I saw an interview on Friday with a Democratic Senator in some leadership position, vowing to cancel the Senate's recess and force its members to stay to pass some sort of healthcare bill, simply on Wonderboy's orders.
The most amazing illustration of the Senator's misguided loyalty and sense of obligation was when he solemnly intoned that, if the Senate dared to go home without a healthcare bill's passage, voters would say they had shirked their responsibility and gone on vacation with work left to do.
What a crock!
By now, nearly every voter in America wants the opportunity to do two things before that bill is passed. One, they want to know if their Representatives and Senators understand it, let alone even actually know what's in it. Two, they want to express their profound concern over a bunch of politicians with practically no special knowledge of healthcare messing with 15% of the nation's economy, and the most sensitive personal services and decisions any Americans will ever make.
This Democrat has totally corrupted his values and sense of duty as a Senator. His duty is not to the president, or his party, but to his constituents. Most of whom, I am sure, are concerned about this piece of crap the Democratic Congress calls healthcare 'reform.'
Shame on him, and them, for worrying more about party unity and shoving some unread, omnibus legislation through by August, rather than going home and listening to voters on this important issue.

I would be mad as hell if I were a Democrat and my party tried to pass this garbage they call reform. I have to agree with you there...luckily I'm an Independent, so I expected to get screwed from day one when Obama took office.
Gregg-
I, too, am an independent- believe it or not.
I suspect quite a few middle-of-the-road, Reagan Democrats are fuming.
Only the far left socialists in the Democratic party can really be happy about this.
Sounds like you are an indepedent who did not feel any residual societal guilt and, thus, did not vote for Wonderboy.
