Posted by: Cameron Wood at March 17, 2010 1:11 PMThis is a joke right?
(Maybe I need to get out more?)
Posted by: Shooter1001 at March 17, 2010 2:53 PMI hope this is a joke.
I can't predict what will happen with healthcare, but everytime I see someone talking or writing about it, the same phrase keeps repeating in my head:
This won't end well.

I truly fear what will happen next.
Posted by: WWWebb at March 17, 2010 5:37 PMOh yeah. Those dems are goin' to vote yes or they're going down.
After his 2012 immaculation The One has been invited to give his own address in 2013 on the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
Here's the link to the U.S. World News& World Report columnist Bedard's article, but first commenter John of XX's version of Obama's Gettysburg address wherein he honors the dems who went down for his great cause:
_________________________________________________
President Obama's Gettysburg Address
Two hundred and thirty-four years ago your fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. I have come to dedicate a government expansion bill, as a final solution for those who work all their lives that that nation might pay its bills. It is altogether fitting and proper that they should do this. Let them know their place.
But, in a larger sense, I cannot dedicate...I cannot consecrate...I cannot hallow this bill.
The brave children and health care advertising props, living and dead, who went all the way to Washington for my photo ops, have consecrated it, far above even my power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what your fathers said, but it can never forget what I have done. It is for us the ruling, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished bill which the health care props who spoke here have thus far so nobly promoted.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that from the jobless Democrats we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these Democrats shall not have lost their seats in vain—-that this nation, under me, shall always advance toward a healthier subjection-—and that government of the people, by the statists, for the Democrats, shall not perish from the earth for as long as China allows.

"If they get away with this, they will be emboldened."
And they won't be the only ones.
