You gotta love the GOP political spin that is going on these past few days Gotta love a good last minute freakout - all their lying, all the Democratic incompetence, hasn't stopped what the people elected their President, Congress and Senate to DO.

Quote:
It is official: the President and the Speaker have decided to ram a health care bill through the Congress this week.
Well, no, not hardly.

Quote:
The first step for this newly introduced 2,300 page bill is for it to be rushed through the Budget Committee this afternoon. As you saw if you clicked on the link to the bill, the legislation is moving so fast that it hasn't even been assigned a bill number yet.
Nonsense. The House is voting on the Senate bill that passed months ago with a supermajority. That bill been on the .gov website for months.

Quote:
While you can read this new bill here, it won't be worth your time. Why? Because these 2,300 pages aren't even the 2,300 pages that the President and Speaker Pelosi want us to vote on. That's right: the pages that they want us to vote on haven't even been completed yet.
That would be the reconciiation motions. Don't worry, that's been out, and the final isn't very big.

Sigh ... this is getting hysterical these last few days, watching these pols.
