Because of the Senates' !#$% inefficiency we get to live through another cycle of insane Townhalls

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

I just heard on Morning Joe that there are 50 scheduled. Thought the last round was fun? Wait till we get to see what the Stupak amendment dredges up! And it's back to culture wars and wedge issues!!!

I blame Harry Reid for being a bad general. The Senate bill should have been introduced, debated and passed by now.

I also blame Nancy Pelosi for catering to outside religious influences(she never heard of separation of church and state apparently)and setting us father back than we have been in this process.

1. Unless they vote on this before the X-mas break. I know,

what are the odds? That's why Obama and Clinton want the Senate to get this done ASAP.

We sure don't need more townhalls, but one can hope the crazies will be otherwise occupied with the holidays.

5. If they're accused of being at war with christmas,

protesting during the holiday season, it might distract them. Yanno - the 'use their own weapons against them' strategy.

2. You blame Harry Reid for the Senate doing what the Senate always does?

Really? I don't think any Senate leader could get this going faster.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

3. Predictable. How many deadlines have been missed at this point?

I'm tired of counting.

4. Oh, and now abortion is the center topic.

Bringing in the craziest of the crazed. This won't end well.

6. Ah geez

Are politicians now campaigning under the guise of 'townhall' meetings? Sure sounds like that to me.
Complete waste of time and resources. Bah!

7. I blame Max Baucus for dinging around for months trying to buy GOP support. And read this.
