    Obama was conversing with leftist bloggers today. Here's the exchange:


    Isn't it sad that President Obama took more time in considering what breed of dog to get for a family pet than the time he is allowing Congress to consider this obscene, fascist National Health Care bill.

    New guy

    I am new here and am starting to wonder if I punched the right signup button. I thought I was signing up for a Baptist Christian message board. But that can't be because I see someone saying it is ok to kill people and stating that they are a democrat. Well, I'll just put my two cents in since I'm here. THOU SHALT NOT KILL(notice there is no except for convenience or because I think it's right in that line).The democratic platform supports the murder of babies(abortion) and other items I won't mention so I can try to stay on topic. Before you start calling me a republican, I will tell you I am not. I am a Christian minister that believes the word of God and try to support candidates that have morals and ethics. Hello everyone and God Bless You all!

    It looks like some strong-arm thuggery, zero style....

    [FONT=times new roman,times]After CBO chief Doug Elmendorf told Congress that passing Obamacare would add substantially to the federal deficit over the next ten years - unwelcome news for Obama who has watched Dems in Congress begin to get cold feet over his health care reform - the president "invited" (ordered?) Elmendorf to a meeting at the White House.

    Understand that the Congressional Budget Office[​IMG] is answerable to Congress, not the White House. But this didn't seem to matter to our Chicago Machine president who apparently had some words with the CBO chief about playing ball and not rocking the boat.

    A Wall Street Journal opinion piece explains:

    [/FONT]
    [FONT=times new roman,times]Writing on his blog after news of the meeting became public, Mr. Elmendorf diplomatically noted that "The President asked me and outside experts for our views about achieving cost savings in health reform." No doubt he did. But Mr. Elmendorf, a Democrat, will also have received the message that continuing apostasy will not be good for his future political career.

    As Douglas Holtz-Eakin, the Republican who ran CBO[​IMG] from 2003 to 2005, put it, "The only appearance could be that they're leaning on him. CBO was created for Congress, for independent analysis. The White House did him [Elmendorf] a terrible disservice." On second thought, perhaps we're being unfair to LBJ, whose method was a combination of muscle and flattery. Mr. Obama learned his methods in Chicago....
