Quick Hit: Who Is Stalling Health Care?
Friday, February 26, 2010 at 12:55PM Here is a little bit of talkback I had with someone on Digg.com today relating to the Health Care Debate
He Posted this bit, on http://digg.com/d31JyQt:
"It is extremely hard to turn your anger towards Obama or the Democratic party when, in fact, they are acutally doing something. It is much easier to attack the GOP because they are the ones not making sense and stalling things on purpose. Obama did one good thing at his state of the Union address. He made it well known that the opposition to his healthcare bill is stalling."
To which I replied:
"If you are mad at the stalling then be mad at Democrats, the Republicans don't even have to show up, they don't have the votes in Congress to stop anything. And this "summit" was bullshit. Obama is basically saying agree with us, or we'll do it anyway. And if this Health Plan is soo great why do they want Republicans to share the accolades? Or if this Health Plan is soo great why don't all the Dems agree and vote for it and then its over. They want to share the blame around if it goes bad, and it will. The Dems could have passed this last year with no problem, they had a super-majority."
I know I may be biased, as it is my site, but This Nerd is RIGHT! about this.

You are right! It's ridiculous that they continue to try to drag the GOP into their mess and complain that the GOP isn't doing this or that. They had, up until recently, a super-majority in the Senate and have a vast majority in the House. Yet, they do nothing. If the minority party has that much power that merely by existing they can prevent the Democrats from doing anything, then I'm glad I'm a part of such a powerful movement.
