What does the future have in store for us, my fellow prognosticators?
Will Hellcare pass?
What about Crap & Trade?
How many Blue Fraud Democrats will commit political suicide by supporting Hellcare?
One thing I foresee is the Communists suffering the worst mid term losses in modern electoral history in 2010
What do you think?

“How many Blue Fraud Democrats will commit political suicide by supporting Hellcare?”
—
Enough, a couple of rino’s too boot.
“Will Hellcare pass?”
–
Yup, and like I said in the past just not the bill that was previously offered.
“What about Crap & Trade?”
—
DOA for the time being.

I agree with KnightHawk. Obama and the Dems wanted the whole HellCare package…but they’ll pass something that lets them “remodel” it later.
We need to replace any and all RINOs who go along…and any and all “Blue Dogs” as well. I’ve stopped answering calls from the National Republican committees (Senate, House, general). I will specifically support only those I want to retain, or the opponents of those I want to get voted out!

Will Hellcare pass? Yes
What about Crap & Trade? No
How many Blue Fraud Democrats will commit political suicide by supporting Hellcare? 15
One thing I foresee is the Communists suffering the worst mid term losses in modern electoral history in 2010. Don’t bet the ranch. The GOP can screw up a one-car fun eral.
What do you think?

I’m still intrigued by the burning desire of the media to low-ball crowd estimates from yesterdays march.
The Ronald Reagan Building is seen in the traffic cam photo labeled: “14th and E St NW)”. The other end of the photo is where the main stage was: the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial!!
The Walking directions to Ulysses S. Grant Memorial from the Ronald Reagan Building are:
Walking directions to Ulysses S. Grant Memorial 1.1 mi
(1) Head north on 13 1/2 St NW toward Pennsylvania Ave NW
194 ft
(2) Turn right at Pennsylvania Ave NW
1.0 mi
(3) At the traffic circle, take the 1st exit onto E Capitol Circle
Destination will be on the right
318 ft
I decided I wanted to know exactly how much distance the photo covered…1.1 miles. Look at the density of the people in the photo, and consider that they MORE than fill the route, since more continue to enter the starting point, as thousands arrive at the other end!

fun with Excel:
The Ronald Reagan Building is seen in the traffic cam photo labeled: “14th and E St NW)”. The other end of the photo is where the main stage was: the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial.
The walking directions to the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial from the Ronald Reagan Building total just over 1.1 miles.
The crowd continues to enter the starting point of the march long after many have reached the destination…and they FILL the distance of 1.1 miles at a density of over 4 people for every 10 square feet (the accepted norm for crowd estimating). Considering the route is well over 70 feet wide the entire way, you get more than 40,600 “4 person bubbles” on that route at any given time.
OVER 160,000 at any moment…and they move thru that distance for a LONG time, completly covering it! And that doesn’t count those who came directly to the Grant Memorial from every other direction.
Any estimate below 500,000 is bullshit

I try not to quote World Nut Daily, but they ran a really good article about the march here:

No cap and trade- for now.
A form of hellcare passes that has blank placeholders for use at a later time.

Have some fun with this photo taken from the Obama inauguration, if we could get an aerial shot from yesterday for a numbers comparison, it would be great!

Norman Borlaug: The Man (and American) Who Saved More Human Lives Than Any Other Has Died
Norman Borlaug, the man who saved more human lives than anyone else in history, has died at age 95. Borlaug was the Father of the Green Revolution, the dramatic improvement in agricultural productivity that swept the globe in the 1960s. For spearheading this achievement, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970.
A very interesting read about a man and American I hadn’t heard of before. It’s people like this who made this country the greatest in history.

as I just pointed out to Mrs. Justrand, to find the starting location for the march yesterday in Mary’s picture you would need to have a WIDER PHOTO!!
