Considering that rambling, jumbled, and restarting of sentences in mid sentence that you quoted, Ani, I was shocked and then disgusted when one of the guests on ”Reliable Sources” today was describing how well 0bama did at the republ retreat Friday. She said something to the effect, “The republicans are probably sorry they invited the president and no doubt forgot *how fast on his feet he is*. If that’s fast on your feet, that guest has very low standards for that skill.

It reminds me a little of an exchange between Sally Quinn and Ben Bradlee when Sally had a job interview with the man who would later become her husband. “Can you show me something you’ve written?” asked managing editor of the WP Bradlee. “I’ve never written anything,” admitted Quinn. Pause. “Well,” said Brandlee, “Nobody’s perfect.”

Arabella, the “stray dogs and cats” certainly explains the listing, in one version of the bill, of veterinarians as “health care givers.” I mentioned that to my vet, who treats my horses, and he said he wasn’t interested in taking on any two-legged patients.

He would have signed it anyway. He owes his election to the special interests who would have made million, or even billions, off the bill. Obama doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the average American, he just cares about himself and what he can get out of this gig.

o/t but worthy a shout out.

WOOT, Scott Brown starts with hiring the women!

“(CNN) – Senator-elect Scott Brown, R-Massachusetts, has turned to political veteran Gail Gitcho to oversee his communications operation.”

And, while we’re talking about Obama’s Freudian Slip, thinking that would make the opponents of his HI MED bill to change their mind and support the bill, knowing full well they will be keeping and adding not just stray cats and dogs, but rats and street kill to the bill, did everyone miss his apology for lying, accusing, name calling all the opponents of his HI MED bill? Sure flew by me.

And of course, now that I did that, it’s on the bottom, not here where you and I commented.

I think I need some of time…..brain cells not firing properly these days.

Great post Ani. Wow, this shows America Obama is the liar, not the Republicans or the Conservatives, Indes or the Dem’s who called to “Kill the Bill” or the TEA Party Moviement.

Isn’t it funny? Obama finds the words WE, not I, when he doesn’t want to take the blame for his directive. He says I when he wants to take credit for something good. OH, HE IS A WEASEL.

” For example, we said from the start that it was going to be important for us to be consistent in saying to people if you can have your — if you want to keep the health insurance you got, you can keep it, that you’re not going to have anybody getting in between you and your doctor in your decision making. And I think that some of the provisions that got snuck in might have violated that pledge.”

Thanks, Linda — actually, it’s Ani…

And yes that’s a great point – I hadn’t noticed his sudden use of the word WE. Good catch.

The polls on health care legislation have consistently shown that the public does not want this plan.
Americans, in all age groups, have marched in protest against it.
Voters, in three state elections, have rejected it.
Democrats are on the losing end, but they persist in putting us in jeopardy of losing our benefits.

Stray dogs and cats? What will Obama do with these stray dogs and cats? It’s a problem that must be addressed forthrightly.

First of all, PETA will be all over Obama’s ass. (And as much as I hate Obama, wishing the wrath of PETA to descend upon anyone is not a wish I make easily.)

First of all, where did these stray dogs and cats come from? Where are the provisos for free spay and neuter clinics. (For the stray dogs and cats, not for the humans).

Second of all, why did Obama obtain a pedigree dawg for a White House pet, when so many shelters offer animals for adoption. Could it be that President Obama did not meet the criteria for being the guardian of animal? We will never hear the facts, my friends.

And dare I say that Obama himself could lead the way by adopting some of these stray dogs and cats as pets.
