DO WE NOT HAVE TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION?

The MAJORITY of the American people said, nay, demanded the Health Care Bill be killed... and yet, one group of politicians forced it through against the direct will of the people.
I believe just as the English did, that what government has no right to demand, we have the right to refuse.

    First I want to let you know I had to change my user name because it came to my attention the "me" was being mimicked by Progessive "ME" and I don't want to be confused with that person.

    Now for your question. Of course it is taxation without representation. I think it is time we look at every tax we discover we pay and band together and try to do something about it.

    We have a congress more interested in making a president happy then in doing the will of the people. THAT amounts to taxation without representation.

    I think if they can make up laws as they choose to suit their wishes, we have the obligation to not follow them at any cost.

    This is correct. Taxation without Representation. This is what we fought against in the very beganing...this is what partly started our independance away from Britain England area. In the early years a group of young men got together and started having meetings and started to throw the tea into the harbor..though i am not sure of the exact details...We are not special interests we are not anyone to be taken lightly We are The People. President Obama you said you would listen to us..You lied. You said to your supporters you would do everything in your power to help them acheive their dreams..you turned this country into a nightmare..You learned nothing from history...keep in mind there is only one Barak Obama and many of us.
    Democrats in Congress-you have a choice you can support your people who put you there in the first place...or you can kiss your vote goodbye...for the next congessional session. This even means you Patty Murray and company. Taxation without Representation is not something you even want to dare to do to My country. This would a real stupid move on your all parts.

    You are correct, but then... Obaba said the "majority" of people want health care, except that more than 57% said they did NOT.

    He either does not know how to add with his shoes on or he is snorting coke again... Perhaps he is just lousy at math and the US... after all, he did say we have 57 states... Yeah.... and some folks just had to have him as POTUS.... I did not...

    The american people were called "special interests" by our president. The congress ignored us and insulted us at every turn. A bill was passed this weekend that at least 55% of us (still a majority unless I am mistaken) DID NOT WANT. And the question was are we without representation? YES!! But that will change come NOV!!

    I believe that what Obama has done should an impeachable offense. I see him as a traitor. To use his words against him...he has the audacity to think that he has the right to ride roughshod over the whole country. He was elected by the people and the people no longer want him as president. He has now made us the laughing stock of the world. Is this really the person that we want in control?
    If this health care bill had been put on the ballot for the whole country to vote on how many of you believe that it would have passed? No doubt in my mind it wouldn't have.
    Oh and thank you Mr. I must be KING! My husband and I are now waiting to see if he will become a part time worker or a laid off worker for the company he has worked 40 years for. They told him in Dec. that if the bill passed they would not be able to afford any new premium increases and not only no raise, but the chance that jobs would be cut. So I really appreciate what you have done for my family and I!!!!!

    Representation? What is that?!

    This is the mentality of our current administration:

    WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama is preparing to sign a transformative health care bill ushering in near-universal medical coverage for the first time in the nation's history — and then hit the road to sell it to a reluctant public.

    Pass it now and let the chips fall where they may! That's the way they've done EVERYTHING! It's time for them all to GO.

    I called my rep today, told his office that I love him and think he has done alot for my city but that I will not be able to vote for him because the democrats do not listen to the people. Also told him that I blame the democrats for Obama because they stole the primaries by giving him all the undecided votes from Michigan.

    The individual purporting to be a nun and I have met many times on many polls. I had her blocked for a time, but then I realized that no nun of God would ever agree to abortion... so she had to be a phony. Personally, I have referred to her in many ways... the last time as a transvestite I think. She does love to come on polls and pretend, but we all know her for who she is.... Then, too, I personally love to play with my food.... referred ways transvestite love poll pretend personally love play food

    These so called representatives that voted against the people should be be treated as traitors. What they did to this great country will come back to slap them in the face 100 times over. Their careers are doomed as well as their after lives.

    good job, my rep did not vote for it, but 10 democrats from Texas voted yes and one democrat voted no. I will be checking the districts they are in and will do what I can to get them voted out in November.
