Ms Pelosi says: "We are moving forward to pass the legislation....it's just a question of HOW we will proceed....this is the opportunity of a generation otherwise there will not be healthcare for all Americans. They (Rebublicans) weren't for Medicare (now broke) Social Security (also near broke) and they are the handmaidens of the insurance companies!" It's time for Ms. Pelosi to STFU! America is voting socialism down!
What, did anyone expect them to actually fold?
Using something foreign to Washington DC...Common Sense...
If this healthcare bill was really good for America, then why is it being compiled and discussed behind closed doors???
Are they afraid the Russians will steal it????
Why is it not televised for the American people to see how good it is???
Are they afraid the Russians might see it and want it???
Anyone with the least bit of common sense will realize that if something is really GOOD for the people, the Congress would put it out 24/7/365 for EVERYONE to see and WANT!!!!!!
But if you have to sneak behind closed doors and do things in the wee hours of the morning to get something through then anyone with the least bit of common sense will realize they are doing something NOT good for America...
VOTE THEIR A**ES OUT IN NOVEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nancy Pelosi isn’t “them”.
“Them” is already beating a hasty retreat.
Pelosi is certifiable....I think she actually does need a mental evaluation...
No kidding...did you see the wild look in her eyes yesterday? Hubby and I both agreed that it was downright scary, she looks insane.
Keep your powder dry, folks.
Actually, it’s her voters who need the mental evaluation.
I hope so. Pushing forward on health care will ensure that Conservatives will win elections for years to come.
I thought maybe this was just the view of the Dem leadership, but even the voters on the Left just don’t get it.
From Democratic Underground:
“Consider this a wake up call. Obama and the Democrats need to start changing course, start going to the left, otherwise they are going to be killed this fall.
Sadly, many pundits and so called experts are trying to spin this defeat as being a call for the Dems to go even further to the right. Let me tell you this, everytime that the Dem party has gone to the right, they haven’t gained more votes in the center or on the right, but rather have lost votes on the left. The largest untapped voting pool out there are the non-voters. Most of these non-voters are liberals and progressives and the only reason that they’re not voting is because they feel that neither party represents their interests. It is time for the party to tack left, show these people, along with the rest of us, that they actually care about the ordinary person. If they do that, they will win victory after victory. But if the party tries to shy right again, they’re going to lose. It’s that simple.”
I guess they forget the lesson of Bill Clinton. He ran as a centrist, and after the Dems got spanked in the mid-term elections, he governed more like a centrist. Consequently, he got re-elected in 1996.
Thank goodness modern Democrats aren’t so savvy (or are hell-bent on ruining the country). Republicans can capitalize on this if they want. Question is, do they want?
In their eyes, the healthcare bill *is* “good” for America. They’re hiding it because they think we’re not smart enough to understand their reasoning, and might stop them (they are, of course, completely right about our intentions; it’s us they’ve completely underestimated).
I can definitely see the “leadersh*t” moving h*ll and high water to get this through: changing any rules (or ignoring any laws they need to) in their desperation to ram this through for a signature. And this democrat leadsh*t IS taking their guidance and from the media and their puppet masters to do anything to ram this through. We saw that already last night: Nobody in democrat power on TV was saying “Stop. This is enough. (Other than Webb.)”
So, assume she needed 220 slaves last time follow the socialist (er, democrat) party the last vote.
130 votes will be in completely safe districts: they won’t CARE what the rest of the nation feels. And some of these 130 are so communist/socialist that they will vote this way because their religion/indoctrination says they “must do it” - regardless of election results
Another 50 or 60 can get bribed (threatenend) to stay with the uber-sociailsts running Washington and the democrat money.)
But she will face 40 democrat realists who KNOW they will be killed politically if they vote this way. Not just the so-called “blue dog” group - though a few will come from a recognized districts like that. But democrats who have been running in races for years, and who KNOW they will get voted out if this gets rammed down the voters’ collective necks.
It’s those 40 or 50 “realists” who she won’t be able to convert to the KoolAid.
Denial personified!
That may be true in theory, but the empirical evidence from yesterday belies the idea of "completely safe districts".
“Pushing forward on health care will ensure that Conservatives will win elections for years to come”
Liberal Massachussetts has already demonsratied this....no need to move forward on Obamacare....the Dems are already toast!
I'll avoid the cosmetic surgery jokes and leave it up to other freepers....
Someone should get rid of this women.
She wants Obamacare? She can have it. All she needs to do is (1) agree not to use her own funds for her health care needs, (2) submit all her medical records to Obama’s health care czar for review, and (3) acquiesce to that czar’s ruling that since she is an unproductive member of society over the age of 60 that she should take the blue pill.
Obamacare ram-through would return the House to the Repubs.
NANCY PELOSI:....”Flip’em the bird and floor it!”

We're going to cram it down their throats whether they like it or not!
Whatever the “peons” get, the pols have to get, too. It’s only *fair*. Since they are the ones always screaming about fairness.
They'll love your cr@p there.
