I don’t know about any “Obamacare” ... all I know about is “Democrat-care” (aka “Democare”).

Six terms? You should think about retirement, Max.

I hope the people of Montana send you packing.

Last week, the South Carolina house passed legislation out of the committee that would nullify obamacare.

Deal with that, you DC fascists.

Another one coming down the pipe is the arrest and imprisonment of federal thugs who try to enforce the confiscation of weapons.

The federal fascists are heading into a buzzsaw with their underwear barn door wide open.

Train wreck or not, Baucus knows MT will endorse any and all liberalism henceforth.

it’s headed for a “train wreck” because of bumbling implementation.
**********
No, it was bumbling and unworkable legislation from their own hands. This will be a complete debacle and the mother of all train wrecks. There are 2,000+ pages of highly complex requirements and interfaces that the underlying systems and hapless applicants will have to deal with. The mess is just beginning.

“.....Baucus expects to face a tough re-election in 2014.” These guys have no dignity whatsoever. 36 years of perks, power and stealing from the taxpayers just isn’t quite long enough.

I’ve never understood how states like MT could vote solid GOP in presidential elections then send Democrat lawmakers to Congress. I’m convinced the average voter doesn’t understand party majorities set the agenda in the House and Senate. They just think their guy is “ok”. It doesn’t matter how “ok” a local Democrat is, that guy or gal gives the evil communists who control the party the majority they need.

Montana is neither a Red or Blue state. There are a million people in the whole state. One of the Senators is head of the Senate Finance committee and is in a position to send billions to Montana to pay for all of the programs mandated by the Federal government...

Are good folks of Montana going to replace him with someone at the bottom of the seniority ladder..nor a chance.

he thinks it's headed for a "train wreck" because of bumbling implementation.

It's a shame there is no government organization that is set up with the responsibility of overseeing programs administered by the Executive Branch.

Just a darned shame.

“...he thinks it’s headed for a “train wreck” because of bumbling implementation.”

The O’care bill is crap because that is that way that Baucus wrote it! At least he didn’t blame GOP “obstruction.”

I believe that at the secret White House meeting this week the inevitable 100% increase in premiums for the peeps was revealed.

Do not persist in thinking that Obama is a person.

He was chosen as the central idol; the focus of a sort of santeria voodoo cult. He is Evita Peron. Hugo Chavez. None of his followers is willing to connect the dots that trail from the top ... down from a man who impresses me as not actually running anything. He is just trotted out to read statements from the teleprompter array that surrounds him at every public appearance. It is a cult.

Now, in his last two years, even those appearances appear contrived, wooden. There is not a scintilla of human emotion in his inane remarks about the Boston Massacre.

There is an even greater downside to this cult of personality into which you, I, and many another FReeper is in danger of falling. That is, we are focused too much on him. That, I am convinced is by design. While we bitch and moan about him, Team Obama, that is 'The Brains of the Outfit,' keep consolidating power. They WANT chaos and disarray, and they have gotten it.

After this catastrophic event I am convinced more than ever ... and I don't particularly care if we electy Daffy Duck to do it ... we must sweep Congress in '14. Let's concentrate on finding Republican, Tea Party, and Conservative candidates and hammer the SOBs into shape until they listen. And just BTW, why exactly cannot Boehner be dumped now?

“And just BTW, why exactly cannot Boehner be dumped now?”

I might be a minority on FR, but I believe that Boehner and McConnell outfoxed Barry on the New Year’s Day Deal.

Yup, they gave up $600 billion in tax increases on “the rich” but they suckered Barry into agreeing to put off the sequester cuts for ONLY TWO MONTHS. Barry thought he could pull of his community organizing campaign to scare the public with tails of horror and get the sequester cuts reversed, but HE FAILED! IMO Barry’s second administration was OVER on March 1.

Then Boehner and McConnell refused any “out of regular order” budget deals and forced the Senate Dems and also Barry to actually publish a Budgets with real cuts that PO their own constituents for a change.

Coming up Boehner and McConnell are promising to hold the line on demanding dollar for dollar spending cuts for any debt ceiling increases presumably backed by Barry’s sequester idea.

What’s not to like?
