“He [McDonough] gave us the impression that he’s taking charge of the different elements and cracking the whip. He said to let him know if we had concerns,” said a Democratic senator who attended the meeting.

I wonder how ValJar feels about that since she wears the 'big boy' pants in the WH.

Awww, isn't that a shame -- Obama's army of lickspittles are 'upset'. Poor dears.

With any luck, maybe they'll all suffer a collective stroke. It would serve them right.

And all that bad will they worked so hard to foster against the GOP, gone, gone, gone.

And all that bad will is being fiercely redirected to the Administration and the Dems. One, just one, of these “frustrated Democratic Senators” could have stopped this disastrous law.

They own it! Let them enjoy it. Then, they can watch its destruction along with theirs!

Have these DIM/LIB asshat commies even read the stupid nobamacare bill yet? Or read the 30,000 pages of nincompoop (I stress the “poop”) regulations? You’d think a few years would give them the time. I have run out of adjectives to describe these traitors: pin-heads, idiots, degenerates, slime, scum, a-holes, deteriorated dimwits, clods, putrid pustules...I could go on and on.

I hope they choke on their nobamacare sh** sandwich. Losers all. Traitors to Freedom all.

"Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) told colleagues the White House and Democratic lawmakers need to do a better job telling positive stories about the Affordable Care Act.

"She lamented that insurance companies have had it “both ways” by blaming ObamaCare for rising premiums and reaping millions of new customers because of the law, according to a lawmaker who attended the meeting. "

Totally retarded she is.

Wish the Pubbies would shut the government down next time around until all the carve outs are eliminated.

The Dems are finally at that “finding out what’s in it” stage...

“Don’t raise the bridge. Lower the river.” Revealed in every one of those statements, is the bizarre, almost other worldly, thought process directing every Leftist Dem. God help us. How did these people ever get into power?

Funny: They vent their frustration at Obama’s flunky, but when Obama is there they are frightened to open their mouths except to plant a French kiss on his buttocks.

What a pack of scum.

Lawmakers discussed a proposal by Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) to let people keep their health plans, even if they fall short of the requirements set under the new law...

Oh sure, propose that now, after the horse has left the barn.

Democratic senators facing reelection in 2014 were some of the most vocal critics.

One lawmaker described Sens. Al Franken (D-Minn.) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) as visibly “agitated.”

Shaheen demanded to know why the rollout of HealthCare.gov had become so riddled with problems.

Lawmakers discussed a proposal by Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) to let people keep their health plans, even if they fall short of the requirements set under the new law, according to another lawmaker in the room.

Landrieu expects several Democrats to co-sponsor the proposal.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) told reporters that he plans to sign onto Landrieu’s bill.

Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.), who faces a tough race next year, said he is in the midst of reviewing a draft.


Hey! No one told me when I got the 2nd LA Purchase backroom deal for my vote. I just read about this in the news like you ….

SCHADENFREUDE! SCHADENFRUEDE! Seeing such ‘visibly agitated’ democRATS gives me a feeling of …..

And here are the SEVEN democRAT senators running (or retiring) in states that even Mitt Romney won in 2012 ......

Begich (AK)
Pryor (AR)
Landrieu (LA)
Baucus (MT)
Hagan (NC)
Johnson (SD)
Rockefeller (WV)
