    Now that the Democrats no longer have a filibuster proof majority...

    Who wants to explain to me why a bunch of currently seated members of that party STILL want to force this healthcare bill through. In their own words, "no matter what"?

    A "healthcare" bill that really just benefits to big evil, for profit, insurance companies?

    Surreal is a good word I think....

    Nancy and Harry are going to be so unhappy . . . . .

    Senator Jim Webb puts out a statement that puts the notion of a quick Senate vote out of reach and pretty much makes a certification fight moot:

    In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government process. It is vital that we restore the respect of the American people in our system of government and in our leaders. To that end, I believe it would only be fair and prudent that we suspend further votes on health care legislation until Senator-elect Brown is seated.

    LOL, gnashing of teeth, too?

    Bwahahahaha,
    msnbc has Nora and Rachel trying to make people believe that was a soft serve cone, not a waffle cone filled with poop.

    I said it before, It will not be long before they start turning on themselves and eating their young.

    John Kerry's next?


    Nancy Pelosi is on the menu too.

    Don't ---- with the Truck.

    ------------

    The whispers and hands of the Dems shoving Coakley in front of the bus ticks me off.

    No one wants to accept any blame for the loss-let the woman swim, she'll get tired and the sharks will get her, later on.

    What a bunch of pansies-the sent the "big gun" out to stump for her and all she got was a *pew, pew" reminiscent of the "Cat Tank" on ICHC.

    Chivalry may be dead.


    I am going to kiss my truck in a bit.

    If they (the "D"'s) STILL try to force it through....
