Retiring Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va., said Monday charged that President Obama's handling of the sweeping healthcare overhaul unnecessarily caused a great deal of fear in the country.

The Virginia Democrat, in a wide-ranging interview on MSNBC's "Daily Rundown," told host Chuck Todd that it was his "great regret" that the Obama administration scared Americans with a large bill that lacked direction.

Webb does not regret it as much as I do. I am sure that rich p.o.s will be able to find a doctor and pay cash.

I don’t think he realizes he’s admitting to one if two things: either he’s a lying POS, or a stupid POS.

He is as responsible for it being thrust upon us as much as the Obama admin. Amazing how these guys collect the pay check, and lifelong benefits vote for .......and then express regrets that bad things are happening to us (directly from their actions) as if they weren’t even around.

I remain unconvinced the DNC isn’t cutting it’s losses.

Supporting this guy signs you on to a whole new level of KNOWN baggage.

They could lie about him in 2008. Now everyone knows this road-apple for exactly what he is.

Everybody knows Webb likes to startle people. This time he helped the village idiot startle everybody.

Hope he retires somewhere else.

Harry Reid paid a whole carton of cigarettes for Webb, and made sure he got his money’s worth.

Webb, here’s an idea, buy a house in Maryland.
