1. Ok...was this really that unexpected? Is it time to just lay down and
die? I thought we were all anticipating this from the Blue Dogs.

2. A talking head on MSNBC kind of predicted this, and said the Dems weren't
really expecting either to pass -- rather to use it as a step to get a more serious discussion going.

Don't know if that's true, or how it would help, but just passing it along. When she said it I thought "I hope she's SO wrong about the vote". She wasn't. :(

6. I think we were all kinda hoping that they would do the right thing -
but I'm truly not surprised it played out as predicted.

11. Well we are applauding the democrats who helped to fulfill
his fucking prediction. Good on them :woohoo: :woohoo:

Whatever BillO and the crazy repubs want the democrats should deliver. Why ever would I have a problem with the democrats who sell out and help republican causes? I have something that resembles a fainting couch. The Best Democracy That Money Can Buy.

3. i'm out ... fuck 'em. They insist on not recognizing our money and effort and only the corp
contributions can continue when WE are fucking broke. So, yeah, until I see them do something for us, fuck 'em all.

5. Hey.....we still got the House......and primaries!!! Hang in there and
let's see how this plays out. I think it's way too early to give it up. If there is no public option AND mandates - I'm with you in that I will throw in the towel at that point.

10. Yes, we were all expecting the reduced expectations after we gained the House, Senate & White House.

12. What a fresh shit sandwich
it is. What a group of sorry fuckers. Do they not realize that the pukes would shove what they want down their throats and out their ass? Fuck them.

14. "Oh, and sorry there wasn't money in the budget for bread"
Reminds me of the old saying, "Life is like a shit sandwich. The more bread you have, the less shit you have to eat"
