1. Pelosi is the reason we got any form of HCR
So that would be stupid.

The President has not mobilized opinion in our favor. That's on him.

5. Careful there, it is essentially conventional wisdom here that HCR was somehow not progressive and a
right-winger's dream.

3. From me you will.
:shrug:

"Unacceptable" is not a negotiating position.

4. Pelosi has more balls than Obama. She won't back down.
She's one of the few heroes we have.

6. Not unless someone is interested in crippling the discourse. Our problem is that we NEED responsible
discourse. Despite certain oppressive factors, such as MSM, perhaps we have an opportunity to create responsible discourse now.

To me the word responsible implies honest committed action on the issues.

7. Fuck yes, the "She's DEAD to me!" threads will appear. There will be great wailing and ...
gnashing of little teeth. And it won't make a fucking bit of difference to the 300,000,000 Americans who don't post at DU.
