Uhh, Pass me a mess of them calories, uhh OK? and don't tell Michelle.

US President Barack Obama speaks with patrons while eating lunch at "Mrs Wilkes' Dining Room" in Savannah, Georgia on March 2. Days after Obama was warned during a check-up to avoid high-fat foods because of his elevated cholesterol, he asked onlookers to let him get away with a small indulgence. (AFP/File/Saul Loeb)

The Presidents No.1 job is to protect this country. He totally ignores this fact. He also totally ignores our military.

Apparently Amercians don’t need any stinkin’ jobs this year.
The Won has to keep his priorities you know.

What, a speech at 1:45 pm? No prime time seizure of all the networks? What’s the matter, Barry? Why aren’t you really pushing your “health plan”?

[BigLittle]

the president's allies were expected to rely on an infrequently used parliamentary tactic called "reconciliation" that requires a simple majority

[midnightcat]

is his speech really going to go over that well? People are sick of him.

[american colleen]

I'm completely convinced that Jobs for Americans is not on the agenda of this president because the more out of work, the more they are dependent on government services and checks.

We are sunk if this healthcare plan passes.

Point of grammar:Was.. Was.. Was ..

Will he or won't he?

WTF! This is about the 4th or 5th "Final Push" for this P.O.S. idea. 0, as well as congress, need to get their chit together and let this B.S. die.

What are the 4 Republican ideas that he plans to add? Are they tort reform, allowing insurance companies to sell across state lines like all other insurance, no federal funding for abortion, no cuts to medicare?

I wonder what the playing field will look like if Obama wins this fight.
My concern is he will bring fighting down to a new level of partisanship and distrust — a level he created.
I remember during Reagan's term, he and Tip O’Neal spoke on the phone after Reagan won his stimulas package. O’Neal congradulated the President for winning the day. Both O’Neal and Reagan respected each other. Can you imagine Obama or Pelossi ever having any level of respect for any republican? How are Democrats going to look at each other after they “win” this battle and going against the will of the people? Shameful.
If you cannot plan the game with any sense of honor, do not play the game

Which is why Zero needs to pass health-care reform NOW. The government needs the tax revenues from health-care reform as soon as possible to continue the Ponzi scheme. All the health-care ‘plans’ I've read up on have no health-care reform until 2013 at the earliest, but the taxing for it starts immediately.

It’s not that they don’t respect Republicans , they do not fear them .

[b4its2late]

He’s going on TV? That’s something new.......

This is about the 4th or 5th “Final Push” for this P.O.S. idea.
