Why can’t anyone just say it plainly? The Republican Party works for corporate America. These politicians are simply lobbyists with government titles. Every time President Obama looks to tame industry, carbon levels, Wall Street, health insurance companies, and lobbyists, the Republicans, come riding to their collective rescue. It has been proven over and over again that they are the mantle holder for the wealthiest Americans. Their recent president almost destroyed our Country. They have completely duped the Christian community into thinking that they are God’s choice, despite the clear indicators that they are not in any sense, good for this nation. There is only one answer; this Party clearly understands the power of propaganda. This is clearly seen in their control of media. I am appalled at the continued slandering of this President and his populace protecting agenda, they have the gall to claim the word “patriotic”. They called this Nation’s elected President a liar on National Television, what a neat sound bite for the Republican distortion based machine. Distortion rhymes with extortion by the way. Make no mistake about it, “We the people…” do not run this nation, a wise populace can not keep pandering to corporate America’s defiant and ultimate inner circle obstructionist’s; The Republican Party. American’s listen to me! That is their job, they are paid handsomely, oh, by our tax dollar’s too!, to do what they do, to protect the nations elite, the untouchables.(The number one example is the Dick Cheney and Haliburton affair, the love is deep and unquestionable!) 97% of us are sacrificed for the peak dwelling 3%. Check the French Revolution! Stop being powerless! Get behind your President, stop listening to the “fear” mongers, tune them out, this man means to protect us, the 97%, you and I, the non-privileged. Republican’s and corporate America have never been so hard pressed to create “fear” and “illusions”.

WAKE UP AMERICA, vastly intelligent and honest world leaders are far and few between.

Those who have skeletons in their closets will vote yes, they don’t want to be another Massa. Unfortunately, all of their oversized closets are filled with skeletons.

Blue Dogs will continue to yelp, then lie down for their scraps.

In the article you state:

“Conversely, there are approximately 16 “no” votes that could easily switch the other way.”

Implying you suspect there are 16 members who could vote yes, that voted no last time. I’ve watched for any such indicators, and haven’t seen any. Can you name those 16?? Or even one?

I’d advise that Michael McMahon (N.Y.) is only going to flip his vote if he hates being a member of the House. He’s in a seat that has been held by the GOP for years, and is well-regarded in the district. Flip-flopping on HC is the only possible way he’ll earn Staten Island voters’ wrath and be voted out of office.

Nancy doesn’t have anything she can threaten him with that beats the fact that he would never be able to show his face again around here if we see him bow to that witch.

All of the “swing” votes are either completely naive or utter mo-rons. There will be no “reconciliation” if the House passes the Senate bill. What incentive does the Senate have in making changes to a bill they already passed? They will have won, and Obama will sign it into law within minutes of passage.

“Presumably, if the House were to pass the Senate version, a compromise version (essentially, President Obama’s plan) would then be adopted by a simple majority vote in both chambers before the president signs the bill into law.”——What? This is the first I’ve heard this. Are you talking about reconciliation? If so, that’s quite different from “simple majority vote.” You need to elaborate on this point.

Sounds like Massa could have possibly been one of those “swing” votes.

“The president hopes the bill will by law by March 18.”

So, is he now planning a March 19 speech in support of his new old new #1 priority J-O-B-S?
