Hah-Hah!… 100% of Senate Dems Up For Reelection Want O-Care Delayed
The Gateway Pundid ^ | 10/23/13 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/24/2013 7:25:51 AM PDT by cotton1706

These liberals are so transparent. 100% of Senate Democrats who are up for reelection and who voted for Obamacare are supporting a delay in Obamacare.

They’re scared to death of this disaster they created. Big Government reported:

On Wednesday, CNN’s Dana Bash tweeted that all Senate Democrats up for re-election in 2014 will reportedly support a delay of Obamacare’s enrollment deadline.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), who is up for re-election in 2014, wrote to Obama on Tuesday and asked him to delay the enrollment deadline for the individual mandate. “Given the existing problems with the website, I urge you to consider extending open enrollment beyond the current end date of March 31, 2014,” Shaheen wrote to the president. “Allowing extra time for consumers is critically important so they have the opportunity to become familiar with the website, survey their options and enroll.”

On Wednesday, Sen. Mark Pryor (D-AR), who is facing a tough challenge in his 2014 re-election against Rep. Tom Cotton (R-AR), came out in support of Shaheen’s call for a delay of the individual mandate’s enrollment deadline. Pryor had previously been on record as supportive of the mandate as is.

Now, according to CNN’s Bash, the Democratic Party is coordinating an effort to support a delay in the individual mandate.

They need to pitch the whole damn thing.

You know, the thought of the GOPe commiting seppuku en masse does have some appeal...


It’s starting to look like they will be forced to... thank you, Senator Cruz. There’s still a Cruz sign up on top of a hill on my way to work, I guess the local rats are too lazy to climb up and get it.

I'm glad you pointed that out about Issa so folks refresh their memories about Issa and his "hearings" which have a remarkable tendency to initially gather winds into a hurricane but then fizzle out to a disintegrating water spout as they approach land.

The huge question is, will 0bama admit to failure by allowing this? Will he look bad to help his fellow Dems? The Dems in question have to be really nervous depending on that ego driven maniac.

So, a week ago they voted to put down the “Tea Party,” rebellion and conservatives who were keeping the government shut down (actually less than 15% of it) so that the democrats and the President would have to delay ObamaCare.

We were told by the DNC and the MSM that this was tantamount to destroying America because of their hatred for ObamaCare. We were told that these wild eyed Tea Party extremists and conservatives were willing to destory the country because they wanted to de-rail the president’s signature legislation. We were told that the DNC and the president were “firm,” and would not agree to a delay of any sort.

Finally, the GOP establishment leadership caved in a week ago and the Senate and then the House voted to end the shutdown and put the Tea Party in its place.

Now...ONE WEEK LATER...these democrats are lining up with Marco Rubio and calling for the same delay that the Tea Party fought for?

They want us to believe that somehow, a week later, everything has changed, and this is now their idea? Their rescue of the President’s boondoggle?

These people are so unbelievably mental and delusional. They take all of America for fools, and are betting that we are too stupid and too distracted to notice.

They are now proposing to do the same thing that the Tea Party and conservatives like Ted Cruz called for...and now want us to believe that it is “their,” idea and that somehow, because the Tea Party wanted to do this it was horrible...it was bad...it was a travesty that would destroy America. But now that they want to do the same damn thing it is all of a sudden a good thing?

They are simply afraid of the 2014 election. They knew all along how bad ObamaCare was, and they fought efforts to honestly delay it and allow the American people time to either fix it, or reject it. These flim-flam artists and con-men need to be HAMMERED. Whether they are democrats are establishment GOP, does not matter. for the good of this nation, these liars and scheisters need to go.

It’s a sickening and disgusting specticle by the most dishonorable, untrustworthy, selfish, vain, and corrupt bunch of carepet baggers, scalawags, and slimy polliwogs that have ever inhabited the halls of congress or the White House.

I expect Rush to open with this thread topic.

In all the sound and fury these last few weeks, we - at least, I - may have lost sight of how strong we really are.

Keep those insurance cancellations coming! I wish they only got mailed to RATS, sigh...

What are they afraid of? Are people going to vote for the Republicans who voted to fund Obamacare? The only Dems who need to worry are those with a Tea Party opponent.

Agreed. No delay. Either defund the whole thing or full steam ahead!

Will the GOP-e who refused to stand with Cruz now stand with the RATS?

Never was any President more deserving of impeachment from office.

This could be the start of a rift between the Senate ‘Rat Pack and the White House, after being in lockstep for five years. But I wouldn’t get my hopes up all that much.

That can order their packing boxes to get an early start for 2014.

Yeah, but missing the big picture, as Rush points out: it's SUPPOSED to fail so they can claim they need single payer.

The question is whether Americans will think that's reasonable or if they will be repulsed so much they want to dismantle this stuff.

They must all be racist. Finding fault with Obamacare. Barry finally found fault after seeing it on the news, so Barry must be racist.
