—Health bill is ‘too deeply flawed for me to support it’....

Right. WE’RE WATCHING and WILL RESPOND to such shenanigans.
That doesnt mean give up....keep the fire on Nelson and Lieberman and Snowe.
If two of the three stand firm, this turkey wont pass.

Exactly. DON’T give up!:

Exactly.
There are too large of differences between the two Bills to have it pass the House.
The Senate rejected the anti-Abortion amendment and the Public Option, both of which were necessary for Pelosi to get the necessary votes.
If either of them are not in the final Bill, it will not pass the House.
If they are put back in, it will not pass the Senate.
That is exactly what I believe.
Reid may get something out of the Senate, but it will never pass the final vote in the House without an anti-abortion amendment and the public option.
I think Reid is just throwing the hot potato back to Pelosi and put the blame on her for it failing the final vote.
