Here we go again. Time for another Lets Make a Deal Watch in the Era of Hope of Change. As GOP Rep. Paul Ryan noted the other day at the House Budget Committee wreckonciliation shell hearing: We are not governing here today, we are greasing the skids.
Now, heres my rundown on the latest bribes and payoffs. GOP Sen. Tom Coburn is also on high alert. You keep watch, too, and send your additions:
*Nebraskas Hospital Helper. Via Rowan Scarborough at the Washington Times
Deny, deny, deny.
*Tennessees Hospital Helper. Via the Tennessean
Deny, deny, deny.
Tom Bevan notes the irony of Gordons little deal and a NASA slot rumor.
*North Dakotas Student Loan Loophole. With a sick stomach, Scott Johnson at Power Line reports
*The La Raza Lollilop. Open-borders congressional reps made a show of protesting the phony immigration enforcement provisions in Demcare. But purported opponents of the bill led by Illinois Democrat Rep. Luis Guiterrez are falling in line. Just as the congressional Hispanic Caucus announced it support of Demcare, Obama announced his vow of support for their new shamnesty push.
All they needed was a cheap and easy promise from Obama. Chumps.
*Water Wheeling & Dealing. IBD editorializes today
Update: Well, I never thought Id encourage you to go to Firedoglake, but there is some must-read reporting on the late-night negotiations over the abortion funding issue. And it isnt good:
{{{ House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has made a deal with Rep. Bart Stupak in order to secure his vote }}}
Allahpundit tries to decipher the deal and wonders:
Exit question: Is this all just lefty spin being fed to Firedoglake by peeved pro-choicers? Well find out at Stupaks presser tomorrow. ((( 11 a.m.! EST )))
Meanwhile, The Corners Robert Costa has fresh reports on late-night arm-twisting at Pelosis office
UPDATE: Tense times at the Capitol. Democrats are being called into the Speakers office at the eleventh hour for negotiations. Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D., Pa.) just arrived at 10:20 P.M. Regional Medicare reimbursement disparities appears to be the issue. Staffers are on their cell phones, telling their bosses to hustle in. Twice in the last 20 minutes, Speaker Pelosi has come into the lobby herself, looking for (maybe) arriving members. Its now 10:30 P.M.
In the midnight hour, they cried more, more more
