Televised Meeting to talk about healthcare..........

ok 4 dems to 1 pub so far...this is getting tiresome

[dagogo redux]

“At this point, I would walk out and tell them to pass their own crap!”

Passing their own crap, since laxatives have failed, will require an enema or digital disimpaction. Hence this meeting.

Reid is a snide, nasty, disengenuous creep. At least Reid will NEVER EVER be mistaken for a statesman.

Never thought he'd be worse than Daschel but he's proven to be just that. Now he ends it all by saying he wants to work with both sides of the aisle, after calling out Lamar?

Is DeMint at the “White House Party” and twittering at the meeting?

[kabar]

Now Obama is speaking. He will hold the line on time. Obama has now spoken twice. Pelosi and Reid have spoken using more time than allocated. Only one Rep speaker and you can bet that Obama will limit the time for the 2nd Rep speaker. The Dems will use most of the time.

[caww]

Bo... a bunch of these things are things we’d like to do.

bridge differences...I don’t know if we can....

[MrDem]

Reid sound very, very ANGRY! Not a good presentation to the public.

[hsalaw]

Now Obozo is saying let’s see if there are areas where we agree. What a dimwit! What does he have staff for? Shouldn’t this already be known? This isn’t some break-out group at a stupid leadership seminar.

Obama trying to push the subject of reconciliation aside. He wants to talk about the issues. I hope the Republicans keep pushing them to take it off the table.

[pollywog]

Hope the Republicans walk out!!!!

[PghBaldy]

Obama- saying they should ignre legislative process and only deal with issues first???

[blueyon]

Obama talking because the dems started to look bad to the Americans watch (Rep 1 Dem 0 - on this round) Obama trying to redeem his side.

[sloop]

timer buzzzzzzzer

[kingattax]

the kenyan is ducking the reconciliation process issue....this would be a good time to WALK OUT

[Tarpon]

Wasn’t the NAZI eugenics health care designed to weed out more than the 45,000 a year Reid talked about? After listening to Justice Ginsberg and her comments about abortion and the original intent of Roe v Wade, it’s clear evil lives in our government.

And when it didn’t cull enough, there was the ovens ... After-all the NAZIs couldn’t afford to feed all those leeches.

[FOXFANVOX]

I admit that I see Lamar's comments thru the prism of knowing how he votes. He was not awful, he did make some good points. But, why not put your best people in the spotlight.

Notice how Harry Reid got to use his favorite phrase: “You are not entitled to your own facts.” Harry should fact check his own statements. [Like the war is lost!] Lamar needed more financial facts and less philosophy.

[onyx]

Truly and now, shut-up Obama!

The ratio sucks, it is GOP time.

[cblue55]

This thing is so wrong on so many levels. Hey Dems: You can’t pass healthcare because your own party doesn’t want it! This junk about Republicans not working with it is the biggest load of Barbara STreisand that I’ve ever seen!

[carolinablonde]

That’s what I was thinking. I’ve heard Lamar Alexander, then Pelosi, then Reid, now Obama. Is there going to be a Republican allowed to speak again?
