What's Your Problem

The more you know about CONgressman Bruce Braley and Obamacare, the more repulsive each becomes.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

MiniCommie, the Senatorial wannabe, told Iowans ObamaCare would “allow Americans to maintain their choice of health insurance.”

Except for those Americans whose policies are being cancelled.

With Dummycrats, "choice" means the end of something, whether it's the life of the unborn or the healthcare you like and can afford.

Back to Braley -- A lot of the policies that are being terminated have to do with very basic forms of coverage that don’t provide the type of benefits that most Americans need in the basic health insurance plan.

Are they?

Forbes: White House Predicted in 2010 That 93 Million Would Lose Their Health Plans Under ObamaCare

A vast amount of those are employer-sponsored plans and House Democrats, like Braley, knew all along that was going to be the case.

Iowa's Attorney General, Tom Miller, warns of potential health insurance fraud, but he really should be warning about the fraud of Obamacare and the Dummycrats that drove it down our throats and up our bums.

Back to Braley -- Once cannot believe much of what he brought us.

In 2009, on the House floor -- Iowa Democrat says families spend $13,000 a year for health coverage

That turned out to be FALSE.

Thanks to Braley, the Crown Prince of the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save (CARS) Act, better known as Cash for Clunkers, the nearly $3 billion program approved by Congress in 2009 did little to boost the environment and created few jobs

Send him home, not to the Senate!

Parasitic Twins

Following the career path of his idol, CommieTommie Harkin, CONgressman Bruce Braley is on his way to become MiniCommie.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Braley, recently commenting on President Obama's budget proposals, stated -- I think that a budget is a moral document.

He must have heard Harkin, who a month earlier was commenting on the Senate's first budget in four years, saying -- A budget is a moral document.

Iowa State graduates, lawyers and CONgressmen.

They are clones, with one exception.

Braley has outdone Harkin in ratings from the American Conservative Union, Braley has a 0 rating and CommieTommie came in with a big ol' 4.

That shows you how bad Braley is.

Hell, Nancy Pelosi even got a 4.

Schmuck

CONgressman Bruce Braley comes across looking like a schlemiel over recent comments.

Braley weighed in on the trial of Agriprocessors plant manager Sholom Rubashkin, who was found guilty on 86 felony financial fraud charges.

The CONgressman said the conviction was an important step forward for the nation's broken immigration system.

Braley says the federal government cannot allow employers to break the law and take advantage of cheap labor.

WHAT?!?!

That's not what this trial was about Mr. Trial Lawyer and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Rubashkin was scheduled to go on trial December 2 regarding immigration charges, but now the government has dismissed all immigration charges against against him.

In another revolting development, Braley (and all Iowa Dummycrats) voted no on a House Resolution against bringing detainees at Guantanamo Bay to the U.S.

Now the CONgressman says Don’t politicize debate over location of terror suspects.

You and the President already have, PUTZ!

Games People Play

Saying “It’s time to quit playing games and get it done” CONgressman Bruce Braley (Dummycrat Iowa) weighed in on the interest rates for college students with Direct Stafford Loans.

Iowa's Senior Senator, Charles Grassley, thinks the opposite, “It’s going to get discussed and resolved”.

Grassley likes the House plan, which calls for redirecting the profit on student loans back to the student loan program. Those funds were diverted by the then-Democrat-controlled Congress to fund part of the health care reform plan.

“Take it back out of ObamaCare and use it for what it ought to be used for,” Grassley said. “Profit on student loans ought to be used to keep student loans inexpensive.”

That makes sense, which makes Dummycrats like Braley look like the ones playing games and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Braley also bemoaned people being elected to pursue “rigid, ideological objectives and they don’t think compromise is part of what’s expected of them here in Washington.”

It should be noted that on that exact same day, Braley voted along party lines against contempt charges for Attorney General Eric Holder over the Operation Fast and Furious gunwalking scandal.

Huh?

In perusing my usual online periodicals, I became stumped by a couple of articles.

