Thank God for the Blue Dog Dems!
It will be wonderful to see this madness voted down.
To: NormsRevenge
If crap n trade and Obamacare go down in flames, so will bambi. It will all over for the Kenyan Communofascist and his fiendish plan to destroy the U.S.

"Democratic Rep. Mike Ross of Arkansas said that
if the Democrats' liberal legislative plan came to the floor as proposed, an "overwhelming majority" of his group would oppose it. The Blue Dogs claim 52 members, so that could endanger the bill."
I'd vote for this guy before a RINO.

They know they are being used to ram this monstrosity through. Even if they lose their seats, it would be too late and Pelosi would have won the day. It seems they may have figured it out. Based on the extremist agenda of the Democrats, I think the Blue Dogs will lose big anyway as they should.
To: icwhatudo
See, I don't believe in voting for Party. IDEOLOGY is the only way to go after the RINO Invasion into the Republican Party.

Pray that this is true. If your rep is one of these then it isn't to early to let them know your feelings. Mine's a worthless Pelosi sycophant and I wrote him anyway.
KEEP UP THE PRESSURE!!!

I’ll bet Rep. Marion Berry (D-Ark) gets double takes every time she says her name around Washington D.C....

Absolutely right! I worry at those who only look at a letter after someone’s name and draw conclusions from that.

Not all Democrats are progressive nut cases and many do love this country. Why do you think the Kenyan has so many czars?

...raising concerns about the cost of President Barack Obama's health care overhaul and seeking to put the brakes on legislation. It may have taken their constituents convincing them, however at least they are actually acting like they each have a brain now.

The fiscally conservative Blue Dog Coalition planned to present a letter to House Democratic leaders asking for more time, members of the group told The Associated Press. Democratic Rep. Mike Ross of Arkansas said that if the Democrats' liberal legislative plan came to the floor as proposed, an "overwhelming majority" of his group would oppose it. The Blue Dogs claim 52 members, so that could endanger the bill... "We've just got a lot of questions and the top of the list would be how to pay for it," said Rep. Marion Berry, D-Ark.
I wouldn't count on passage, but I also wouldn't count on BDC solidarity against passage, either.
