RE :”Better to let him go down with his party's nutcases - then come of with something of our own to help the 7% who are unhappy with their medical care.

That was what I am getting at. He needs us now, not vice versa. So let Obama do the heavy lifting and lead a NEW Blue Dog/Republican bill excluding liberals socialists, or he can go down and his presidency with the liberal nutjobs. ;

Watch MSNBC Maddow, Schulz and Olbermann every night plead with Obama to cut off Senate liberal republicans, it's gold. I get more enjoyment out of this in a week than the last 3 years of Bush

Glad Mccain is NOT president! Glad, Glad, Glad!

The Blue Dogs were only holding up the process because of cost and how quickly the agenda was proceeding. I don’t recall them having concerns over content or government control. Also, they reached agreement, apparently, before the August recess. I’m not sure how much in “play” they are, unless they took their constituent’s concerns to heart. I’m not holding my breath.

Let’s get this straight.

Obama’s health care plan will be written by a committee whose head says he doesn’t understand it and advised by a guy that doesn’t believe in the Hippocratic oath, passed by a Congress that hasn’t read it and whose members will exempt themselves from it, signed by a president who smokes, funded by a treasury chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that is broke.

What could possibly go wrong?

Nothing. He's going to get the revolt he wants so he can put us under martial law.

It is funny watching this Communist twisting in the wind.

Let’s turn the tide. We,what is left of the Regan Republican Dream, must find a way to kick these RINOs out of the party, rebuild the party using something akin to a loyalty oath and then begin to dismantle the Federal system. If we don’t destroy the ability of the Federal government to become a tyrant, it will become a tyrant. We must regain control and the dismantle the FDR/Obama nightmare. Return political power to the people theough state government and limit Federal power...

Watch MSNBC

Microsoft National Broadcasting Corporation...

Bill Gates needs to start feeling the heat. Boycott? Maybe we demand Microsoft get out of politics or we start looking for alternatives to the crappy products they sell.

Windows Vista, anyone?

Kicking RINOs out of the R party is easy, the near impossible challenge is to have the Rs be in charge of congress without RINOs winning in liberal areas. Jim DeMint would not win in North East states.

Now personally I would be happy if we had enough seats in house in Senate to block everything, but still be in minority(so they still get the heat). I am not looking forward to republicans in charge again, especially the White House. The fun has just started.

We need a conservative that can communicate conservative ideas clearly and convince voters leaning democrat of freedom. And Iraq invasion type adventures are a lose, cant be sold by any skills.

Yes like the holes in his software for starters.

They're looking at polls, and growing discontent. I'm not holding my breath, either, since it's still a matter of the stronger influence -- threats that they will be dumped by Emanuel (who basically controls the DNC purse strings), or whether they can swim on their own. Who the Republican competion is (if any), and whether they can maintain the seat without the support of the DNC are major factors. (And the DNC can always come up with an alternate liar in their place, come the primaries.)

This is very important. MSNBC is Microsoft and they need to feel the heat for sponsoring/creating this liberal propaganda machine. Let Microsoft know that we support busting up the monopoly!

Good start there was a time back in the Impeached Rapist days when I was against that but not anymore they have proved to be our enemy.
