These Republicans who are now so irate over HCR...

[WI_DEM]

Obama, Reid and others did everything they could to get them involved in this process. But no they didn't want to give an inch. They thought that Lieberman and Nelson would do the dirty work for them (and in many ways they did). They got a watered down bill but it still isn't good enough for any of them to vote for and now they are on the floor crying about this bill and how it's going to add to the debt, etc and saying how they have been IGNORED!! Get off of it. The GOP has been nothing but an obstacle. I say F*CK 'EM ALL, even Olympia (You didn't kiss my ass enough) Snowe.

1. No.

Don't F*CK 'em. They might enjoy it. Run 'em out of town, instead.

2. It is all for show

It will add to the debt and it is no different than a govt mandated plan like single-payer, two things voters are very strongly against. They are working these voters up in order to get them to show up in 2010 and 2012.

If Republicans win then it pays off, if progressives win, it is time for the Republicans to move further left.
The elections of 2010 and 2012 are going to be seen as very important events in our nations history.

3. We need to develop a message like the Republicans thought they were elected to sit

on the sidelines and pout.
