Time to Shut Down Government Until January 5, 2011!

By John W. Lillpop

By dumping a $1.1 trillion Omnibus bill on the Senate in the final days of the 111th Congress, Harry Reid and fellow Marxists have shown utter and complete contempt for the American people and the results of the November 2 elections.

Omnibus is vile piece of proposed funding for government set forth in more than 1,900 pages, which no one has read because the monster was released just days ago.

Asking members to vote on legislation that Senators have not read and which, given the late hour, will not be able to debate, sounds eerily like the sort of reckless stupidity that caused the American people to trash nearly 70 Democrats just 40-something days ago!

To add insult to injury, Omnibus contains more than 6,000 ear marks, which come with a price tag of $8 billion—billable to taxpayers.

Hmmm. 40-something days ago, did not the people say “Read Our Lips—No More Earmarks!â€
