Also, it was reasonable to expect to hold off tyrants with mere rifles and cannons at that time. Bunker busters anybody?

Democrats ALWAYS sell out because they have no true morals. They will be slaughtered big time in November and they all know it. But I guess they they’d rather get voted out having passed healthcare than not passing anything.
All this drama has been democrats pretending to be truly undecided when they were going to vote for it all along. They were just trying to look “conflicted and serious”. And they were just waiting for the right deal. Also by delaying their decision publicly, they hoped to avoid massive protests by their own local constituents.
This is a done deal. Lets see how it plays out in the senate, the courts, and the elections over the next few years.
It’s the end of the democratic party, but a sad day for our country. Very sad.

America.....was a great idea while it lasted. May your chains rest lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were ever our countryman...

How can an Executive Order overturn a legislated law? It can't.

It just gives Stupak an excuse to cover his butt. If Obama never issues the order he can feign outrage at Obama and the democrat party and get more anti-dem votes. In the meantime he epitomizes the term “Sell out”.

Texas? where are you? Our legislature is (by law) out of session until next year, although there is an effort underway to get our governor to call a special session.

The problem is that Obama will veto
anything the Republicans pass that he does not like, and there is no way they will have enough votes to override. As they've done in the past, the Democrats will claim that the GOP is trying to shut down the government, starve little babies and prevent poor Granny from getting her Social Security check. The news media will amplify the message and the Republicans will wind up caving.
In the end, Congress is not going to solve this: we and our state legislatures are. But it is going to get ugly.

I beg to differ. One can always trust the Dems to vote for Marxist projects. That is their entire mantra. They really never really repudiate that view. On the other hand since the demise of Ron Reagan, republican politicians merely espouse conservative ideals but immediately repudiate them when in office. Until there is a thorough house cleaning among republican politicians that party can no longer have my trust.

Nothing needs to be passed, and the American anger is enough that they might actually LIKE to see the federal government shut down.

Well, I believed that when I Heard about Stupak voting yes, now that I know he is voting NO, maybe we still have hope
To: HiTech RedNeck
Some commentator (don't know his name) being interviewed by Megan Kelly on Fox just said Pelosi walked past the protesters entering the Capitol as if she was a part of a new Civil Rights movement, stating that there had been a racial slur yelled at a Congressman yesterday. It was sickening to hear this commentator repeating the lies and turning up the flames taking out our nation.

Stroke of a pen and it is repealed ! Zero will renege on the E.O on abortion.
To: andy58-in-nh
And in the meantime, our own drum beat must keep up to make Obama a pariah, to the point that even Rats would be willing to convict him upon impeachment.

True, but they aren’t going to say they’re marxists. They feint to the right when people are paying attention.
