Predictably, he blames everyone else for Obamacare’s problems:
Now, we’ve gotten pretty far down the road, but I have to admit, we’ve run into a bit of a buzz saw along the way. The long process of getting things done runs headlong into the special interests, their armies of lobbyists, and partisan politics aimed at exploiting fears […]

VIDEO: OBAMA CALLS REFORM “BUZZ SAW”
GALLUP: 55% WANT OBAMACARE STOPPED
It’s not just the voters of Massachusetts who want this farce to stop. Gallup shows that a majority of the electorate has had enough:
In the wake of Republican Scott Brown’s victory in Tuesday’s U.S. Senate election in Massachusetts, the majority of Americans (55%) favor Congress’ putting the brakes on its current healthcare reform efforts and […]
WEEKEND AT BARRY’S: THE DEMS PRETEND OBAMACARE IS STILL ALIVE
The behavior of the Democrats since Scott Brown became “the 41st vote� against Obamacare reminds me of “Weekend at Bernie’s,� the 1989 film in which a couple of guys try to convince everyone that a corpse is in fact still alive.
Congressional Democrats and the White House continue to negotiate with one another about the best […]
BOEHNER ON SCALED-BACK OBAMACARE: FUGGETABOUTIT
House and Senate Democrats are casting desperately about for a way to salvage something from the wreck of Obamacare, and one of their ideas involves “incremental� health care reform. But House Minority Leader John Boehner isn’t having any:
Listen, our goal is to stop this monstrosity … Scrap the bill, and start over. And start over […]
VIDEO: PELOSI SAYS HOUSE CAN’T PASS SENATE BILL
Some Dems had hoped to save Obamacare by having the House vote for the Senate bill, as is, thus avoiding the necessity of dealing with that inconvenient “41st vote.â€? However, it would appear that (even with the cooperation of flexible Democrats like Barney “Flipper” Frank) Madam Speaker can’t rustle up the votes. She puts it […]
VIDEO: DEAN VS. MATTHEWS ON MEANING OF BROWN VICTORY
Howard Dean thinks the Dems are not getting the big picture. He thinks they aren’t being radical enough on reform. And when Chris Matthews argued with him on that point, Dean told him: “There’s only one crazy person around here, and I may hold up a mirror and you might seen him.” Dean is right. These people are delusional, […]
BARNEY FRANK FLIP FLOPS ON OBAMACARE
I can’t believe I was stupid enough to believe Barney Frank when he said, on Tuesday night, that he couldn’t support any effort to thwart the will of the voters by passing Obamacare using procedural skullduggery. By Wednesday evening, he was on board with a process that would render the Massachusetts election meaningless.
Frank now favors […]
VIDEO: ANTHONY WEINER’S BLUNT WORDS FOR HIS DELUSIONAL DEMOCRAT COLLEAGUES
I’m beginning to like this Anthony Weiner guy. He’s a left-leaning Democrat from New York, but at least he heard yesterday’s wake-up call from Massachusetts. When a reporter asked him about a meeting in which the House “leadership” briefed the rank and file about health care negotiations with the White House, he delivered himself of the following:
They’re […]
VIDEO: DEMS & INDIES WANT OCARE STOPPED
This video (via johnny dollar’s place) shows a focus group of voters giving Obamacare the thumbs down. They also want an end to one-party rule and the Democrat spending orgy. These are NOT conservatives or Republicans. The group is comprised solely of Democrats and independents who voted for President Obama. It has to be seen to be believed:
OBAMACARE MEETS THE DEATH PANEL
Obamacare received some much-needed end-of-life-counseling from a variety of congressional Democrats after Scott Brown’s victory yesterday. Among the first to speak was VA Senator Jim Webb:
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 […]
