Democrats and their supporters are wrong again


Health care reform supporters protest at a "Big Insurance: Sick of It" rally September 22, 2009 in New York City. The protest is part of a national day of action with rallies across the country against the insurance industry.

To the Democrats, the ends justify the means to pass health care. Speaker Pelosi is widely rumored to have told an assembled K Street cognoscenti that she would sacrifice 30 Democratic House seats to get health care reform passed — and, of course, she said “We would do almost anything to pass a healthcare bill.”
The White House has convinced itself that it in the interest of all Democratic Members of Congress for ObamaCare to pass.But the reality is that ObamaCare is a political failure, and therefore it is not in the political interest of Members of Congress to pass ObamaCare.
But the entire MSM, the White House, the House and Senate Dem Leadership, the majority of the Democratic Coalition and most of the outside factions of the Democratic Party’s coalition is pumping the airwaves and blogosphere full of their latest pack of lies and disinformation:

1) reconciliation is back on the table;
2) the trillion dollar President is going to cut an abortion deal with Senator Casey of Pennsylvania;
3) Senator Snowe and Senator Collins “must be in play,” for a new vapor deal; and,
4) the all time favorite: something will pass.
Actually, a google search for the term “something will pass” turned up 1.75 million hits (really).
The “something will pass” crowd know nothing about health care politics, or about Senate procedure or rules.In fact, Speaker Pelosi used this line successfully on the newbie, dumber-than-a-box-of-rocks House members to get them to walk the plank, and vote for ObamaCare. She and her sacrificial lambs were warned about walking the plank, but the little baby lambs believed the crowd-that-has-never-been-correct-about-healthcare-politics.      For example, world-class Jonestown Kool-Aide brigade members like Jim Cooper of Tennessee announced that he was voting for health care reform to move the process forward and force the Senate to move. Uh, huh. It showed a reckless ignorance and politically dangerous disregard for reality. This, in fact is what the Dem Leadership has accelled at on health care: a dangerous disregard for political reality.
Or, how about several weeks ago when Senator Durbin was pounding the tables during Sunday morning talk shows about how the Democrats were going “to pass health care without the Republicans,” and the Democrats were “going to go it alone.”
Hey Senator Durbin, go ahead, knock yourself out.
They have been told repeatedly by pollster after pollster that they were committing political suicide. They continue anyway — remember this favorite: if we pass health care reform in the House, our polls will improve?
They are simply making it up as they go along, and they cannot be trusted to say any single thing that is accurate about health care politics. They are wrong now. They have been wrong all along. And their desperation is driving them to make up rationales that the MSM print as if they were carved on stone tablets and handed down from Mount Sinai.
The MSM do it all the time and never have learned their lesson. They can’t learn their lesson because they are so arrogant they can not conceive that anyone could be against health care reform — NO not THAT. They universally reject political reality because they are liberal mush-heads who buy the pablum being served by — pick one: Senator Reid, the Speaker or the White House.
The Dem establishment is more desperate than a junkie overdue for their next hit — and the boot-licking media loves to churn out the latest Dem fantasies on health care. Exhibit Z was the Reid Vapor Deal.
Just 100% fiction — Senator Reid dreaming in color — but it was reported as fact.
On health care reform, everyone for it has repeated and consistently and naively — in truly P-o-l-l-y-a-n-n-a fashion — have been wrong about everything.
It is the only consistent thing that has happened in this health care reform fiasco, the supporters have been wrong about everything. Wrong about the politics of health care reform, wrong about its cost, wrong about spending their political capital on health care, wrong about the public option, wrong about abortion being a non-factor, wrong about cutting Medicare, wrong about expanding Medicare, wrong about the Health Information Exchange, wrong, wrong and just plain wrong.
They are choking on their own propaganda right now because they have the Pelosi disease: they are blind ideologues who do not care about the political consequences of their irrational health care quest.

  1. For the record, I don’t actually care if somebody believes in stuff like astrology. But fair’s fair, and if we’re going to have to listen to liberal elites sneering about creationists, said elites can take the time to explain why they don’t sneer at astrology devotees:



    For those limited to text: somewhere around 30% of Democrats believe in a whole range of New Age stuff, explicitly including astrology. This is roughly double the number of Republicans also surveyed. Similar numbers and ratio for conservatives/liberals**.

    A quote for you, to roll this up:

    A touchstone to determine the actual worth of an “intellectual”- find out how he feels about astrology. - Robert Heinlein

    I would have added that quote attributed to G.K. Chesterton about the implications of ceasing to believe in God, but the actual quote is hard to pin down.


    *And before anybody starts muttering about enshrining beliefs into policy, kindly explain why the Democrats want to subsidize ‘alternative medicine’ in their health care rationing bill.

    **And as an aside, it’s a real pity that Pew didn’t poll for anti-vaccination sentiment.

    ***As if we needed more proof that Liberalism is just like a religion. Take a close look at how bruce and joec react to anything from the Bible. It is as if their religion is the polar opposite of Christianity.

  2. Between their AGW and their horoscopes, lieberals are the scariest bunch of potential terrorists that are out there.

    My sister sent me a horoscope once, and I said that there is no way it was correct. Because it said such nice (general) things about everybody, from Aries to whatever, and like I told her, I know a lot of a-holes (like Bruce) and it didn't say anybody were a-holes. If it had said that about at least ONE of the signs, I would have been led to believe it was true.

    These lieberals worship at the altar of Mother Earth and think that we humans should bow down to Earth and polar bears ... what a crock of shite.

  3. The Biggest thing this Administration is TOTALLY wrong about is holding those TERRORIST Trials in New York City and GIVING them Civilian Trials for ACT of War on OUR Civilian Population!

    These MURDERS were going to PLEAD GUILTY in Military Courts for their PARTS in this MASS Murder BUT with the HELP of this Administration and the ACLU will now make this a SHOW TRIAL that will last for MONTHS and MOST Importantly give these ASSHOLES a Platform to Preach their HATE all over the WORLD!

    Once these Trial get Started and the American People SEE whats HAPPENING I believe this Administration has Guarenteed itself ONE term.

    LIBS these ATTACKS on 9/11 also HIT Military Target which at that POINT should have MEANT MILITARY TRIALS. NO DOG and PONY Show. This MESS is a POLITICAL PAYBACK plane and SIMPLE and I cannot beleive Citizens will STAND for IT. SHAME ON THIS ADMINISTRATION to show such LITTLE respect for OUR DEAD and their FAMILIES!

  4. Administration has FOUND another way to KEEP Rural America SAFE! Bring Gitmo Terrorist to the HEARTLAND. I guess AMERICA is SAFER with them HERE than at GITMO.Terrorist MUST be Strong SWIMMERS to be able to SWIM that 90 miles to OUR shore. Administration saved them that Problem and is JUST going to fly them Here!

    Hello America this Administration could GIVE a CRAP about OUR Safty, ONLY Their IMAGE around the WORLD!

    Durbin Says 3000 JOBS but most will most likely be already HIRED Marshalls but I think he left that Part out!Was not that covered when they tried to move them to Standish!

    I would also not be surprized to see INFLUX of Middle Easterns in that area. Did not they have a PROBLEM with that in Europe, with TAKE over of a SECURED FACILITY with HOSTAGES taken.

    Please LIBS no CRAP about Fair Trials,a Fair Trial would have been taken care of when these MURDERS were Captured ,KIND of Like the Towers on 9/11 Do Not Remember VICTIMS having that Right!
