C-SPAN 2 is carrying the Senate floor debate live this afternoon.

The Democrats control the floor right now. Earlier, Republican Senators Judd Gregg, Kit Bond, Jeff Sessions and David Vitter gave good speeches and dialogues on the budget-busting effects of ObamaCare.

Maria Cantwell is speaking now. Mary Landrieu is excpected to speak shortly.

The cloture vote is scheduled for 8 p.m. EST tonight.

They will shove this on us, we must shove it right back...and not down their throats. I am nearly apoplectic with these self-serving, soon to be unelected ‘officials’.

She's history. But she is so stuck on herself she's not going to see it coming.

Why would you believe anything the b!tch says? She's party first country second. Any that voted for this action today voted for the bill that will come out of this abomination.

“She’s a yes tonight but she’s making it very clear she will not support a public option....”

Won’t matter...after they break the bill up, they will go to the nuclear option and will only need 50 votes...

You’re assuming she’s telling the truth, even though her lips were clearly moving.....

We don’t WANT you to solve our medical problems. Get rid of your limits and controls on health care. Step OFF.

People are poor. Even the Bible says there will always be poor people. It is better to have money than not. Everyone has to be responsible for themselves. Poor people will have trouble getting life’s necessities. We need wealthy and middle class people to give to help the poor. We do not need Robin Hood Governments.

Yeah she is against it now, but will vote yes when they have to vote again. Dems are liars

Her out will be that she will vote "yes" to end debate while she will vote "no"on the bill.

How ‘bout armed tea parties?

Show me where the flash point is. Its nowhere to be found as of current.
This thing will pass and you know what will happen as a result? Nothing, crickets as the Government rolls over citizens liberties.

Here is the funny part. All these posters on FR citing armed rebellion? Once the first patriot comes out and even attempts "corrective action" based on the Constitution (and no, I'm not talking voting here), this board will explode with apologists claiming "Violence is not the answer, we need to vote them out, balh, blah, blah..

So, again, show me the flash point; the type that keyboard commando's wont and can't run away from.

Carl Levin is talking now and he is an crook. His state is falling part and all he cares about is socialism care. The Democrats are in a kamikaze missing to ruin themselves. There is general agreement that they will wreck themselves in the next election.

do you think that Ried /Pelosi would have brought it up for a cloture vote if the thought they didn’t have the votes?

Wealthy people have more money. Woe to the poor people, who do not have such wealth!!!

Woe to the hot people, who do not feel cold at this time!!

Woe to the people in the dark, who do not have light!

Someone’s got an ice cream. Someone else doesn’t have one! Woe! Woe!
