"I feel deeply responsible for making it harder" on Democrats in 2014, Obama says.



Laura Ingraham ‏@IngrahamAngle 1m

Obama may not realize this but he has just made a very compelling case for why govt is ill - suited for mandating health coverage.

Why the hell doesn't somebody interrupt him?

What he's doing is rude.


Where's that graphic that says something like, "I can't hear you because of how awesome I sound?"

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

The first people to come out against Obama's plan? Senate Democrats. They're not playing along with this newest disaster.

from democraticunderground: They wrote it. They knew what was in it. They knew some policies were going to get cancelled because they did not meet the ACA standards, but are acting like this is all coming as a big shock.

Blindsided by their own legislation? For real?

Unreal.

Don't mind the noise. I'm just breaking things.

1. I agree. Seems like somebody had their head in the wrong place.

NoOneMan (3,714 posts)

4. Or someone besides them wrote parts of the legislation

7. No excuse.
 
You really think they were unaware of this?

If they were, that's even worse.

It's their bill, fa chrissakes.

I wonder how many of them will become independents?  The lies are finally catching up with Obama, Pelosi, and Reid. I picture Pelosi and Reid retiring...from shame, though they will call it something else.
