Pelosi's Reform Plan

Posted by on Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 1:18 PM

Doesn't sound like she's giving up on getting a health care bill done, either:

You go through the gate. If the gate’s closed, you go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we’ll poll vault in. If that doesn’t work, we’ll parachute in. But we’re going to get health care reform passed for the American people.

Is "poll vault" supposed to be a joke?

@1: Ha. Probably just a typo. Good catch.

She can vault all the Polish people she wants, I still don't think she has the votes.

Too bad with each step you have to shed weight to get over; by the time they're dropping health care in from space, it'll be the equivalent of a matchbox payload.

That's not a plan. That's a super-safe representative from one of the most left-wing districts in America preening and posturing for her constituents.

All you need is 49 Senators and one VP.

Everything else is just excuses.

Math was never your subject, was it, Will?

Pelosi has a HUGE pussy. And she's using it. She's whoring herself out to the whims of the health insurance corporations who wrote this "health care reform".

I'm curious. Why does the Stranger let someone like Eli Sanders who is clearly NOT a journalist but a propagandist for the Democratic Party write this crap?
