It’s pretty sad that because of one person having a momentary lapse in judgment caught on tape, saying the word “macaca”, is why we have Obamacare, but he would have been in the Senate during that vote and would have been the 41st vote to block cloture to move forward on the bill.

We also have Olympia Snowe to thank for voting to let the bill out of committee, John Roberts for ruling the penalty a “tax”, Congressman Bart Stupak who caved to Obama by withdrawing his opposition to the bill. Unfortunately we live in a day when there are few patriots in public life and those who were in a position to stop the bill all failed when tested.
