Nancy Pelosi let it be known she wouldn\u2019t be party to it. Former DNC head Howard Dean said it would be the worst thing that could happen to elected Democrats. Speaking to a bunch of union thugs in Maine, Dean fired a shot across Obama\u2019s bow, warning: &#8220;We all voted for change we an believe in. If we don\u2019t get it, we\u2019ll get some more change in 2010!&#8221; [Yee-argh!]<\/p>\n<p>Dean had stirred up the nutroots convention the day before,saying the public option is already watered down from the single-payer plan that liberals want. &#8220;We have already made our compromise,&#8221;Dean screamed to theselefty bloggers, these insane lunatics. &#8220;There will be no more compromises in this bill!&#8221; [Yee-argh!]<\/p>\n<p>Democrat strategists are appalled. An anonymous insider calls Dean\u2019s position &#8220;principled but destructive.&#8221; The strategist warns: &#8220;If health care goes down because of the public option, it\u2019s going to be the liberals that bring it down&#8230;the Democrats are doing it to themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well,that\u2019s great. No question about that.Better that the Democrats do it to themselvesinstead of doing it to us again. We\u2019ve been urging them to go &#8220;do themselves&#8221;for quite some time&#8230;good to see them finally get to it. We love seeing Democrats &#8220;do it&#8221; to themselves.<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush\u2019s Morning Update: Do ItAugust 21, 2009No video while Rush is broadcasting from LA.Listen to It!
