He was able to portray the Legislative Process of Health Care look like a lot of dirty sleazy smoke room dealing behind closed doors. Mary Landrew is being billed as "the Highest Paid Hooker ever". I shudder to mention the terrible things that are being said about Ben Nelson.<br /><br />If nancy Pelosi would have permitted the open televisiong of the Health Care Deliberations as President Obama wanted, we would have had Health Care last August.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-4858514000915909382010-01-07T16:41:27.733-08:002010-01-07T16:41:27.733-08:00Anon: Broadcasting is all well and good until doin...Anon: Broadcasting is all well and good until doing so would actually make passage of the bill more difficult, and then of course that's out the window. Welcome to politics. As for Nancy Pelosi, her behavior seems pretty much in line with every other Democratic Speaker of the House. Not sure why so many guys hate her so much. I mean, I have my theories of course.<br /><br />Oh, and next time, if you want to talk about something completely off-topic, at least come up with a better segue.

This is a Courageous Move. it is also the RIGHT move.<br /><br />Nancy just dissed him with a comment that "Well, that's just one of his Campaign Promises." in a most flippant manner. This is the same Nancy Pelosi who almost screwed up TARP with her off-the-cuff remarks.<br /><br />If Obama is serious about Healthcare, he'll demand an Apolgy from Nancy, who is more dangerous to Healthcare than a hundred Joe Wilsons could ever dream of being.<br /><br />If Healthcare goes down the Toilet, so should Nancy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15040772.post-55203247849551733662010-01-02T23:37:33.473-08:002010-01-02T23:37:33.473-08:00Awesome post, Vikki!

Also, I am in awe of your dad, who provided leadership profound enough to silence the right in your tree.

In the same breath, he'll tell you that he's set to make a nice pile of money doing energy retrofits for homes and businesses thanks to what? That's right, stimulus money.
