Pelosi: Lawmakers Should Sacrifice Jobs for Health Care
« on: February 28, 2010, 06:27:33 PM »

Spork Alert!!   :evillaugh:
Quote
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi urged her colleagues to back a major overhaul of U.S. health care even if it threatens their political careers, a call to arms that underscores the issue's massive role in this election year.

Lawmakers sometimes must enact policies that, even if unpopular at the moment, will help the public, Pelosi said in an interview being broadcast Sunday the ABC News program "This Week."
"We're not here just to self-perpetuate our service in Congress," she said. "We're here to do the job for the American people.
FNC

Um, yeah , Nancy about that thing of doing the job of the AMERICAN PEOPLE, you aren't doing it. Those fighting you, Reid and Lord Zero are doing the work of the people.  You jackasses are doing your damnedest to ruin this country by trying to turn it into your idea of a socialist paradise.

Learn from history Socialism fails, it always fails.

She's not worried about her seat, the San Fransissico liberals and queers will send her back.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I wholeheartedly support their plan to try to enact socialist health scare.  Win or lose on the issue, they will lose their jobs in November and any damage they have caused until then can be reversed by the new Republican majorities.

Some leaders lead from the front...

...others push their subordinates from behind with a stick.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Just how many will actually listen to her and risk losing their seats?

I don't think there are that many.....they want their jobs or they never would have run in the first place. Those that don't ...are not running again.

No shit, that's real easy for her to say.

Isn't this like ADMITTING the American people DO NOT WANT THIS yet ..... our Ruling Class demand we have it?!

F*ckers.  I'm so pissed off about this stuff.  Jeezus.  They were elected to do a JOB .... DO IT!  Represent those who put you in office.  If they don't want it then get rid of it!

Hi,

You know for the life of me I cannot figure it out.  What do they fear more than the wrath of the voters?  They know the public is opposed to the health care bill.  When Hillary tried it they finally dropped it.  Now it is like they are more afraid of dropping the bill so what or who do they fear? 

They have sawed off their limb now, because they are toast for trying it and now are liked cornered animals and doing really stupid stuff.
