The competing radio addresses underscored the urgency behind Obama's last-ditch push for immediate health care reform. Without a victory -- and quickly -- Democrats move into a fast-approaching election season without a major, tangible accomplishment that affects voters' pocketbooks. And with a chasm remaining between the two parties, Democrats considered passing the overhaul with votes just from their party....
More stress for us all, compliments of the President and his crew. Many of us will have more health problems before these people are finished with us.
There are doubts that it has the votes to pass in the House.
Obama’s socialist version of a chicken in every pot:
* If you don’t subscribe to a government approved food coop, you’ll get fined by the IRS.
* The government will tell you how big and what kind of chicken you’ll get.
* You won’t get your government approved chicken for 4 or 5 years.
So far he has put about 100 coats of lipstick on this pig.
Funny, yesterday PO__S was “pleading”... today he’s “turning up the heat”? The PO__S propogandists need to get their BS story straight.
Actually, the RATs will be much better off if they avoid "affecting voters' pocketbooks" any further.
Maybe because they're terrified the government will continue mucking about in the free market, YOU ARROGANT BASTARD!

The current 'sickness' in our healthcare system can be traced to government regulations and manipulation of prices, but we're supposed to believe more of the same will make it better?

Here is why I think this is an important issue:
ObamaCare will die in the House unless the Senate and Harry Reid can convince the Stupak Pro-Life Caucus that they would, with certainty, modify the ultimate language in the law defining ObamaCare to outlaw abortion funding. To make such a guarantee Reid will have to prove that there is a majority in the Senate to do so. There is no way to prove that without an actual vote. Also Reid has to prove that the desired language change is legal under the Senate rules for a reconciliation bill. This is not a certainty. And then Reid has to prove that the Republicans won't stall the process in the Senate so that nothing ever gets settled.
IMHO, none of this can be proven to the Stupak Group with any credibility if the Senate cannot proceed formally with the reconciliation bill before the House votes on the original Senate Bill. Can they proceed? I don't know. What I do know is that they aren't and they took the weekend off.
So if anyone out there in Freeperland understands the actual process that the Senate will follow in constructing a reconciliation bill that goes beyond the normal back-room dealing should speak up.
Did he not say that jobs were going to be his #1 priority? And now his veep says that losing jobs was good news? But still its the long march to socialized medicene.
Obama is working overtime to get out his message.
"And those are NOT my fingerprints all over the Congressional bill.
I merely facilitated discussion among the various groups."
