Unconsciounable

“Ross recently bragged about holding the health care bill hostage for 10 days and killing single payer.”

I don’t get the drive to keep the blue dogs either. If they vote like Republicans, we gain nothing on policy. At least if it was a Republican voting that way, the Republicans would get some blame for that bad policy instead of calling it a Democratic failure. Kind of reminds me of how the democrats are being blamed for the weaknesses of the stimulus package when the worst of it was not progressive policy.

All these blue dogs should be primaried. The worst that would happen is a republic who has the balls to call himself one would get elected.

Ross and Cooper’s grossly distorting their records, now that ought to be a story real reporters could sink their teeth into.

With digital media, their mutually supportive lies would be easy to document. So why would they commit such easily documented frauds on their electorate and the general public? For money, sex, committee chairmanships, freedom from preliminary electoral contests, sex, clean diapers for their sexual escapades (assuming they have any or need them)? How bad do the lies have to be before the MSM admits they are not “contrasting opinions”, but lies?

The answers would interest the readers of any blog or general newspaper, especially those tens of millions desperate for better and more cost-effective insurance and health care. Have we any takers?

One of the things I enjoy most about Mike Ross is this:

Looks like that commercial property sale might get expensive…

Blue Dogs are Republicans with a D, they just have a slightly smaller helping of crazy on their plates. They are, however, ready to go back for seconds it they need to in order to please the Republicans with an R.

IMHO Republicans are less of an obstruction than are Blue Dogs.

Well, she did admit recently while yelling on the floor of the House that the government needs to keep it’s hands off her body, which was her way of saying, “I support abortion rights! The government has no right to tell me or anyone else what we women can and cannot do with our bodies!”. See?
