Here is video of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi today announcing she does not have the votes in the House to simply pass the Senate Health Care Bill, a tactic some on the Left have advocated as a way to get Government Health Care passed in spite of the will of the American People.
In the wake of Republican Scott Brown's win in Massachusetts, Pelosi just does not have the votes of skiddish Democrats to do that. With Brown's vote in the Senate, Republican now have 41 votes - enough to prevent Democrats from invoking cloture to pass final legislation. . . . (VIDEO)

I don't see the votes for it at this time."
Liberation Day. This is huge. Now I know how the French felt when they were Liberated. We owe it all to the Tea Party Patriots who took to the streets and confronted them Congratulstions and Tally Ho!
I only hope they will keep talking about healthcare from now til Easter-— hopefully, from now til November. That way they will keep their restless prying hands OFF of “the economy” and “jobs”, and let the market recover the only way it ever does recover: by letting 300 million free people go freely about their normal economic business.
If the Dems do nothing but drive around in circles til November, by that time 100% of voters will be disgusted enough to throw them out on their keisters. Every blessed one of them.
Boo Hoo!....FUNP!
I don’t, either. The DUmmies want them to break it into ‘small bills’ to push it through.
Nancy Pants has a 256-178 advantage over the Republicans. She has the votes, but those Dims realize that they’re all up for election in just over 10 months, and they realize after the Boston Massacre that will get decimated at the polls if they try to pass the Senate version outright.
They control the House, the Senate, and the White House. But they will blame Republicans for not being able to pass it.
Their problem isn’t us. Their problem is that even Democrats don’t want it.
Well if that’s true, thats the best news Ive heard today!
Yes, that would be nice. But with Obama’s meddling in the banks, the economy won’t recover.
