Too bad McClintock, is the only Republican voice to be heard on this. Democrats from the House and Senate and members of the Obama Cabinet gave Calderón a standing ovation. They say it’s better than the finale of Lost. Obama never wanted illegal-immigration to become an issue in this election year. Faced with the issue popping up due to Arizona’s new law he is trying to have it both ways on the issue. He also denounced the Arizona law in a joint appearance with President Felipe Calderón but is now sending 1200 National Guard Troops to the state of Arizona. President Obama’s approval rating at a new low of 42%. Support for repealing the Health Care Bill hits a new high of 63%. And, 72% of American are not sure Congress knows what it is doing when it comes to the economy. Tennessee shows Arizona a little love on the Arizona Illegal-immigration bill. After admitting that he was offered a job by someone in exchange for dropping out of the recent Pennsylvania Democratic Primary he won, Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa) now refuses to give any more info. He say’s, “Anybody else has to decide on what they will say upon …

My Health Drug Firms Lobby Hard to Fight Health Care Reform
May 22nd, 2010
My Health
From NPR’s (National Public Radio) show “All Things Considered” broadcast July 23rd 2009 Drug Firms Pour $40 Million Into Health Care Debate Andrea Seabrook and Peter Overby One of the most powerful players in health care is a group called the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, or PhRMA. It represents just 32 brand-name drug companies, but it has so much influence that when Congress passes a bill, PhRMA almost always gets its way. One big reason why: PhRMA and its members have spent millions of dollars lobbying Congress as lawmakers work to overhaul health care. $40 Million In Lobbying Any firm that spends significant money lobbying Congress has to file a quarterly report. Monday was the deadline for the second quarter, providing a chance to peer into three critical months in the health care debate: April, May and June. That’s when Congress really got down to business with health care. In those three months, PhRMA spent just over $6 million, which breaks down to about $2 million a month. But the reports filed by the companies that belong to PhRMA reveal that during this same period, all but a few of them were running their own lobby shops as well. The drugmaker Pfizer alone spent $5.5 million. Amgen, Eli Lilly and GlaxoSmithKline spent about $3 million each. Add it all up and you get this: In those three critical months, PhRMA and its member companies spent $40 million lobbying Congress. That’s more than $3 million each week. PhRMA declined to speak to …

For more of the show visit www.hardrainshow.com Email us at hardrainshow@gmail.com Speaker Nancy Pelosi says, “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.” It’s just the latest in the endless push for Democrats to control the health care of every American. President Obama now saying he wants the health care bill passed by March 18th. Democrats in the house are already rejecting the deadline saying it can’t be done that fast. Massa Mess. Fans of Hard Rain might remember us talking about this guy in episode 0013. Good riddance. In spite of my fellings on Massa I have no problem believing the story about Rahm Emanuel in the gym shower. That kind of confrontational, aggressive style is exactly why Obama hired him. Surrendering Lindsey Graham (R-SC) helping Obama on two fronts. Closing Guantanamo and Amnesty for Illegal Immigrants.