Regarding an upcoming visit from Dummycrat Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill, the Cedar Rapids Gazette stated McCaskill is the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate from Missouri in her own right.

McCaskill is the only woman Missouri has elected to the U.S. Senate, as the only other woman (Jean Carnahan) was appointed.

From the western side of the state, Report-err Bret Hayworth, in his Policitally Speaking blog for the Sioux City Journal noted -- Two Democratic candidates running statewide campaigns will hold metro area events Thursday.

In explaining a visit by CONgressman Bruce Braley, Hayworth gives MiniCommie's schedule --

In the afternoon at 4:45 p.m., U.S. Rep. Bruce Braley, D-Iowa, a 2014 U.S. Senate candidate, will visit Western Iowa Tech Community College in Sioux City.

4:45 p.m. is always in the afternoon and the scientific community is united in that fact

Hayworth continued --

Braley will also meet later Thursday evening with Democratic activists in the city.

Braley has campaigned a few times in the city since summer. In late October, he held his annual Bruce Blues & BBQ fundraiser at the Iowa State Fairgrounds.

When did the Iowa State Fairgrounds move to the Sioux City metro?

Rocket Juice?

I tried watching the Congressional hearings on whether Roger Clemens used steroids or HGH.

I'm always embarrassed for our country when I see these people try and trap(?) a witness before them.

Most of these people are lawyers by profession, but as lawyers they make great CONgressman and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Iowa Dummycrat Bruce Braley got to question the Rocket about his use of B12 & lidocaine.

Braley said...

the B12 injections weren’t appropriate for Clemens because he didn’t meet certain conditions, such as having anemia.

I guess the CONgressman only plays a doctor on TV, because I've heard of athletes taking B12 vitamin shots for years.

Even the National Institute of Health (NIH) mentions that a deficiency in B12 may be great than previously thought.

Braley also told reporters...

...the inappropriate use of such substances opens the door to abusing human growth hormones and steroids.

Braley also believes that mother's milk leads to heroin.

What sunk Clemens in my eyes was the fact that his wife (Debbie) had Clemens' trainer (Brian McNamee) inject her with HGH, without Roger's knowledge (?)

Looking For A Job

Reelected to his job last November, CONgressman Bruce Braley took the oath of office this month stating that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter.

Braley claims to take that oath very seriously, but was able to skip work to be in Des Moines to meet privately with Democrats in the Iowa House and Senate about running for the seat occupied by CommieTommie Harkin.

Today, Braley is back in D.C. to meet with two top Democratic leaders, Harry Reid and Michael Bennet (chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee) about a possible candidacy for U.S. Senate.

At least now he's in the same city as his current job and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Now he just needs to figure out if his March NCAA basketball tournament “Sweet 16” and “Elite 8” $5,000 double-header package is for his current job or the new one he'll be seeking.

Stranger Than Fiction?

When I blogged Recession Buster on April 1, it was meant as a joke.

The Obama administration is set to announce a patriotic retirement option for those 50+.

The plan pays the 40 Million Americans in that age group $1 Million, but requires the following:

1) Immediate retirement, thereby creating 40 million job openings -- Unemployment fixed.

2) They buy NEW American cars. Forty million cars ordered - Auto Industry fixed.

3) They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis fixed.

Since then I've seen variations on a couple of those ideas.

The site Save Our Economy offers their Nine point Economic Stimulus and Recovery Plan that includes a One-Year Mortgage Holiday.

The price tag for their plan is approximately $1 trillion in addition to the $700 billion already approved.

The joke idea cost only $40 Million.

Now I read that Iowa Dummycrat CONgressman Bruce Braley offers the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save (CARS) Act.

Braley's legislation aims to get vehicles made prior to 2000 off the road with owners trading it in at your local dealership and receive a credit - ranging from $3,000 to $5,000 - to purchase a new car or truck.

