WASHINGTON, July 20 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Monday the August deadline he had set for Congress to pass initial healthcare legislation may "spill over," but repeated that he wanted reforms enacted soon.
"I want this done now," Obama said in an interview on the PBS program "The Newshour with Jim Lehrer."
"Now, if there are no deadlines, nothing gets done in this town. ... If somebody comes to me and says, it's basically done; it's going to spill over by a few days or a week -- you know, that's different," he said.

FU U POS
I want you to get out of the WH and head on back to thugtown. FUBO!!!!!!!!!!! We want our country back.
He's losing his Socialized Medicine offensive, that's for sure
It was only Saturday that he virtually put his job on the line when he berated congress to get Socialized Medicine passed by the August recess, two weeks.
That is what De Mint was talking about as his Waterloo. He took The Kenynonesian up on his challenge.
It would be like a Parliamentary "vote of no confidence", is what De Mint was thinking.
If there were no passage of Socialized Medicine by the recess, The Obammunist's own party would have reputed him.
So al-Obami backslid to Christmas. He has suffered an irreparable defeat. Socialized Medicine is almost dead.
yitbos
Oops
I’m worried that this won’t pass, so get busy, dimocrats!
Hate those typos!
Cap and trade hasn’t passed yet. The senate vote has been put off until sept because the dimwits know it won’t pass right now. Bozo is in a hurry to pass nationalized health care because he knows the longer it is put off the more people will learn what a crock it is. It is in danger of not passing right now, that part is not a setup. Have you watched his last two speeches? He cannot control his anger in them and he is going to “take center stage” on this issue(as if he hasn’t been all along). Pelosi and Bozo are really pushing this because they know if it doesn’t pass before the August recess the Blue dog dems and republicans will catch he** from their constituents, just as they have been catching it over cap and tax and it will definitely no pass after the recess is over.
My mother always said spit, but it amounts to the same thing:)
Your dad must have met my dad. ;>)
Buck Ofama!!
The MSM has added, graciously, that O simply fears the posting of Sept and Oct. job numbers, and thus was pushing hard for August.
He know those reports will stick the stake in the heart of this mess for good, as do all the Blue Dogs.
I have noted that the D.C. press corps is starting to change its tune also. The AP and the LA Times had articles today implying a serious lack of reality,and major B.S., at the WH lately. The AP article on Health care was, nearly, brutal on this point.
“I am hoping that I will see him break down on camera like a little girl. “
