Are Democrat Congressional Leaders Running Scared of Public Opinion

[At_Last_2009]

I think they are running very scared of public opinion. And they Should...

If they had any clue to reality they should be. Unfortunatly history has taught them that americans have a notorious short term memory come voting time. Anyone with such a poor job performance should expect to be fired.

Without a doubt! Pelosi even admitted it...
“There are a lot of Members who don’t want to vote for it”
Pelosi: No Decision on Procedure to Pass Health Care Bill - Roll Call

Let us pray for the redemption of those souls in Congress who are tormented by their cowardice that they dare not expose themselves to public scrutiny, risk their 'careers' and vote openly on the "Health Care Reform".

And let us pray for the redemption of those who, after the bill is passed into "law", are so tormented that they feel that they must go out and burn down the homes and offices of the errant public servants on the eve of its passing.

And let us pray for the redemption of all those first responders, who stood idly by, and let the fires burn completely.

And let us pray for the redemption of all those who watched, cheered, and danced gleefully, in the glow of the flames.

AMEN.

No. The leaders are too dense to be scared; deluded into a weird belief that if they get this passed all will be well.

It's the representatives who enjoy their job, want to be reelected, can read and see what's happening, and are in tune with their constituency that are petrified. Pelosi and Obama will throw them to the wolves for a short-sighted "victory" on Obamacare.
