Look at Congressman "Diversity" to her right over there. The scowl on his face tell me that he is hearing lots of imaginary insults thrown his way.
Yesssirree! He hears em!

“YOU HAVE TO HAVE REPUBLICANS, TOO”? I think I heard that said about healthcare not long ago.
That’s the message to keep us off balance. Same with the drilling.
Just do an executive order over the summer.
Immigration reform is more bi-partisan than health care reform. Perhaps I should say it is less partisan. There are more Republicans in favor of it, BUT, there are also many Democrats who are against it. When Obama says he will need Republican’s to get some ‘skin in the game’, he means that he doesn’t have enough Dems that will vote yea.
I'm not so sure. I think his smoke-and-mirrors on oil drilling just p*ssed off his looney left base, and no one else believes a word of it.
Dems voted healthcare.
They’re in deep $h!t this Nov.
Might as well keep pushing the Obama agenda eh? :)
” but progress on climate change, immigration and other contentious measures probably wasn’t — no matter what happened with the health care bill”
These are the SAME things they said about the Health Care Bill before it was rammed down the public’s throats and up our a$$es . Mark my words—all of these things will be attempted and passed befpre November.
I will, but I doubt it. See the excerpt in comment# 1, and my comment# 19. They don't have the votes for immigration reform, just like they don't have the votes for renewing an "assault weapons ban." The House voted for "cap & tax" already. They don't have the votes in the Senate. The most they'll do is attack Wall Street and education reform, IMHO. They want to be re-elected in November.
Some people choose the party before the person.
But thios is the FIRST Time in My Memory I heard of the Party taking precedence over AMERICA!
What a tragedy!

Tea Parties and the Republican Party
2010 Arctic sea ice sets record! (latest annual max extent on record)
Healthcare repeal is no lost cause
Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
The same can be said about RINO's. Until McPsycho is kicked out of Senate, expect no change.
There's no need to trust them when 84 Congressional Districts are held by rats that voted for Bush in 2004 or McCain in 2008, IIRC. These rats know that they are way out on a limb already.

Some RINOs are geographically inevitable. I thought Tea Parties and the Republican Party had a great analysis.
As for blue dogs, I think your view is a reasonable assumption. On the other hand, they buckled under Zero's pressure more than I expected. I begin to wonder whom they fear more, their constituents or Zero.
“But aides and members, Republicans and Democrats alike, said that a Wall Street crackdown was coming — but progress on climate change, immigration and other contentious measures probably wasn’t — no matter what happened with the health care bill.”
Progress.
No bias there.
Unless Obama is trying to incite open rebellion so he can declare martial law before the elections, and cancel them, there is no point in his twisting arms at this point to get further repellent legislation passed.
Thanks for the ping!
