Terezza Heinz Kerry must have some gin soaked sour grapes to share.
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
yeah, the Dems used shoddy maneuvers to implement a terrible Senate plan. It must be Scott Brown’s fault. How about the same people in MA and all over the country against this bill are boiling mad, and are going to boot these thugs out of Washington.
revisionist history - reports were that Pelosi and Reid had struck a House-Senate conference deal just days before Brown’s election. Without the 41st vote, it would have been Rahmed through the House then the senate on the same 60 to 40 vote from the prior December.
“when you are plowing a field, don’t look back!”
don’t worry about Brown. We’re gonna just elect 10 more. And then 10 more in 2012. keep moving.
has anyone look up the supposed tea party activist?
Between this Axelrod fax in propaganda piece and the phony huffington post interview of Senator Cornyn . Its been a busy day for the Obama smear team today.
Alinksy 101 - kick and try to drag your enemy after a lost battle with non stop relentless phony bad news.
Oh, BS. If Brown didn’t block the bill by changing the vote count by his mere presence, then the Dems would have voted for it via their majority and we’d have the same result. Except the American people (who might actually care) have seen what this devious cabal is capable of doing.
Now as to Scott Brown being a RINO, that’s a perfectly valid concern, but I agree with many here, that he’s probably as good as it’s going to get from MA.
This article is just a shallow attempt to dispirit.
Ping to you
This is a terrible article he was elected after the senate bill was passed, and he hasn’t had a chance to vote on reconciliation. What is he supposed to do?
So is McQueen, just how is a senator supposed to influence a vote in the House ?
He might be a bit of a Rino to some, but that’s the scene in his environment, the people he’s representing.
He won The Swimmer’s seat, what more do people want ?
We can only hope he keeps it, he’ll need a lot of help.
This joker is an idiot. It took them another 2 months after Scott Brown’s election to pass this. If Martha Coakley had won it would have been done in January.
Remember Scott Brown is the 41st possible vote on all filibusters not just this one.
We lost the healthcare battle and we got straddled with a RINO.
Brown is still the 41st vote on the next round in the Senate.
Pretty much.
With Scott Brown in the US Senate, it makes it possible to take over the US Senate in November, then get the needed 60 seat majority in 2012 to kill the bill. Scott Brown forced the Democrats to use sleazy borderline illegal procedural maneuvers to "pass" the bill, that makes it possible to kill the bill in court.
Does the author not realize that the bill wasn’t passed on a public referendum?
The public referendum on the bill won’t happen till November.
And on that day, the author can eat it.
Get outta here.
I take it you;d much rather have Martha Coakley in the US Senate, whereby the Democrats would passed the bill before 0bozo even gave his state of the union speech, and have done it without using parliamentary maneuvers, which would have that made it much harder to challenge the bill in court? The Democrats will be laughing at the other side of their faces when we clobber them in 2010 and 2012 and repeal this bill.
