This is why Rachel is so brilliant. She knows exactly how to cut through the bullshit and get to the heart of the matter.
I just hope President Obama and the rest to the Democrats get the opportunity to watch this. It might help them to realize that they are wasting both their time, and that of the American people.

ReplyDeleteI saw this and it WAS brilliant. The guest she had on right after that (can't remember his name) got a kick out of it.
I want pizza with the works!
Yes. brillant. Remember when some of us were deciding if we were for Obama or H Clinton? Clinton said health care had to be 100%; Obama said it was likely to be ALMOST 100% -- he was realistic and didn't lie to us (unlike Hillary -- remember sniper fire? which sure pales beside the Palin lies!). Sure, we'd all like 100%, until it gets down to the pepperoni, or pineapple.
ReplyDeleteI have huge confidence that Obama will pull the best possible deal out of this huge mess. Go President Obama!
CNN is reporting the the dems are going to go ahead without the reps. Woo Hoo!
ReplyDeleteLink is from Daily Kos but it won't let me post. Just broke. I sure hope this is true.

YES! YES! She nailed it!

There's a great Mark Fiore cartoon video on health care reform and it even mentions $carah & Toad. I tried to copy the link for the animation but it didn't work here. So, go to www.markfiore.com & click on Reform Madness. It's verrrry funny.

Thanks to Rachel for this very clear illustration of how the GOP does not want to cooperate with Obama on ANYTHING. He should stop trying to work with them, as they have vowed not to work with him, no matter what the costs to PEOPLE, and try to combine forces with the Democrats in passing legislation that benefits the American people.
ReplyDeleteMy 17 year old daughter wandered through the room while this was on last night, and now she fully understands what mom's been griping about for weeks.
ReplyDeleteThank you RACHEL!!!
Perfect! I am forwarding this to everyone I know!
ReplyDeleteAs always, Rachel is brilliant and spot on with her skit.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I think it may be too late to get any kind of health care reform bill passed anymore. President Obama clearly lacks the leadership skills necessary to get anything tough done. He may not have been the best person for the job. I worry about the fate of the Dems in 2012.
