Wait’ll Ms. Pelosi gets back with the rest of the House drunks in mid January. Conference is gonna be bloody.

There won't be a Conference. San Fran Nan will ram this through on a ping-pong vote. Why worry about what the peasants want?

Actually, while I am adamently against Abortions, it is Fine in my humble opinion for the RATS to give everybody who wants one the privilege! It lessens their future numbers and limits the future numbers of new Liberals!!..:-)

Another feint by the Dems. This is to sucker McConnell and the rest of the pu**ies into backing off. And they will fall for it, already have. Just like Lieberman and Nelson were not going to vote for it. Sure.

“Only please, Brer Fox, please don’t throw me into the briar patch.”

Just put out now, I promise I’ll love you in the morning.

Democrats are liars, and the media promulgates their lies as the truth. I wouldn’t believe a Democrat if he told me it was dark at midnight.

Sad but true. Nelson did that to us as did Stupak.

I think she does mean it... well sort of. I used to be in her district until 2002 when the lines were redrawn. She has a mix of conservaives and liberals with not much in between, a good cross section of Rochester suburbs. She is surly catching heat from conservatives for voting for the House monstrosity and is most likely finished if she has to vote for the Sentate bill; i.e.: everyone will absolutely hate her. So it’s in her best interest to kill it here and now before she has to hang herself.

These Obamacare bills are like uncooked hamburger. The release of the bill is like taking it out of the refrigerator and leaving it at room temperature. It looks less appetizing after one day, and a bit longer it eventually stinks.

By February the stink will be sickening, and no one will want to be near it.

I’m saying over and over again, every hour of delay matters! The more people learn, the more opposition is rising from all quarters. I want those 12 hours back, Mr. McConnell.

The just import their voters thru immigration, legal and illegal. By 2050, one in three Americans will be Hispanic, up from the 1% in 1970.

Similar statements were made when we legalized abortion. Now, those who said, “You can't legislate morality.” are old, like me, and we are facing death panels. With the Lazes faire attitude toward helpless babies, abortion has come full cycle, and old people are in the way.

Is that why the Dems feel they speak freely? LOL

Big Mama is not there to crack the whip. Honestly I would feel embarrased and humiliated letting Pelosi run over me.

I’d love to think that those who oppose and the left who don’t think it is enough could kill it but my BS meter is screaming so I’d bet it has more to do with the goodies they think they will get by holding out longer?

Dream on Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.). The big wigs in your party want this “health bill” as it increases big government and will never get repealed. Our party vote in the future will be Democrat big government or Republican big government and the Dems are confident the brain dead Americans will choose Democrat 4 out of 5 in future elections.

Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.), the chairwoman of the House Rules Committee and co-chairwoman of the Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus

Well ... she's appropriately named.

The House will kill this in committee.

The Senate Bill won't pass a House vote and if the Bill comes out of the committee changed, the Senate won't accept it.

This Bill is going to die a slow, painful death.

No, just another Lucy and the football moment. They like to raise Rep hopes and then crush them. It is meant to dispirit and demoralize.

They have to 'raise hopes', if the Bill was what they wanted, they would just vote and pass it.

Those who want a 'public option' are not happy that the Senate took it out.

They did not vote to subsidize the Insurance Industry.

If we can get more of them to abort themselves, I wouldn’t mind that.

A tiger is a tiger is a tiger. These are Dems. They have an overwhelming majority in Congress. They will pass a health care bill. The only question is what is in it. This infighting should not give Reps any hope or solace.

We do know that there will be mandated health care forcing everyone and every business to join. We do know that they will establish the standards for what acceptable health insurance will include. They are setting the standards and profit margins, which will limit and eventually destroy private insurance in this country.

Any bill is a bad bill regardless of whether a public option is in it or not. There will be a de facto public option regardless. Don't be fooled by the rhetoric or the good cop, bad cop routine.

I am as angry as you are, and wish I was a seven foot Amazon that could take on the government single handed with a club and a tank of boil oil, but babies are babies. Murdering,dismembering, and destroying babies in their mothers womb is not the solution.
I suggest more range time.........
