Wyden: For imposing the Obamacare individual health mandate before he was against it
Michelle Malkin ^ | September 1, 2010 03:39 PM | By Michelle Malkin

Far Left Democrat Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon championed a federal individual health care mandate, wrote it into his own legislation, and voted it into law. Now, he’s not so sure he wants to impose it on his own constituents — and he’s searching for an exemption for his state.

That is a good idea but that’s not the message.

He voted for it for everyone else, but just as the other dimbulbs,
he wants it for thee, but not for he. Hypocrite fascistazzes.

Don’t let him fool you. He is just pandering for votes.

Hey, Ron. If you won't read the bills, maybe you can read the Constitution.

Article I Section 8 Clause 1:

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

We've been criticised on it before but Oregonians have to be the most naive, if not obtuse, voters in the nation. California is understandable, just a majority of committed loony leftists (and a minority of strong conservatives); but Oregon, highly agricultural, with large business and family oriented religious segments, voted overwhelmingly for Barack Obama, and repeatedly Ron Wyden, a good example of a non-principled chameleon career politician. A Democrat John McCain.

How can they do this? Are they so far from Washington DC they have no idea of the terrible corruption and fecklessness of that political class? Are they so distant from the NY Times they believe it? Are they so full of white guilt (and Oregon is 98% white) they just embrace a shallow, totally inexperienced, Harvard indoctrinated, half-black BS'er?

Maybe some in Oregon are waking up and Ron Wyden is beginning to get cold feet - the Democrats after all have come up to a Karl Rove level realtime mathematical assessment of the electorate. But Oregon, like Minnesota, is just a society of largely normal middle class citizens for which it is difficult to figure how they simply cannot see the tragedy of Leftism.

Nothing like weird CA, many many good solid people; but sure hard to figure.

Most likely he’s doing damage control here in Oregon.
Most think his seat is safe but the Rats are going to loose some state, federal and possibly the Gov seat.

Three months ago the local paper here suddenly did an about face and started talking moderate. It will only last until after the election as thats how Oregon politics works.

Is this the US of A? I’m beginning to think I’ve been warped into some alternate universe where the USA is actually France or some other European hell-hole. I went to look at my local on-line paper this morning & found out about an event I’m sorry I missed...

We have a whole lotta left-wing loons in this town, not to mention the state!

He should be getting a call from the Mother Ship soon! Maybe they will offer to find a high profile Dem to help him campaign if he repents :)

Wyden will be getting a call from the Mother Ship, soon.

Heck, I remember when Wyden was recruiting for Heaven's Gate as Hale Bopp was arriving to pickup the faithful.

Wyden didn't get on board b/c Bill Clinton told liberals voting for O'care was the key to a permanent Dem Majority (/snix).