Braley doesn't offer a total dollar figure for his plan, but does appropriate such sums as may be necessary to the Secretary of Transportation to enable the Secretary to carry out the Program.

You know with that government speak a ton of cash would be appropriate and the scientific community is united in that fact.

The $40 Million joke still sounds like the best plan yet!

Not Guilty?

CONgressman Bruce Braley's boy was arrested for first-offense possession of marijuana and carrying a weapon and possession or purchase of alcohol by a minor (he's 19).

Braley the younger denied ownership of the marijuana and said he carries a knife for protection.

Can you say paranoia?

Using marijuana seems to increase the chance of becoming psychotic and even infrequent use could raise the small but real risk of this serious mental illness by 40 percent.

Braley the younger has pleaded not guilty, even though he admitted the knife was his.

The CONgressman released a statement -- "Carolyn and I raised our children to know that actions have consequences. Our son knows how disappointed we are, but he also knows how much we love him and care about his future."

Sounds like daddy, a lawyer, thinks he's guilty and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Maybe the CONgressman should have been less concerned with Roger Clemens steroid use (Rocket Juice?) and more concerned about what went on in his own family.

That's Where You're Wrong

In a story about the National Republican Senatorial Committee ad campaign against CONgressman Bruce Braley, The Washington Times states --

Mr. Braley has served in Congress since 2007 and is seeking reelection

BUZZ--WRONG!

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Everyone, in the press, should know that Braley is running for the U.S. Senate to replace CommieTommie Harkin

Count To Ten?

A campaign appearance at the Iowa Veterans Home by CONgressman Bruce Braley featured a crowd of less than 10.

That's hardly a crowd, it's not even a gathering!

Braley has more signs than attendees and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Maybe the Veterans are still pissed that Braley was a no show for a scheduled Memorial Day speech in 2011.

Farewell To The Fairground

MiniCommie got into a battle with FormerlyFunnyCommie Al Franken about which state has the better fair.

Franken found 13 reasons the Minnesota State Fair is the best.

Among them --

Dairy princesses carved in butter...That's creepy on so many levels.

The tradition, including one Minnesotan who's gone for 75 years in a row, even though the fair was canceled for two of those years...I thought Iowans were supposed to be Idiots Out Walking Around.

Fish pond...Are you sure that's not Lake 10,001?

We make history, Teddy Roosevelt said "speak softly and carry a big stick"...He actually used the phrase a year earlier (January,26 1900).

Bruce Braley responded with 18 reasons supporting the Iowa State Fair.

Including --

The Butter Cow...People would be less impressed if they realized it's built on an armature made of wood and chicken wire.

Braley went on to praise the Butter Cow's friends and security.

EPIC FAIL

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

In a trip to Sioux City, the CONgressman denied he's a big government liberal.

HA!

Report-err Bret Hayworth, in his Policitally Speaking blog for the Sioux City Journal, said Braley's message will include appeals to Democrats, along with noting that he worked across the aisle to have bills enacted into law when Democrats were a minority in the House, meaning that the measures passed due to some Republican support.

But Bret, Democrats are still in the minority in the House.

Oh no he didn't!

Here's more from Iowa Dummycrat Bruce Braley's questioning of Roger Clemens...

Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa): Have you ever been a vegan?
Roger Clemens: A what?
Braley: A vegan.
Clemens: I dunno what that is.

Where was Dennis KOOKcinich when you needed him, he sits on that committee.

I'm from the Ron White school regarding vegan's...

"I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to eat carrots".

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Patriot?

I only read the Dummycrat responses to a question, posed by the Ragister, to Iowa's Congressional delegation and challengers.

How do you demonstrate patriotism?

The Merriam-Webster online Dictionary defines Patriotism as: love for or devotion to one's country.

From CommieTommie Harkin came --

Members of Congress demonstrate patriotism when we put country ahead of party. For me, this means advancing bipartisan legislation to make America a better, fairer nation — for example, the Americans with Disabilities Act, signed into law 22 years ago this month.

