Just as I predicted, Team Obama is being forced to offer pretty much nothing but a Happy Face Feel Good health plan to Congress devoid of "public option" aka "single payer" aka "government run" aka "socialized medicine." Why? Not that they wouldn't love such an expensive program. It's just, as Barack Obama himself has said, they are OUT of money. Plus the Chinese who own a major portion of our debt read the riot act to Timothy Geithner when he was in Peking and ordered him NOT to make the dollar even more worthless by incurring even more wasteful spending programs like socialized medicine. And for this we have to thank Obama's expensive Porkopulous program which did absolutely NOTHING to help the economy as was promised. And now NOTHING left to spend. So goodbye "public option" health plan. And, of course the DUmmies are agonizing over this painful fact as you can see in this THREAD, "So... No Single Payer... No Public Option..." That's right, DUmmies. No NOTHING! All you will get is basically "RESOLVED: Adequate Health Care is a good thing." So let us now watch the DUmmies mourn the loss of their beloved "public option" in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, laughing at the irony of Porkopulous killing off Big Government spending programs, is in the [barackets]:
So... No Single Payer... No Public Option...
[Enjoy your Obama breakfast---Egg McNuthin'.]
Can someone please tell me what the hell is happening here? Where is the real reform? Am I just missing it?
[It disappeared when Porkopulous burned up all the money. And now to the rest of the disappointed DUmmies...]
The Audacity of Nope. Coupled with The Fierce Urgency of Whenever.
[LOL!!! "The Audacity of Nope." Will definitely be stealing that line.]
Obama played his part in making sure the public option had no teeth
[He tied his own hands with Porkopulous.]
Washington is happening. Specifically, the Senate is happening. And the Senate is a truly ridiculous holdover from an 18th century compromise that has only grown increasingly broken with time.
[What happened to that "love" for the Constitution that the DUmmies pretend to have?]
No single payer, but at the end of the day, youll probably get a "public option". Emphasis on option, whatever that means. Co-ops, exchanges, watered down medicare with conditional enrollment
["RESOLVED: Adequate Health Care is a good thing."]
Rahm Emmanuel may have some inside info. I could be wrong.
[And that inside info was that Porkopulous did NOTHING but burn up money and kill off any future big spending plans.]
My hope balloon is leaking air real fast
[SSSSSSSSSSssssssssssssssssss.....]
If Obama settles for some watered-down piece of crap, then we'll have gotten his message.
[The Audacity of Nope.]
Yep. How’s that Hope and Change working out for you DUmmies?
I must be playing the high priced machines. Heck, I was on a layover in the airport in Las Vegas and went through $40 between flights.
I know several BO voters who have been very quiet for the past few weeks. They don't like what they see happening now, and all I do is tell them: "I told you so."
very amusing, but within lies a kernel of dangerous truth. The far left is becoming more and more adamant over this point that the Senate is an 18th. century anachronism that is broken and needs to be “fixed”. Look for them to start devoting vast amounts of resources towards this project.
oh, and Obama is also telling them to call off the dogs in pressuring moderate Dems over public option. Wonder how they are taking THAT?
Here's something I seldom say...from your keyboard to God's ear, DUmmie.
It worked pretty well until someone decided that "power to the people" made direct election necessary and they just became another bunch of pandering hucksters.
Yep. We have definitely passed through the looking glass.
By the way, today, July 7, marks the passing of a Primitive of Prominence four years ago.
The primitives are remembering their legend, their fantasy today.
They’ve been whining about the Electoral College for decades, too. The 2000 election only intensified it.
RIP, Andy. I hopew you’ve found peace in the next world that eluded you in this one.
Of course.
Now, that's good. Kudos to the DUmmie who came up with those lines!
I hear Cialis might help.
If not, try Fix-A-Flat...
Occasionally, a primitive achieves the accuracy level of a stopped clock. The only deliberative body more useless and unnecessary than the US Senate has to be the UN General Assembly.
Who needs 100 prima donnas whose greatest collective accomplishment is taking bribes and naming unneeded monuments after themselves?
yes
LOL!
It all went to heck when they started getting elected directly. True, they weren’t George Washington clones before that, but they answered to a state government, not a bunch of constituents with their hands out.
