Orin Hatch is on the floor telling Bush the SCHIP bill is "classic compromise."
He's calling it "good legislation." He's admonishing Bush for threatening to veto.

Up is down, dogs and cats are living in harmony. Wow.

1. I would like to think that hatch and other gopers
are sincere but I'm a tad skeptical. I think their motive is to reduce the incredible amount of blood letting they believe the bush administration will cause the republican party in 2008 as he walks out the door proudly holding the title of worst president ever.

4. You know what? I don't care about their motivation.
If it's going to help millions of real people in addition to just a handful of Republican blowhards, then we win.

6. Roger that teammate
Imagine a politician doing something they don't want to do because of public perception. I hope the bill passes, I hope bush vetoes it and I hope congress shoves it up his worthless ass.

2. I'm listening.
Orin: I dearly love my President, but in this case he is wrong.

OMG, hell is freezing over.

9. A Democratic bill? Or a democratic bill?
Using Republican terminology is not endearing.

10. Bush vetoes everything that isn't exactly what he wants
I think he considers everything that comes from this congress a democratic party bill. And a democrat bill is what * would call it.

13. Bob Casey is on the floor
Edited on Thu Sep-27-07 02:32 PM by alyce douglas
calling what * is doing is immoral if he vetos this bill. Also saying why do we have coverage and those kids cannot get health coverage, and why tax cuts are given to wealthy. Bob Casey was right.
