How can we spike the ball in the end zone?
I want to say or do something that will rub it in; be a real sore winner, and let the teabaggers know that they LOST.

Ideas?

17. Apparently, as you will see from the numerous personal attacks
posted above, debate is not wished for. Only party line agreement. Those who disagree will be attacked. Take care Sebastian.

5. Maybe if you just say that Pres. Barack Hussein Obama's likeness will probably be carved
into rushmore, that might piss them off. :rofl:

8. Nothing to spike. I think it's more of a hang on to the ball and hope
for the best.

13. Isn't spiking the ball in the end zone a bit of overkill
...for something that would be better described as a "safety" rather than a "touchdown"?

(if you insist on a football metaphor, that is)

Without the mandates, I suppose you might have gotten away with calling it a "field goal"

15. Let me be disgustingly gloating--
Much props to Nancy Pelosi--who did a lot of the work that made this possible:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmT2X0ju3Vg&feature=player_embedded

She will definitely be see as a hero about this.

By the by--this is bigger than anything that ever happened under Newt Gingrich, recently heard complaining that the Civil Rights bill killed the Democratic party--yep-- (But totally as a sidebar--wasn't the Civil Rights struggle entirely correct? Is he saying it's better to be morally wrong than be politically correct? Is he implying that desegregation was wrong? Or any other presently unpopular thing that legally became our way of life? And doesn't he recognize that very few African-Americans see fit to vote his party--ever, because they are well aware of the southern strategy that inflames white hatred against any of their gains?

And this is supposedly a "history guy"?)

MEH!!!

Killed it so much it's in the majority today, and Nancy Pelosi will probably be Speaker of the House for a long time and do more in that office than he ever did. And will probably never be forced out by her own party--like Gingrich was. Just saying.

Gingrich can eat it.

20. How about this.
Sum it up.

As of today, having health care is no longer a privilege, it is a right.
