Yet another bad call on obama's part. Don't polls show that most Americans oppose the government takeover of 1/5th of our economy via "healthcare reform" which is nothing of the sort?

Most American's are going to applaud the GOP for being obstructionist in this case.

Another Obama lie. Republicans don't have enough votes to stop the clock in the House chambers.

End of story. The Democrats were pwoned in the last general election and now they must pay ~ stupid b*+*rds came out on who they want running proctological examinations in this country,

“a good health care bill”

Kind of like how HOPE and CHANGE really is nothing more than VAGUENESS and AMBIGUITY?

Still lying I see huh 0?

Republicans cannot block a thing. Democrats have overwhelming majorities in both houses. EVEN if every single Repb voted against it, your Democrats can pass anything you want.

"You know, I intend to be president for a while and once this bill passes, I own it."

This statement is pretty revealing as to their strategy for finishing this battle. On the surface, by 'owning' the bill and associating it with himself, it looks like he fully intends to cash in some of his popularity if necessary.

The truth is a bit more disturbing. He won the election on a cathartic tide of white guilt for the mistreatment of black people over the last three centuries. By the end of the campaign it was being suggested that if you did not vote for Obama it could only be because you were racist.

So now, he has laid the pretext for playing the race card. Of course, he won't do it himself, but his proxies will. In fact they began with this morning's news cycle. So now, if you are against his plan, you are racist.

“Another Obama lie. Republicans don’t have enough votes to stop the clock in the House chambers.”

Kenyan translation: If I get no Republican votes, I get no political cover for its failure.

Bttttt—The One said yesterday that Onadacare would pass. So how can Pubbies be blocking it? My God this guy can’t keep his talking points straight. Today, I think, Gibbs gets out there for the usual BS conference and says Onada was not even aware of the Tea Party on the Capitol Mall. Now think about that for a second.

Haven’t Onada and his band of angry commies been saying for weeks that Tea Partyers are a fringe right wing group. Translation: Tea Partyers are rabble rousers and violent. No proof offered, but saying it is enough for most brain dead demrats.

But I digress. So, if the people who attend Tea Parties have a potential for violence wouldn’t that normally be a cause of concern for the alleged President of the US—and the Secret Service—when the event will take place in The Marxist’s own back yard? You bet it would. Gibbs claim that Onada didn’t know about the march is as stupid a response to the event that I can possibly imagine.

Oh yeah....just ignore what happened on Saturday, in D.C. and all across the nation.

These guy's are digging their own graves......
