And it ain’t none of the peoples’ damn business what we’re doing, we’re RATS and we can screw this nation any damn way we please.
Your thoughts?
Jump!!! Come on Democrats! Jump!!!
It could be that Obama wants to hold the photo op meeting to portray the Reps as obstructionists leaving the Dems their only choice, the nuclear option, i.e., reconciliation. Then the Dems could invite the Reps to join in the amendment process to perfect the passed legislation.

Or, in other words.....

If the demonrats were worrie about their jobs before what do you think they will be thinks ffter what they have seen in past few months. any fence sitter will run for cover before they vote for this bill. I hope they do , though so that we can have a clean sweep in November 10 and again in 2012.
I agree with your analysis. And don’t forget that the reconciliation process is just the first stage. The House will then start amending the passed legislation to placate their constituencies. The Reps will then be faced with a fait acompli and must choose whether to participate in the amendment process.
That's a very perceptive point ... and one of the dangers of boycotting the meeting.

The Dim Rats have a choice. Kill the bill and start over in a TRUE, above board, honest fashion. That would be reasonable if they were interested in healthcare, per se. But they are not. This entire fiasco is about the socialist takeover of America and its citizens and the destruction of their rights under the Constitution. Healthcare, my arse.
IF YOU ARE REFERING TO A pRESIDENTIAL-REPUBLICAN SUMMIT, I HAVE GRAVE DOUBTS IT WILL HAPPEN. PERHPAS SOME DISTRACTION WILL OCCUR TO TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER SUCH A MEETING. COULD BE THAT WILL BE THE DEMONRAT’S “TRICK”.
You say you want a revolution....well you know we all want to change the world....
The democrat criminals in the US Congress, Obama and the White House cadre don’t seem to understand that they are playing with fire doing this. We have the guns, we have the numbers, we have right on our side.
I hope this delusional b**ch tries it.
Yeah, send a couple of conservative members of the financial services committee, one each to represent the House and Senate GOP caucuses.
And why would they not be vunerable now?
It’s all down to Axelrod’s political analysis. He’s their Karl Rove. If they follow his advice, they pull the trigger.
I think it will come down to the judgment of a few Rat senators, whether they agree with Axelrod.
As for House Rats who lose their seats, they will be given lucrative positions at Fannie or Freddie or SEIU or an ambassadorship or some such thing.
Dick Morris described this weeks ago. Supposedly 52 Dem Senators have signed a letter promising House Dems that if they pass the Senate bill as is, then the President signs it; then, under budget reconciliation rules, the Dem Senators have promised to do away with provisions the House doesn’t like, such as tax on Union “Cadillac” plans. I’m not sure how it gets past Stupak, since these wink and nod provisions would be tailored to appeal to the leftist House members.
