Ok folks let me translate what Harry Reid is hinting
the reform to the health care system is dead.

So Harry will not even have a vote this year.

Well Harry, my promise stands... no vote, no reform, no vote or money from me.

I am done.

Yes, I WILL CALL tomorrow and let my delegation know exactly this. After all THE PEOPLE of the united states don't matter any more.

GRRRRRRRR

:banghead:

Here goes the majority, but who needs a majority when they are unwilling to do the people's business.

1. If that's true, I'm right there with you
I'm resigning from the party. Period. I worked my ASS off to provide the majority to GET THIS DONE.
If they can'r do this, they ARE both the same.

3. Rachel is covering this
They need to go to reconciliation... and they need to strip Joe of all seniority.

4. I think Obama needs to get involved publicly on this issue
He needs a way to speak to the American people on this issue.

5. You are exactly right, Nadin
The Repubs are winning the healthcare debate...

and they haven't even participated in it.

The people have been swindled by Reid, Pelosi and the ConservaDems.

7. What needs to be allowed is a national referendum on national issues
like gay marriage, HCR, single payer, and Congress needs to act based on the referendum.

14. A majority in this country once supported slavery. And denying women the vote.

12. You do know that a solid democratic state just elected a republican right?
Good...

Perhaps this will get head out of ass... serious.

18. And the point is here?
Look for many here this is not raising alarm bells. Virginia is being Virginia... but this one to me is an alarm bell.

9. I agree! I worked my butt off to give them a majority and they
do nothing with it. Honestly, if a leader can't get things done when they have overwhelming control of the Sentate, House, and the White House they really are morons.

10. The bills that were heading down the pike looked awful anyway.
Perhaps it's for the best.

16. PLEASE do not go without letting the Dems know why.
On all levels if you can manage it.
This keeps up, there will be a hell of a lot of "Indpendents" and maybe even a sufficient number of Greens in the running next time.
And not Dinos/Rinos.

17. Oh trust me I have so many times it is not even funnuy
why I am calling again tomorrow.

I am so tired of the bullshit, and I don't expect the American people to actually get off their behinds though. This is what national strikes are for kiddies by the way.
