Dems Snippy Over Health Care Stall as Obama Admits it May Not Happen

The legislators who autonomously cooked up and delivered the infamous few thousand page health care bill, are now asking for guidance from the President on how to proceed and getting downright snippy in the process. Apparently, they're angry with the lack of leadership on this issue from the White House. "Democratic senators are frustrated that the White House hasn’t done more to win over the public on health care reform and other aspects of its ambitious agenda — and angry that, in the wake of Scott Brown’s win in the Massachusetts Senate race, the White House hasn’t done more to chart a course for getting a health care bill to the president’s desk."

Ex-idiot comedian turned illegitimate junior senator, Al Franken. Yes, Stuart Smalley. (Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0210/32561.html). Franken's comments may have been spurred by the President's comments Thursday night which some saw as defeatist: "And it may be that ... if Congress decides we're not going to do it, even after all the facts are laid out, all the options are clear, then the American people can make a judgment as to whether this Congress has done the right thing for them or not," the president said. "And that's how democracy works. There will be elections coming up, and they'll be able to make a determination and register their concerns." Although Obama admits that the health care bill could potentially fail, he fails to realize that Americans have already "registered their concerns" with his health care bill, or at least, those Americans in Virgina, New Jersey and Massachusetts. Will he ever get this?
