G.O.P. Forces New House Vote on Package of Health Bill Changes
By DAVID M. HERSZENHORN and ROBERT PEAR
WASHINGTON — With the Senate working through an all-night session on a package of changes to the Democrats’ sweeping health care legislation, Republicans early on Thursday morning identified parliamentary problems with at least two provisions that will require the measure to be sent back to the House for yet another vote, once the Senate adopts it.
Senate Democrats had been hoping to defeat all of the amendments proposed by Republicans and to prevail on parliamentary challenges so that they could approve the measure and send it to President Obama for his signature. But the bill must comply with complex budget reconciliation rules, and Republicans identified some flaws.
Under the reconciliation rules, provisions in the bill must directly affect government spending or revenues.

This should be interesting.
And potentially very messy.
If it’s going back anyway- more senate changes will be incoming.
Hmm...wonder how many Democrats will vote ‘Yea’ this time ‘round.
Popcorn Please!!!
Oh ya and the guy with a headache!!!
bump
If the Dems...downplay this....I hope the GOP will remind them that this is a Big %&**** DEAL!!!!
You nailed it.
The original Senate version is already law.. This is a mistake. The GOP should let the Dems FULLY OWN this piece of crap.
The article said that there were two parliamentary problems with the bill, but it specified only one: something to do with Pell grants.
Anybody hear anything about what the other problem is?
Personally I think OB kept his transparency promise...He is showing us exactly what he is...in our face....doesn't care....we are just helping him expose...transparent...what is in this bill...alot of Americans did not know there was a provision to touch student loans.....Keep stirring...lets see what else comes up....eh?
| The GOP should let the Dems FULLY OWN this piece of crap. The Dems do OWN it. Rest assured that ObamaCare will fail miserably on its own merits. And what a joyous day it will be when a GOP Congress DE-FUNDS ObamaCare sometime after January 2011. In fact, the GOP has successfully made those corrupt, lying House Democrats OWN ObamaCare ONE MORE TIME ... a point the GOP will surely advertise in the 2010 election cycle. |
Time to accept the yoke of marxist slavery...We earned it by four decades of dithering inaction and useless talking.
Too many clear and precise warnings were ignored...Too many Republicans and decades of brainwashed serfs took ownership of those famous words: "Can't we all just get along?"
Hitler/Stalin/Tojo were all born just a few decades too early...Their dreams of global conquest would stand a good chance these days...
B. H. Obamao was born just a few decades too late...He'd have been squashed in the 50's.
So if it is law....then what does this mean? What the heck...I am a little confused....back and forth, back and forth....i think America is getting screwed.....he he
HERE WE GO AGAIN, Stupak can change his vote, if he was honest & he knows the deal was CRAP!
