Anybody going to this? Where exactly will it be? I'm in striking distance. I'd like to start on my sign today.

What is he signing? The reconciliation is not done.

He is signing the Senate bill passed by the House. Then, and only then, this sham will be sent to the Senate(the reconciliation portion) for their vote. The Senate bill has to be signed into law prior to the reconciliation going to the Senate. Otherwise, there would be nothing to reconcile. Hope that helps.

He cares not; he’s signing the Senate bill version complete with kickbacks.

Why should the Senate bother? The House has already shown Rats can get away with worse than murder.

The GOP is hoping above all else that they can get even the slightest change in the reconciliation which would force the House to re-vote. It is a long shot, though....

They will love him in Iowa City...Iowa's version of San Fransisco.

Eastern Iowa has gone communist, and that's the large population centers...hence Tom Harkin, our embarrassing Senator...

Waiting for a Pub House in 2010 may be the best tactic. Then the GOP owns the committees. And can also IMPEACH the bustard.

heads to Iowa City..trying to rally consumers behind it

Iowa City, aka the People's Republic of Johnson County.

He will find "consumers" there alright. Consumers at the public teat. Gobs of 'em.

Who knows, some "citizens" might just show up on the streets as well.

You ain’t kidding that’s why Iowa went gay-marriage without a vote in the legislature (their philosopher kings kindly did it for them) and the legislature refuses to touch a constitutional initiative.

Heaven forbid any get the gumption to try to get a job. Because Bummercare will heavily penalize that.

Oh, they have jobs. It’s just that all the jobs in Iowa City are in government. The University of Iowa and its major hospital, primarily.

Obummer should be met, wherever he goes, with MASSIVE rallies against Obamacare. I’m sure he’ll stack his crowds or limit access to those who favor this mess, but if the crowds are big enough, it will continue to send the message that we the people are totally p.o.’d that this has been crammed down our throats & we want “replace & repeal”. We need to keep the pressure on and it needs to be unrelenting.

Huge “YOU LIE” signs would be nice, to be raised whenever Bummer tells a whopper.
