Its Live on Fox
Just checking in, have the GOP attendees caved-in yet or look like they will?
Republicans have to pound that healthcare is NOT a constitutional right, and it is not the public’s responsibility to pay for it. Don’t get caught in the trap of agreeing with the Dems that everyone deserves healthcare-(including illegal aliens slipped in by Piglosi)
Want a great effect? I have c-span, michelle malkin, and foxnews playing this sham at the same time and it makes it all much clearer. It’s like that commercial during the campaign when the chick throws something through the screen.
CNN cuts away to their own panel of pundits/commentators, rather than listening to the ramblings of Hoyer and Obama.
Thanks to all for the replies, have to ready for work.
Loved what Lamar Alexander said:
Mr. President, the only thing that will be bipartisan will be the opposition to this bill.
I cannot stand to listen to that arrogant, snooty piece of work posing in high office. Chin in the air...sounds like a rap song.
When, please tell me, did custom and etiquette change so that the President now calls members of Congress by their first names?
Nancy this, Harry that, Lamar & Tom...etc. I’m waiting for one of those Congresscritters to call him Barack, or BO.
I have NEVER heard a previous President address members of Congress in such a slovenly manner. It’s always Senator, or Congressman, etc. Or, Doctor, in the case of Tom Coburn. Didn’t his mama teach him any manners? Wait...I already know the answer to that. It’s the same answer as to why he puts his feet all over the WH furniture and AF 1.
Furthermore, the President did not even look like he was listening during Dr. Coburn’s entire presentation.
We are NOT close! are the Republicans nuts? Didn’t they hear us? KILL THE BILL! Start over! Do not waver-do not compromise!
We have NOTHING in common with the Dems and the Republicans need to tell them that! What the H?
O look like he needs a cig break.
Does anyone know if they have yet raised the issue of
whether or not this bill would be constitutional?
Would the bill stand up to a constitutional challenge?
Pubbies keep getting interrupted and shut down.
McConnell lists the time used by each side.
Dems have spoken nearly 2x more than that of Pubbies.
He is the President so his opening speech and interruptions don’t count for the Dem’s time? What an arrogant ass!
Obama’s attitude seems to be:
We’ve discussed this issue, therefore it is resolved.
[And he is going to push for the existing bill.]
‘I don’t count my time because I’m the President’ — Obama explains why Dems have controlled more speaking time than Republicans...
BO’s gotta break.
Lady just handed him a folded note.
[National emergency or several-cigs break needs his immediate attention.]
Does anyone know if there is a Twitter hash tag for this conference? I’d like to follow it.
Obama is being arrogant... He just said “I do not want Mitchel to give me the time clock count again” or something to that effect.
