my noobishness in congressional procedure has really shown through today. I have been watching live on cnn.com for the last couple hours, but still don't really get how it all ties together. is it a done deal now just waiting on obama's signature? I am looking at the 219 o 212 vote, what exactly was that for?

No. The 219-212 vote was for passage of the bill. Now the GOP can, if they haven't already, move to send the bill back to committee. The bill doesn't actually go to the President until Congress is recessed. I'm sure the GOP is whipping Blue dogs over for their motion. I don't have it on, but I imagine there is a debate for the motion going on right now. This a stall tactic to whip votes.
 
The war is on now, the Dems had a chance to do the right thing, they choose 'be a party aparchik at the expense of americans'.

Bad move.

Tom Delay hates it, so I love it. The GOP hates it, so it must be good.

The bad move would have been to not get er done. Now the Dems know how to get it done with a minority party that just says no.

You guys apposed social security and medicare too. You'll get over it.

And Haraldo explained to Tom Delay how this is not unconstitutional. They have the right to deal with commerce. 20% of our GDP constitutes commerce.

Corporations need to be put back into check. Monopolies like bankers, wallstreet, home lenders, oil companies, energy companies, water,

And bring jobs back home.

And tax the rich more like we did before GW bush.

Next stop, reconsiliation.
 
A lot of poor people were just made poorer.

Now we challenge in court AND we file criminal charges against them when they are removed from office.

you will lose in court.

and what criminal charges?

i hate lunatic assertions like that. Absurd

The GOP is trying last ditch efforts to have a recount. I never watch Fox but I'm watching it now because its fun watching them cry about this bill.

The Dems are finally doing what we elected them to do. Not enough, but better than the GOP.

wow that is good analysis. they are doing something now about the abortion part.
 
Neo-Cons...would you now fight for the American people?

Will you now fight for Universal Healthcare?

Fight for the Public Option?

Its the only way to go.

What say you?
 
Has the GOP moved to amend the language of the bill yet? If they have, then it is over.

if you aren't watching it because you don't have TV, cnn has it live here, thats where im watching it:

CNN.com Live

I have a TV. It is tuned to Madhouse. I pretty well know the battle plan. The 219-212 vote tells me that the GOP can't whip the votes it needs to derail this thing. It is going to the Oval Office.
 
This is the end of the beginning.

It already was. This is like when Obama won and the GOP said that he would ruin the economy. News flash, the GOP already ruined the economy.

And under them, the Healthcare companies gouged us, just like the Oil companies did when they went up to $4 a gallon. But you don't know that???

In 10 years, 50% of us would not be able to afford healthcare if the Dems didn't reign them in. Do you really think you'd fall on the side of the insured? Ha! Well consider that there are a lot more of us than there are you, which is why the Dems are working for the masses, not the corporations. You call it socialism? Of course you do. :cuckoo:

Government should look out for the masses, and thats not socialism.
