Reply #40: That was great! I was riveted.

I have a new-found respect for Rahm. I have never been a Rahm hater, but I like him even more now. If not for him and the President, strategizing and working his ass off, we would not have any kind of health care reform. Were deals made? You betcha, and as a result, the door that has been shut tight for all of our lives is now open. Our foot is wedged in that door and it cannot be closed again. In the coming years, we’ll amend the current health care bill and wedge that door open further until it stands wide open.

I loved it when the health care industry changed their mind about supporting the reform and started fighting it. The President fought back hard, and won. He beat the monstrous health care industry! Ha!

He’s a fighter and he’s a winner and I could not be more proud. So to all the media and liberal bloggers (Arianna and Jane among others) who whined the entire time that Obama was not leading, not engaged, and not kissing their asses . . . hahahahahahah. :*

Baucus and Nelson looked really bad. I loved that too.
