Louisiana Senate Democrat: I'd Vote Again for Obamacare—Tomorrow
Weekly Standard ^ | August 17, 2013 | Daniel Halper

Louisiana Senate Democrat Mary Landrieu is doubling down on her support for Obamacare. She says, if a vote for Obamacare were held tomorrow, she'd again vote to support the bill.

"No more free riders. Everybody has to share responsibility so we can keep a healthy work force and keep it strong. And I can give you more information about it. If I had to vote for the bill again, I'd vote for it tomorrow. There are a lot of good things about this bill," said Landrieu.

Landrieu is up for reelection in 2014.

That declaration was by Mary Landieu this past August. I bet now that she wishes she had kept her mouth shut but the quote is THERE to haunt her in her next election. Some intrepid reporter should NOW ask her if she would vote for ObamaCare again.

"No more free riders. Everybody has to share responsibility so we can keep a healthy work force and keep it strong"

Is that what Obamacare did, Mary? Is everyone now paying for their healthcare? Orwell would be proud.

I assume the good people of Louisiana will see that quote roughly 1,432 times per person, on average, by election day next year.

This amplifies Landrieu's current mindset: Landrieu is one of the 16 Senators paranoid about losing their seats who infamously stopped by the WH the other day (cackle).

Now, Obomba is going to Louisiana---and Landrieu is flying down with him on AF One----BUT she says she can't attend his speech---b/c she has a long-standing engagement about 25 miles away.

BTW, Landrieu's paper trail of support extends to video: caught on tape on the Senate floor parroting Obaha's ruinous phrase," If you like your plan, you can keep it."

My prediction is that they ALL will double down. At this point, only a full repeal of this monstrosity will “fix” it-—and none of them is willing to give up an inch.

Your question shouldn’t be addressed to Mary. It should be addressed tonher handlers. Who are the ones who actually make decisions for her.

A free rider is a single male or the elderly that don’t need maternity insurance and ask why they are being forced to pay for it anyway. Don’t they understand that we all need to share the cost of the anchor babies that are delivered at no cost to the illegal (excuse me, undocumented)mother?

My first thought was, "Would another vote come with another payoff?"

” Everybody has to share responsibility so we can keep a healthy work force and keep it strong”

sounds like she’s talking about plantation breeding stock, not Americans. Esp since the very young and the elderly are not part of the “work force” and subject to cull by Dr Death, Ezekiel Emmanuel, Obama heath policy advisor, in his “Complete Lives” system of calculating the worth to society of a life
