Its all about manuever...

McConnell, you fool!!! You should know Reid is not going to hold up his end of the bargain. And you gave him nearly a month to rationalize why they can’t have the vote before the State of the Union speech.
Wow, sounds like His Ladyship drove a real hard bargain. NOT! After the way Reid perverted the Senate rules and bribed Senate Dems, His Ladyship should not even be speaking to The Undertaker. We are at war. Time to stop making peace.
You can take this to the bank ... with Dirty Harry’s blessing Rahm the Destroyer has ‘enforcers’ (probably SEIU) placed near the families of every D senator. They will remain there until the vote goes down. These ‘guardians’ are sending pictures of the senator’s family members to the senator every hour or two as a reminder that bad things can happen without warning should the senator even think about placing the Constitution over the party come voting time.
Wow, a debt-limit vote that the MSM will refuse to report.
I smell victory./s
Jeff Sessions has just pointed out that they double counted the $500 billion “savings” from the Medicare cut. I called his office and gave him an attaboy!

Report: Bill would reduce senior care Medicare cuts approved by House may affect access to providers

A plan to slash more than $500 billion from future Medicare spending -- one of the biggest sources of funding for President Obama's proposed overhaul of the nation's health-care system -- would sharply reduce benefits for some senior citizens and could jeopardize access to care for millions of others, according to a government evaluation released Saturday.
The report, requested by House Republicans, found that Medicare cuts contained in the health package approved by the House on Nov. 7 are likely to prove so costly to hospitals and nursing homes that they could stop taking Medicare altogether.
AND if you are Retired Military on Tri Care for Life, which many Millions are, you are in for a nearly $5,000 NEW fee along with the increased premiums for the REDUCED Medicare benefits. bill would Introduce NEW nearly $5,000 fee to TRL TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search: http://economicspolitics.blogspot.com/2009/05/tricare-for-life-is-obama-trying-to.html This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf November 6, 2009 | Rep Buyer abd Rep McKeon
No one should trust Dirty Harry on anything he says he will do.
I don’t trust him regarding the day of the week or sunlight vs moonlight conditions.
He is a very polished liar.
I hope McConnell knows what he’s doing. I’m one who doesn’t blame him for the fix we’re in today. That can almost wholly be attributed to ignorance of a majority of Americans.
...a very interesting article / thread.
*blush*
I coulda been wrong on my previous posts.
Translation. He caved.
All the supposed Reid “concessions” involve style vs. substance.
If you believe this, you probably also believe the latest Talking Points about the wonderful benefits government healthcare is bringing your way.
I’d like to know why McConnell thinks Reid’s word is worth anything.
This is utterly pathetic and in keeping with the GOP way of doing business with the left.
Keep your aim trained on the 60-vote side and DON'T LET UP. DON'T BE DISTRACTED.
