Pelosi-Reid Health Care End Run?

Dick Morris: Pelosi and Reid Plot Secret Plan for Obamacare By: Dick Morris and Eileen McGann Highly informed sources on Capitol Hill have revealed to me details of the Democratic plan to sneak Obamacare through Congress, despite collapsing public approval for healthcare "reform" and disintegrating congressional support in the wake of Republican Scott Brown's victory in Massachusetts. President Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid all have agreed to the basic framework of the plan. Their plan is clever but can be stopped if opponents of radical healthcare reform act quickly and focus on a core group of 23 Democratic Congressman. If just a few of these 23 Democrats are "flipped" and decide to oppose the bill, the whole Obama-Pelosi-Reid stratagem falls apart. Here's what I learned top Democrats are planning to implement. Senate Democrats will go to the House with a two-part deal. Read the rest at Newsmax

Your Total is...

WASHINGTON (AP) - The health care bill headed for a vote in the House this week costs $1.2 trillion or more over a decade, according to numerous Democratic officials and figures contained in an analysis by congressional budget experts, far higher than the $900 billion cited by President Barack Obama as a price tag for his reform plan.While the Congressional Budget Office has put the cost of expanding coverage in the legislation at roughly $1 trillion, Democrats added billions more on higher spending for public health, a reinsurance program to hold down retiree health costs, payments for preventive services and more.

Pelosi Key To GOP Victory During Mid-Terms?

WASHINGTON -- Republicans are stepping up attacks on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, deciding that a major part of their 2010 electoral strategy will be linking Democratic candidates to her.The approach emerged last week when the National Republican Congressional Committee, the campaign arm of House Republicans, issued a statement saying it hopes Gen. Stanley McChrystal, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, puts Pelosi "in her place" on Afghan policy. The statement accused Pelosi, a California Democrat, of putting party politics ahead of national security in her cautious statements on expanding the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan.

More Rhetorical Hypocrisy From Queen Pelosi

What does a politician do, particularly a liberal democrat, when they have their backs up against the wall? They start making accusations and resort to ad hominem attacks.

And it's not the first time Queen Pelosi has resorted to these bully type tactics, reminiscent of the goose stepping Gestapo during World War II. Recall the CIA flap when she accused them of lying to Congress and has repeatedly called Republicans un-American when they don't agree with any democrat policies. Oh, let's not forget what she said to describe anti-war protesters criticized by war supporters as unpatriotic.

In a USA Today op-ed column, Pelosi and Hoyer made these accusations in regards to American citizens exercising their First Amendment rights at town halls opposing health care reform.

"These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views — but of the facts themselves. Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American. Drowning out the facts is how we failed at this task for decades," Pelosi said in the paper.

What facts would those be? Have you even read  HR 3200, Madame Speaker? Are you even aware that ACORN and SEIU thugs are coming to these town halls for the sole purpose of disrupting? Are you aware that one African American conservative was brutally beaten for no reason, other than exercising his Constitutional rights? He certainly wasn't carrying any swastika symbols.

So, it's like this: liberal protesters, like Code Pink and MoveOn, are exercising their rights. Republican and Conservative protesters are Nazi, un-American mobs. Sound about right, Mrs. Pelosi?
