You know you’re in trouble when members of your own party refuse to go along with you on an important piece of legislation.
Let me rephrase that: you would know unless you were a narcissist like Barack Hussein Obama who doesn’t care what anyone thinks of his ridiculous ideas.
At this point, Obama’s administration can best be described as a runaway train — everyone is jumping off.
House Democratic leader Steny Hoyer is open to the idea of leaving without voting on the health care bill before the House breaks for recess on July 31.
Other dems — along with Republicans in the House and Senate are voicing the same idea. Democrats and Republicans have their own concerns about the proposed new taxes and the cost of the bill adding to the deficit.
Dems are concerned that a proposed tax on employers may end up penalizing the employers without affecting the rising medical costs.
But Obama couldn’t care less about any of those concerns. His only concern is socializing medicine and making the citizens of this country dependent on big government like they are in Russia and Germany.
In other words, Obama knows this bill will destroy the economy (and health care as we know it) but he doesn’t care. He just wants the House and Senate to ‘Get it done’ regardless of how adversely it affects the economy or jobs.
North Dakota Democrat Earl Pomeroy said the health care reform bill “will not pass the House floor” as written.
This is shaping up to be the biggest defeat of Obama’s presidency.
