Mr. Tan-From-A-Can issues HCR fatwa: We will make bill "difficult, if not impossible, to pass"

Republicans also took to the airwaves to express opposition to the healthcare bill. "We're going to do everything we can to make it difficult for them, if not impossible, to pass the bill" John Boehner said on CNN's "State of the Union." Karl Rove warned on Fox News: "If they pass this thing, I think they lose the House of Representatives this fall".

Asked by Tom Brokaw on "Meet The Press" whether Republicans would be able to run against health care in the 2010 elections, Axelrod told Republicans to bring it on.

If the Republican Party wants to go out and say to that child who now has insurance or say to that small business that will get tax credits this year if he signs the bill to help their employees get health care. If they want to say to them, "You know what? We're actually gonna take that away from you. We don't think that's such a good idea." I say, let's have that fight. Make my day. I'm ready to have that. And every member of Congress ought to be willing to have that debate as well.

1. Someone needs to go after him with an orange juice squeezer.
He's a first-class pile of dung.

2. To me he's a functioning alcoholic who is on the verge of losing it. This
President is doing "too much at one time" and Boner can't keep up. His memory and his nerves are shot and he shoots his mouth off out of frustration. I think he's toast soon...

4. And some people at DU will be cheering Boner on too
Anyone who gives K'nich (that's how I pronounce is name) a pat on the head for voting no might as well do the same thing when Michelle Bachmann and Steve King vote the same way.

5. I have a good response....
Come on republicans kick yourself in the butt just try to "kill the bill".
Once the bill is law how will they ever tell real Americans that they can't have health care. These bunch of idiots are so full of s**t they don't know how to behave like a normal person.
