One of the websites — I believe HotAir - quoted Clyburn as saying “Easter” as the new deadline for the House vote.

This entire process since early last year should be made into a video reeking of ridicule over promises made and deadlines broken. Were this a GOP majority, they’d be laughed out of town by the MSM.

The Founding Fathers warned about the excesses of “democracy”, a system they loathed and did not mention in the Constitution. GWB spent his whole eight years going around extolling “democracy”. The failures of GWB have led us to this point. He was the precursor to Obama.

Democrats can’t even run their party much less run the country. Clowns like Pelosi couldn’t run a three goat rodeo. Clyburn’s never run anything except his mouth.

1934 was one of the big years for socialism. Others were 1958, 1964, 1974, 1992, and 2008. The American people are still determined to get something for nothing, and we can’t stop them.

At least one of the 4 has come out saying he is not a yes, not yet. Still undecided. The other three mqy not be either. GOP should call for a vote, NOW, put up or shut up, we have been talking about this for a year, vote now or go away!

I am equally as outraged by Clyburn saying on air, we are creating an “inalienable right” to health care. WHO DOES HE THINK THEY ARE?? I have news for them, Congress does not CREATE rights, they come from God, which is the meaning of inalienable. You democrats ARE NOT GOD!

A commitment broken is death to any congressman. All types of retribution.

I consider a "yea" commitment is "eternal death". A sin to God by allowing this sinful bill (which contains just that) to be passed.

I believe, though, that if they go against the "regime" and flip their vote, they will have a chance to redeem themselves before God as well as the chance to save their seat in the House come November.

I hope they do pass it; I want to see if America has any balls left, or if it simply slips silently away to sleep.

OK, 4 hours after you mentioned it - “Why arent they running in front of cameras? WHy arent they physically laying down in the hall? Why arent they screaming from the roof” —>

I just listened to the Senate Press Conference of Thune, Demint, Coburn and Wicker. At the 13:34 mark, Dr Coburn dropped the bombshell that the will go straight to Court if the Democrats try reconciliation without it first being passed into law. All four are former House Members.

“This was well-done. They’re telling the House dems, Reconciliation is dead and that they (the dems) will get stuck with the Senate bill.

Also, Thune’s a big guy. I didn’t realize he was that tall. Very Presidential looking, just saying.”

"Thune’s a big guy. I didn’t realize he was that tall. Very Presidential looking, just saying"

Looks are very deceiving!

Thune proved that he is a far left Democrap in RINO garb when he sabotaged the appointment of Bolton. There is no room for weaseling now.

At least one of the 4 has come out saying he is not a yes, not yet. Still undecided.

Also Carney (PA-10) seems to have gone from Undecided to No

That would make 205 No votes with 36-38 undecided. Yes votes would be around 188-190. But I think they they will get more Yes votes later. Kucinich might flip from No to Yes.

Hannity said that Altmire called Foxnews and told them to shut Hannity up and make him remove his name as a yes vote. He is undecided. He seemed very angry at Hannity but not sure why he called foxnews, this is his radio program and his website, not fox’s.

He should be mad at Clyburn.

Could that be investigated? Would be interesting?

Altmire is playing both sides, he will be a NO in the end but only after about Thursday when its very clear this thing is dead
