Yeah, but if even one tea partier threw a mini marshmallow they'd be all over it saying it is a hostile crowd!

Will Stupak Be Silenced by Executive Order? [Daniel Foster]

There are whispers that the Majority are working on an executive order with Stupak-like language in an attempt to pacify pro-life Democrats.

03/20 12:10 PM

.......... Now- we're still working on just WHAT executive would do the ordering- if that means BHO or some other executive. HOWEVER- if they mess with it and allow any Stupak language in- they lose the 40 women proborts...

Think it out...how could Obama be asked to sign an executive order to insert something into a bill that isn't law?

See what I mean.

It looks like it's the managers amendment. Picking this up from twitter:

http://tinyurl.com/

RT @philipaklein: So much for 72 hours. RT @wonkroom: Waiting on the managers amendment to the reconciliation bill. CBO still scoring.

Per CSPAN:

A Manager's Amendment is a package of numerous individual amendments agreed to by both sides in advance.

The managers are the majority and the minority member who manage the debate on a bill for their side.

I'm going to have to take a break here for a little while too - I'm still in my PJ's and it's almost noon here!

Its gonna be addressed this time - otherwise, SCOTUS is opening the door for “Star Chamber”-like legislation to become the norm from here on out ...

I’ts being pointed out now in the Rules Committee, that the MA healthcare is bankrupting the state and if the Fed. Govt. adopts the same system, it will bankrupt the nation in 4 years.

Haha! The dems are squirming now - the Repubs have been talking about the inconvenient truth that Mass has comprehensive health care and that the costs are STILL going up!
