Thanks for the link. It’s amazing that something this important received so little attention during the legislative process.

You’re welcome. But do notice one thing about the clip. Baucus refers to all the amendments the GOP will be able to add. However, the only way the bill could pass was to short circuit ALL debate and amendments. Of course Baucus could not, at that time, have imagined the GOP would be allowed exactly zero amendments. But that’s how it ended up.

So while I totally agree w you that something of this magnitude should have received more scrutiny, we have only Reid and Pelosi, & of course Obama, to thank for it being otherwise.
