In response to Obama's delayed trip to Indonesia, Nancy Pelosi said, "I'm delighted that the President will be here for the passage of the bill, it's going to be historic, and it would not be possible without his tremendous leadership." She also said, "It won't be long before we'll be making real difference in lives of the American people."

That’s why the Indonesians brought Obama’s statue to the ground. He is not worth the adulation.

[Cheerio]

She wants us all to believe it is a done deal. Why hasn't she sent the bill to the floor?

[Theodore R.]

It’s talking to the wind; the American people want this socialism, for they voted for it in 2006 and 2008.

The “delay” is due to the fact that the Indonesians are apparently having a cow that he is stepping foot in their country (I couldn’t agree more— WHY is he going??)

[browniexyz]

Notice that Nancy and her colleagues are sure not about to sign up for the “difference” the bill makes!!!

I couldn’t agree more— WHY is he going??

Maybe he owes "back tuition" hush money, or forgot to return a Prayer Rug back in 1st Grade.

[browniexyz]

Very likely why he has to go!!

This COMMUNIST SON OF A WHORE has a cousin named FIDEL CASTRO ODINGA and went to Kenya in 2006 to campaign for his commie cousin Rail Odinga (FIDELS DADDY)who lost the election but set his supporters to murder the winners to the point that they agreed to share power.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND HIS PARTY ARE COMMUNIST MONSTERS.

Prepare accordingly.

A supporter of the presidential challenger Raila Odinga (OBAMAS FIRST COUSIN WHO HE CAMPAIGNED FOR) in Kibera, a sprawling slum near the capital, Nairobi.

The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) was established in 1991 by five members of the United States House of Representatives: Representatives Ron Dellums (D-CA), Lane Evans (D-IL), Peter DeFazio (D-OR), Maxine Waters (D-CA), and Bernie Sanders (I-VT). Then-Representative Bernie Sanders was the convener and first. The founding members were concerned about the economic hardship imposed by the deepening recession, the growing inequality brought about by the timidity of the Democratic Party response at the time.

Additional House representatives joined soon, including Major Owens (D-NY), Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), David Bonior (D-MI), Bob Filner (D-CA), Barney Frank (D-MA), Maurice Hinchey (D-NY), Jim McDermott (D-WA), Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Patsy Mink (D-HI), George Miller (D-CA), Pete Stark (D-CA), John Olver (D-MA), Lynn Woolsey (D-CA), and Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

I am sure the Heads of State that Bambi was going to visit are just overjoyed at the change in schedule on such short notice.

[GloriaJane]

Someday Karma may come looking for you pelosi. You and every person involved in passing obamacare may end up looking Karma right square in the face.

You talk about people going postal. Think what it’s going to be like when people start getting turned down for life saving treatment, and they know who’s to blame.

Instead of going postal it will be called something like going obamacare, or going deathcare, or going pelosi.

[TheConservativeParty]

“his tremendous leadership”???

YOU LIE PELOSI

[HardStarboard]

>>>"It won't be long before we'll be making real difference in lives of the American people." <<<

Nancy, pass this bill and it won't be long before the American People make a real difference in your life!

...politically speaking of course Mz. Napolitano.

[cookiedough]

I think that point should be hammered home to the American people. If it’s good enough for us, it’s good enough for them.

[devane617]

Good point...If she had the votes this bill would be on the floor in ten minutes....
