Correct.
If the democRATS try pulling this crap the Republicans had better oppose this with everything they've got. I want them out there 24/7 pointing out how the Rats are oblivious to any rules just to ram through this monstrosity which btw, will forever change the level of health care for ALL Americans.
I'm optimistic though on several points. If the donkeys try reconciliation and the Republicans go after them hard, not only will we easily take the House but the chances of winning the Senate take a huge leap forward. The other point is that this legislation will potentially have problems being enacted as I can see immediate challenges by state governments on grounds of it being completely unconstitutional.
Calling Senator DeMint and Congressman Pence (who should be the minority leaders in their respective body’s). Grab Boehner and Mitch and design your nuclear option. It’s legislative war and America needs you to act like it.
We know the Kenyan Idiot can’t write! We know he is a Fraud when it comes to being an Author, just as everything else this Idiot does! Why does AMERICA let this Putz turn Our Great United States into the Pathetic Laughing Stock of the World? ust this past week, PUTIN compared Greece’s Disasterous Financial Condition to that of AMERICAS and said We were Worse! PUTIN is CORRECT! and PUTIN also knows every sordid detail of this Fraud’s Life and NON History!
My GOD! What has AMERICA come too??? Every detail of this Fraud’s Life has been Hidden, Disappeared, or Manufactured!
The Stinking Media went back for the smallest trivial details of President Bush’s Life and then Lied about them, but they can’t seem to find this IDIOT’S Birth Certificate, any of his records, or even who his darn Father or Mother really is!!* YES! Who is His Mother and Who is his Father?*
* Note: Please check out Dr. Cashill’s latest works on this Fraud!
It’s like we’re living in a third world country where the opinions of the people who actually pay the bills count for two things “Jack” and “S@*t.”
If that bill comes out and the Republicans STILL go to that "bipartisan" meeting then they need to be THROWN OUT ... regardless of their prior voting record. I don't think they realize just how angry people are out here. This is the "third rail" of politics these days. They better not TOUCH that meeting if that bill appears prior.
They will have unleased the dogs of war upon themselves - this will not end pretty.
I may be going against the stream on this but I say that the Republicans should attend this so called "summit". Attend this meeting but then have the courage to state the devious intentions of the democRATS.
Attend the meeting and come out, with boldness, to the cameras with a statement along the lines of "We accepted the president's invitation to this "summit" and what we got was a complete SHAM. We thought that President 0bama was sincere in listening to our proposals but once again, he turned his back on us and betrayed the American people. Our openness in listening was met with a back handed threat of unconstitutionally ramming this monstrosity of a bill. We will listen to the will of the American people and fight this with everything we've got."
I think at this point the dems realize the bill is unpopular, wildly so. They know they are going to lose in the coming election anyway so they have nothing to lose by voting for it as they are going out the door anyway.
The GOP on the other hand should keep their hands off this POS. The Ass hat has a simple plan, here is my plan which is a starting point, so, we can go from here toward anything you want sans changing any of this language. You want cross borders, fine. You want tort reform, no. So we have now compromised and this is a non partisan bill.
Oh, no “let them eat cake” moment either because we are going to tax sugar products.
He never cared about the Congress. People forget this man threw his own grandmother under the bus to get elected. Why would he care who is in Congress? He really does not care if they are reelected or not. Dem congress critters are being used too. They would have to have their heads examined to think he cares one scintilla about them.
It is all about him, always has been.
“legislation intended to reconcile differences between House and Senate Democrats that could be attached to a budget bill “
A chance to nuke socialist health care and shut down the government at the same time?
Dreams can come true!
Vote them all out, then repeal all his stupidity. The new Congress can cut off his funding. Defund all the czars, and put Purple Lips on an allowance until he leaves.
Congress knows it's toast anyway. Go out by changing every American's health care and claim forever it got something accomplished that no other Congress could.
It can be repealed.
Congress still controls the money.
This is going to get very ugly, because the RATS are evidently determined to jump off a cliff.
Regardless of the summit outcome, we have to be ready for one more vicious round of fighting.
We cannot let any of this pass, b/c it will never be repealed.
Obama retains his veto pen until January 20, 2013.
Please cite any case where the Republicans have ever won a battle over shutting down the government.
When the President was Reagan, it was the President’s fault. When the President was Clinton, it was the GOP Congress’ fault.
We cannot let any of BO-care be enacted.
Some of you people on this thread need remedial civics lessons.
Anyone can submit federal legislation; the president, executive depts., state legislatures, governors, and even private citizens. The can be written and submitted by anyone, but must be introduced in congress by a senator or a member of the house, excepting spending bills, which must originate in the house.
“excepting spending bills, which must originate in the house”
And the Healthcare bill IS a spending bill
