Health Care? Don't Mention It!
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 02-04-10 | JOHN FUND

Democrats privately lay into President Obama for his lack of a health-care strategy.

President Obama's session with Democratic Senators yesterday was carefully scripted, with the questioners all selected in advance by the Democratic leadership to address issues such as partisan gridlock and GOP obstructionism. Senators Evan Bayh and Blanche Lincoln, both of whom are facing serious opponents this fall, went off message with concerns about the liberal drift of the administration, but all other questioners stuck to their talking points.

I wonder if perennial embarrassments Olberman and Mathews will have another school boy high-five session over this meeting— like they did over their Meshiah being shown respect for the office of the presidency by the Republicans which they, in their stupidity and immaturity, naturally interpreted as Obama kicking their asses.

When AREN'T Obama appearances carefully scripted? If we had an independent Press we wouldn't be in this situation.

Bayh, Lincoln, and the rest of you so-called moderates are nothing more than than Marxist enablers. You drank the Kool Aid and now the aftertaste is burning the back of your throat. You made your bed now you must writhe in it for the next 9 months as your days of selling the country out are numbered.
You will forever be remembered for the vile acts you signed on to the last 12 months. You are laid bare and exposed for what you are deep down inside. Modern day Judases.
Take your pieces of silver and count them. Your day of reckoning is coming.

Why are all your WSJ posts being decimated by the Admin?

In the Admin’s edited comments, it states “LAT.”

I take it that means the Los Angeles Times.

Admin, is there a way for me to tell, so you won't have to continually do this and I can save you time from doing this?

I saw no reference on the WSJ page.

I love the Hitler YouTube videos....... I bust a gut just laughing at the titles. The funniest ones are always the ones that are mocking or portraying 0bozo through Hitler. 0bozo is the dumbest ass pres____ent we have ever had, especially because he takes himself so chosen as "The One" (piss be upon him).

I love this Hitler portrayal of Barack Obama's Downfall... IMO it is the funniest one!!!

And yet we keep hearing and reading about how the democrats are secretly hammering out yet another go at the Obamacare abomination. These people are such ideologues that they refuse to listen to the American people...or common sense.

They do need to be voted out in Nov.

The mod pulled one about the Democrats because it wasn't suitable for a family oriented forum. But it had a good point: they are like women - weak, indecisive and effeminate. There's nothing good about them: their socialism or the incompetence at getting good legislation through Congress! I have a choice epithet about the Democrats I'd shout on here but one thread pulled is enough for my quota for tonight. Let's just say they should sit back and enjoy it in November!

I’d have loved to have been in that room. LOL

Okay Democrat’s I’ll help you out. Ditch that bill. Take the pages, light a bonfire at the Capitol and let it “Burn Baby Burn”.

You can’t repair the damage done by arrogantly blowing off the electorate. People are going to make you pay if you don’t pass it. They’ll make your lives Hell if you do. So take the less of two and let it go.

Instead you should scrap all of these fantasies about how the government should function in your minds, and apply conservative strategies to repair this economy. Republicans would have to support you. DO this now and maybe by November the economy would show enough hopeful signs that some of those angry Independents might not be as angry. It won’t stop some of you losing jobs, but it would blunt the damage and protect some others that otherwise would.

I of course dn’t think you have the sense to do any of this.

I think LAT is shorthand for the lawsuit that started the whole excerpting thing.

That does not explain why the Ad Min has been ripping your WSJ articles. The posting software won't let you post over 300 words, which is what we are allowed AFAIK.

Other than "must excerpt," there are no specific notes about the WSJ on Jim Rob's no-no list, so what's the deal?

Thanks. I was unaware your posts were subscription only material. That certainly explains it.

Yes, I’m usually signed in, so I don’t see the icons that indicate subscription material or not. I will watch for that. Enjoy your day, upchuck! :-)
