President Obama to Say Democrats Will Use Reconciliation to Pass Senate Health Care Reform Fix....

Posted on 03/02/2010 4:26:11 PM PST by RED SOUTH

White House officials tell ABC News that in his remarks tomorrow President Obama will suggest that if it is necessary, Democrats will use the controversial "reconciliation" rules requiring only 51 Senate votes to pass the "fix" to the Senate bill, as opposed to the 60 votes to stop a filibuster and proceed to a vote on a bill.

No surprise. Knew it would be an option if “bi-partisanship” could not be obtained.

Obama sure likes the word “I” alot. I think it stands for two-bit tin pot.

we need to remind every RAT in the House that there aren't enough $250K/yr jobs at the EPA for *all* of them so if they want to continue drawing a government paycheck they had better heed the will of their constituents.

If it can happen to Marsha Coakley,it can happen to...*any*....RAT.

Interesting that he made this decision right after that albino from SEIU came to the White House....what's his name...I forgot.

This is them playing a Saul Alinsky rule..."Get in their face"...when is what he is doing to the American People.

He's drawn his line in the sand....

No problem, in 4 years if things go right then the republicans can use the “nuclear option” to undo a whole lot of rat nonsense, that is if they have the guts (oh well it was a nice thought for about a minute).

Vote every one of the bastards who support this out of office when they come up for re-election. Time to make them pay for thumbing their noses at the will of the American people.

They wanna play, they’re gonna pay.

Obama is running scared and has to do as much damage to the US as he can. He hates America. Just wait until a pic is leaked of him wearing his crown. Go away boy wanna be king.

“Are we gonna have to go BACK to DC???”

Yes, I don’t think we can wait for 4/15. We are rapidly slipping into the abyss.

Not only that, but keep track of those who whored for it - individuals, corporations, and organizations - and make 'em howl. You can "vote" with your feet and your wallet.
