Karl Mark Jr. and his mistress Nancy simply do not care what We the People or our elected representatives think. Their lust for power truly is totalitarian in nature. Obama probably stays up at night lamenting he doesn’t have the personal power of a Chavez, Castro, or Hu Jintao. He is clearly not interested in representative democracy and is searching for a way to work around our form of government. If he could dispense with our Republic you can bet your last dollar that he would if it meant completing his agenda and fulfilling his vision of changing our nation. He’s a Marxist and at this point only fools and children can deny it. The more he and the Dem leadership for this the more exposed they are for who they really are so I say, keep it up. In fact, push harder and louder. I only hope the Big government Republicans are paying attention as they have been part of the problem for decades with their mealy mouth “bipartisanship” aka selling out.

Now I guess we’ll just have to remind the Republicans to stay vigilant and make sure that none of these items get “smuggled” into any other bills. The Dems have already done this with a couple of things, and I wouldn’t put it past them to keep on doing it.

Thankfully, we should be able to get some legislation passed after November – my only concern is that Obama is essentially a lame duck since last month. I can’t remember a time when a president was essentially neutered this early into his presidency. I’m sure we will get through this – we’re scrappy, after all – but it will be an interesting few years, to say the least.

Dan, I didn’t see it until 16.638 miles away.

Does this make me delusional?

‘:o)~

In all seriousness, thanks for the info!

I’m getting a tingle up my leg – I don’t know where it is coming from, but I have to ask the following to ease my worried mind:

In your title you state that the the Speaker and House Majority Leader Back Away from ObamaCare. However, I don’t actually see that in the story (or maybe I am missing it). I looks like Nancy had a fit when Hoyer dared to challenge the party narrative. I see the whip count leading me to believe the members are backing away, but where is the evidence the leaders of the both chambers are backing away? Is your conclusion implied by the data or is there some explicit reference I am missing here.

I HATE the health care plan. I prefer the Republican “smaller bills that actually curb costs (the real threat)” but a mile.

That said, it seems like the Democrats truly believe in what they are doing, and are willing to fight and “die” for it. There something noble n that – however misguided.

They are the party of “no.” They are the ones saying no to the American people. Republicans need to point that out….

Dan, redneck_hippie and I are still saving some fine wine for you, we have not had to drink it all to drown our sorrows. I am still anxious to see this HC thing burned at the stake, dead and buried.

It’s sad, disgusting, annoying, etc. to see what the radical element of the Democrats are doing to the country. On the plus side, it’s fun watching them self-destruct. Pass the popcorn.

I mean, true, they’re leftists, and they may, at times, be delusional, but they’re not total idiots, are they? Are they!?

one hellevua mix the Dems have there. I wonder how much longer we’ll be hearing the Democrats smart, Republicans stupid thing?
Keep banging your heads against the wall you morons.
And there remains the possibility of flat out insanity.

I expected to hear more support (or at least silence) from the House. I thought it was a done deal.

The democrat speculations about vote counts sound like chest puffing. Her slyness Pelosi is not making announcements about being very close to a deal. The Dark side is whistling in the dark.

All the dead fish bills make Cantor’s job of estimating opposition much easier than for the Dark side to guess at support for another bill that does not exist.

Dan will be sipping fine wine, The troika will be drinking the dregs of defeat.

Activists Taking Action: Unified Patriots

I’m loving every minute of this stuff. The Dems are so self destructive and in the end no bill is going to be passed. The HCR summit tomorrow is a total joke and it’s just more of the same: talk, talk, talk, teleprompter this, teleprompter that, we’re going to pass this so you can either be the party of no or make history, etc. etc.

My question is, and perhaps some of you have already thought about this already, if the Dems truly have the votes and can pass this thing through, then why don’t they do it instead of talking to the Repubs at this summit? They must be very desperate and deeply divided if they have to extend an “olive branch” to us, either that or they want to blame us for not passing their bill when it was they who overreached and mucked things up for themselves.

