I think this is a good thing too.

I wonder why the 19 voted against it.

“I wonder why the 19 voted against it.”

I heard one argument that it would open the door to anti-trust litigation that would drive up costs.

That said, exempting one industry and not others does not seem prudent or fair to me.

The Democrats voted "for" simply because they don't believe it'll ever go into effect. They plan to get there first with Obamacare and burn the playing field to the ground.

The 19 Republicans who voted against it may have done so just to "pimp" the Democrats.

I don’t know why they voted against it either, but those 19 names could serve as House manager’s for Barry’s impeachment trial in the United States Senate.

Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI) is a natural for the Hyde role of chief inquisitor for the prosecution.

However, in order to gain a conviction on an impeachment charge which has been legally filed in the United States Senate, the Republicans would have to run the table on the U.S. Senate in the November elections; that is, pickup all 18 potential U.S. Senate seats without any loss to the Democrats.

Assuming all 59 Republicans vote for conviction, if the ‘King Coal’ Democrats vote in favor of conviction along with Joe Lieberman, then Barry’s fanny is toast in the U.S. Senate. The House impeachment manager’s would have one vote to spare under this scenario.

They (meaning the sitting United States Senators)would all do it(convict the Kenyan Usurper) just to make history as the first time that the United States Senate was able to convict and remove a sitting U.S. President from the Chief Executive’s Office.

Do you believe in Miracles?

[Onerom99]

Because they believe in Capitalism. The rest of this pathetic country and the morons in the house don’t.

If it’s such a good idea, why didn’t they try it out on Major League Baseball first?
