Quote of the Day

Do you know what a coward looks like?

“I’m not for using reconciliation for healthcare — I’m just not.” said Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.). “If we couldn’t get a bill through the Congress that had broad support, I said we shouldn’t have a bill.”

Apparently, it doesn’t matter if a majority of our elected officials want to reform our health care system. If no Republicans want to reform it, we should have no reform.

The biggest delusion Landrieu is suffering from is the idea that she’ll have an easier time winning reelection after health care reform fails.
