Today, House Committee Showed Why You Can Never Believe A Congressman Without Verification
Congressmen lie. Congressmen deceive. Congressmen think the voters in their District are either idiots or too apathetic to notice.
Today's vote on health care for illegal aliens is such a perfect example. The vote was a farce that will be used by many Congressmen to defend themselves against charges that they promote illegal immigration, when in fact their action today just encouraged more of it.
Many Congressmen were stung by the intense phone calls and other outrage from their constituents after they successfully voted on Thursday to kill the "Deal amendment" that would have required verification to keep illegal aliens from getting any new federal health care.
So, they came back today to introduce another amendment that said illegal aliens couldn't get the health care.
HOWEVER . . . .
. . . . the amendment today provided for no verification. And actually reaffirmed other decisions of the last three years to include illegal aliens in various taxpayer-supported benefits.
Our allies in the committee pointed out the deception but the amendment passed on a voice vote.
Expect this to happen:
When you criticize any of the Members who voted against the Deal Amendment, you can expect that they will point to this amendment today that they really did oppose rewards for illegal immigration.
I say in my video blog today that you should never trust anything any Congressman ever says about immigration until you have verified it with NumbersUSA. That is why we keep track of every action every Member takes. Come to our Report Cards and Vote Profiles to check on any claim.
NumbersUSA is running millions of impressions of internet ads in the areas of some of the Congressmen, exposing their role in helping Speaker Pelosi expand the benefits to illegal aliens.

Here is what some of our folks in the medical field think of ObamaCare.
Medical Stimulus Package:
Apparently the American Medical Association has weighed in on the new economic stimulus package….
The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.
The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.
The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception.
The Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body!” while the Pediatricians said, ‘Oh, Grow up!’
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.
Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing.
The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, “This puts a whole new face on the matter.”
The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and the Cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the assholes in Washington...
