Blatant Democrat Hypocrisy

If you ever needed any proof to demonstrate just how intellectually dishonest and blatantly hypocritical the Democrat Party is, here’s some video you’ll enjoy.

Just a few short years ago, the Dims were all in a twist over the Republicans proposing to approve Judicial nominees with only 51 votes.

For maximum enjoyment, apply these arguments, from these same players, to the current 51 vote proposition for ObamaCare.

From what I’ve been reading today, the nuclear option is a bit different than reconciliation and not only have the democrats been kicking this around for healthcare, they’ve made provisions in the budget to do the same with energy and education.

When Congress passed the budget, it set in place a process to pass health care reform, education reform and climate change legislation. In the House, the budget instructed the Ways and Means Committee and the Energy and Commerce Committee to come up with $1 billion in deficit reductions for health care reform. In the Senate, the budget did the same for the Senate Finance and Health Committee (HELP). If lawmakers can come up with $1 billion in fake savings, they could use reconciliation to pass Obamacare.

However, Mike Solon — former policy advisor to both Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and former Sen. Phil Gramm — identifies a major hurdle for the liberals. Solon argues that it would be very difficult for proponents of Obamacare to navigate “the tight budgetary constraints imposed by the Budget Act, the budget resolution and the Byrd Rule.” He further argues that the biggest obstruction is “the Byrd Rule prohibition that no reconciliation bill can make the deficit worse outside the budgetary window.” This means that any provision in the legislation that’s expected to cost taxpayers, even 10 years down the road, would doom the prospects of passage of the bill. There is only so far that the left can game the system.

Could “the Byrd Rule’ be why Obama’s latest concoction can not be scored by CBO? How can finding a billion dollars worth of cuts in each—healthcare, education, and energy square with the rule?

adding, sorry, I meant climate change instead of energy, sorry.

Climate Change policies is pretty much energy control and starvation, so don’t apologize for nailing it on the head.

The arrogance of these people, this is EXACTLY how the British Empire treated its colonists in the early hours of a revolt that lead to full scale war.

I agree the Democrats are a bunch of lying hipocrites. . . just like the GOP, is it “big tent” or “big government” McRino wants?
