Damn the torpedoes! Full steam ahead!
I am so sick of these chickensh*t congressman worried about their lovely offices and cute secretaries! We have the VOTES!! Use them!!

My God..how will we ever move this nation forward if we are worried about future elections? Jesus H. Chrissmas! Obama even told us that he would rather lose re-election than lose this Bill! Grow a pair for God sakes! Public option or nothing by God! The President needs to come out and tell them, "give me a bill to sign or I work to get you replaced."

Case dismissed! Just get the fuking bill passed! This is the future...not elections!

Fuk the Rethugs, fuk Cheney, fuk palin, fuk Beck, fuk Limpdik, fuk the wingnuts! Get this bill done!!


BTW...bring the troops home and damn the polls that say otherwise. We could save billions of dollars and pay for healthcare if we just stop the war(s).

2. Today's Congress exemplifies the difference between a politician and a statesman.
A Statesman looks ahead to the next generation. a politician can't see past the next election.

3. its now or never. We control congress and white house. We don't need
the republicans to do this so this is inexcusable if we fail at this one at this time.

10. The poll that says stay in
I read about a poll that said the President should stay the course or some such thing. I want it over...so does the majority of America. It's way past time.
