Hoyer: There's No New, Smaller Health-Care Bill
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/2/10 | Mary Katharine Ham

Posted on 03/02/2010 12:46:32 PM PST by Nachum

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) says there is no truth to reports that President Barack Obama will press Congress to pass a significantly smaller healthcare reform bill.

"I don't have reason to believe that that's accurate," Hoyer told The Hill following a speech at a Federation of American Hospitals conference Tuesday.

Just another trial balloon from Obama that didn’t have enough helium (credibility) to even rise off the floor.

“I don’t have reason to believe that that’s accurate,” Houer said. “I don’t have reason to believe that Obama is honest.”

“After a single year of governance, there is now scarcely a single issue that Obama & Co. have not backtracked on, flip-flopped, redefined, or quietly dropped — mostly matters that were once demagogued to score political points. At some point — I think it was around mid-January — the public collectively shrugged and concluded of Obama, “I don’t trust anything that this guy says.”

With the current democrat regime there are no right hands...just left hands and even farther to the left, left hands.

We are working hard here in the fifth district of Maryland to help poor Steny decide to retire.

Anyone who has had his nose so close to the cess pool that is Democrat politics cannot help but stink, and Brother: Does Steny stink.

I would shrug even more, but my shoulders are already up past my ears.

Ahhhmmm How long is the Congress and Senate going to allow this man to rule as King?

the Summit should never have happened. Obama ruled supreme over the meeting, like a potentate, obstensiously to hammer out a bill.

since when is this how laws are written in this country? We have a separation of powers for a reason. And the Executive Branch is NOT the law making branch!

But he, as the KING he sees himself, has come up with his OWN bill? He's bypassing both Houses and making law?

When is he going to be stopped?
