Breitbart <\/a>got the money quote in paragraph two.<\/p>\n

President Barack Obama said Wednesday there will be no vote on his proposed reforms of the US healthcare system before autumn, a setback that is costing him more political capital with each passing day. <\/p>\n

“This bill, even in the best-case scenario, will not be signed — we won’t even vote on it probably until the end of September or the middle of October,” he said in a session here to muster public support for the reforms. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think we can now say that this motley crew of malicious morons are officially just throwing shit against the wall.<\/p>\n

When a crisis happens competent people focus, amateurs panic and believe me this is starting to look like the gang that couldn\u2019t shoot straight or more aptly, the gang that couldn\u2019t count its balls twice and get the same number.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s the panic? I mean a real crisis not this made-up crap they keep trying to inflame.<\/p>\n

Maybe it\u2019s this most recent Wall Street Journal Poll<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the new poll, conducted July 24 to July 27, 42% called it a bad idea while 36% said it was a good idea.<\/p>\n

Among those with insurance, the proportion calling the plan a bad idea rose to 47% from 37%.<\/p>\n

The declining popularity of health-care overhaul appeared to be fueled by rising anxiety over the federal budget deficit and concerns over the role of government in determining personal medical decisions.<\/p>\n

Mr. Obama, in response, is shifting his pitch to consumer protection and new rules on insurance companies, part of a bid to win over Americans who already have coverage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is important because Obama bought off the AMA promising a bonus on Medicare reimbursements. He bought off the AARP by basically promising to make it an unregulated insurance company. And yet the folks are turning on this like Michael Vick on a dog that won\u2019t fight.<\/p>\n

Now Obama\u2019s lips were moving when he said October so it\u2019s difficult to tell if there is a grain of truth in it. However, if this is pushed back to October, it is dead.<\/p>\n

October begins the campaigning for real for the 2010 congressional elections. Any \u201cblue dog\u201d supporting it that late should be getting their resumes together. But that\u2019s not Barry and Rahm\u2019s real problem if this thing goes that late.<\/p>\n

The magic compromise that got the blue dogs in line earlier today was a promise of no mandatory government option. This may prove to be problematic. <\/p>\n

Over 80 socialists in the \u201cProgressive\u201d caucus signed a pledge in May promising that they would not support any healthcare legislation that did not include a robust mandatory government option.<\/p>\n

Historically, blue dogs can be bought off but those progressives are the true ideological socialists and far more difficult to deal with. This is largely because not only are they raging bat shit lunatics but they represent districts full of brain dead socialists.<\/p>\n

Of course everything I just wrote is already fully ensconced in the pinhead of Rahm Emanuel and we are all aware that this man is capable of almost anything.<\/p>\n
