Senate just came into session. Happily, Dingy Harry is sparing us any commentary early on this morning, as is McConnell. Debate goes until 12:10, at which time there is 30 minutes reserved for majority and minority leaders , then the vote. Will there be any more GOP intramural fireworks on the senate floor?
State can’t force vaccines.

All parents have to do is sign a religious exemption letter.
No specific requirements, just say “I object based on religious grounds”
Get letter notarized and school can’t say crap.
One problem solved.
fyi: looks like we have until dec 9 to get an opponent.
Liberals don’t affect closed primaries, and I can still vote in the primaries if I live in an Open primary state.
Anyway, my state is pretty safe red and I would rather vote my conscience than be a pawn of the liberals in the GOP.
You are the problem, not me and until you start to see that the GOP doesn’t WANT conservatives, nothing will change because the GOPe keeps putting up RINOS.
Your argument is invalid.
LOL Yawn...its all my fault and I would reject Reagan. No to both of those. I got Reagan and he was a man of his word.
Romney was NOT even close to Reagan, he was the ANTI-Reagan and even said so.
Just like during the election you falsely accuse us who stood our ground of wanting the perfect candidate. We don’t want the perfect candidate, we want a CONSERVATIVE, not a RINO like Romney. You rolled over for a loser, that isn’t my fault.
I have no issue with a divorced candidate that is your claim.
Read Romney’s actual record -he ran to the LEFT of Ted Kennedy and he GOVERNED to the LEFT.
I blame people like you who cave to the RINOS like Romney and make excuses while liberals and democrats are destroying the GOP.
Just thought i’d share this email I got back from Corkers office. Obamacare spending mandatory?
I wanted to take the opportunity to share my position during what has been a confusing debate on the Senate floor over the last few days. Like you, I am concerned about the negative effects the President’s health care reform law is having on our state, our country, and future generations. I have continued to oppose Obamacare at every turn, including efforts to repeal and defund it.
Today, I voted in support of advancing the House continuing resolution that would permanently defund Obamacare while funding the federal government. After the defunding provision in the bill was struck by an amendment that I opposed, I voted against passage of the amended bill. The bill, nonetheless, passed the Senate with only Democratic votes, and now moves back to the House. In the House, Republicans have the majority and can make other good policy changes that continue the fight against Obamacare. I hope the House can send something back to the Senate that will pass both chambers.
Some have suggested that it would be better to shut down the government rather than accept a bill that lacks the Obamacare defunding provision. But this would be self-defeating: a shutdown would not prevent Obamacare’s implementation because the funding for it is almost entirely mandatory, meaning that it occurs regardless of a shutdown. This tactic would only divert attention from the cascading reports of the very real consequences of the law for individuals, families and American businesses.
This doesn’t mean we say “game over.” It means we work toward actual solutions that have a possibility of becoming a reality. I look forward to the Senate taking up the bill again after the House improves it.
Sincerely,
Bob Corker
United States Senator