DemocRATS need to keep flogging this dead horse. Without it they’d have to actually deal with noisome issues such as the deteriorating economy. Moreover, they do not have to spend any additional political capital -what little they might conceivably have- on other non-starter issues like amnesty for illegal aliens and cap and tax.

and I use the term lightly, could not care less about the country, it’s economic problems, it’s health problems, it’s job problems. All he cares about and the only reason he was INSTALLED into the position is for the power and the takeover!

People can talk until they are blue and drop over but they will not convince me otherwise.

and he can’t even offer up a scoreable plan.

The news service, not the mayor.

to explain how America is overleveraged.

i believe there are many americans in government that love this country.everyone knows what obama is doing and the people democrates are not with him.the party democrates will follow him to ends of the earth.which wont be long when november 2010 and 2012 comes.stay mad and vote the out.

about 14 months ago. You state “for about the millionth time….”, in your post. For about the 10,000th time since 1993, and I’m getting tired of saying it, ObamaCare does not reform health care. It “reforms” insurance. Health care comes not from the insurance industry, it comes from the medical industry. THAT is where the reform initiative should be focused. IT is the industry that soaked up 17.3% of the 2009 GDP, not the health insurance industry. Liberals and their Congressional lackeys have always made that mistake: Hillary in 1993, T. Kennedy/Hubert Humphrey and the ADA in 1972, and now Obama et al.

The health insurance industry, bad as they are, is a simple business. In short, they pay our medical bills presented to them by the medical industry. I don’t argue that the medical industry doesn’t have problems staying profitable. And, if everybody in the country had health insurance the medical industry would certainly benefit, as would the health insurance industry. BUT, the Obama Administration is arguing an unsupportable premise, that nationalizing insurance will bring down health care costs. That was Ted Kennedy’s argument and Hillary Clinton’s argument and it does not hold water. It seems the old saying is true: tell a lie long enough and it becomes the truth.

I support “REAL” health care reform. I don’t support this Obamasham and have been emailing and faxing and calling “people of interest” about it since March 2009.

The Republican party in my state (Illinois) is filled with Democrats whose sole goal is to keep the Republicans fractured and infightling so that they never make any political gains. This keeps the corruption in Chicago and Springfield at legendary levels while the furious people throuw up their hands in disgust and move to another state which is causing IL to lose another Congressional seat after the 2010 census. I am the Republican nominee (won the primary 2/2/10) for the 12 Congressional district seat against a long-term incumbent who is wickedly unpopular and I am going to win the election because every voter I talk to HATES the incumbent and calls him corrupt and ineffective which he is. He voted for this pig of a health care bill, the bailout and a host of other bad decisions because he votes 98% with the party. He’s done 5 bills in 22 years and has been ineffective–and a 4 term Congressman from another Midwest state who is a friend HAD NEVER HEARD OF HIM!! I am being attacked by Republicans while my opponent is laying low so I am sure of my assessment of the the condition of the party. I have had to form my own support with absolutely NO help from the Republican party in Illinois which is insane considering how afraid of me the incumbent is–he has refused to debate me and is literally invisible in the district. The Republicans should be rallying to my side and they are busy fighting amongst themselves over BS when we can take this district in November. We have to step up for America–or we will all spend our golden years in fear of our government.
We haveSERIOUS problems. Government spending is insanely out of control and the government is trying to take control of our lives and tax us to death to pay for it. Spending your way to prosperity is like trying to drink your way out of alcoholism and the insulated Congress needs to be voted out because they have NO grasp on reality. The Tea Party people have been the most supportive of anyone and the Republican party is too busy arguing with each other to help. Apparently they feel my primary opponent would have been a better general election candidate against the incumbent–but if she couldn’t even beat ME, how is that possible?? He would have stomped her into the dirt–and I am going to win this because the people who VOTE are behind me!! If you are in SW Illinois, please contact my campaign or me personally because I need conservatives to help me win this. It’s game time folks–and we have to win this for America!

Hey, come on people, get a grip. This has nothing to do with America or what is best for the people, their freedom, liberty and prosperity. This is all about Obama and his face on Mr. Rushmore. The people don’t like it? Tough nuggies, this is about a Obama’s great legacy. Generations will look back lovingly because we have Obama Care brand health care, or so he thinks. He wants to be the one who did what no other could do. We just don’t know what is good for him.
