Dem. Rep says using the term “ObamaCare” violates House rules

21 State Lawsuit ^ | 2/18/11

This just in, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) said this on the floor of the House this morning:

“In two previous gentlemen’s statements on the amendment, both of them referred to the Affordable Care Act, which is the accurate title of the health care reform law, as ‘ObamaCare,’” Wasserman Schultz said, referring to a previous statement by Rep. Tom Graves (R-GA). “That is a disparaging reference to the President of the United States. It is meant as a disparaging reference to the President of the United States. It is clearly in violation of the House rules.”

Did anyone tell Brillo Pad Head her hair needs some ObamaCare?

[mockingbyrd]

And just how did Miss Debbie refer to President Bush and his social security plans on the floor of the house?

“ObamaCare” is insulting to Dims, while Conservatives wear the “Reaganomics” label as a badge of honor.

[Kickass Conservative]

Well Debbie, sometimes you have to call a Spade a Spade.

[FlingWingFlyer]

You’re right Debbie. Let’s call it BarryCare or CommieCare. ObamaCare sounds too much like the Islamoterrorist that destroyed the WTC and part of the Pentagon.

Hey Debbie Wantsaman Shultz! Sit down, blow your perpetually snotty nose, and SHUT UP!

Rep. Tom Graves is my congressman. Angering that &*^$#@ makes me proud. I can't call her a woman. It would be disparaging to women.

We can call it other names if they don’t like that...

Commie-care
The Great Boondoggle
FDR part II
The Anti-Constitution

I could go on...

[Lancey Howard]

I prefer “Mengelecare”.

[DarthVader]

Debbie, if you can’t say anything constructive to this debate just shut up.

[DaveyB]

Obamacare, aka commie care, aka Americide, aka the death of liberty is clearly in violation of the Constitution that congress is sworn to protect.

[Dapper 26]

NOW the dems talk about House rules? What rules, “there are no rules”.

Wasserman Schultz said, ... “That is a disparaging reference to the President of the United States. It is meant as a disparaging reference to the President of the United States."

No, stupid, it's meant to disparage your idiotic law. But it's telling that you think associating your bill with 0bama is an insult to him. LOL

[bigbob]

jeeez.....her and Alan Colmes are the only two people in the country beating this drum...

[cynwoody]

Well, it’s really PelosiReidCare, because the Won couldn’t be bothered to wallow in policy wonkery. But he’s the President, he ran on it, advocated for it, and signed it. So, like it not, c*nt, he owns it!

[Secret Agent Man]

All Republicans must now refer to the deathcare act as Obamacare.

[bibletruth]

Zero-bama is a huge disparaging anti-american, communist, Christ rejecting, incompetent president this USA has EVER had, so big zero deal if some zero based demon-crate calls this disparaging...resign if you don’t like it...

[Secret Agent Man]

Unless people start calling it “Obamacide”, I will keep calling it Obamacare.
