We will never have this chance again!! [View All]

Here's what really bugs me. We finally have the opportunity to get some real reform signed into law, but President Obama and the Dem Congress seem to be coddling the repubs on healthcare. HR 676 has been floating around the House for years now, we have a solid majority of Dems. So why can't they get it through? If anyone knows, please tell me because I am getting disgusted with the whole thing righ now.

Obama needs to stop worrying about pleasing everyone because that will never happen. He needs to get the Dem majorities behind this bill so they could get it to his desk for signing. He has the best chance we may ever see and if he doesn't take it we will be totally screwed. He has a real chance to make history, like FDR with Social Security, or LBJ with Medicare and Medicaid. They fought for those laws and they won, we need a leader like that now or the chance will pass us by.

When the republicans were in charge they didn't care about bipartisanship, that is why we are in this mess we are in now. Its the Dems turn to run the show, but they are just twiddling their fingers and worrying about the next time they are up for election. That is the problem, they could care less about passing something worthwhile, to them getting reelected is more important than anything that will help the people of this country. So someone please tell me why our President and Dem leadership are playing games with such an important issue.
