Rep. Jim McDermott (D., Wash.) said “I haven’t seen this much panic on the [House] floor since 9/11″ in response to the House Republican proposal allowing insurers to offer healthcare plans scheduled to be cancelled under Obamacare Friday morning:

JIM MCDERMOTT: Mr. Speaker, my mother used to say, patience is a virtue. I haven’t seen so much panic on this floor since 9/11.

McDermott is safe since his constituents are unhinged or communist, or both.

Wait until someone finally does a forensic accounting of ‘what went where’ re the billions wasted on this lefty sacred cow thus far.
McDermott, you and your friends little ‘nads will shrivel up into your throats! This train hasn’t even finished jumping track.

Wow his district was 79/18 Obama in 12.

Down from 84/15 in 08.

Stunning numbers for a district that’s only 8% Amish.

Has anyone heard from Michelle lately?

Wasn’t she instrumental in getting her Harvard friend’s company to set up the website?

Absolutely STOOPID of the RINOs to throw O-care a lifeline which postpones its effects past the ‘14 election.

“And, watch closely the role the Clintons play in this - esp. Bill.”

I noticed it wasn’t long after clinton told obama to let the people keep their policies that he came out and did this.

Clinton knows the people aren’t getting their policies back, but he said it with his famous “sincere seriousness” and the sheeple believe anything clinton says....and it forced obama’s hand.

I’m not so sure the clintons didn’t put the monkey wrench in the obamacare website. It’s not farfetched if we make ourselves remember who and what the clintons are, especially when it comes to getting rid of their competition in whatever way is necessary, and in setting themselves up to be heroes coming on the scene to “fix” what they’ve broken.

They recently succeeded in pulling off the mcauliff election. I think things are coming together nicely for bill and hil. And they’re willing to be patient in their retribution because they love to watch their victims squirm. This also serves to warn others to stay out of their way.

You know you're in political trouble when BJ Clinton advises you not to lie to the American People.

I'm sorry you have that socialist windbag for a Rep. He was my Mother's & Step-dad's rep until she passed away and he moved. I have Dave Reichert (not a true conservative, but better than most of the other reps from WA). Unfortunately, our state in unably represented in the Senate by Patty "Osama Mama" Murray and Maria Can't-do'well - - then there's are not so glorius Gov - Jay Inslee .
