Just read on the Twitter from Speaker Tillis that Governor Perdue will stand for the Constitution against Republican subversion.

I received word last night that the Governor will VETO the "Protect Health Care Freedom Act" we passed last week. The Gov wants Obamacare to be imposed on North Carolina. What do you think? Post a comment and send the Gov an email to [e-mail]. If you don't mind, copy me at [e-mail].

I don't know about you, but I'm with the Governor. Tillis knows his piece of crap legislation is explicitly in violation of the North Carolina Constitution, and yet he's still grandstanding."

Here is the link to the Puke's facebook page. I threw up in my mouth a bit when I read the other crap this guy's up to...

"Thom Tillis, North Carolina House of Representatives

If I lived in NC I'd send Rep. Tillis a little comment of my own...

Hooray for Gov. Perdue of North Carolina! Show these thug Republicans that we Democrats have backbone and will stand and fight them wherever and whenever they try to harm the people of this nation!

Here's what the Charlotte Observer said back on Feb. 28th: Perdue should veto opting out of health care reform

"Republicans in the General Assembly, full of oats and feeling them with their first control of both houses in more than a century, couldn't wait to take a slap at President Obama by opting North Carolina out of some provisions of federal health care reform.

So they passed a law to that effect using all the free-market positions that congressional Republicans used in their unsuccessful fight to stop the president from trying to ensure that all Americans have access to quality health care. The reform concept has public support even if people have been confused by the law's complexity, and by the cynical and inflammatory points raised against it.

...snip...

Gov. Beverly Perdue also thinks the GOP maneuver is wrong. So why is the governor indicating that while she'll not sign the legislation, she won't veto it either?

That means it will become law in 10 days, absent her Hancock."
