Fox just interviewed Snowe as she was entering the chamber, she claims she is STILL undecided with the vote scheduled for this afternoon, I guess Obama’s check hasn’t cleared yet...

I am almost of the mind that this thread needs a barf alert. We all know that they are going to pass this thing out of committee.
The morons in DC don’t yet get that American DOES NOT WANT THIS, which is why they need to be fired ASAP.
Find a real fiscal conservative now and get involved with their campaign in your local area. It is the only way we the people are going to change and stop what is being done to us by Washington DC.

If the committee goes into delay mode, it’s because Snowe is remaining NO; and Nelson and Lincoln will defect from the RATS; thus handing Baucus a defeat by 11-12 margin. RATS control the committee 13-10.
Any delay is good — it would mean that Baucus doesn’t have the votes to move this monstrosity forward.
Keep calling your senators. Don’t waste time with email - they don’t read them.

NOBODY stood with Max when he introduced this—wouldn’t it be cool to see NOBODY vote for it instead of the expected straight party line vote passing it?
Wouldn’t that throw YOU LIE!/HolyO {cue angelic chorus} for a loop? :-)

Insiders are betting that Snowe will vote NO - she will have more leverage moving forward if she opposes in committee. If Snowe votes yes in committee, RATS will take her for granted on the floor.

Half or more of the stuff Congress passes and presidents signs is stuff the American people do not want.
After they get elected, the citizenry become irrelevant and elections become obstacles. Most can rely on their incumbency to return them to their congressional seats.

Snowe job will vote yes
And that will give it the appearance of bi-partisan support Obama sorely needs.

RINO Snowe up—praying that she will do the right thing and vote NO!!
I also believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, but that’s neither here nor there...

Listening to Judge Napolitano on Fox and Friends this AM was interesting. He says there are a number of groups and individuals who will file lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of this bill. He claims states rights include health and safety issues and that these two issues are not for the feds to legislate....could get interesting.

Much more than half of the stuff Congress has passed and Presidents have signed in the past three generations has been outright un-Constitutional and illegal. Hitler won. Stalin won. Mao won.
At least it is the black soul of tyranny and the spirits of evil tyrants like those three that motivates our nation;s current Zombie Federal Government. There is a deep national psychological-sociological reason that Zombieland is the most popular movie of the day. Our national government is a Zombie.
