Carville on Health Care: Could be Obama’s ‘Waterloo’
abc ^ | March 01, 2010

Posted on 03/01/2010 9:46:28 PM PST by george76

On 'GMA' this morning, James Carville wasn't as optimistic as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Not sure that Democrats have the votes to pass the President's plan, Carville is sure that failure will be the "Waterloo" predicted by GOP Senator Jim DeMint.

“If it goes down" Carville said, "it’s gonna be a simple statement: the Democrats can’t govern. They came in with a majority promising health care and they came away with nothing.”

Passes...doesn’t pass...it’s a lot of time wasted on an issue *other* than reforming our economy so that an economic recovery can finally begin.

The healthcare bill won’t even begin coverage for years, so the GOP will have plenty of time to repeal it after they regain power.

By the way, “Waterloo” had a winner (Wellington) and a loser (Napoleon)...makes for a bad analogy.

I listen to the radio, hear people calling in that they need health care reform because they need medication to keep them alive that costs 1700 a month.

If it wasn’t for the for profit health care system, they wouldn’t have the opportunity to spend the 1700 to keep themselves alive.

It is a catch 22, why can’t American’s figure this out. If it was free or the cost was driven down to the point no one can make a profit, then why would they have created that drug in the first place.

Simple answer is, they wouldn’t have.

Hitlery will step down at the worst possible time for 0bama. The Clinton’s hate him and will do the typical Clinton thing....step on him after they’ve used him in manners that only help themselves.

0bama is a Useful Idiot and the powers that be will toss him aside when they’re finished with him.

When are the pundits going to get it figured out, as many Americans are more and more coming to the conclusion, "neither party can govern"!

That is "our" job and it is about time "we took back over"!

But they won't.

Invasion of Russia would be a more apt analogy.

Do we trust the most venomous snakes on the planet (who have been striking at us repeatedly in the past year) to slither away or dig their fangs in and go for the kill?

      “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”  Winston Churchill quotes

“Most people who read "The Communist Manifesto" probably have no idea that it was written by a couple of young men who had never worked a day in their lives, and who nevertheless spoke boldly in the name of "the workers".”  Thomas Sowell quotes

      “For socialists, not just the wealth, but the guilt, must be redistributed”  Andrew Sandlin quotes

“All socialism involves slavery”  Herbert Spencer quotes
