Democrats sound like they are trying to convince themselves this bill is good
Yes, but I think they’ve already committed to vote no.
The Marxists are voting yes.
Retiring Dem from WA state goes yes from no. Washington(state) Rep. Brian Baird (D). Per FNC.
Ted Poe - you go!
I hate to say this, but I will be very surprised if he votes no. He probably got some pay-off. Folks, we have to target every Democrat that we can possibly defeat in November. That goes without saying. Does anyone have a list of RATS that are vulnerable?
I am too frazzled and brain-dead at this point to do any analysis of something like that.
Like the characterin Caprica said when asked how do you murder some one in cold blood - just pretent it isn’t real...
Are they ALL truly this dense? The spinning today is making my head hurt. But, what a beautiful Rovian moment it was on This Week!!! Love you Karl!
This is a moment we will look back on...as the slide begins downward at a quickening pace. Mark was EXACTLY on target. This is a dark day.
We just keep fighting.
We never give up.
Those fools will regret what they have done.
We WILL stop them!

Update 3-21, 10:10 AM (from MacAoidh): I’m working on a piece for the front page (I’ll post a link here when it’s done) which discusses reasons why the assumption of inevitability that Obamacare once enacted will continue to grow is false. As said many times elsewhere, this would be the first social legislation of major scale to be enacted without bipartisan support, and it’s also the first time the majority which would enact such legislation would be likely to be turned out of office immediately thereafter. There are other reasons why this one is different, and I’ll get into those, plus expand on the above, in the piece I’m working on for later today.
God damn Baird too.
He’s retiring, so it’s a “Blank-U” vote.
“It’s that last phrase that needs to change!”
Good luck with that.
++++++++++++++++++
Good luck to you too - we’re all going to need it. And beyond luck we’re going to need self-discipline and power from on High, if you ask me. Maybe we’re barking up the wrong tree trying to fight the RATS. We need to fight Apathy instead - which, if we defeat it, would end up defeating the whole RAT presupposition about politics and life. I’ve thought that my whole life - it’s just writ large today.
In any case we’re all doing as much as we can, including appealing to the good Lord’s intervention in this matter.
After this vote, all the Rats are vulnerable.
Are we POSTITIVE about Stupak? Where is this being confirmed. Ed Morrissey is questioning it.
~~~~~~
Breaking: Stupak voting yes?
So far, the news has been reported by MS-NBC on its broadcast and website (as a banner headline) as “sources say,” and reported similarly by C-SPAN, but as of this moment, no written report has surfaced with any details.
This could be a false report, but it’s been no secret for the last few days that Stupak has worked hard to find a way to vote for this bill. We’ll see if the promise of an executive order from Barack Obama did the trick.
More to come ….

“We have 3 options to beat back this communist coup.....
1. Ballot box - in 2010 & 2012 to overturn this and the new “programs” coming (Amnesty, Cap&Tax, etc)
2. Legal box - i.e. lawsuits and hope SCOTUS overturns on basis of unconstitionality
3. Ammo box - No explanation needed”
Good One. I like Number 3 the best.
Ted Poe rocks!!! The difference between Dem vs. Repub statements today is tragic. We are so far apart.
after the speaker speaks..he sighs just about every time.
Per The Corner:
Stupak. . . [Daniel Foster]
. . .is a yes, Bob confirms.

“Unruly” as in British politics? Or... how?
