so what speaker of the house pelosi is doing, they re looking to pick off enough people to get them to the point where they can say, listen, we re all in this together. you voted for it before, you may have some hesitation, but if we don t do it now, we re going to have a worse outcome in the midterms. you re going to be more likely to lose than if you don t go with us now because the president s message is this, megyn, once we have it, we can sell it. we can t sell something that s not real to the american people. we can t tell them we ve helped you to protect you against the excess of the insurance industry if all we did was to make a bun p of bunch of noise. pelosi said you can t sell a pie if you haven t baked it. [laughter] megyn: okay. brad, you know, the problem, though, for her in making that sales pitch is what happened in new jersey, what happened in massachusetts and what happened in virginia. i mean, are there a lot of these moderate democrats looking at the tea leaves sa
special report. drop healthcare reform and start over from scratch? it s an idea that puts the speaker of the house in a nursery rhyme state of mind. start over. little teeny tiny. you can t do it. megyn: there there were some tea partyers poking fun at her statements. but the speaker says her party, the democrats and the tea partyers have something in common? really? stick around, monic monica crows some thoughts on that one. too hot for tv. the tale of the tape or should i say tapes in kelly s court. multiple sightings or we
shortly before. what happened to president obama s state of the union message which was jobs are our number one priority? we haven t heard anything about jobs wait a minute. he s in savannah today talking about jobs. the jobless rate in savannah is 10.something percent above the national average. the democratic house today is voting on the same bill the senate passed last week. whatever happened to when bush went into two wars we were told we could walk and chew gum at the same time, isn t that the case with obama? we can only talk about jobs? by the way, they re related. they re not separate issues. megyn: okay, here s my question. if that s true, why was it all health care for the past year? i wish we did. megyn: all right, leave it at that. what time s the radio show on? 10 to 1 eastern. megyn: he s going to stay up late. thank you, sir. thanks for having me. megyn: well, the record-setting earthquake in chile comes, obviously, just weeks after an
bill. and either ditch it altogether, or yes, but that s not just the right wing talking megyn: that s my point. it s right wing, independents and democrats. that s what i m saying. from the left people are upset about lack of public option, there are 30 senators today since the summit last week who have signed on to the public option. megyn: that makes no sense. if you have a majority of americans saying the federal government poses a threat to the right of americans, those are not people who want the public option. wait a minute, you re suggesting the public option is more government. no, it gives you greater options, it gives you greater opportunity. i d like to know what freedoms people think are being taken away. where in the bill of rights are you losing something based on what? what does obama or democrats done to take any right away from you? megyn: okay. on that note, e-mail me at kelly@foxnews.com and you can answer that question. now, topic number two. now we ve se
it? clearly, the democrats are this trouble, reconciliation s not the way to go, and it comes from the budget chairman who is a democrat. he himself is saying it s improper, i believe that s true. megyn: kent can conrad. and one, you know, to have conrad coming out and saying that, saying you can t because the rules don t allow it which is something that robert byrd has been saying all along, he s also a democrat saying you can t use it for health care reform, so what is the white house doing? well, i think they re dead set on making sure this happens and making sure that they get something out of this political exercise because they ve got so much political capital invested, megyn. you might be hearing one thing from kent conrad, but max baucus says it s possible to do it as long as you get the house to act first, and i think that s what both baucus and others want to see. they want to see some action in the house first, and they re going to try to use that as a leverage point. righ
