Obama To Rally Senate Dems on Healthcare (Obama goes to Hill today)

UPI.com ^ | December 6, 2009

It’s probably already underway, silently. If Health Care gets rammed through, I expect a full blown tax revolt, liberals and conservatives. We will be lucky if that’s all it is, civil war wouldn’t shock me at all.

[catnipman]

So, does “rally” mean a meeting with pom-poms and rah-rahing, or is this a code word for billion dollar payoffs behind closed door for each recalcitrant Dim Senator?

[MinorityRepublican]

Bingo. Once passed, I simply think it’s time to secede.

I read the headline quickly and thought the word was “Hell,” not “Hill.”

I need my eyes checked.

This is the most hateful president I have ever seen. He hates this country, and impugns it whenever he gets a chance.

And to think he's living off the blood, sweat and tears of American citizens is beyond belief.

Perhaps this will open the eyes to the sleepy voters out there in 2010.

[chris_bdba]

Please God let it fall apart! The majority of Americans do not want this and thiose that do have this false utopian dream that it most certainly is not what this bill is.

[sunmars]

Am I missing something or isnt it Bozo Biden’s job to rally the senate?

Obama as usual has to drop his face right into it....primadonna supreme.

They do not realize how much resistance there is to this Insurance giveaway. They are listening to Harry Reid and Pelosi It reminds me of how television advertisers listen to Neilson and act accordingly. They will learn in the 2012 elections how sincere Reid and Pelosi are.

The Republicans are not very different from Democrats .
We need a massive public outrage . Most are content to watch footballs or American Idol so Obama will do as he pleases knowing the worst he’ll get is some lame tea party to deal with ( which he laughed at )Desperate times call for desperate measures. I crack up at people saying nov 2010 we;ll get em ! Or Sarah will take care of it in 2012 Like we’re really going to be here in NOV 2010 and able to do anything at all about things. 2012 and Sarah as the hero ? Forget about that totally .

[sonic109]

There wont be a 2012 election ..or one that is real by then..You’ll have 50 million illegals made instant citizens voting Dem and a total shutdown of ANY opposition what so ever!
Get real.

[sonic109]

Too late.

Well said, samtheman. I object to the very PREMISE of this healthcare takeover, not to all the little deals that can supposedly dilute this monster. I expect B.O. to dip his hand into the giant piggy bank— otherwise known as our tax dollars and most likely unspent stimulus money—to bribe, intimidate, and lure any recalcitrants. But just for once, I’d like to see someone—anyone—stand up to him and say “No!”

[1951Boomer]

No, cvq, I think your eyes are just fine!

[1951Boomer]

I’ve thought from the beginning of this healthcare takeover strategy that the kitchen sink (abortion) was thrown in, because the Dems knew that it would be a bargaining chip to ensure passage of the rest of this rotting sewer of a bill.

Demoncrats are such hypocrites and liars.

I read Tip O'Neill's book Man of the House years ago.

In one chapter, O'Neill goes off on President Reagan, because Reagan had the audacity to ask if he could stop by Capitol Hill to talk to members of Congress about the budget. O'Neill said he called up Reagan's chief of staff in a tirade, and screamed into the phone that Reagan "Wants to come up here to LOBBY!" Then he told Reagan to go to hell, and wouldn't allow a frickin visit from the President.

Of course, when the Community Organizer wants to come by, its all bells and candy rainbows from the Dims.

Just make another national speech, Barry....you have done 36+ so far, another one won’t hurt......

[glock rocks]

My FRiend,

I place my faith in Providence.

[SunkenCiv]

I really wish these BENIGHTED FOOLS would drop this abortion restriction effort. We don't WANT the bill to pass, in ANY form. What are you trying to do? Make it GOOD ENOUGH to pass?

Thanks samtheman. Lots of good comments in this thread.

“NATIONAL STRIKE NEEDED
AGGRESSIVE PROTEST NEEDED
TWO WORDS:

TAX REVOLT! “

I disagree. We are beyond that now. Time to take up arms. The second Civil War is coming.

REVOLUTION!

They are working on Sunday?

They're desperate.
