Going home for Christmas is not reason enough to sell out the American People. PERIOD

LOL So much for all the “this means war” rhetoric, just until the next holiday. LOL. Hilarious. It gives the French some cover, that’s for sure.

This isn't for final passage. This sends the monstrosity to conference. This vote has to take place.

And, I want to see who amongst the Socalist party will vote no, though they voted to end filibuster. Once it comes back, filibustering can begin anew.

We shall have peace in our Senate.

If the Democrats were so desparate to get home for Christmas they should have just adjourned and restarted the debate in January. The Neo-Whig party has buckled again.

Oh, I have a better plan but it involves ammunition and will get us all locked up.

Oops - nothing.

Join the Libertarians and Ron Paul Revolution. I do not expect Republicans to do anything right so it never bothers me. The Republicans are going down on the Titanic right along with Captain Obama and the crew of Democrats. They are just the passengers.

Walking out in unison before the first vote would have sent a stronger message than making filibuster threats and then skipping out early for a holiday break...
