   Maybe President Obama finally revealed to Kucinich that he is really an alien from another world and promised to take him to the mothership for his vote.

   And, could Kucinich take any longer to say “I am voting YES!”? Talk about beating around, under and behind the bush!

   I needed a star chart to follow his logic.

   I don’t think he got anything. I think they just showed him the ‘master plan’ that will lead to single payer.

   In other words, they showed their internal polling that indicated the costs would skyrocket and get so bad that the only option would be ‘single payer’.

   It’s too bad that they want to create a crisis to solve, but I’m fairly aware that in his mind, that’s what he was looking for. Other than that, I’m sure some money (taxpayer money) was promised in one way or another. They just love spending our money.

    I think you’re right. Kucinich’s only problem was that donkey-care wasn’t big enough, intrusive enough and expensive enough. Showing him all the goodies that’ll flow once “the door is kicked in” was probably all it took.

    I have come to the conclusion, reluctantly, that donkey-care is an inevitability. After all, when Hope-a-Dope, Nancy-n-Harry determine that literally anything goes to get it — lying, cheating, bending the laws until they break, bribes with taxpayer dollars — how can they not get it?

    4. Public lands to be declared inalienable. They shall be leased to

    Pelosi must really like the Senate abortion funding and lack of a concience clause for medical workers.

    Because if she allowed a new Stupak amendment, the amended Senate bill would pass.

    With an amended version, the Senate would have to vote again, if they actually wanted to follow Article I Section 7, and abortion language would seem to rule out reconciliation, which is supposedly only used on spending bills where the House and Senate had already approved a budget, but does anyone really think all 41 Republicans would hold? Snowe would be my bet, but I could see Voino or Collins.

    Then the defector, if running for election again (ie, not Voino) can vote against the final bill, 9 of 13 Demonrats defending seats this year can join them, and Biden can cast the 51st vote.

    But I think the witch Pelosi is really married to the idea of forcing tax payers and people paying insurance premiums to have their noses rubbed in the idea of helping murder babies.
