Tar. Meet feathers.
Can’t they bring in Biden to be the 60th vote?
No, Biden can only vote when there is a tie.
I want plan “D” for “dead” (the “health care” bill).
so what the obamunists and the demholes are saying amounts to: come be bipartisan and do it our way
An empty threat is no threat at all.
Plan B is a suicide pact for the Democrats. It would gurantee the end of Dem marjoities in both the house and senate, and make Obama a one term president.
The Republicans should call their bluff.
I don’t see where pelosi thinks she has the votes to pass the Senate bill.
Their plan does not include Republicans. They are just suckering the stupid RINOS in to a trap.
They ought to rename this the “democrats in permanent minority option.” Of course, I have to question what the heck the Republicans are thinking. Obama will simply get them to the table, lecture them as to how they should suppor the current bill, make a big show out of how he tried to work with the evil Republicans but they refused and then sigh and state how he had no choice but to use the “democrats in permanent minority” option.
“They are just suckering the stupid RINOS in to a trap.”
Even a RINO isn’t this stupid, so any RINOS who agree to anything here has been BOUGHT.
he is only for a tie breaker
True. Wonder how much the bribe is?
Hold out for Plan B. Let’s see them implement their threat against We the People. And then own it, hook line and sinker.
Tar and feathers ... one of the traditions we should resurrect.
I don’t know, but the market value of bribes has gone through the roof, of late ;-)
You think he's planning to hold fair elections? Chavez didn't let a little thing like losing the recall election stand in his way, he just declared himself the winner.
My Congresscommie...Castor of Tampa just said in a news conference the Senate is going to do a reconciliation.
