2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: men ask nepotism questions regarding Luke Russert (in response to his ageist question to Pelosi) [View all]lalalu
(1,663 posts)15. She sat in congress for decades and did
absolutely nothing to reform healthcare. President Obama was the only change that got healthcare reform.
He had to drag these lazy democratic members of congress like Pelosi into helping. For decades these senior members sat back and never pushed the issue let alone get anything done. They didn't give a damn for years and it is pretty sad that some of you still believe in them.
Between rightwing republicans and support for lame democrats it has kept this country behind. I am really glad young democrats are questioning and demanding change. The democratic party needs a shake up.

You are wrong, Grasshopper. Pelosi has managed to bring all or most Dems together in the House

You didn't read my post. She DID get a public option passed. It was REID who did not.

you are lying which means that you don't think you can tell the truth and win the argument.
