(H/T: Hot Air Headlines) Let us review the Democratic response to the Republican response to Obamacare.

• They tried steamrollering us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried taunting us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried ignoring us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried threatening us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried lecturing us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried demonizing us. Didn’t work.
• They tried threatening us.  Didn’t work.
• They tried distracting us. Didn’t work.
• They tried blustering us.  Didn’t work.

So now they’re (specifically: three members of Obama’s Cabinet) trying begging us.  Will that work?  I don’t know: maybe they should try it again.  Only this time they really should work that begging.  Make us believe that they mean it.

Seriously, though: haven’t these people figured out yet that the Republican party wants this confrontation?  Obviously, we want the Obamacre repeal to pass the Senate and get signed off on by the President; but we are going to do what we are going to do, and we were not shy about saying what we were going to do.  If the Democrats can’t face that – or us – that is exclusively their problem, and I wish them joy in trying to get out of the consequences of their past cowardice.

To quote the Speaker of the House: “You’re welcome.”
