"Yesterday morning USA Today ran an Op-Ed by Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer, which for ease of discussion I will attribute to Pelosi. The title is ‘Un-American’ attacks can’t derail health care debate, which frankly I find amusing since I don’t recall a debate on that or any other subject this year, actually happening on Capitol Hill. She bounces back and forth between oooohing and aaaahing about how awesome (butterflies, rainbows, unicorns, fairy dust) government takeover of your personal health care decisions would be, and berating freedom-loving Americans (bad conservatives! Flyover country! Hitler! Astroturf! Limbaugh! Goblins!) for strongly expressing their opinions to their elected representatives, and oppressively running into union thug fists with their faces.
She’s right about one thing:
Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American.

As it happens, “drowning out opposing views” is an area of expertise for Speaker Pelosi.

Obviously, the Democrats only want to hear their side of the debate over health care. Anyone disagreeing is un-American.

lol - it ain't just healthcare.....by abolishing the 'three day rule', the Democrats have become nearly dictorial. They don't need, want or even pretend to need or want the Republican position. They continue to forget that 59 million people DID NOT vote for Obama and his version of 'change'.

Even if I was a Democrat (obviously, I'm not) I think I would be concerned about the lack of debate. Do they believe they will be in power forever? Maybe. That old adage "do unto others" just might bite them in the ass big time come 2010.
