Speaker Pelosi tells democrats to sacrifice their career for the unpopular health care bill.

“They know that it will take courage to pass health care. But why are we here? We’re not here just to self-perpetuate our service in Congress. We’re here to do the job for the American people to get them results that gets them not only health security but economic security because the health issue is an economic issue for America’s families.”

My fear is that Rats who might otherwise vote against it will go kamikaze because they think they will be defeated in November anyway.

I would bet that if it looks bad enough that she won’t even run——————after she pushes her whole party over the cliff.

I know two people that work in San Francisco. Both have told me that Queen Pelosi isn’t fairing well in her district. They hate her too. ROFLMAO

Her delusion is over the top.

My thoughts exactly - HER seat is safe, so she doesn't mind tossing her fellow Dems under the bus ...

Bella Pelosi is just like the typical commander of suicide bombers...”I want you to have your 72 virgins while I stay behind the lines”.

Consider this: If they vote in Obamacare, they have talked about it creating 400,000 jobs immediately. How do you create immediate jobs? It isn’t that they will immediately hire nurses, doctors, etc, it is 400,000 bureaucratic jobs, all over the country, to implement this monstrosity. And the beauty of a bureaucratic job is that in the end, you answer to no one, your salary and benefits are intact, you don’t have to run for re-election every two years, and you can run the bureaucracy from your home state, since it will be implemented nationwide.

I bet you that all of these people have been told that there will be jobs for them in the new healthcare bureaucracy for all Dems who vote it through and then lose their seats.

It doesnt take courage to vote for this Health Care Bill, it takes insanity.

The thing sucks to high heaven and only a fool cannot see that.

“Pelosi tells democrats to sacrifice their careers for Obamacare.”

I said this in another post but it’s as clear as day that the Dems have been offered jobs after the election IF they support Obama care. The ones on the edge of losing their seats have a choice,

A) Vote against it and probably lose their seat and end any chance of employment with the Democratic Party

B) Vote for it, definitely lose their seat but ensure that they will have a good income for as long as they want working for the government in some fashion.

Oddly enough THE WORSE POLLS GET get the MORE LIKELY Obama-care PASSES.

If it's a great idea and the nation is panting to have it, why would any career be in jeopardy?

Voting for Obamacare will do more than end the careers of any members of Congress dumb enough to do it. The voters wrath will also be taken out on Democrats on the state and local level and could make the Democratic party almost extinct.

Horse crap, Nancy! If you were really listening to the American people you wouldn't even be doing this.

What lies you weave. You're driving this country into bankruptcy, and trying to kill the best health care in the world. Get your ass to Cuba if you want nationalized health care.

I wish that there were more Republicans who would put their commitment to freedom over their commitment to sustaining their political jobs.