1990 was the last time Harkin put country ahead of party, probably because he was seeking re-election to his second Senate term and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Per CONgressman Bruce Braley -- I took an oath 29 years ago (as a lawyer) to support and defend the Constitution, and have taken a similar oath three times as a congressman. I take that oath very seriously, and I don’t allow political pressure to determine how I vote. Doing what’s right isn’t always popular; and doing what’s popular isn’t always right. To me, a true patriot stands up for all the principles in the Constitution, not just those that are popular or politically convenient.

Sounds like a lawyer.

It sounds like Braley doesn't support or defend the immigration laws of this country, saying to a gathering in Marshalltown -- tax payers would likely be shocked by how much money the federal government spends deporting and detaining immigrants. Situations like the 2008 Postville raid, where federal agents arrested 389 undocumented workers and detained them, cost tax payers millions of dollars and do little to address the issue of immigration.

"Everyday in this county, people are charged with crimes. They go to court. They are given due process. They plead guilty. They pay a fine. They are on probation. And if they satisfy the terms of their probation, their records are expunged, and they are able to go back to their community without any long-term consequences," Braley said. "We can come up with similar solutions to immigration

For Leonard BOZO-well -- When I enter the Capitol to vote, I think how fortunate I am to have realized the American dream. The way I express my patriotism today is by working to make sure my dream is still a possibility for our children and grandchildren.

BOZO-well's dream is our nightmare.

CONgressional candidate Christie Vilsack -- One of the most important things a member of Congress can do is honor the patriots who have served their country... As a member of Congress I will make it a priority to honor the flag of the United States by honoring those willing to put their lives on the line to protect our liberty.

The only time most veterans were seen ducking, was was while taking fire.

Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism - George Washington.

Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it - Mark Twain.

A politician will do anything to keep his job, even become a patriot - William Randolph Hearst

It's The Same Old Song

Taking another page out of the CommieTommie Harkin playbook, CONgressman Bruce Braley is trying to score points and scare seniors by saying -- a shutdown of the federal government would mean people would not be getting their Social Security benefits , it would mean they might not have access to VA care and a host of other federal programs

Exactly why I call him MiniCommie, and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Having been down the Social Security road before with Harkin, here are the facts --

Social Security checks would still go out. Troops would remain at their posts.

And virtually every essential government agency, like the FBI, the Border Patrol and the Coast Guard, would remain open.

The air traffic control system, food inspection, Medicare, veterans' health care and many other essential government programs would run as usual. The Social Security Administration would not only send out benefits but would continue to take applications. The Postal Service, which is self-funded, would keep delivering the mail. Federal courts would remain open.

Back to Braley --

A reporter pointed out that there hasn’t been a delay in people getting Social Security checks in the past under a shutdown.

WOW!

Color me stunned.

Braley says it’s a matter of semantics as it would impact the people who are newly enrolled in Social Security. “If one American citizen is denied a benefit they are eligible for, that’s something that should concern congress

IF.

Sounds like a politician/lawyer.

It's also similar to -- It depends on what the meaning of the word IS is.

Racist Congressman?

Braley: In plain English, please

Iowa Dummycrat Representative Bruce Braley has introduced a law calling for the government to use plain language that the average American can understand.

Which average American?

The bill asks agencies to overhaul documents to use clear, concise and well-organized language.

The English language?

Sounds racist to me and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Please note in the linked article the Courier's staff writer calls the Congressman BILL.

The Tears Of A Clown

Showing all the compassion of a lawyer, and the scientific community is united in that fact, Bruce Braley deleted and apologized(?) for a ‘trail of tears’ tweet.

The Dummycrat compared the feelings of some fans following the Iowa State Cyclones Men's Basketball team's NCAA tournament loss to the forced relocation many American Indian tribes.

Braley took no ownership when he tweeted -- I have removed the tweet & apologize to anyone who was offended.

If no one was offended, you wouldn't have deleted the tweet and posted this lame ass apology CONgressman.
