WASHINGTON – Under White House pressure to act swiftly, House and Senate Democratic leaders reached for agreement Friday on President Barack Obama's health care bill, sweetened suddenly by fresh billions for student aid and a sense that breakthroughs are at hand.

Now they’ll agree to anything just to get something. If they get anything passed, it will just grow and change from there. Eventually, they’ll get everything they want. KILL THE BILL.
No bias in that lede. :)
WTF does student aid have to do with health care? BYE BYE DEMS in 2010. Rinse and Repeat.
They will promise anything in the later “reconciliation” bill knowing that it will die. They want to sucker/provide cover for the Dims on the bubble into voting for the Senate bill so it can be signed into law as is.
They're counting on the far left base being happy enough with a Gov't takeover of student loans to go for the bill.
Up to now, the left has been incensed that the mandates are being enforced in the health care bill.
Can this new loan add-on sway enough votes for passage?
“House and Senate Democratic leaders reached for agreement Friday on President Barack Obama’s health care bill,”
What part of this bill did Obozo actually write?
So the prospect of spending even more makes them more optimistic... They are heroin addicts.
Could be wrong but I think the big push, must have, is to try to save Obama’s bacon. So far all he has to show for over one year in office is falling poll numbers and he needs something big to say I did this for his base. That goes along with the need for control.
so what’s really going on? are they having issues or not? i keep reading stories left and right that they have agreed on it or they dont. wtf, come on MSM, you’re pissing me off.
If they seriously think that passing this mess is going to save Obama’s bacon, they’re in for a big surprise as most of America doesn’t want it. Lunatics.
should be an interesting week next week
They're having some issues, otherwise they would have passed something already. The Congressional Democrats want Obama off their backs and their constituents to shut up. Passing something last year would have given Obama his trophy and it would have allowed at least some time to shore up the schisms back home. They've gone too far and they know it. Frankly, I am wondering if the Democrats are starting to delay in hopes that when (not if, but when) they lose seats in November they can pin the blame for failure on those "obstructionist" Republicans.

“KILL THE BILL”
do we need a kill bill 3?
That’s the AP for you, always finding a few seconds to come up for breath from servicing their democrat masters to try to spin the news for their benefit.
“Trying to reach agreement” — like haven’t they been doing it for the past year”? “Quick action”, don’t they always want quick action?
