WASHINGTON -- President Obama yesterday pushed wavering House members to OK health-care legislation for his own political standing and for theirs, as the battle came down to a bare-knuckle brawl for votes.

Obama met with groups of liberal and more conservative Democrats in the White House to try to assemble a winning coalition.

"To maintain a strong presidency, we need to pass the bill," Obama told the liberals, according to Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), who attended the meeting.

"He made a very pointed, very realistic case about how this is an opportunity that won't come around for a long time."

You know you’re a failure and a REALLY crappy president when you need to turn to communism in order to save your presidency. Most of us knew that making a “community organizer” the POTUS was a bad idea. BO is in WAY over his pay grade.

Interpretation of the Bama's thought waves:

Come on boys, vote for it to save me, even though you will lose your jobs by voting for it.

And because I have been such a lousy President, the demonRATS won't have another chance at the Presidency for several decades, so do it now. It's been nice working with you losers.

He never passes up a chance to act un-presidential. Goes for Michelle as well.

Hmmm...I think I see a pattern...martial suicide for the emperor (lost the war), religious suicide for allah (lose their soul) and now political suicide for the anointed one (lose for the loser). Yep, definitely a pattern.
