Not delusional...progressive.

Beck did a really good job explaining the difference between a “normal” Dem and a progressive.

After the MA loss, he said, if what he believe about the administration was really true (progressive and followers of Alinsky like politics) they would double down and push even harder, even though it is political suicide.

But if they were just normal, run of the mill, Dems, they’d do like Clinton after the 1994 epiphany, move to the center and triangulate.

[Jim Noble]

Does the Democrat Congress want to commit political suicide (don’t have a job in 2010) to pass this Marxist agenda

The jobs they have now, they can lose.

After they create 118 new agencies to run hospitals and medical services, they will all be appointed to jobs they can never lose.

Huck is right. They need to do this, win or lose. They control enough of both parties that they can turn defeat into victory, because they know what they are doing.

The GOP? Not so much.

The great thing about this is that Plouffe is going to be leading the Dems in 2010 according to the WH. I hope the Democrats follow him.

Haaa the new Obama guru has spoken!

Just ignore the polls, ignore the people, do what Dear Reader wants you to do!

So the 0-bots really are this stupid!

[Ditter]

I have never heard of Plouffe. Can someone spell it phonetically for me?

[darkangel82]

IF they pass this, the Democrats are the oranges and we are the juicer.

(P.S.: Health care is a jobs creator.)

Of course! Burden employers with more mandates and they will create jobs.

Why didnt I think of that!

[Shannon]

It is truly encouraging to see that Obama brought Plouffe back into the fold.

I agree. When I read Plouffe was coming to the rescue I thought it was great news. Just shows that it still hasn't dawned on O that he needs to govern. Plouffe helped with the campaign. He's not going to know any more about governing than O does. Yep, onward....right off the cliff.

A collective flop?

Me thinks these folks suffer from “Ostrich-Syndrome”!

Even if, not.enough.time.

The only thing the dems can do to save themselves is to pull out all the stops and push further to the left as hard as they can. They should purge their party of all blue dogs and moderates. They should then hunker down and spend all their money on ad campaigns and work more closely with their MSM campaign arm and hammer their message to the public at large.

[Richard Kimball]

Parents won't have to worry their children will be denied coverage just because they have a preexisting condition. Workers won't have to worry that their coverage will be dropped because they get sick.

You won't have to worry about what to do with your left over tax dollars. Give EVERYTHING to the Feds, and we'll make sure it all works out for you.

[freespirited]

Rhymes with Puff.

Does David Plouffe remember the Tea Party movement last summer that railed against the health care plan in the first place? Keep it up and the Democrats will suffer their biggest defeat since 1994--probably more so!

Pass health care rationing, I order you pass health care rationing ...

We tried that boss

[screaminsunshine]

The Socialist Democrats can only get votes by purchasing them. With Government redistribution plans. However they are out of OPM and votes are getting too expensive to buy. Now they have to try to sell Communism itself. KaChing...NO SALE.

I have never heard of Plouffe. Can someone spell it phonetically for me?

LOL. I don't know that anyone knows how to pronounce it. I do know the FR spell check hates it. Maybe it's "loaf". I think I'll go with that.
