CONYERS: ‘I’M GETTING TIRED OF SAVING OBAMA’S CAN
"He only won by five votes in the House, and this bill wasn't even anything to write home about," Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) said.

"The only way he could have got it through was that progressives held their nose," Conyers added.

"Holding hands out and beer on Friday nights in the White House and bowing down to every nutty, right-wing proposal about healthcare and saying on occasion the public option isn't all that important is doing a disservice to the Barack Obama that I first met, who was an ardent single-payer enthusiast himself," he said.
