They aren’t accepting the Senate bill as written. They are adding language to address the implementation problem, which is why it has to go back to the Senate to be voted on.

Sandy... Merry Christmas to you and yours. Don't buy their propaganda... wait and see what the bill actually says and does. I promise you that you and no other Conservative will like it. If they change any wording in the bill... reid will have to call the Senate back into session as the changes will have to be approved by the Senate and House committee to reconcile and the entire Senate will have to vote on it... unless they just ignore the Constitution and do whatever they want to do... which is probably what they will do because both leadership teams from both parties are corrupt and spit on the Constitution whenever they have the opportunity. Also... it is impossible for businesses and the government to implement the software changes for two months. It will cost billions and estimated loss of revenue to Socialist Security is around 10 Billion. These FICA insurance premiums... they are not taxes... are the only source of funds for social security... so we will borrow more dollars from the chicoms to finance that which we do not have. Rush explained all of this is detail.

Here is the official Drudge Report link to cnn as to what happened.

http://www.cnn.com/2011/12/22/politics/congress-payroll-tax-cut/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

Washington (CNN) — A compromise measure to extend the payroll tax cut for two months comes before the House and Senate on Friday after Speaker John Boehner dropped his opposition under mounting pressure from the White House, congressional Democrats and fellow Republicans.

Both chambers will be asked to give unanimous consent, a procedural move that would allow the measure to pass even though most members will be home for the holidays.

If no one shows up to object in person, the plan originally worked out by the Senate and modified slightly Thursday to get the support of Boehner and House Republicans would go to President Barack Obama’s desk.

Obama has promised to sign it, as well as a separate appropriations bill to fund the government through September 2012, before heading off to Hawaii to join his family for the holidays.
