Pelosi: We Will Have Health Care – One Way Or Another

January 18, 2010

ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi says Democrats will charge ahead with health care reform regardless of what happens in the Massachusetts Senate race.

"Let's remove all doubt, we will have health care -- one way or another," Pelosi told reporters in San Francisco.

But how? The Speaker was less clear on that question.

"Certainly the dynamic would change depending on what happens in Massachusetts," Pelosi said. "[It’s] just a question about how we would proceed. But it doesn't mean we won't have a health care bill."

Privately, Democratic Congressional leaders are less certain. The most likely scenario, and one preferred by the White House, is for the House to simply pick up and pass the bill that passed the Senate on Christmas Eve. But House Democrats say they can’t do that because they simply don’t have the votes to pass Senate bill (recall that House passed its own bill by a narrow 220-215 margin, and since then, one of those 220, Democrat Robert Wexler, has left the House and won’t be replaced until April).

Speculating on the impact of Republican victory, one Democratic leadership aide in the Senate told me today, ““The most likely outcome is that health care reform dies.”

When the Dems smell resistance and defeat, they just become even more dictatorial.

There are certain elements of the American system and tradition that Commissar Pelosi fails to grasp.

The end MUST be near for the Obama/Pelosi/Reid axis of idiocy when CNN’s Jack Cafferty tears her not-so-royal LOWNESS a new on national TV.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6_xgKWzhRw&;

Even if you’ve seen this one a dozen times, if your cardio-vascular system needs a high-pressure test, watch it again — THEN SEND IT TO EVERYONE ON YOUR LISTS. (Why does the phrase “Let them eat cake” keep ringing in my ears?)

Perhaps this video will work its way into her own district and the voters there will send her PACKING, not back to Washington. This delusional creature belongs in a mental institution.

Even if she IS sent packing, the bigger crime is that she and Reid and all the others who’ve done so much damage to this country will shuffle off to enjoy a retirement package about which the average American can only dream.

Public “service” WAS supposed to be just that — a SERVICE with the sacrifices that term often entails. Many of the Founders paid that price: Jefferson died deeply in debt and only action by some friends in congress — purchasing his extensive library for what is now the Library of Congress — allowed him to live out his last years and die in his own bed at Monticello. He and the others would be APALLED at the score of Pelosis, Reids, Obamas and the rest who have prostituted the system beyond anything they might recognize.

The citizens out here in fly-over country MUST put these people on notice that the party is over because “We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it any more.”

IT MUST STOP!!!!!!

VISIT http://WWW.GOOOH.COM to see what some citizens are doing to correct this madness.

And if you want to know who the REAL culprits are in all of this, LOOK IN THE MIRROR!
