Let’s just give you the highlights of Jack Cafferty’s attack on Nancy Pelosi and the whole damn reconciliation process
Let’s just give you the highlights of Jack Cafferty’s attack on Nancy Pelosi and the whole damn reconciliation process:
Just when you think you’ve seen it all in Washington, along comes something like this… Politically speaking, this is beyond sleazy… In Nancy Pelosi’s world, accountability is a dirty word… Republicans are jumping all over this, rightfully so. They’re painting it as a way for Democrats to avoid taking responsibility, which is exactly what it is… We’re learning a lot more about lack of political guts… This reeks!
Uh-oh. No matter whether the bill goes up or down, Obama and the Democrats are going down.
Welcome to the dark side, Mr. Cafferty.

Robert Byrd now favors passing ObamaCare via reconciliation, but he opposed it back when the Clintons suggested it. Here’s what he said on the floor of the Senate back on April 5, 2001.
We’re a little shaky on the history on this one. How many centuries has Robert Byrd actually been in the Senate? How did he get along with Abraham Lincoln?
Byrd now favors passing ObamaCare via reconciliation, but he opposed it back when the Clintons suggested it. Here’s what he said on the floor of the Senate back on April 5, 2001:
The Democratic leadership pleaded with me at length to support the idea that the Clinton healthcare bill should be included in that year’s reconciliation package. They came to my office on the floor below. President Clinton got on the phone and called me also and pressed me to allow his massive health care bill to be insulated by reconciliation’s protection. He called me on the telephone.
I felt that changes as dramatic as the Clinton healthcare package, which would affect every man, woman and child in the United States, should be subject to scrutiny. I said, ‘Mr. President, I cannot in good conscience, turn my face the other way. That’s why we have a Senate, is to amend and to debate freely. And that health bill, important as it is, is so complex, so far reaching, that the people of this country need to know what’s in it. And moreover, Mr. President, we senators need to know what’s in it before we go there.
He accepted that, thanked me and we said goodbye. I could not, I would not, and I did not allow that package to be handled in such a cavalier manner. It was the threat of the use of the Byrd rule.
Reconciliation was never, never, never intended to be a shield, to be used as a shield for controversial legislation.
Maybe he’s changed his mind. Maybe he’s lost his mind. Maybe he’s just a confused old man. Take your choice.
President Obama had a brief lapse – yeah, let’s call it a lapse – toward the end of the ObamaCare Summit.

If malpractice reform is so important to the Republicans, he wondered, then why didn’t they do something about it when they ran the show in Washington, DC.
Obama: Medical malpractice has been mentioned. Now, look, let me be honest. This is something, historically, that Democrats have been more resistant to than Republicans. I will note that, when we had a Republican president and Republicans controlled the House and Republicans controlled the Senate, somehow it didn’t happen. And I’m surprised.
(Unknown): We needed 60 votes in the Senate, too, Mr. President.
Obama: Well, the — see… (LAUGHTER) See there?
Greatest President In History. And smartest darn professor of Constitutional Law Ever, too.

Flashback: Obama says dems should not pass healthcare with a simple majority
It’s a reconciliation nation and Barack Obama is the king.
We don’t know Maksim, but take a look at his site. Just our opinion, but we don’t think anyone on the internet can match his mad PhotoShop skills. He’s also a full blown pseudo-Communist, which is, of course, the best kind of Communist.

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has recovered from his election night depression and is now attacking anyone who continues to be as blind as he once was. That includes delusional Congressman Alan Grayson
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has recovered from his election night depression and is now attacking anyone who continues to be as blind as he once was.
That includes delusional Congressman Alan Grayson (D-NeverNeverLand), who says Democrats can still pass ObamaCare via the reconciliation maneuver.
“You know you can’t do it,” Matthews responds. “You’re pandering to the netroots right now. I know what you’re doing.”
Matthews is hilarious. He’s like a jilted lover who now hates everything about the woman he used to worship.
