GOP stooges take note: you were used; you were used wittingly; you cooperated in your own stoogeship; you are here revealed as vain fools for the Obama administration.
The number needed is 216 after the sudden departure of Eric Massa and the unfilled seats of Murtha, Wexler and Abercrombie, and the sudden return of Nathan Deal.
The noise about insurance companies, about GOP intransigence and the evils of pre-existing conditions – all that will not change the whip count. What must happen is the rewriting of the Harry Reid bill so that it suits the Saint Stupak Dirty Dozen on abortion language and the Blue Dog posse all facing immediate, overwhelming, numbing re-elect campaigns if they vote for anything that looks like a deal. Indiana Jones faced easier adversaries routinely and found a way.
Hail to Mrs. Pelosi when she manages this miracle.
Mention that the White House more and more resembles a snake pit on board the Lusitania. Is that a periscope?
Where is an administration when a torpedo is a smart career move?
