The Republicans also had a problem with all kinds of extraneous matter stuck in there that didn't belong.
Would you point out using the text of the bill what you're referring to?

Underlined text in a post generally denotes a hyperlink.
Now re-read my post with that in mind.

So you expect everyone to do their homework on this and get back to you in a few minutes?
Figure the odds on that.
Instead why don't you explain why this is necessary during these tough economic times?
These WTC folks already have health coverage.

Nothing being passed by Congress right now is necessary during these tough economic times. It's all designed for sound bites during the election.
Politics As Usual In The Swamp.
DemocRATS shouldn't have Dishonestly tacked on things that are NOT for "first responders"...
peace...
Where's the Republican version of the bill with the offending sections removed? Where's there explanation of what changes should be made?
Cowards.
You lack an understanding of how the House works. The party not in power rarely introduces bills, most of the one they "introduce" are just for show.

So you're saying the Reps offer no alternative at all and are there only to impede, roadblock, and obstruct?
Ever see Weiner come on TV and get interviewed. Its fcukking fascinating. The guy never answers the questions. He changes the subject and does so in seamless fashion.......an ultra professional politician. He's also 100% certifiable phoney and not at all a mans man. The only male who could respect him would be a limpwrister. Guys like him outside the congressional chambers would get his ass slapped around real good.

There's that patented CON$ervative dumb act. The link was already posted in the very post you replied to.The Republicans also had a problem with all kinds of extraneous matter stuck in there that didn't belong.

Kind of hard to do that because it's still in committee. It hasn't been completely written yet. This was just a vote to go to an up or down vote.....wasn't it? It hasn't even gotten to the stage where they post it on the net yet.
Okay egg-head...post a link so we can read all of the extraneous matter we know is stuck in this piece of crap.
Well said, Mr Weiner. If you believe in something, vote yes. If you don't, vote no. But stop with the cowardly attempts to prevent bills from even being debated and voted on because you lack the fortitude to simply stand up and vote no.
Mr. Weiner is expressing the frustration felt by many Americans.
Bullshit.
Mr Weiner is expressing faux outrage over parliamentary procedures that he and his Democratic buddies set up. His purpose is to get elected.
This is apparent to anyone who isn't brain dead. Which is why you missed it.
The Republicans voted against the Americans out of work. The Republicans voted against aid for the people that responded during and after 9-11.
It it ain't rich, if is ain't gold, vote against it.
Ol' Rabid, ever put your life on the line for someone else? Naw, no profit in that is there. And why bother with the people that are ill from the effects of 9-11? After all, that is just history, and what have they done for us lately? Your morals and ethics are in clear view.
Hey Rockinhead. Who is going to pay so people can sit around on their ass and collect checks? You? You're probably one of them. WHy should the federal government pay employees of the city of NEw York? Do we not have enough obligations as it is that we need to add new ones?

The 9/11 attacks were a attack on the Federal Government. We as a country owe it to these responders who were simply trying to help others and ended up suffering for it.
The Islamoshit struck America on 9/11/2001.
The Federal Government took upon itself an obligation to assist the stricken including the First Responders who, day after day, toiled at Ground Zero in NYC breathing in toxins released from those extraordinary attacks and their aftermath.
What illness of any such Responder is not already covered by the programs and insurance put into effect by the Federal Government?
If someone can honestly identify such a hole in that coverage which denies one of those guys medical coverage and assistance, the there may be a genuine need for the new bill.
Assuming hypothetically that there is such a need, why do the Democratics insist on playing games in the introduction of the bill designed to address that need? As Rep. King correctly said in reply to the dishonest caterwauling of little wiener, the shame is on the Democratics.
