And Hoyer just said (paraphrasing), “I think it’s really unfortunate that Barack Obama cannot come here and look through the lens of your camera and tell you that the bill being debated on the House is something he would support. Barack Obama said that he would support anything that improved on the affordability of whatever all the wonderful things are in Obamacare, and I can tell you he’s very disappointed he cannot come here and look through the lens of your camera and tell you that he supports this bill.”
Seriously? We’re gonna bring Obama into this and we’re gonna tell everybody that this is really bad, it’s really doubly bad because not even Obama can support it? (laughing) These guys still think they’re running the show. And I guess if you have run the show for 50 years, it’s hard in three months to start acting like losers. On the same token, it’s hard for our guys who’ve been losers all their lives to one day start acting like winners. I mean, that is a psychological adjustment, especially when you didn’t think you were gonna win and you might not have wanted to. “We won? We have to lead? Aw. Excrement.” Who knows.
