May the GOP fall on its sword in November.

[Union Yes]

Methinks their opposition to any meaningful HC reform is turning into near political suicide for the GOP. The GOP is making their party vulnerable.

A health care victory by the Dems now might re-invigorate voter interest. HC reform is popular even if people are sick of the debate dragging on and on. The people want a health care reform bill signed into law.

Polls that have been repeatedly posted here on DU have shown broad support on HC reform. Support for a strong Public Option has repeatedly and consistently hovered at or over 60% for the past several months.
Support drops for the Senate's version without the PO.


Go, on. Use the DU search function. There are about a gazillion threads posted on DU regarding HC polling. "Health care poll" returned 21,000 matches.

Opposing health care reform today is becoming political suicide, IMO.

Sen Mitch McConnell recently stated that the GOP would use the health care issue to defeat Dems in November if HCR is passed through reconciliation. McConnell stated that the GOP will make the repeal of health care reform a leading campaign issue in the GOP's war against the Dems in November.

I say, bring it on McConnell, you Fascist FUCK.

The GOP will commit political suicide with that campaign theme.

Bring it on!

Passing Health Care reform through reconciliation will be a great political victory for Obama and the Dem party.

Health Care Reform is popular. The people want it done now.

Passing Health Care Reform will be a political winner for our party in November.

Conservadems, put your nation and the will of the people ahead of your corporate allegiance, join the fucking cause for real health care reform and make history.

MAKE HISTORY!

Attach yourself to making history. History that made change for the better by reforming our broken health care system.

Conservadems, if you sign on and support HCR, history may hold you in the same light as FDR.

Is your corporate allegiance worth sacrificing that kind of legacy?

The legacy of a reformer or the legacy of a corporate puppet?

What's it gonna be conservadems?

I'm proud of our President for standing up and showing leadership and guts by calling for an up-or-down vote and his support for HCR through reconciliation.

To the Congress and Senate..

Right now, you(Reps&Sens) have the chance to make history. You have a chance to protect the weak, the sick, the elderly, the poor, and the American economy by reforming health care.

Attach yourself to history and create a legacy of being a real reformer by joining the cause and supporting health care reform through reconciliation.

To the GOP..

May you fall on your sword of Fascist greed in November.

1. the republicans are getting more disgusting every day

I agree with everything you said. The republicans are full of it. They know that if the Democrats pass health care reform it will be a major defeat for them. Eventually the Democrats can build on the health care and make it with a public option and maybe even go further than that and the republicans greatest fear is the people will love this and the Democrats will be rewarded by the voters.

Honestly how can a politician argue against good and decent health care for everyone? It doesn't compute and even the republicans aren't that stupid. Of course they are horrible enough to not want health care for everyone but they would never be blunt about it.

4. Yup I agree. The GOP sees HCR as a win for Dems and Obama.

Therefore the slimebags that make up the GOP feel they must oppose it. In order to bring down the President.

The GOP is pure slime.

:fistbump:

2. I'd rather help them, just to be sure.

Call me if you need help.

3. May ALL of them fall on their collective sword!

The GOP is no longer a party that is interested in governance.

5. now would be better

[Coyote_Bandit]

6. Ummmm......

I think we should drop the pretense and recognize that what we would like to call healthcare reform is nothing but frickin INSURANCE reform. A clusterfuck in the making. And in the long run just as likely to hurt Dems as Pukes.

We do have a sitting Dem President with majorities in the House and Senate. There is no acceptable reason why the sorry bastards couldn't have delivered something better. Fuck 'em.

7. Falling on one's sword...

...implies that one possesses Honor.

I would proffer that with all of the crap that they have pulled - the GOP has none.
