Pelosi: No Approvals For A Public Option
Friday, October 23, 2009 at 6:32AM And Nanna is all upset about this! "ARE YOU SERIOUS?"
There's more at Memeorandum but there's a lot more to this! There is no Constitutionality for it!
The Politico carries the story: Exclusive: Pelosi lacks votes for most sweeping public option
Speaker Nancy Pelosi counted votes Thursday night and determined she could not pass a “robust public option” — the most aggressive of the three forms of a public option House Democrats have been considering as part of a national overhaul of health care.
Pelosi's decision—coupled with a significant turn of events yesterday during a private White House meeting—points to an increasingly likely compromise for a “trigger” option for a government plan.
Administration officials have been telling POLITICO for weeks now that this the most likely compromise because it can probably satisfy liberals—albeit only reluctantly and after many vent frustration and some even threaten to walk away from the bill. [...]
And, what of Pelosi's response to the US Constitution? For one other repsonse we can always turn to the idiot Leahy: Patrick Leahy: (Asshat) No One Questions Our Authority To Impose Federal Insurance Mandate? WOW! Doug Powers: Reporter: ‘Is it Constitutional?’ Pelosi: ‘Are You Serious?’
[...] “Constitution schmonstitution”: [...]
Watch this video...
[...] In case you had any doubt that the majority of today’s politicians don’t give a rat’s rump about constitutionality, here’s is Nancy “Stretch” Pelosi being asked where the Constitution grants Congress the authority to enact an individual health insurance mandates. [...]
We don't need no constitution! We can legislate around that POS!
Just to let you folks know, here is someone else's choice of words because you all know mine.
[...] In no area of the Constitution will you find that “because we said so” is an acceptable legal justification for anything the government does, although most politicians in Washington seem to believe that to be the case. And it will be the case unless things change quickly and these pesky, ivory-tower floaters are finally flushed down the political toilet forever. [END]
AMEN! Vote every single Congress Critter out of office!! I have been preaching and teaching this VERY topic for almost 30 years now and it is about time people are at least asking these questions and demanding the PROPER answers!
No, Nanna, there is no Constitutionality for what YOU want to do and the same goes for every MORON that demands federal health care. There is none and legislating around the Constitution is...ILLEGAL.

This whole "are you serious" is a MAJOR deal here, woman!
Dan Riehl: Votes Not There: Netroots Mount Public Option Push
[...] I am receiving new information tonight that the House DOES NOT have 218 "solid' yes votes for health care reform with a Medicare +5% public option. Representative John Larson's claim earlier today that the House had the votes appear to have included at least 12, and as many as 15, Representatives who are "lean yes" votes. [...]
I guess the USC doesn't mean anything to these idiots.
DrewM at Ace: Latest Health Care Scam: State Based Opt Out From The Public Optiion
Democrats in the Senate are furiously trying to figure out how to include something called a 'public option' and still get 60 votes. The problem is, every time they think they get 2 more votes with a new idea, they lose 3. It's actually kind of fun watching Harry Reid shuffle back and forth trying to sweep the sea. [...]
Reid. Asshat. Pelosi. Asshat.
The Lid: Nancy Pelosi : "Constitutionality Is NOT A Serious Question"
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.
Well, damn. There it is. She doesn't believe in God, remember?
Ed at HA: Pelosi: Constitutionality of individual mandates not “serious” question
The Other McCain: Why Yes, Madame Speaker, We're As Serious as Lung Cancer
Dear Nancy Pelosi,
There was a time when political leaders understood the Constitution, and their oath to protect it. Those leaders worked on laws which fell within the scope of that document.
Your atrocious Congress, Madame Speaker, seems to understand "Constitutional" to be whatever befits your whims, emerges from the printer, garners the magic squiggle from the meat puppet at the other end of the Mall, and receives no legal challenge at the SCOTUS.
Please do us all a favor. Do not pass any more than the minimally required legislation, do not run for re-election, and do not waste any more public time. Instead, retire and work on your memoir, which I promise not to read.
Thanks,
Smitty
AMEN!
