Stalin would love this.

[hstacey]

Bring it on you morons!!!

[illiac]

Hopefully, all these companies will offer a polite “no thanks”.....

[OCCASparky]

Great, so CEO's in charge of multi-billion dollar corporations get called on the carpet in front of Rep. Pig-Nose and a bunch of idiots that haven't run so much as pantyhose in their lives.

We are well and truly screwed.

[DesertRhino]

They don’t care, and barely know, what was in it. The only thing that mattered to them was for the Kenyan to sign some bill entitled “health care”.

[ExTexasRedhead]

RATs and Elitists in Congress, watch this and smell your defeat. Bye Bye Socialists.

I wish for once these company owners would just be good Americans, speak the truth, stand up to the Waxmans of the world and have some faith in doing the right thing. Stop trying to make deals with the devil.

Obama “Chicago style thug tactics” are alive and well. The harsh truth here is that our Government has been hijacked by Marxists that do not REPRESENT US, but rather, seek to CONTROL US. Scary stuff, folks.

Wellll.... if judge greer (terri's death judge) can thumb his nose at Congress (HE was supeoned (sp?) to appear in congress & ignored it), I guess these companies can do the same, yes?

Heil Waxman! Heil Pelosi! Heil Reid! Heil HolyO!/sarc

Looks like that may a reality not far away!!! Where is a time machine to go back and prevent this current reality from happening?!? VOTES COUNT! VOTE THEM ALL OUT. (That is, if we DO have an election--there may come an 'emergency' where HolyO declares martial law and a 'delay' of elections and an extension of those now in office (all unconstitutional, but what does he care?!) for our own good...STAY VIGILANT. "STAND NOW. STAND TOGETHER. STAND FOR WHAT IS RIGHT."--Sarah Palin, final words of "Going Rogue"

[The Antiyuppie]

I don’t think that they can be compelled to show up. Not a single one should.

[bergmeid]

Threaten this, threaten that, this pseudo government is all about coercion and threatening.

Listen up you Democrap morons, if all of this was so wonderful, no threatening and coercion would be necessary now, would it?

Hey Obama, if you are reading this, we’ve had more than enough of your sh_t!!!!!

[Radagast the Fool]

I wonder how many of the CEOs of these companies gave money to zero?

[fungoking]

“I wish for once these company owners would just be good Americans, speak the truth, stand up to the Waxmans of the world and have some faith in doing the right thing. Stop trying to make deals with the devil.”

Bingo! They should go in and lay out the truth about how the expensive this new reform really is.

[The Antiyuppie]

At the very least, they should look for a continuance until November 3rd, 2010.

[pillut48]

If they do show up, I hope they put on a show that would shame the red carpet at the Oscars! Fly in on those big personal jets, drive in with those big expensive cars, wearing thousand dollar suits. Those capitalism promoting companies EARN their money (yes, some reform is needed, but earning money isn’t a bad thing!) while those lunkheads in Congress merely STEAL other peoples’ money!!!! >:-(

First druther is that the companies snub the LIEberals in Congress and tell them they can’t make it because they’ve got their shirt sleeves rolled up and they are hard at work trying to save their companies against all odds!

Pretty much Nazi Germany right now. Where are the camps?

"I don’t think that they can be compelled to show up."

I don't know why so many people think this. Of course they could be compelled. So far, it's just a letter. But Waxman (who is a prolific subpoena issuer) could simply issue a subpoena if he they decline. Congressional subpoena power is robust - virtually unlimited.
