White House Still Weighing Whether to Push Health Care Through Congress
Fox News ^ | Updated January 24, 2010 | Fox News

Gibbs said that Brown may have campaigned on stopping the health care bill but that's not why voters elected him over Democrat Martha Coakley.

"More people voted to express their support for Barack Obama than to oppose him," Gibbs said.

"More people voted to express their support for Barack Obama than to oppose him," Gibbs said.

This is the clown that the pinheads in the MSM said is the smartest person to ever hold this position.

“”More people voted to express their support for Barack Obama than to oppose him,” Gibbs said.”

Hugo Chavez must be wondering whether he could rent these nutcases for a while - they make him look sane.

So let’s try again - if you support Obama, then why would you vote for someone who OPPOSES him on EVERY major issues?

The Democrat leaning voters of Mass. voted for a Republican, and broke the Democrat majority in the Senate, in order to show support for Obama and his agenda? Is this guy for real?????????

I guess they didn’t get the message from voters this time either.

Glenn Beck has said it best the day just hours before Brown’s win....we are NOT dealing with ‘normal’ democrats who would typically move center after the wake up call of Brown’s win...what we are dealing with are PROGRESSIVES, who, in Alinsky style, will NOT change their agenda...but WILL, instead, slam their feet down on the accelerator!

Our enemy isn’t the Dems or the Rhinos...it’s the PROGRESSIVES in BOTH parties!!

This is why you just have to dump these people, the chance of them recovering from their partisan paychosis is nil.

Dems reaction mimics grief of a loved one; tears, anger, denial and finally reality. I fear reality will set in, but I hope not until Nov.

I watched today Gibbs on FoxNews Gibbs said that Brown may have campaigned on stopping the health care bill but that's not why voters elected him over Democrat Martha Coakley. "More people voted to express their support for Barack Obama than to oppose him," Gibbs said.Photobucket I almost believed he believed it.

Hey Obama, Valerie, Gibbels, Rahmie and Axelgrease, we're on to you. Go ahead, make our day, ram Socialized Medicine through Congress. Then do Card Check, Amnesty, Cap and Tax and oh, don't forget Gun Control. Yeah! Bring it on. The more the better. That will really help our cause of No Democrats to be elected on November 2, 2010! Oh, and I hope you keep ignoring us, because that will insure it. Have a good day. . . .

"More people voted to express their support for Barack Obama than to oppose him," Gibbs said. ..with a straight face, and without blinking.

Unbelievable. These people are totally delusional.
