The problem is that it is the same as the Senate bill with some bad House provisions in it, and it does not start for 4 years after the taxes start.

And “under a trillion” is good for the country? Someone wake me when this nightmare is over.

So they hit the magic number under a Tril . . . and we all know when the whip comes down, it would never go over that.

And is that including all the new stuff Obama has put in?

I have about as much confidence in these numbers as the statements that this will improve health care and lower costs.

WOW, only another trillion for our kids to pay. Isn’t that neat? Slavery by debt so high it can never be repaid, it’s still slavery. Economic freedom is one of your first freedoms.

$940 Billion over 10 years...it’s a bargain! Any word on what all the Repubs are doing behind closed doors this a.m. I wish it was preparing for war but somehow I doubt it.

So about a billion for 6 years...meanwhile, for the next 4 years we will be paying into this with no benefit. And in the next decade will they have us uninsured for 4 years while they build up the fund again? Thought not. Lying democrats....but I'm being redundant.

The #’s were late in coming out. I wonder how much “creative acounting” was used after some arm twisting.

I was chaistized for being negative yesterday... but this is part of my prediction. I’ll take solace in being right as I see my country circle the bowl.

“HEads up- this must mean they’ll vote this weekend”

LATE Saturday NIGHT, when the media is too busy in DC’s Gay Bars to be paying much attention.

Another midnight vote.
