The "nuclear" Option, Reconciliation, a simple majority vote....whatever you want to call it how can people justify bastardizing our political system like this. Health Care reform is HUGE, its 1/6th of our economy! Its too big for these shenanigans.
I'll start this with my outrage at the tactic and I want people who support it to go ahead and defend it. I want a debate on this.
This is not a debate on a need for healthcare or the actual bill itself, it is a debate on using Reconciliation.
