The Hill:

Democrats are “overpromising” about the benefits of healthcare, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) said this morning.

The Missouri Democrat said her party has probably oversold the legislation that just became law.

“The side on which I’m on, that voted for the bill, probably is overpromising, [has] not been clear enough about the fact that this is going to be an incremental approach over time, [and] the benefits aren’t going to be felt by most Americans immediately,” McCaskill told MSNBC’s Mornine Joe.

Nevertheless, the Republicans have been over the top in demonizing the health bill, McCaskill said.

“Chicken little is running the Republican party right now, and when the sky doesn’t fall then all those independent voters out there go, ‘Gosh, they sure told us it was going to be terrible and this isn’t so bad,” she said.

“So the truth, as always, is somewhere in the middle.”

    McCaskill ran and won using Michael J. Fox’s endorsement and as a proponent of stem cell research.
    Another falsehood. Who is going to call her on it? The Main Street Media? I don’t think so. The Democrats lied about health care. Who is going to publicize it? The Main Street Media? I don’t think so. They are co-conspirators in the perpetration of fraud against the American people.

    HA! The ink isn’t even dry and they’re back-pedaling from this.

    You silly socialist little piglets, we (the People) will not fall for your deception and lies again. More so, we will make sure each of you pay for your crimes and subversion against the People and Constitution. Justice will be served, the American Way will be restored and respected. So get your affairs in line and your offices packed because your days in public service are numbered…. scratch that, you’ll be serving the public from a prison cell. Although, if you leave now, Castro is granting amnesty if you flee and defect…. before we catch you that is.

    hmmm….. denial as a life choice is as ugly as….well, McCaskill.

    • MinneSoCold

      OUCH! Burnt to a crisp with that one!

      Sully, I salute you! :beer: :beer: :beer:

      well Berlusconi managed that only top escort girls entered into his party as deputee, and said the very same thing on a opposition woman deputee… so the deduction is that only ugly and or senile men remarck “ugly” women

    • Sully

      Huh? One of you ugly frogs shot a dep-u-tee?

    • LechWalesa

      no exemple, therefore it ain’t a corollary

    “Overpromising”? Is that like Ed McMahon telling me I may just have won a million bucks?

    Claire McCaskill has never been the sharpest knife in the drawer to begin with. But, even a blind pig can find an acorn every now and then!

    “The side on which I’m on, that voted for the bill, probably is overpromising..”

    Just what the fuck is this butt ugly bitch saying here? Is she lamely trying to paw some dirt over the pile of shit the Dims have crapped out, or is she just that damn stupid? I can’t tell anymore about these Demon crats – pure fucking evil.

    Conservatives and even some republicans, have a real shot (note..the word ‘shot’ is not being used in a menacing way here)this November if we can get that limp wristed numbnuts Michael Steel out of office.

    • The Sentinel at the Gate

      Amen. But who could replace him and do an effective job? (And don’t say a trashcan, because I’ve already thought about that). The Repubs are running out of time to get a new face man out there and one with a pair of balls as well.

    Another reason why ugly people shouldn’t breed.
    Why is is that Liberals have all the ugly bitches?
    There are some I wouldn’t let my dog near. :beer:
