11/2010 won't come soon enough for me... we can only hope that the Gelding Old Party gets a testicle & spine implant before next year and takes back the Majority of the House and/or Senate or at least begins to take them back.

In a stunning vote, an amendment offered by Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) to protect the freedom of conscience and the rights of health care providers to refuse to perform abortion on demand if doing so is in violation their moral and religious convictions was defeated 41-56.

Unbelievable. Or not.

If someone does not; if we cannot stop this planned rush to pass over the tipping point, then this republic is over.

so i see two that passed in the senate or were defeated by the less than 60 votes so i guess the rats have invoked reconcilliation.....amazing what they will do to flush us down the toilet....

[CitizenM]

Not a surprise, but OMG the travesty of this.

In Nazi Germany, there were a number of instances when doctors refused to participate in immoral experiments during the Third Reich, cataloged by Robert Lifton in his book Nazi Doctors, and were NOT punished as a result.

Did any Republicans vote for this?

And what happened to the 60 votes needed for cloture? Or can you not filibuster a budget??

This is sheer insanity!

[Logical me]

Budget? So what's new. Communist King Obama cannot fail because no checks and balances.

[wastedyears]

Thank you, you traitorous dirtbags in the House and Senate.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

The passage of this bill is tantamount to signing the national death warrant.

Goodbye, land of my fathers, we loved you so.

Our esteemed congressional socialist democrats just flushed our futures, our children’s futures and our grandchildren’s futures right down the toilet. I understand not a single Republican voted for this in either the House or the Senate. It is seriously close to pitchfork time.

the additional $3.66 trillion Obama spending orgy

[cameraeye]

Was there any doubt of the outcome? And yet I feel that this is what the nation needs to wake up! Long live the Republic!

[Gunflint]

I can imagine hearing McConnell’s ‘stinging’ rebuke of the passed budget. Milquetoast.

If he really thinks this budget is a disaster, wouldn’t he proclaim it LOUDER? In front of cameras, grab attention, create havoc, delays, debate, persuade, jawbone, armtwist.

[bill1952]

They are going to bypass the 60 vote rule by changing this from a vote on a new budget to a simple reconciliation. Do you hear any complaining about that coup?

[The Great RJ]

The Democrat’s orgy of new spending and deficit will be their undoing. This budget virtually guarantees the US economy will continue to slip and will impose the most massive tax increases ever seen. Watch for double digit unemployment and inflation as a result of this budget and Porkulus. The only bright spot is the defeat of the the cap and trade “light switch tax”.

House of Representatives manual FEAR/PAIN/HUNGER are known motivators to rule a country and it’s people Hitler proved it.

That proves our country is already lost if we don’t stand up NOW.
