Sounds like these blue dogs are now gun shy.
Are there ANY Democrats left in Congress who are Americans FIRST and democrats Second?
Because, if there ARE, They have GOT to STOP this guy!
TRANSLATION: We are going to screw the American people as much as we can, while we can.
Oh please, oh please, let it be amnesty. Push it Barry. All the way to the floor. Fry the House AND the Senate.
this is a major reason for Barry’s smoke-and-mirrors on oil drilling. Most Americans who don’t read the fine print will like what they hear. That will push his poll numbers up, and they he will go to Congress and try to convince them that the public is turning around on his agenda.
I wish I could agree, but you know there are at least 2-4 Republicans who will vote for amnesty, maybe more depending on how much $upport from the cheap labor lobby.
Oh please, oh please, let it be amnesty. Push it Barry. All the way to the floor. Fry the House AND the Senate.
Gibbs doesn't sound like the White House is eager for it. It's understandable with so much unemployment. Even Grahamnesty sounds iffy.
At this point, it’s better if they do push on.
Let them f**k-up the country royally.
Enough of the creeping socialism thing.
Let the American people see what these commies are all about.
Perhaps then we can count on some real change in the direction of freedom again.
I know I’m getting twisted at this point, but I remember how the outrage at McCain-Kennedy sent them scurrying into the bushes last time. Do amnesty on top of the health care cram down and you have to have the perfect storm. Flip both bodies in one election, then let zero stand back and admire his handiwork.
Obama sticks his toe in the “Drill Baby Drill door now. The Republicans should slam the door shut cuz he aint serious in the least. If you are serious about anything you jump in with both feet methinks.
Perhaps a few—look at the ones who voted no on health care.
Once everyone figures out what's in obama's job killing health & tax takeover bill, obama's socialist agenda just might hit a brick wall! And let's hope November elections send those Democratic big spending socialists who voted for the job killing health & tax takeover bill out the door!
Democratic leaders' desire to take advantage of healthy majorities before the November elections must contend with lawmakers' survival instincts. White House aides told POLITICO earlier this week that an emboldened Barack Obama plans to parlay his win on health care into a crackdown on Wall Street excesses, a rewrite of education and campaign finance laws and possibly a climate change bill -- all before the fall's midterms.Thanks neverdem. If the Demwits in Congress *had* any survival instincts, they'd have voted no on Obamacare. As it is, they were stuck between alienating the loudmouth fraction of their constituencies (thus they demanded largesse for their districts and states) thus abandoning whatever core or base they had left, and facing the majority of the voters, who will be showing up, regardless of what smears the DNC may concoct -- collect the whole series, although past performance is no indication of future gains.
That whole “drilling” thing was a media-promoted farce. He actually permanently closed off areas that had been under exploration before (Alaska), closed off the richest areas (California), and announced that in couple of limited areas “seismic exploration” (not drilling) would begin in the next few years - including one area whose state has already passed a law to prevent drilling there.
Anybody who believes he is permitting drilling had better read the fine print. Besides, tomorrow or the next day he is supposed to issue an executive order enforcing a “CO2 controls system” through the EPA that is essentially cap and trade...without even having it go through Congress.
I wish there were MORE!
What happened to the “I can do more then one thing at a time”? Where are the jobs? Why is everyone acting like they can finally get around to working on jobs? I thought they had a job summit...........oh that’s right, no one who has ever worked or started a business was invited. Kind of like the fake doctors. These people must really be stoopid to think anything really matters with this big pile of steaming pooh (Obamacare) sitting there waiting for America to take a bite.
They're almost all from competitive districts who moved to the right starting in 2006. That's how the rats took over Congress combined with the dismal GOP performance. That's how they got such a big majority. IIRC, there are 84 Congressional Districts with a rat in the House whose district voted for Bush in 2004 or McCain in 2008. They have a hardcore left leadership, but their majority has a lot of moderates.
Nanct Pelosi walking thru the Tea Party rally carrying her gavel, is like a football player going to the opponents pep rally in a football suit.
