The Dems can't muster an argument for their program. They don't agree themselves on much of it. How in the heck could they? The House Bill has yet to be written and all the little nooks and crannies reviewed, and ditto the Senate. Then the merging begins. And there sits Obama, acting like a coach having a temper tantrum....He just wants it done...no matter what the final version says.

Who reads 1000++++ pages anyhow? Not them. We could hold their feet to the fire, so to speak.

We should DEMAND that AFTER the 'whopperlooza bill' is combined, that WE the citizens, be able to see it and digest it along with BOTH House and Senate. We could along with them be prepared to follow along while they, IN A NOD to TRANSPARANCY, hear them discuss 5 pages every work day and we could comment on that.

Heck, everybody they know is for Obamacare!

Nadine, that reminds me of the famous liberal complaint about the 2000 election.

"I can't believe that #%^^&$()& (Bush) got elected!! Nobody I know voted for him!"

Their biggest argument seems to be, "Republicans don't have a better plan, so we have to pass this one or we're doomed, doomed, doomed".

Never once considering their plan may be the equivalent of opening a festering wounds where the patient goes from ill to terminal.
