They are pulling this crap today......

The Slaughter Solution is a plan by Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-NY), the Democratic chair of the powerful House Rules Committee and a key ally of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), to get the health care legislation through the House without an actual vote on the Senate-passed health care bill.

You see, Democratic leaders currently lack the votes needed to pass the Senate health care bill through the House. Under Slaughter’s scheme, Democratic leaders will overcome this problem by simply “deeming” the Senate bill passed in the House – without an actual vote by members of the House.

Thanks for your post re: "The Slaughter Solution" in #27, b4its2late. Here's more info from Republican Leader John Boehner's website:

The twisted scheme by which Democratic leaders plan to bend the rules to ram President Obama’s massive health care legislation through Congress now has a name: the Slaughter Solution.

Rush Limbaugh said about an hour ago that Pelosi came out of her "bat cave" and it appears (no confirmation yet) that the 'RATs are considering going the Slaughter Solution route.

FReepers, if THIS doesn't make you angry, nothing will! ObamaCare MUST BE STOPPED!
