“Healthcare Summit a Fraud!” Yid With Lid notes that Congress Daily reported that Pelosi’s top aide admitted that Pres. Obama is merely acting as though he wants bipartisan support of a Dem healthcare bill when in reality the Democrats are preparing to ram a form of the current bill through based upon reconciliation (which requires only 51 votes) as opposed to the normal 60 votes (which, thanks to Scott Brown the Dems do not have). So in other words, the Dem plan is act nice while preparing to stab in back.
My first question is why would her aide admit something like this? Did he believe the quote was off the record? Was he liquored up? Will he deny this once he sobers up?
But beyond that, it rings true. We know Dems are conniving and will do anything to jam this unwanted legislation down our throats. Anybody with any sense knows that Obama is not sincere in his quest at bipartisanship over a healthcare bill. Bipartisanship to him means getting a few Republicans to do what he wants. He doesn’t want bipartisanship, he merely believes that the “moderates” who are deserting him in droves want him to seek bipartisanship. He’s like the little kid who is forced to say he is sorry through clenched teeth when he really isn’t.
The next phase of the devious plan, no doubt, would be for Dems to throw up their hands in mock disgust and let out a collective: “See, we tried bipartisanship and the Republicans just said ‘No’ so now we’ll just have to use ‘reconcilation’ to bypass ‘The Party of No.'” Of course their devious plan ignores that the American People currently support the Republicans and oppose the two versions of Democrat healthcare.
I’m thinking somebody is gonna lay the hit on this aide privately. Something like, “Look, dumbass, didn’t you get the memo? The Bamster was trying to trick idiotic moderates into believing that he was truly seeking bipartisan support of a healthcare bill. Why did you spill the beans that it was just a phony act?”
