I like Sessions but he and the rest of them should be talking about the mandatory insurance part 24/7 right now. Because that’s what will piss people off.

Blah blah blah, Ill make a great speech but won’t ask for a reading of the bill because it will make me late for Christmas.

Cowards.

Can you imagine G. Washington making a great speech but then refusing to cross the Delaware because he wanted to be home for Christmas?

Everyone has known all along that the cost would send the deficit out of sight, and even if the dims are shown to have faulty math, it won’t make any difference to them. der Furhrer 0bama has decreed we will have healthscare!

They did demand the reading and they got it: Reid’s amendment. There was not another bill to read. That one was voted through by procedure without a reading because it didn’t exist.

Coburn forced the the reading of a 767-page single-payer amendment from Bernie Sanders. When did anything else get read in full? Linky please.

The Reid amendment of 300+ pages was read the other day. Coburn forced that reading also.

This is going to affect our kids in a big way. It is a chance to bring the young people over to our side. The twenty-somethings are the ones who will be paying the highest premiums and using the least healthcare. Jobs are scarce and most of them have student loans to pay. If they can't afford insurance they can go to jail. The GOP is missing a big opportunity to reach out to the college set we are always complaining about.

Too late. They have 60 votes and don't care about facts.

So first they "stipulate" that there are a half a trillion in abuse and fraud that can be eliminated, then they multiply by 2.

If there is a billion dollars a week in abuse and fraud, why not eliminate it NOW? Why wait until 2013?

These people are soooooo full of crap.
