Big Dog In The Fight

3:01 am EST November 10th, 2009 | News | 7 Comments

President Clinton will be talking to senate Dems about health care reform. I’m pretty sure there will be lip biting and thumb pointing involved.

A notice obtained by CNN went out to Senate Democrats saying, ‘All Senators should be aware that former President Clinton will be making a presentation on Health Care at tomorrow’s caucus lunch. Senator Reid has requested that all Democratic Senators attend.’

We need a bill on the president’s desk by Christmas, at the very latest, New Years Eve.

    Why snark at Bill Clinton? Thumb pointing? How are you going to feel about Obama when people obsess with this sort of snotty BS about his mannerisms?

    Gallup poll proves public becoming more and more negative toward health care reform:

    Gallup: Number who’d tell their rep to vote for ObamaCare down 11 points since last month

    Americans have moved in a more negative direction on the basic issue of whether a new bill should be passed into law. Thirty-eight percent now say they would advise their member of Congress to vote against a new healthcare bill this year, while 29% would advise their member to vote for it, and about a third have no opinion. When those with no opinion are asked which way they lean, the verdict becomes 48% “against,” and 43% “for.” Both of these results are more negative than those from early October.

    Ugly.

    Yes, the way the right wing has demagogued this issue certainly is ugly.

    Indeed, Wilbur.

    I hope Bill will be able to corner Lieberman at some point. I’d love to be a fly on the wall during that conversation.

    Dude, I think you need to lighten up. OW was just joking around.

    For the billionth time, popularity does not define the worth or value of an idea. So keep on thinking that Fox News is the bestest network evah, and that people like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh are worthwhile human beings because they manage to wrangle millions of obedient followers who buy their books and consume their programming. Keep thinking that, Dennis. Because it demonstrates just how little perspective you really have, and just how superficial you really are.

    And Stephanie Meyer’s a better writer than William Faulkner, too!
