unveiled an $80 Billion Jobs Bill today that is intended to extend jobless benefits and more infrastructure projects.
President Obama called for Bipartisanship on this bill. The President also reached out for a bipartisan effort on the health care reform. Why does he want bipartisanship now? The obvious answer is because of Scott Brown's election victory and subsequent confirmation as a U.S. Senator. However, Scott Brown's victory is but only a small part of a much larger equation.
Bipartisanship means both Democrats and Republicans working together to come to some common ground on these two very important matters. The problem is that the majority of Americans have clearly stated that they do not want either. That being said, bipartisanship is exactly the opposite of what Americans want. If the debate is shifted from being a simple "do or don't" argument to a "look how we're coming together" argument, the President and other party progressives believe that they'll be able to continue with their agenda.
The Scott Brown victory certainly threw a monkey-wrench into the progressive agenda but as you can see, it did not stop it. The victory merely slowed it down. The agenda will only be broken down into smaller segments and pushed in smaller increments while we all sit idly back and applaud the Democrats and Republicans working together.
Contact your representatives and let them know that bipartisanship is NOT what Americans want. Americans want the federal government to get out of trying to run their lives. Americans do NOT want more social programs and more big government and more debt.
Contact your representatives and remind them that you do not want them to go to the table and debate a matter that is not debatable simply because they were invited. Do not fall for the typical rhetoric and double-speak. Read between the lines. President Obama has already clearly stated that he will not stop pushing for health care. The President has telegraphed his next move, let's stop him before he takes another step.
Lastly, be upset. Be upset that after such a clear message has been sent, the President still refuses to hear you. Moreover, the President simply believes that you're wrong.
