I’m speechless. Wish it didn’t end before the booing fellow said, “okay, than my opinion is” but I could easily fill in the blanks for him but it wouldn’t be lady like. I was duped but so was Greta and all those on FNC who gave him the forum to spout lies. They should be sent a copy. BTW I didn’t notice when this took place, did you?

Exactly, bankruptcy by individuals—we’ve got a system for that!! You and I both know people who have been through bankruptcy, and guess what, they are still alive, they even have new credit, homes, etc. Why are people crying about THAT?? We have a fix for THAT already!

You’d pay a tax (”fee”) for no insurance, but not sure if you can switch back at any time.

~~~~~~~~~ HUMOR BREAK ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bill Clinton, this week in a speech said:

...”Elsewhere in his remarks, he noted he was speaking on the night before the start of spring, “otherwise known to Al Gore as proof of global warming.” Of the current vice president, he said: “Vice President Biden, God bless his mouth.” ...

Democrats worried about Republicans’ motion to recommit on Stupak language

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/88167-democrats-worry-gop-motion-could-stop-healthcare?page=2#comments

“Democrats are worried about holding their members together on a GOP motion that could kill the healthcare bill.

Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) said House leaders are specifically concerned about a Republican motion to recommit that would contain only language on abortion that Stupak originally had wanted to include in the Senate bill.

The concern is based on the fear of GOP attack ads painting Democrats who vote against a motion to recommit that includes Stupak’s favored language on abortion as “flip-floppers” on the issue.

Sixty-eight Democrats voted for Stupak’s language in a November vote. They could be portrayed as flipping if they now voted against it.

‘They are concerned about it,’ Stupak said after his Sunday press conference.”

___________________________

If the Republicans do this, it has about a 10% chance of killing the bill, but if it doesn’t, at least in November it will knock out another dozen “pro-life” Democrats, after they are revealed to by lying hypocrites.

I noticed the US Airforce in that list. Are people actually suggesting NOT supporting the US military now?

No, the Senate isn't going to kill the bill. They are also not going to pass the reconcilliation language from the House. They are going to get their original bill over to Obama untouched and have him sign it.

No honor among thieves, don't cha know?

Take a look at Senate Budget Committee Ranking Member Judd Gregg’s statement tonight.

“Immediately after receiving the final reconciliation bill language, Senate Republican staff was ready and willing to meet with Senate Democratic staff and the Senate Parliamentarian to discuss the fact that the House reconciliation bill may be brought down by the 310(g) point of order in the Senate. Senate Democrats are mysteriously unavailable until after the House votes on the health care bill tonight. The Senate Democrats appear to be pushing off this meeting so that House Democrats will remain in the dark about what is likely to happen to the reconciliation bill on which many have staked their careers in Congress. House Democrats should be alarmed by this latest development, since the survival of the reconciliation bill is clearly at risk in the Senate.
