So after the 48 hours of pushback on the public option ... after Rahm apparently wakes up and realizes there's no such thing as 'bipartisanship' when the other side doesn't want it ... after the Progressives stand up and say "Public Option or Else!" ... after we make the table for the White House to finish it up and send health care reform forward, what does Robert Gibbs do?
He pulls the tablecloth out and makes a mess of things. AGAIN.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said the administration remains committed to drawing Republican support for the bill, particularly in the Senate.
“I don't know why we would short-circuit that now,” Gibbs told reporters.
He said the White House believes some Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee “are still working in a constructive way to get reform through the Senate and ultimately to the president's desk.”
How many times do these guys need to get wedgies before they realize that the Republican's aren't man-hugging them but instead are trying to shove their balls through their noses?
And how many sopranos need to be made before they realize that when Republicans say they want Obama to fail THEY MEAN IT?!?!?!?!?
